We've been here for far too long
looking through a repressive window
Incarcerated in failure
We bleed for those in greed
All in search of a way out of here
if we keep looking back we'll never move forward
Deceived by this lie of progress we thought to be true
we've inflicted our own solitude, we are all alone
we are alone
So short sighted we cannot see our demise lies not within the sky, but our very own minds
We've never been so blind, so scared of tomorrow we refuse to open our eyes
We are trapped in a perfect world
so far from the truth; we're lost in ourselves
Incarcerated we are alone
We are the cancer we've fought to resist
Living our lives to the line "Ignorance is bliss"
All pawns in this sick game we call humanity
To us life is nothing more than a dream
The day we stop dreaming is the day that we dream forever
It's haunting. It's chaos. It's energy. It's fatigue. It's happiness. It's sadness. It's love. It's hate. This is close to the perfect black metal album for me. Marcello Velasco
The album title is appropriate: this album makes you feel like a cosmic explorer as you approach the edges of our universe. Contemplating taking a leap into a potentially dangerous new universe, you admire the celestial sights but also go through significant introspection to determine whether such an adventure will be worth it. Masterclass ambient progressive metal for the sci-fi/space nerds out there! Challenging Apathy
This is my favorite metal album of all time. The only bad thing is that the vocals are somewhat buried in the mix. Otherwise, the record perfectly blends a mix of metal genres with excellent songcraft. A record you'll listen to again and again. The Real Nick House
Hearing the songs while reading the narrative behind the lyrics, I felt overwhelmed by this tragic story in which humans and artificial intelligence couldn't coexist side by side. Their reciprocal annihilation was inevitable. Except one "sole survivor, in a ship filled with memories. She had become the proof of Earth, proof that life had existed there, a voice for all the species and beauty we once knew". A dystopian concept dressed up in brilliant musicianship! @Slevin, thanks, I owe it to you! Umbra Cornuta
