\n[Minimal Beat, Sub Bass, Spoken Vocal]
\nEpistemic: we may only fully recognize such a transition in hindsight, once the system response is already well underway.<\/p>\n
We don\u2019t see the phase change around.
\nOnly after it’s going down
\n(Down, down, down)
\nWhen the curve has already bent.
\n(And chances already spent.)<\/p>\n
[Instrumental]
\n[Guitar Solo: Echoing, Slightly Dissonant]

[Verse 1]
\nWe build our models carefully
\nWith data in a line
\nAssuming that tomorrow
\nWill resemble one more time
\nWe trust the average behavior
\nThe smoothness of the trend
\nNot seeing that the structure
\nIs approaching an end<\/p>\n
[Pre-Chorus]
\nSignals blend
\n(Into noise)
\nNoise becomes
\n(Our decoy)<\/p>\n
[Chorus]
\nEpistemic: Things that pertain
\n(… to how we know what we know)
\nIn fact…
\n(What constitutes a fact)
\n…or the limits of our understanding
\n(Our damned demanding)
\nThe edge of certainty
\n(Begins to bend)
\nWhere explanation
\n(Can’t defend)<\/p>\n
[Verse 2]
\nA system shifts in silence
\nA threshold disappears
\nBut language lags behind it
\nFor years and years and years
\nWe label what is familiar
\nWe name what we can see
\nWhile deeper reorganizations
\nRewrite reality<\/p>\n
[Pre-Chorus]
\nWe measure
\n(After the fact)
\nWe explain
\n(Once it’s intact)<\/p>\n
[Chorus]
\nEpistemic: Things that pertain
\n(… to how we know what we know)
\nIn fact…
\n(What constitutes a fact)
\n…or the limits of our understanding
\n(Our damned demanding)<\/p>\n
We learn too late
\n(What we didn’t know)
\nAs the hidden fractures
\nBegin to show<\/p>\n
[Refrain]
\nIn hindsight
\n(20\/20)
\nNew insight
\n(Needed plenty)
\nIn hindsight
\n(Incite insight)<\/p>\n
[Bridge]
\n[Music Drops to Bass, Ambient Synth, Sparse Piano]
\nWe think we see reality
\nBut we see its reflection
\nFiltered through assumption
\nAnd delayed detection<\/p>\n
The world moves first
\nThen knowledge follows slow
\nBy the time we name it
\nIt already chose to grow<\/p>\n
[Build]
\nToo late…
\n(To define it)
\nToo late…
\n(To confine it)
\nToo late…
\n(To align it)
\nIt already shifted while we were trying to find it<\/p>\n
