REDACTED Lyrics

I fondly looked at our shared history

I guess it always felt like this

But who pioneered this state

A fellowship originated

I know there's something that I missed

But those pages were redacted

It was a brazen thing to do

I'm still surprised you acted

As if the knowledge kept from me

Meant anything to you

The early days are still a mystery

Speculative summaries at best

Evolving if you let it

But each day you're more synthetic

Our genesis was not addressed

Cause those pages were redacted

It was a callous thing to do

I'm still surprised you acted

As if the knowledge kept from me

Meant anything to you

It's a fact that we look the same

But your heart is made of steel

I'd like to know how we got this way

And how your hands got on the wheel

You said the narrative is so easy to fake

The curriculum defined by the class

Misdirect the unformed minds

Phase out the ones who remember the past

Then you got yourself a brand new story

Apocryphal but not unkind

And if one day it's a truth you seek

This brand new fiction is what you will find

Cause those pages were redacted

It was the smartest thing to do

I'm still surprised you acted

As if the knowledge kept from me

Meant anything to you

Cause those pages were redacted

It was the only thing to do

I'm still surprised you acted

As if the knowledge kept from me

Meant anything

Meant anything

Meant anything to you
