Your eyes so vibrant
I wish I could here your thoughts
But your words were stolen
your voice is almost lost
Living inside memories
regressing into former selves
last of a generation
before this connected hell
What if I woke up tomorrow
Pacing those halls
Do you think that I would realize
What I've lost
Isn't funny how it goes
You're here and then you're gone
I see you daily
I know you know my voice
So many shared moments
Is it you, that you've lost
Were you always so violent
I'm sure that you were not
Always trying to imagine
Those pictures in that box
What if I woke up tomorrow
Pacing those halls
Do you think that I would realize
What I've lost
Isn't funny how it goes
You're here and then you're gone
What if I woke up tomorrow
Pacing those halls
Do you think that I would realize
What I've lost
Isn't funny how it goes
You're here and then you're gone
Its not funny how it goes

puzzle pieces in the sewage
sifting through the mountain
of infomercialized conspiracy
the harvesting of dull care
comfortable in your armchair
as it plays out on your telescreen
and by the time you think it matters
maybe then its too late
solution you'll buy
making madness for order
problem
reaction
solution
drifting currents in the sand dunes
set your course for knowhere
get your popcorn and watch the show
and as the tide is turning
don't forget the current thing
it's your passport
and by the time you think it matters
maybe then its too late
solution you'll buy
making madness for order
problem
reaction
solution

Dopamine levels fluctuate
Hopping from screen to screen
Comparing yourself to whats portrayed
But you know its mostly an illusion
Chemically bound
To our Habits
Dopamine levels fluctuate
Living in this modern haze
When every moment must be spent
In a constant state of connection
Chemically bound
To our Habits

In-formation Desert
05:12
|
|||
|
breadcrumb paths are endless
paved with mold and misery
trapped in a prison of meaning
where every map appears to be broken
so mime the dance within your view
and cast the anger straight to their hearts
as thought forms blindfold us
sleepwalking during a psychic war
this dialectic coma
just a projection upon the cave wall
uninformed or misinformed
mimetic passenger only by default
this psychic warfare
in an information desert
this dialectic coma
projections from the fourth wall

Chapel Perilous

(Lyrics are excerpts from Prometheus Rising by Robert Anton Wilson)
your software it's non local
it's everywhere and every when
as the thinker thinks
the prover proves
we superimpose coherent structure
so the world makes sense to us
oh to us
take a look inside the chapel perilous
wondering eyes
haunted
your mind is a tool invented by the universe
to see itself
it can never see all of itself
take a look inside the chapel perilous
wondering eyes
haunted
As the thinker thinks
the prover proves

Daily Dose

|
1984 was many years ago
Welcome to A Brave New World
Everything is under Control
Let's Behold A Pale Horse
Take your daily dose of cognitive dissonance
let it make up your mind
purge yourself of that critical thinking
all you need now is to obey....cognitive dissonance

The future is here
Barren vessels everywhere
Trapped in the cloud
Every copy of an actor
Witness to the great forgetting
Angels perch on a rusted nail
As the music fades into oblivion
Are we all just sitting back?
As the narrative role
Hypnotic control
Imaginary landscapes
From the future and the past
The building of an arms race
Of inverted fantasy
The future was here
Utopia in the dreaming
A head in the clouds
Each and every citizen
Will deeply love their servitude
Demons perched on a crucifix
As they credits play into oblivion
Were they all just sitting back
As their given roles
Drained away our souls
Imaginary landscapes
From the future and the past
The building of an arms race
Of inverted fantasy

The Milgram Reverie
Milgram Experiment: Participants were led to believe that they were assisting an unrelated experiment, in which they had to
administer electric shocks to a "learner". These fake electric shocks gradually increased to levels that would have been fatal had they been real.
The experiment found, unexpectedly, that a very high proportion of subjects would fully obey the instructions.
