Lyrics:

[Intro]
[distorted electric guitar riff, driving drums]

[Verse 1]
[male vocals with slight grit]
Crinkle, crump, the data drips down the black screen
He says make it all great, make it great again
One man, one voice, stop the cans, silence the gears
We want to know, we want to know
Open the vault, break the seal
No matter the cost, no matter the hurt
We want to know, we want to know

[Chorus]
[full band intensity, heavy distortion]
Know it all, know it all
Give it up, give it up
The church of screens loud, the Twittersphere's burning
Thirsting for the secret blood, where does the rabbit run?
Down, down, further down
Show us the dust, show us the bone
Release the heavy files, rip the paper, tell us, tell us now
We want to know, we want to know

[Verse 2]
[guitars pull back to palm-muted rhythm]
Open the vault, break the seal
No matter the cost, no matter the hurt
We want to know, we want to know

[Chorus]
[distorted power chords]
The famous faces, the suits and the glass
The gold and the sand, celebrities, politicians, bankers
Watch them crawl, watch them fall, watch them all
Emails, texts, pictures, videos, the pixelated ghosts
The digital skin

[Bridge]
[drum fill, sustained guitar chords]
Horrific it might be, terrible it might sting
But the truth is a knife, cut the wire, breathe the light
We're already, we're waiting for the end of a lie

[Outro]
[high energy, vocal belt]
We want to know, we want to know
Open the vault, break the seal
No matter the cost, no matter the hurt
We want to know, we want to know
The price is high, the price is us
We want to know everything, everything, everything
Know it all, know it all
The files are open, the lights are on
We know
[final drum hit, guitar feedback]
