Read the lyric sheet

Verse 1

A complicated world walks in with homework, and a simple story says, put that down, this works. One villain, one curtain, one secret in the vault, and if it ever crumbles, that's the saboteur's fault. It flatters you first, that's the elegant part: you're the one who saw through it, the honest, the smart. Regular hands holding forbidden math, a shortcut to special that skips the hard path.

Chorus

If it can't be wrong, it can't be right, a door with a bolt that turns from inside. Show me the test you would let it fail; a map that fits any wind isn't a sail.

Verse 2

Watch the pattern move, not the costume it wears: the globe is a stage prop, the horizon a snare, the photos are forged, the pilots in on it too. The commune collapsed? Then it never was true. The downline went broke? They just didn't believe. Three rooms, one blueprint, one ace up the sleeve: the theory stays perfect, reality flinched; heads I was right, tails the game was fixed.

Verse 3

Now hold on, be fair, 'cause the coin has a face: the experts have lied, that's a matter of case. Some ideas got smothered before they could breathe, and "it never was tried" can be honest, not a weave. The powerful do bury things, that part's not a myth, so a doubter with a shovel isn't wrong to exist. The question was never who's cynical enough; it's your ears on the day when the shovel finds dust.

Bridge

And here's the razor, and it cuts at me first: I can wave off dissent as a symptom, rehearsed, call each defense a dodge till my doubt is a shrine, a fortress with the bolt on my side of the line.

Verse 4

I stopped asking what I believe, I ask what makes me quit: name the evidence in advance, then honor it. A claim that can lose is the only kind that wins; a shield that covers everything was never really skin. Two benches, one table, both holding a key, no verdict from this speaker, no flag planted by me. Just a hinge and a question, oiled and ajar, 'cause a room you can't exit isn't shelter, it's a jar.

Chorus

If it can't be wrong, it can't be right, a door with a bolt that turns from inside. Show me the test you would let it fail; a map that fits any wind isn't a sail. Turn the bolt
