lyrics

Möbius strip prisms
fall down from the atmosphere,
cutting the clouds to shreds

Soon, every knee will bend
for the confounding, new,
enigmatic conundrum

An abstrait roar reverberates;
A roar that polarizes
all of consciousness:
Egoistic and altruistic

All.

It seeks not a war with weapons;
tilting perception for leverage

Promises and grand delusions
One truth for two false seeds planted

It craves divide,
praying on devalued lives

The overworked being Groomed
to hate their neighbor via "news"

[Sound-clip of Severn Cullis-Suzuki at the Rio Summit in 1992]

We, down in our squalor-like homes
now Suffocate on this new toxic air

Old monuments burn for the new throned,
as once coastal land now rests submerged

Mad at the world and they don't know why...
...while following those who've plucked out their eyes

Shaking the cage until pissed off and bound by boredom
A boredom so welcome, it helps keep their ears off the ground

Carving lines in the sand:
A prelude to the end of man

Manufactured outrage is the spear tip;
harbinger of our last days

Callous tact breeds callous actions;
The unread can't help themselves

Callous acts feed callous factions;
Unified like cancer cells

"Them" using man against man;
Biomechnical weaponization

I'm a big fan of The Faceless middle two albums and when I saw Lyle Cooper was on this album I knew I needed to check it out. I bought the discography almost instantly, reminds me a little of The Faceless and a bit more of Fallujah who I also adore. Well worth the money, Support these great Musicians! dragonslayer8228
