This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Still alive
All knowing eye
Beneath your stream of words
Your rapid stream of words
Though none will
Ever live to share
The radiant stream
The promised hues
From which your picture fell
Re-seal the components from atom hearts
Revert, non-owner of worlds
As uncommunication becomes the manifest
Our alien, architectural skeletons in unison collapse
Death rode these silent caravans
And steered them to the ?(o/a)?I'm of the world.
Their diaries and withered letters
All devoted to the art of dying
The enterprise, academy
The crafts held in our hands
All devoted to the art of dying
No room to arrange
The final row of masks
Drenched in chameleon-ink
For the grand charade
The tongues that burn in you
The slowly altered language
That colonized your heartland
Advanced through broken doors
And they still believe in you
They seem to see
So many things
Booked in your pestilent eye
Your stale lids, your iris punctured
By tongues licking a lie
The enterprise, wolvenlore
The cursed seed of man
Plunged through the tunnels of uncreation
We reach out to move the landmark,
Hands seeping down from the chronicles of time
The quill now blunt
The scribe devoured
All knowing eye
Beneath your stream of words
Your rapid stream of words
Though none will
Ever live to share
The radiant stream
The promised hues
From which your picture fell
Re-seal the components from atom hearts
Revert, non-owner of worlds
As uncommunication becomes the manifest
Our alien, architectural skeletons in unison collapse
Death rode these silent caravans
And steered them to the ?(o/a)?I'm of the world.
Their diaries and withered letters
All devoted to the art of dying
The enterprise, academy
The crafts held in our hands
All devoted to the art of dying
No room to arrange
The final row of masks
Drenched in chameleon-ink
For the grand charade
The tongues that burn in you
The slowly altered language
That colonized your heartland
Advanced through broken doors
And they still believe in you
They seem to see
So many things
Booked in your pestilent eye
Your stale lids, your iris punctured
By tongues licking a lie
The enterprise, wolvenlore
The cursed seed of man
Plunged through the tunnels of uncreation
We reach out to move the landmark,
Hands seeping down from the chronicles of time
The quill now blunt
The scribe devoured

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
I hate making guesses as to the meanings of songs, but this one really intrigues me. Great song, by the way. Take note of who wrote the lyrics... Sundin. A bit out of the norm, but definitely not bad.
Anyways, as to my idea about the lyrics... I think it's about nuclear warfare. The name "Atom Heart" gives a bit of a clue. Also worth mentioning is 243.5. That's the atomic weight of Plutonium, which is the material used in atomic weapons. There are also some lines in the lyrics that could really relate to the nuclear theme. "Death rode these silent caravans and steered them to the rim of the world." "The enterprise, academy the crafts held in our hands all devoted to the art of dying" "The enterprise, wolvenlore the cursed seed of man plunged through the tunnels of uncreation"
Just my thoughts... that's what struck me as soon as I listened to the song.
There is a very Lovecraft-like feel to this song, I think.
+1 to mr brightside.
