My first actual vote, since the only song I place above the others is Idioglossia. So amazed it came this far, don't expect it to win.

Idioglossia is the best song here, so I'm glad that it's winning this.

The Perfect Element.

My vote is likely not going to matter anyway, but I prefer TPE by a slight margin, mainly because of the verses and because I've seen them play it live twice and it absolutely slays live. While Idioglossia is more 'flashy', for lack of a better word, the title track is more coherent in my eyes. I like both tracks a lot though, see my ranking above (though neither is in my top 2).

King of Loss is, by far, the best song though.

I have to admit, I am a bit surprised. Idioglossia is my favorite song in general, but rarely do people ever talk about it. People talk a lot about lots of other tracks, so I just assumed it wasn't anyone's favorite. Crazy times.

Idioglossia is the most proggy one with that intro but it's far from being the best song here, imo.

Idioglossia

Used was the first PoS song that I ever heard, and is still my favorite. Her Voices is my 3rd favorite.

but she will flyyyyy

 I think In the Flesh is amazing. A shame that it didn't make the finals. I'm more bummed about KoL though. I won't stop mentioning that until this survivor is over :lol

Idioglossia is a worthy #1, was expecting the title track which I always thought was overrated and not their best epic.  This makes up for the indefensible early elimination of King of Loss.
