Amplissimus Machina

(album: To Speak, To Listen - 2017)

Anomaly, conformity
Entheat decode the great machine
Departure from consistency
Of dogmatic assimilation

They're lost in misology
And I can't relate to the nescient train of thought
So, omnierudite, are you here to watch the world burn
In compurgation or contrition?

And I've seen it so many times before
No love, just careless communication
To reprocess counterfeit meaning
In who we are when all is one
All that's ours is what you want

Inclination, a conscious separation
It is non-existent
So controlling, it pulls me closer
The path I choose to walk
Circumstances, ends that take no chances
It is self-consistent
Adaptation. Human fabrication
Until I see the end

They've taken away our eyes
And our ability to separate what's real
Of all the lies and false beliefs
The machines have taken all I've ever known
They've taken away our lives
And our ability to think and feel alive
I feel all of my thoughts devolve
The machines have taken all I've ever known

Breathe in
Bring me close and watch my eyes
Concentrate
Don't turn away
Breath out
This could be our way out now

Normality, incongruity
Entheat decode the great machine
Convergence of variation
Of singularity assimilation

Free yourself in constant motion
No surprises. No devotion
Awake, protest the monolith
Or let this be the end
