lyrics

What was once thought to be flat
was, then, shown to be round

A cipher revealed through brute force,
used to decode the human source

That which was seen as myth,
recalculated and refurbished

Loss on an oblate spheroid;
Collective wisdom destroyed

Destroyed

An unlodged extragalactic
sword swallowed by stone,
with incalculable parameters that
synchronize with the unknown

Aforesaid, hitherto formatting
evoked earthen plane-like forms

Exponential advancements, streamlined,
sculpted new paradigms

Minds bending inside out since the reveal,
mouths agape as all stands still

Encrypted
and
obfuscated,

reality exposed

They never lied when they sketched
the ships falling off the edge

They didn't know
They just didn't know

The vacuum of space
has eaten
it's fair share of
those who crossed the
point of no return, like
Icarus
flying to close
as his wings roast

Now they are left mauled
by information
(Mental radiation)

The succeeding path
is on display
but, cryptic and
beyond grasp

Encrypted
and obfuscated,
reality exposed

Within the programmatic boundless astronomy
there rests infinite facts and very few anomalies

All answers are gnarled in script,
inside the sacred womb!!

Lines of vast code & cosmic instructions in flight;
Algorithms unfold as autodidactic systems inscribe
Execution preformed faster than advance cognizance;
The cipher once constant, becoming hypothesis

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
