    If you dare, try to understand the riddle of this dark, gothic sounding song. It's trance-inducing beat and mystical lyrics expose a side of IYAM that makes one realize where these guys really come from musically.

    Story Behind the Song
    This song was really a challenge to the band. Several attempts had been made to record this song but it seemed that some force was working against the completion. Persistence prevailed and the song was successfully recorded, although the guys had to take a much deserved break afterwards. Check out this deep, mystical sounding tune and see if you can see why.

    Lyrics
    What is it that were looking for
    What was seen on the island shore
    Before the land of the dinosaur
    What's the universe hold in store
    In a time when our wounds are sore
    Do we know who runs the store
    When the world becomes a constant bore
    We'll arrive at the old ninth floor the

    People try to tell themselves they know what there doing
    But time has a way of showing them who they're fooling
    How much longer must we run through this darkness
    Will we hide, Will we hide, till the truth we harness
    What's the reason for this life that were living
    Is it true it's a school and the course is giving
    How do we choose what gets our devotion
    Chance controls nothing we're just going through the motions

    Going, going through the motions
    Were going, going through the motions
    Were just going, going through the motions
    Were going, going through the motions

    Were going, going through the motions
    Were going, going through the motions
    Were just going, going through the motions
    Were going, going through the motions

    A three dimensional parking place
    For the people of the human race
    An illusion of time and space
    When ourself meets face to face
    Can't we see that its a damn disgrace
    To ride the spiral of the endless chase
    Then disappear without a single trace
    Then we wind up at the old home base the

    People try to tell themselves they know what there doing
    But time has a way of showing them who they're fooling
    How much longer must we run through this darkness
    Will we hide, Will we hide, till the truth we harness
    What's the reason for this life that were living
    Is it true it's a school and the course is giving
    How do we choose what gets our devotion
    Chance controls nothing we're just going through the motions

    Going going through the motions
    Were going, going through the motions
    Were just going, going through the motions
    Were going, going through the motions
