Mosaic Lyrics

Pop the jiffy, melt the land o' lake

Sit back, enjoy the show

watch what you helped create

Broken toys, paper flowers

Remnants of chalk

Preserved for decades

In a dusty old box

The past, mummified

Frozen in decay

Voices unsilenced finally say their say

We're not basic

We're a mosaic

Now we can say it

A beautiful mosaic

Mosaic, yeah yeah

He was an experiment, he was a toy

They took pleasure in the pain of a little boy

The sign above his head, "hurt this one!" it read

They passed him around, like a spit-soaked joint

He could've relented, but what was the point

All systems go

Wait, out of order

Rise Warriors Rise

'Cause there's more than one of us

We're not basic

We're a mosaic

Now we can say it

A beautiful mosaic

Mosaic, yeah yeah

We stayed apart in order to live

Separated the trauma, contained it within

We then placed our brokenness in pattern

Traversing the darkness, our truth became our lantern

We're not basic

We're a mosaic

Now we can say it

A beautiful mosaic

Mosaic, yeah yeah
