The Trails Lyrics
[Verse 1]
All that you see that is gold is truly gold
I spotted through the vines, a deer in the wild
[Refrain]
Signs in the trails
Beyond the reason
[Verse 2]
Eye-gazing the unknown, defeating the ground
This passage through the flames, leads me where the souls go
[Bridge]
Signs in the dreams
Beyond the reason
We're forced into the light
[Chorus]
How can we be so blind?
Our light is torn
How can we be so lame?
No truth being told
[Refrain]
Signs in the trails
Beyond the reason
All that you see that is gold is truly gold
I spotted through the vines, a deer in the wild
[Refrain]
Signs in the trails
Beyond the reason
[Verse 2]
Eye-gazing the unknown, defeating the ground
This passage through the flames, leads me where the souls go
[Bridge]
Signs in the dreams
Beyond the reason
We're forced into the light
[Chorus]
How can we be so blind?
Our light is torn
How can we be so lame?
No truth being told
[Refrain]
Signs in the trails
Beyond the reason
[Verse 3]
All that you see that lives truly is alive
Let us stay awake reminded of the trails that matter
All that you see that lives truly is alive
Let us stay awake reminded of the trails that matter

What did Gojira say about "The Trails"?
Genius Answer
Joe Duplantier:
It’s like a blurry dream—a poem with soothing music. We always have this toward the end of our albums, because we can’t help but experiment. I could easily do a side project or a solo career to express some of the stuff that is not metal, but I choose to focus on the band and turn GOJIRA into a weird beast that has several faces. I think “The Trails” is a more subtle side of us, but it’s actually very technical. It’s maybe the hardest song to play on guitar on the entire album, but it’s also the calmest.
