Transient

Transient - Dark Tranquillity

Lyrics by：Anders Jivarp/Martin Brändström/Mikael Stanne/Johan Reinholdz

Composed by：Anders Jivarp/Martin Brändström/Mikael Stanne/Johan Reinholdz

To a fleeting wealth of knowledge

We stand now idly by

As it crashes and burns far from our grasp

The ages-old dichotomy

Between knowledge and belief

One a priori judgement at a time

In judgement defined

In our lifestyle apathy

So incapable

In only observation and reaction

We free ourselves of history

In opinion and false deception

What feats of our imagining

We now fail at the hands of our non-control

Control control

Control control

Confirmation biases

Let me go let me go

We now fail at the hands of our non-control

Control control

Control control

Resistant transient

Let me go let me go

Fall to the depths of desire's reach

At the hands of our own device

Understanding kept at arm's length

With opinions close to the chest

Hurtful cold beyond reproach

Resisting to be called

One form of denial at a time

Through judgement defined

In our lawless ignorance

So untouchable

No liberation or deduction

We feed into the narrative

In speculation and reification

You gather up the fallacies

We now fail at the hands of our non-control

Control control

Control control

Confirmation biases

Let me go let me go

We now fail at the hands of our non-control

Control control

Control control

Resistant transient

Let me go let me go let me go

One hit and you walk away

Irredeemable

In only observation and reaction

We free ourselves of history

In opinion and false deception

What feats of our imagining

We now fail at the hands of our non-control

Control control

Control control

Confirmation biases

Let me go let me go

We now fail at the hands of our non-control

Control control

Control control

Resistant transient

Let me go let me go let me go
