s+rannger you are close to the jeneral idea of the album. the Album is about paradoxes, and this is a story about someone who felt the paradoxes in his life and tried to find the truth "Reaching for the inner bright, the very essence-sun of my dreaming bliss". Guided by the fear of being traped in this reality-Lie Guided outside all shades of the perfect black by a fear blinded. so the main character in the album try to find something real first he seek the truth in the personality in the "I", only to find multypersonality. 6. Entrapment Mutiny of self. Insurrection games convincingly performed Incapacitated by physical thoughts acting out the will of tendon and bone Have the bridges of insanity been crossed and forever retracted? Am I standing among a thousand selves? Is the multitude of laughters mine alone? and at last he come to a point where he plunge deeper in his abyss across life and death "Only to find that self is shed" (only to find that this new state is a lie too) at this point he can see the randomnes of the universe the chaos in ALL and to keep his mind in equilibrium he must lie himself. To lie himself to be able to seek the truth (paradox). Personae Non Gratae "A lie to maintain equilibrium, to hold me in this dead realm - this last ever dream I'm the thought that never crossed my mind - disguised in the evident. Forever unredeemed" 12. Dehumanization A new level reached, where the absence of air lets me breathe I'm inverted electrical impulses. A malfunctioning death-code incomplete All things before me, at first unliving glimpse undeciphered Its semantics rid of logic. Nothing is all. All is contradiction that is his failure.(Its semantics rid of logic. Nothing is all. All is contradiction) "Vision will blind. Severance ties. Median am I. True are all lies" And the big paradox is all truths are lies and they are true until you lie yourself they are "Median am I" and the other big paradox "The struggle to free myself of restraints, becomes my very shackles" struggling for freedom made him a prisoner between the worlds of "multi-none". He can't live in a lie again but there is no truth to be found. |

this song is about GEMINI (from the zodiac) every song in the album is about a Zodiac sign. Aries = The End of All Things to Come Taurus = Trapped in the Wake of a Dream Gemini = Shadow of a Man Cancer = World So Cold Leo = Not Falling Virgo = The Patient Mental Libra = Silenced Scorpio = Skyring Sagittarious = Solve et Coagula Capricorn = (Per)version of a Truth Aquarius = Mercy, Severity Pisces = A Key to Nothing The only song that doesn't match up to a song of the Zodiac is "12:97:24:99." (killswitch916) may be the song "12:97:24:99." is about the 13 zodiacal sign Serpent ( http://www.love-astrology.com/13th-sign-of-the-zodiac/13th-sign-of-the-zodiac/ ) "Mirror, mirror, subservient TWIN" "To find another plane, or just a shadow of a man Are you my brother, you look like me " a big part of the lyrics corespond with the legend about Gemini ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gemini_twins ) |

hmm i think i see something interesting in the lirycs "I'm a carnal, organic ANAGRAM. Human flesh instead of written LETTERS" "The CHARACTERS i am, made into a WORD complete, then i'll be the new norm." "a human PUZZLE for all to scorn. No face. No back. Directionless. My scarred edition i'll display; THE ORGANIC WORD FOR NOTHINGNESS" if you get all the starting letters from the parts of the body in the lyrics (Bones, Veins, Eyes, Ribs, Skin, Ears, Mouth) there is a few anagrams that you can come up with, but the closest one is VERMES (no B in it, but this is the closest one and it is conected to the rest of the lirycs) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vermes now if you look at the text you can see some hints about the hidden word... "my feet i crush. The flesh i cut away, so as to not produce the sound of their presence on rotten ground" ... worms have no feet and live in the rotten ground "a human PUZZLE for all to scorn. No face. No back. Directionless. My scarred edition i'll display; THE ORGANIC WORD FOR NOTHINGNESS"... worms dont have face or back, they are preaty much Directionless. "THE ORGANIC WORD FOR NOTHINGNESS" ... at least in my mother language (Bulgarian) if you say to someone - you are a worm- it is preaty close to - you are Nothing. i may be wrong but it sounds close and one more thing interesting in the lyrics... "Hexagonal bolts to fill my mouth, sharpened to deplete the creator of all violence; Without speech there will be no deceit" the creator of all violence is the tоnugе. The hexagonal bolts are sharpend to prevent movement of the tongue, so there will be no speech=there will be no deceit. |

| Meshuggah – The Exquisite Machinery Of Torture Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
the song is about the everyday life. How we stare in our daily ruteen. "A sustained static gaze, oblivious to surroundings. Empty, strained, unmoving eyes; Introverted, paralyzed" the disability to see or feel more then the common reality is inflicting a overload in the sistem of consciousness end subconsciousness. "I sense; The facilities of the bodily; Discorporated by the light All my pleas; denied By my psychological enemy The inner light unseen" we can feal that there is something more than this reality, but the social lines keep us tied to here and now (jobs, family...) "Minds lit like candles, by rejected senses and emotions. Tearing flames, born in mind; Creations of self deception. Strained, not to lose the grip - Humans locked in the new disease. (the new disease is the fear of loosing the grip on reality) A light by eyes unseen has come to burn us clean." A terminal journey to relieve cognition of Ability the only way out from this condition of DISability (to see the light) is death. so we are put on trail, and we are sentansed guilty... "I... I was never reprieved Now I know the sentence of me exquisite, internal machinery of torture " |
