Lyrics The Ceaseless Arbitrary Choice - Dawn Ray'd

The Ceaseless Arbitrary Choice

You gamble again on the listing scales
The balance endlessly tilting
The rigid structure that will only ever fall two ways
Adamant that the balance cannot be predetermined
That the coin be constantly tossed
And each half equally weighted
There is confusion when the odds don’t always favour you
It’s very failure you see as it’s strength
It’s blindness to need or compassion
Gives weight and credence
To evils you thought
The machine would erase
An instrument designed to balance the great opposites
Must always rely on good and evil
Why is there a ceiling on what we are trusted with?
In place of the gamble on hope or despair
Why can we not rig the system?
Let’s force the outcome
Let’s trust ourselves completely
And know that cruelty is not the prerequisite of kindness
This is all by our hand
And can easily be undone
Lets stop the arbitrary outcomes
And just set the balance once
