Lyrics:

Life goes on
We’re turning the pages tumultuously
Toward certain disaster

Weeks and days with broken wings
I don’t mind…

My will is the master

‘Please release me, crawl my way back to the ground’
…The world makes a cried-out, dried-out sound…

And this is so much larger

All we are is a fading madness
All we are is a place in time
All we have is the faith that it's all gonna change…

…GET ME OUT

Take a minute
You’re only as strong as your mind
Enduring depression… weeks and days with rubber knees
But I Don’t mind…

…I’m grace under pressure

‘Please release me, I’ve been here for so long…’
…The world makes a dried-out, fucked up sound

This is so much larger

All we are is a faded madness
All we are is a place in time
All we have is the faith that it's all gonna change…

SO GET ME OUT

Seek the middle
Through words of fire

The worthy reach me, I’ve no place for you now
Cause this is so much larger

All we are is a faded madness
All we are is a place in time
All we have is the faith that it's all going to Jainism

All we are is a faded madness
All we were was a place in time
If all we have is the faith that it's all going to change

GET ME OUT

Brother, you’ve got to pay… what have you got to say
Brother, you gotta to pay…

I’VE ALREADY GOT YOU

[RichardGarcia]

Met Devin at NAMM earlier this year. He was the most down to earth musician I’ve ever met. A gem of a person.

[jeanfredericferte]

Sometimes you get the song you absolutely needed exactly when needed.

[AndDeathForAll]

I finally got to see him live, opening for Dream Theater, and he was astounding.

[skurge]

I don't think I will ever get bored of listening to Devin sing. His voice is unreal.

[maxbrown]

HONEY, WAKE UP, THERES NEW DEVIN MUSIC!!!!

[AllanBaek]

I love this track. The subtle synth part fits beautifully.

[AstraVex]

Always blows my trousers off how Devin writes stuff that is simultaneously chilled, chunky, deep, urgent and sensitive all at once.

This song is the embodiment of
_"You gotta chill, man...."_ ❤

[jonclark]

I can now say i have heard the word tumultuously in a song. Thanks Devy!!!

[wyldeman]

The way the synth builds to the guitar riff is a perfect transition.

This song is really good.

[CubanoCris]

PowerNerd is shaping up to be one of my favorite albums from Devin if all the tracks go this hard!

[Tamarocker]

You're a human wonder, Dev. Thank you for sharing your brilliant talent with us.

[mrhassell]

In Jainism, suffering is caused by ignorance of the true nature of reality, and liberation is achieved through spiritual awakening and then living the truth one has realized.

[gtrjamd]

Yet another amazing song by the world’s most talented musician.

[sharonsimsay]

When I heard his album empath I was hooked and have gone down the rabbit hole. I just love Devin Townsend! For those who have not heard him give him a listen you will never turn back

[AntigoneProject]

We must protect this man at all cost, he’s a true genuine musical genius who can actually sing and play incredibly… fucking incredibly

[solarwinds]

"Please Release me. I've been here for so long" ... This song begging to be shared with the world! Awesome song Dev!

[rychengirl]

I'm so in love with Devin's style, words, language, and light he puts inside the magic that is a song of his. Thank you Devin. You make a HUGE difference in this micro cosmic world.

[evannicholson]

FUCK YES!!!! Devin never ceases to amaze me

[Cannabest]

Devvy has a way of putting out songs right when I need them the most in life

[C.C.Woodwork]

It's so amazing that one man, with a world of talent, can bring all walks of life together. I bet everyone who loves this guy is a great person 😊 peace and love to you all!
