As We Fall Into Deep Waters
Royal Coda Lyrics

Not a trace, not a face
There is no evidence or indication of anyone's existence

Little voice and a ton of space
Although there seems to be vast amounts of space for growth and exploration, a small internal voice speaks to the contrary

Can of mace
The singer does not want to take part in any violent, volatile activities

I ain't gonna run with the liar
The artist does not want to be associated with someone who is dishonest

I don't represent a murderer
The artist wants to distance themselves from violence and death

Yeah your number in a data base, data base
People's identities are reduced to a collection of data points in a modern world that values efficiency over individuality

Unemployment checks we got a raise, got a raise
Although the economy may be struggling, the singer and those like them have received a boost in their financial support

Now we're the blank face consumer
We have become a society that places more value on the goods and services we consume than the people who provide them

Now we're the brainwashed loser
We have all been subjected to messaging that aims to manipulate our thoughts and actions, leading to feelings of being lost and helpless

Somehow we want it and everyone knows
We all have desires and wants, some of which may not be socially acceptable or openly discussed

But I don't, I don't
The singer does not share these same wants or desires

Still want to know
Despite not wanting the same things as others, the artist still seeks knowledge and understanding

Everyone grows
All individuals mature and gain experiences as they progress through life

But you don't, you don't
However, the singer sees someone who has not experienced this growth or who has remained stagnant

And time will tell
Only time will reveal the true outcome of situations and decisions made by people

Open and shut the case, shut the case
There seems to be a clear and straightforward resolution, but there are still harsh consequences for those involved

The information age we can't agree, can't agree
Despite having access to vast amounts of information, people are still unable to come to a consensus or agreement on many things

Upon the little things and argue
People find themselves getting into heated debates over seemingly insignificant details

Fighting each other getting nothing done
Instead of coming together to find a solution, people waste energy fighting each other and fail to make progress

But we're the 'experts' and all the kids
Those who hold positions of power and influence may believe themselves to be experts, while younger generations are often discounted

They're throwing all their little fits, little fits
Younger generations are acting out in response to being ignored and overlooked by those in power

You never even thought about it
The artist believes that someone has failed to consider a particular issue or perspective

Never crossed your mind
The singer believes that this issue was not even given a moment's thought

It's a big mistake
Ignoring certain issues or perspectives can lead to negative consequences or outcomes

And it's too late, it's too late
It may now be too late to rectify the problem or change course

I just don't want to think about it
The singer finds the issue to be too overwhelming or troubling to consider further

Every single day
This issue weighs heavy on the singer's mind every day

And all the time
This issue is constantly on the artist's mind

Where is mine? Where is mine?
The artist wonders where their share or fair treatment is in a society that seems to value certain individuals or groups over others

I just stared at the river wondering
The singer is lost in thought or contemplation, possibly considering how to move forward or what their next steps should be

How long would it take to go?
The singer may be considering fleeing or escaping from their current situation

Then I heard, A little voice Saying 'no'
Despite the temptation to escape or give up, the artist hears a small voice urging them to remain and fight for what they believe in
