Downfall 04:18
We watch as culture collapses / Crumbling beliefs Failure of reason / Meaning is lost Unexplainable predicament / Adherence to absolutes Our downfall / Excessive self concern A STORM IN THE HEART / A SHIFT IN SPIRIT Drowning in doubt/ Inability to create CULTIVATE / INVOCATE FORGING / NEW WAYS Conflict / Distress / Chaos Relinquish / Control A STORM IN THE HEART A SHIFT IN SPIRIT CULTIVATE / INVOCATE FORGING / NEW WAYS
2.
A colossal misdirection of concern I cannot see a glimmer in their eyes Rituals of disengagement Incessant need to escape A colossal exploitation of the need to relate I cannot fathom attention so willing to die Succumb to the allure of immediate gratification SEDUCTIVE/SEDATING/SOULESS Cut the water With the sword It only runs faster It flows forever Raise the glass Dispell the pain Clouds grow darker Can one refrain
3.
There's no truth, there's no reason Only live for hedonism Surround yourself with kin Never look within Surround yourself with kin Center of attention The surest prevention From knowing yourself Surround yourself with kin Never look within All are guilty When there's No wright and wrong
4.
Nothing 04:05
God on the the left God on the right There's nothing there Save for your fear Of an ocean of emptiness Where nothing is clear Conventional distance Invoked by the need To separate, make real Your identity What is revealed? What will emerge? When God is exposed As this unfounded urge To placate a longing For something so pure Robust and reliable Which always endures Nothing at all like this It's plain to see Furnishes reality
5.
Sunder 04:56
Your stories, contrived and misplaced Your lives, bleak and enchained Hurling your woes upon the world Never look at the source Project internals, blame externals On your crusade to change the world Opposition must be delineated Thus arises the two-fold world Embrace affinity, condemn difference Unworkable paradigm How long can you fool yourself for? A time will come when you will have to face your self
6.
Faux 06:21
Social cohesion / Fear of treason Callous beliefs / Permeate the mundane Panglossian falsehoods / Infect the mind Delusional beings / Obedience to the cross A cretinous force / Faux scholarship Convene the herds / Prioritizing dolorious doctrines Spellbinding conundrum / Accuracy is of no concern In this ideological septic tank SUBHUMAN / SUBSERVIENCE Moral crimes / Dangerous introspection Distorted worldview / Manic enthusiasm Uniformly dismissive / Life affirming hysterics Destructive joy / A communal crisis Endless illogical cycles / Sends the war Without empathy / Spiritual deaths Horror and delight / Fused together as god RABID WRATH OF REACTIONARIES Social cohesion / Fear of treason INSTINCTIVE SURVIVAL You're diseased / You're malignant You're diseased / You're removed
7.
Stations 04:10
Have you not seen the darkness in our hearts? You who would only see what pleases Never see with discerning eyes Spectres inhabit the surface The all to sure-footed surface of things Someday your lens will wear thin For your place of repose is only temporary As are all stations
8.
Vital 02:02
