This powerful song captures the struggle of feeling drained by circumstances and the relentless desire to flourish and grow. With evocative imagery about fate, self-discovery, and overcoming trauma, it inspires listeners to keep moving forward despite uncertainty, echoing themes of evolution and transformation.
Verse 1:
Just running forward, a life like wires,
Tangled in the echoes of our tired desires.
If my fate is a bad collision,
Then my mind is an open highway, a new vision.
Chorus:
This bough has broken through,
I must be someone new.
With each step, I shed my skin,
Embracing the light that dwells within.
Verse 2:
Darkness lingers, but I can't stay,
These chains of yesterday won't lead my way.
Come now, bite through these wires,
Set me free from my hidden fires.
Chorus:
This bough has broken through,
I must be someone new.
With each step, I shed my skin,
Embracing the light that dwells within.
Bridge:
Stripped of masks, I stand anew,
In the reflection, a soul so true.
No longer just a Euclid class,
In this moment, I am free at last.
Chorus:
This bough has broken through,
I must be someone new.
With each step, I shed my skin,
Embracing the light that dwells within.
Outro:
So keep running, though the road is long,
With every heartbeat, I’ll find my song.
Evolving past the shadows cast,
In the flow of life, I’ll grow, I’ll last.

really capture the idea that we are tired amd drained of our current circumstances and how we need to flourish and grow past this. "Just running forward, a life like wires", "If my fate is a bad collision And if my mind is an open highway" and "This bough has broken through,I must be someone new"
This is also called back to in TMBTE with "Come now bite through these wires"
It points to this idea of new growth and flourishing past trauma, you don't know where you're going but you must just keep going and evolve past this.
Now, does the man behind the mask think of himself as this Euclid Class object? I think so. For me it's also a subtle idea that he's sick of his mask. Does he feel he is evolving past the mask in the same sense of the Euclid code evolving past its harware. This is also suggested because the artwork for Euclid depicts a creature who has cut off a head and he's holding Vessel's mask!
