lyrics

Complications of Consciousness
i. Dreamtime
ii. Ailments of Combustion
iii. Svaha

Burn yourself down before you grow.
Lose knowledge unfound before you know.
Take to the sea to perfectly drown.
Hold your last scream to hide the sound.
Fight your battle to the end with gravity.
Speed to the soil with alacrity.
Just before the dark obscures your face
Whisper your guilty plea.

All the complications of consciousness,
Mortality, insanity, entropy;
The stark illusion of the promise of elusive bliss,
Just a complication of consciousness.

Walk an infinite line to spend your energy.
Walk an infinite time to find what you need.
Listen to your heart only as it slows down.
Realize you missed the Dawn when it’s already sundown.

All the complications of consciousness,
The guarantee of the inevitable abyss;
Desolation that lingers like your very last kiss,
Just another complication of consciousness.

When you awake, blissed and sublime
And your dream dies with the loss of your mind
Concentrate awhile, keep it alive
Focus the desire of your dreamtime

Walk an infinite line to spend your energy.
Walk an infinite time to find what you need.
Listen to your heart only as it slows down.
Realize you missed the Dawn at sundown.

Regretting the loss of all the things you miss:
Just a complication of consciousness;
The touch of love lost from your fingertips:
Just a complication of consciousness;
Dreamtime devoured by a life amiss:
Just a complication of consciousness;
When a shadow of yourself is all that exists,
It’s just a complication of consciousness,

Live a lie while dark and dead inside,
Disconnect from the pull of the moon and tide;
Living alive while dark and dead inside,
Disconnected from the dreamtime.
