Nachash Lyrics

Subtle a waves in motion.
Shaping spirals upon the ground.
Where our lives are going.
Stuck in the old forms.

Here we go. Our minds recoil.
Out of control, in this spinning wheel.
Starting to face what we feed and what we can't ignore.

Starting to swell.
This is bigger than you.
I thought it could be something beautiful.
It's beginning to feel like we're part of something big.

When I change I signal that some days it's feeling cold.
Fractured my sleep.
Now this shaking sky means the shows have started.
And we await to carry away all the promises.

I feel it, take it and you're open
And I feel it taking you over.

I'm feeling you'll make it.
Your colors all fade to gray.
Here in the light of my darkest day.
Silent.

I settle my thoughts so maybe
I can relax into my sigh.

My mind's always window shopping,
but I can't afford the payment.
I feel like I've wasted my last chance
to try

Wait. I'm here in this moment
Pivotal moment
It's taking me over.

Starting to swell.
This is bigger than you.
I thought it could be something beautiful.
It's beginning to feel like we're part of something real.

Cover art for Nachash lyrics by Karnivool

There is a large amount of heritage behind us. The consumptive habits of humans fall into old predictable patterns, but soon we are going to have to face the destruction and problems that our usual ways have brought.

These systems are so much larger than any of us, they are all consuming. The aggregate effects of our consumptive ways of life are becoming clear. Our normal ways of doing things are bringing about problems like never before. Climate disaster, and unrest are becoming increasingly common. "The shows have started" and these disasters come at the cost of the promises we have been made about the future. Society cannot go on without changing. It isn't going to be as smooth as we in the first world have been led to believe. The impending problems are large and daunting and it feels hopeless to struggle against. It feels depressing.

But wait,

We are the ones alive on the planet at this pivotal moment. The future is lost without us. The time in which we exist makes our impact critical. There has never been a better time to stand up and make yourself heard. There has never been a more important time to make yourself known.

Here are the real lyrics, or at least closer to the definitely not correct lyrics posted above:

Subtle waves in motion Shaping spirals upon the ground Where are eyes are drawn A circular door forms

Here we go our minds recoil Out of control in this spinning wheel We're starting to face what we've feared What we can't ignore

It's starting to swell This is bigger than you Who thought it could be Something beautiful It's beginning to feel Like we're part of something real

Red eyes shift To signal the sun raises its Phoenix call to fracture my sleep Now the shaking sky Means the shows just starting We'll awake to carry the weight Of the promises I feel it taking over I feel it taking over

I'm feeling opaque as My colours all fade to grey Here in the light of my darkest day It's silent I center my thoughts so maybe I can relax into my sigh My minds always window shopping But I can't afford the payments Feel like I've wasted my last chance To try Wait Here in this moment A pivotal moment It's taking me over

It's starting to swell This is bigger than you Who thought it could be Something beautiful It's beginning to feel Like we're part of something real
