Traveller Lyrics

Existential matters ignite in circulation.
A motion to bend, towards the swift end.
Encompassing a visionary plead to defend.

Liberation of the five senses, the ego phrase.
Metamorphosis of perceptual principles.
Platonic illumination of Natures' quincunx.
Which hemisphere is mine to hold?

Traveller of the x-scape, through endomorphism of time.
Hybrid existence - through spirituality endures the reality.
Traveller of the x-scape, through the gravisphere of wisdom.
Hyper potency - the predominant endurance through infinity.

The iridescence of the solar glimpse.
Through the eyes of Himm and Hippo.
Just another sole strike of the sun.
A stone in the hand or the thought of it?

Traveller of the x-scape, through endomorphism of time.
Hybrid existence - through spirituality endures the reality.
Traveller of the x-scape, through the gravisphere of wisdom.
Hyper potency - the predominant endurance through infinity.

Thoughts of a thinker.
Infinity of numbers.
Numbered thoughts.
Thoughts of infinity.

"Numbers are the essence of all things and the metaphysical
principle of rational order in the universe" (Pythagoras).

Liberation of the five senses, the ego phrase.
Everlasting metamorphosis of perceptual principles.

Cover art for Traveller lyrics by Borknagar

Obviously one of their more philosophical/mathermatical songs lyricswise. Only a mathematician or astrologist or someone like that could come close to figuring out these lyrics. But I just thought I'd say, that this is my favourite song on Epic.

I think the music does a better job of conveying the ideas than the lyrics do. Carefully listen to the music (ever technical, layered detail of it) while remembering that this song quotes Pythagoras. If you don't quite get it after that, well, education probably just isn't your thing.

I'm not going to say anything about the previous poster's line "mathematician or astrologist or someone like that" other than to point out that it doesn't take a rocket scientist (or mathematician) to notice how numbers permeate all of nature.

"Numbers are the essence of all things and the metaphysical principle of rational order in the universe" That's the meaning of not only this song, but the entire album.
