    Story Behind the Song
    Everything seemed banal and done before. With two hours per day of unassigned time, and nothing amusing to see elswhere, we pulled away from life and locked ourselves in a 5 x 8 foot practice room to try something else. This is what defined our sound and our message.

    Lyrics
    All for one, we'll step on all you who oppose culture
    All you who turn your backs on insects that severe oceans
    We rip the ties and move on, our dogma growing
    Your life is empty, a faceless drone just like them

    A quest to unchain ourselves from you
    Walls falling down around us soon
    I swear I felt your heart heat as I crushed
    All the life out of it
    Hatred will soothe this pain

    We enforce the laws that govern this world we have made
    We stand our two feet balanced, opposed to your fall
    I haven't forgotten my faults or reasons pending
    But I'll smile and wave, a child amassed with evil

    So this is how the world ends a
    Vacant landscape you've helped to create
    I can't feel, I can't see, my will is stemming out
    So I'll go and take you whether it's just or not

    We are the rain that erodes we are falling from overhead
    You will remain the black clouds that I will always be above

    Entrust us; beacon light into the depths of the unknown
    We leave to ensure that you can't hold back
    I've seen the twitches and strife you've set forth
    We're just needles looking for haystacks
    Haystacks...
