Lyrics
Born In Captivity
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I want to build a mirror
I need to feel the other
If I don't seem alone
You might see that I'm a faker
Constant-thought catastrophe
All to feed the little me
Cutting down the elder trees
All to extinguish their thought-bubbles
Superseded, overthrown
Beast is showing great renown
All you see is what he's shown
All the warrior sees is adversaries
Mother Gaia testifies
Burn the veil that covers eyes
See the inner paradise
Be your Unified true nature
Why would illumined wells run dry?
Pain in separation
How will she gouge our plastic eyes?
She embodies Union
What gnosis borne from great abyss?
Fear creates the dark outside
What knowledge calls the lighted mist?
Dark that opens third eye
You strive for the false
Implanted occult
No meaning, no meaning
Conform to the world
Close all channels in
No meaning, no meaning
More symbols arise
Let drowning reprise
No meaning, defeated
