lyrics

Born in a critical age
When history moves at a faster pace
We are torn from our natural state
Thrown into the fire and baptized by flames
Cremated as a rite of passage
Shrouded in smoke and drowning in ashes
Translated from ancient dialects
These smoke signals tell tales of violence
Encoded into failing mainframes
A Rorschach test from dissolving bloodstains
Compressed encryption from the astral plane
Direct transmission to the victim’s brain

An overload to control the senses
A neural code to unlock transcendence
Complete awareness, complete dependence
Delete the ritual devoid of reverence
Ascendance ascertained
Ordained to lead us to a shallow grave

Depraved
Exaggerate the aptitude for change
Unwilling to commence the steps to break away
The cycle more cemented every day
Ingrained
Resent the repetition but exalt the altered state
Survive the spiral of new dawns, new shames
The pieces fall apart and rearrange
Estranged
