Tearing Back The Veil
05:39
|
|||
I will find the sanctity of life
I will defy what consumes me
I would rather not go at this alone
Will join me?
In pulling back the veil
I’ll unlock the barriers of the mind
I will decide what defines me
On this road I could use a friend
Will you join me?
In pulling back the veil
I’ll gaze upon the world with my true eye
I will deny what confines me
Let the two halves become one
I’m tearing back the veil
Spiraling and twisting in the void
I’m accepting what I see
With eyes closed
I’m tearing back the veil
The lines merge as one
I’m pulling back the veil
Biding time until the moment arrives
Waiting for the haze to clear and open up my eyes

Ascension
05:30
|
|||
I feel it take over me
I’m tethered to this place
Bit by bit
The fear is leaving me
I give in to its embrace
I’m ready to venture out
I’m ready to fly
I listen to the song until I’m paralyzed
There goes the gravity
My weightless form ascends
Inch by inch
I feel it leaving me
I feel my body forget
I’m ready to go
I can feel it within my bones
To feel the unknown (to open the door)
And witness the veil unfold
"Some people will use a the symbolism of the relationship of God to the universe. Wherein, God is say ‘brilliant light’ only somehow veiled, hiding underneath all these forms that you see as you look around. But the truth is funnier than that. It is that you are looking right at the brilliant light, now. That’s the great discovery.”
Break the walls that isolate your mind
Don’t be afraid, just give in and let go
The physical, familiar world behind
Guided by a thousand lines
The temporary fear is just a lie
Don’t hold your breath, just go with the flow
The energy uncoiled, is unlike anything you’ve known
I’m ready to go
I’m ready to see
I want to let go
I want to be free
I’m ready to go
(higher and higher)
I’m ready to see
(behind the veil)
I want to let go
(and feed the desire)
When shall I be free?

I can see the lines run across your face
The ceiling made of prismatic wire
Is my mind in the right place?
White lines trace the black space
Sunrise
Bring the light into my mind
There’s no return
Past this point it burns
so bright
Nervous of the heart pounding in my chest
The beads of sweat running down my spine
I’m not sure this was the right time
I’m not sure this was the right amount
I am waiting for the comfort of your voice
Something to bring me back into this world
White lines trace the blackness
Coalesce and move in reverse
Separate and let it go
I don’t know
what I’m thinking now
I don’t understand the reason why I feel the void’s embrace
But there's world between us
It feels like a friend
But it scares me half to death
I can hear it say
“Welcome home”
I close my eyes and I can feel it
Taking over
Taking hold of me
Over me
I can, feel it, coming
Bearing down and twisting round me
This is unfamiliar
Gripping out and all inside me
Deeper, Deeper
Sunrise
Bring the light into my mind
There’s no return
Past this point it burns
so bright

Decimator (feat. Plini)
06:17
|
|||
I’m the decimator
I destroy what you thought was you
I scrape away the shroud from your eyes
And show you
I’m, the activator
Construct and mold the truth
I strip away the shell from your mind
And teach you
A thousand eyes are watching
As you stumble through your mind
You were sleeping, you were dreaming
Awaken and throw away the lie
I’m, the annihilator
And through me you will know you
Disintegrate the body from mind
And step through
I’m the decimator
Decimate the “you” inside of you
I tear away the veil from your eyes
And show you
A million eyes are watching
As you stumble through your mind
You were sleeping, you were dreaming
Awaken and throw away the lie
The core is opened
The pillar is stripped awa
y
Insides finally revealed
The barrier is broken
And now you can’t run away
From what you need to face
Decimate and strip away
Let everything collapse
Concentrate and see the way
Don't let yourself be trapped

Self Collapse
06:46
|
|||
Piece by piece,
misalignment begins
The illusion dissolves)
The cracked edges
separate at the seams
(
Fragments fall)
I am no longer I
A lie lays hidden behind a lie
Peel back the shell
Innermost threads tear in two
Decimate the self
And collapse the “me” in you
Line by line,
the illusion evolves
(Realignment begins)
The veil is torn,
the ego dissolved
(Separate at the seams)
I am no longer I
A lie lay hidden behind a lie
Peel back the shell
Innermost threads tear in two
Decimate the self
And collapse the “me” in you

Synchronicity
04:20
|
|||
“We have been educated to use our minds, in a certain way. A way that ignores or screens out fact, that every one of us is an aperture, through which the whole cosmos looks out.”
I stare beyond my tempered cries
And thoughts of you and I
Peering through the haze I see
Synchronicity
Ebb and flow
Among separate waves
Come and go
Apart, and together
Peer beyond the flesh and bone
Rest your mind, you’re going home
Look behind the pain, the dark
It won’t matter in the end
You’re on your way
Feel the space it’s all around
Twisting, turning inside out
Feel yourself becoming one
Mind and body
Earth and sun

Tidal
04:37
|
|||
Let the currents flow
Visions come and go
Let me dream up high
Give in to the sky below
The tide takes me out and in
The tide takes me far and near
Again,
the waves wash over me
Color me in memories
Of everything I've never seen
Of everywhere I've never been
Moments feel like eternity
I’ve given in entirely
Surrender to the waves
swallowing me whole
The tide takes me out and in
The tide takes me far and near
Tidal, I am without the within
Tidal, I appear and disappear

Spires
05:39
|
|||
I can never remember to forget you
The driving force, the urge to
I know myself, to merge into
The black, void and formless
I can never forget to remember you
No matter how hard I try to
Control myself, snap back to
Reality, momentarily
I shed myself,
Layer by layer
I forget myself,
Thought by thought
I construct myself
Little by little
I ascend the machine,
Spire by spire
Do I cast a shadow,
Or am I drowning?
I become the light,
I embrace nothing
I remember to forget
all the somethings
That leave me bitter
Leave me wanting
Do I cast a shadow
Or am I drowning?
I become the light,
I embrace nothing
I remember
to remember
That the sun
Glows upon me
Day by day

Labyrinthian
07:24
|
|||
Travelling alone
I’m guided to a place that I have never seen
The sum of all is none
(or am I someone?)
Climb the spire; look into the eyes of another
Staring into the searing sea
I’ve never seen so many eyes staring back at me
Burning like the sun
Guide me to a place that I have never been
Labyrinthian (many ways to one)
Does it ever make sense anymore?
Nothing ever makes sense anymore
So if you know what to believe
And if you cannot see the sea
I can feel you in my brain
I can feel you in everything
Gazing out into the sea
I’ve never seen so many eyes observing me
Their movement like a symphony
They’re twisting and swerving and absorbing all of me
And I embrace my
Desire to reach for the sky
Feel it burn inside
As I’m taken by the tide
A voice behind the corner
Beckons me to follow (come with me)
Ripples beneath the water
Smear into the burning sand (blow away)
Elements colliding
The senses cannot speak (cannot see)
I am becoming nothing
And I am everything, everything
I’ve stared into the sea
A billion piercing eyes
I feel them carry me way beyond the tide
Caught in this maze of mirrors
Smiling back at me
Labyrinthine consciousness
Devouring me

B'ak'tun
06:35

Iridescent lines connected to the structure’s eye
Monuments assembled by the serpent in the sky
Lights align against the columns grafted to the dirt
Shapes connect obsidian transistors to the earth
Wait, I’m dreaming in reverse
The sky begins to burst
Falling through these eyes
Lights collide
Serpent coil around me
Feathers black like drowning
In the sky above the crater
Of your mind’s voices sounding
I can feel the weight of
everything
collapsing and bending
distorting and rending
the nothingness of everything
Is ending
The stars begin to dance
Like water through the sand
Ascend this weathered skin
Awakening
Serpent coil around me
Feathers black like drowning
In the sky above the crater
Of your mind’s voices sounding
(
I can feel the weight of
everything collapsing and bending
distorting and rending
the nothingness of everything is ending)

Horizon
04:26
|
|||
I can see it now
The light is coming
I can feel it all around me
And I am becoming
One
Horizon
I cannot find you
Am I still really here?
Cannot find my way
My world has disappeared
Home,
Here is where you are
Among
,
The deepest parts
Home,
Here is where you are
Among
,
The farthest parts
of you
When the waves stop, so do I
I never move myself, now do I?
When the wind stops, so do I
I never move my own body, do I?
One
I am
One with all
Horizon
I cannot find you
Am I still really here?
Cannot find my way
My world has disappeared
Home,
Here is where you are
Among
,
The deepest parts
Home,
Here is where you are
Among
,
The farthest parts
of you
Home.
