Quantum fields in the reverb sing
Stars aligned by the phantom king
Questions arise - what is this thing?
Steady states in flux transforming
Spiraling down into some abyss
Infinity calls with its eerie hiss
The great unknown beyond the pale
Sought by seekers who've always failed
We seem to find ourselves oblivious
What god would pillage and torture us
What god would sicken the children among us
What god would infect and reject us
What kind of god would set us up to fail
What kind of sick joke would that entail
Rats in a cage just to entertain
Fighting to death for the watching fain
All the while we sit in wonder
Stare at the heavens while evil men plunder
Until the reaper comes knocking like thunder
When he comes to take you under
Below the deepest crater
It's time to meet your maker
Enigma!
You are a puzzle that cannot be solved
Enigma!
Confusing at best and at worst a mind fuck
Enigma!
Irresistant to destiny's call
Enigma!
And I'm running outta time...
Centuries of the enlightened
Telling stories to comfort the frightened
Seeking solace in their misfortune
Uncertainty for them is torture
Questions that cannot be answered
Plague the minds of those who need masters
For protection and comfort in chaos
To quell their fears that life is meaningless
Enigma!
You are a puzzle that cannot be solved
Enigma!
Confusing at best and at worst a mind fuck
Enigma!
Irresistant to destiny's call
Enigma!
And I'm running outta time
Running outta time
Now seeking science to solve the enigma
A new religion to suppress paranoia
Star dust blowing in solar winds
Ashes to ashes of nothingness
Vacuum of blackness and frozen rock
Does not give a fuck about us!
Enigma!
You are a puzzle that cannot be solved
Enigma!
Confusing at best and at worst a mind fuck
Enigma!
Irresistant to destiny's call
Enigma!
And I'm running outta time
Running outta time
Can we make peace with the unknown (yeah!)
Embrace that we all die alone (oh!)
Lights go out and from there no one knows
Make the best of the time we've got now
