The Narrowing Of Meaning Lyrics

Shifting paradigms
Trying to figure out
The meaning through the lies
An endless maze that lies
Beyond all reason
With no exit towards the light

Shifting through the motionless
Oceans without waves to carry me through
To you
A guide to lead me through these barren lands
Far from an empty mind
That plays at sowing seeds of void meanings and signs

Sailing through the motionless
Oceans without waves to carry me through
To you
A guide to silence words that wrought the day
That try and convince me that I've strayed
From your broken path of clay

With no substance to be made
A sense of purpose slowly fades
From view
A fear to start anew
Not knowing what to eschew

Not deterred
By this programming
By your tyranny
And now I've chosen to remain
Free from within your orders to abstain
My self

From my wondering mind
From my doubting sighs
Awakened
The unknown within
A specter that has been

Sifting through the motionless
Oceans without waves to carry it through
To you
A guide to silence words that wrought the day
That try and convince me that
I've strayed
From your broken path of clay

With no substance to be made
A sense of purpose slowly fades
From your sense of worth
Rebuild my horizons
Renew its lost mirth
Seek a dimension past the glass

A hammer that destroys these walls of empty words and cries
That repurposes our fragile surface lives
A study deep into the history of what we are
The words that comprehend our reality

Understanding nature doesn't bow to our desires
Or to our designs, our memories
A state within a state that exists only in our minds
That concepts intertwine the you and me

Horizons span for
A million miles ahead
An open sea of dread
But know that
All this creation we have bled
Are verbs at our behest

Leading us
To you
A guide to silence words that wrought the day
That try and convince me that I've strayed
From your broken path of clay
With no substance to be made
A sense of purpose slowly fades

Now see
My overcoming
Of your restricting needs
For weak is
Who on other feeds
A dependence on their knees

No longer feeling motionless
In this endless sea that washes
Through me
Feeling free
Its waves have begun
To carry on
Becoming one with every I

A unity of the self
With tears I leave this holding cell
A redemption from this hell
And going into loneliness
I perish into my creation
A much-needed isolation

Cover art for The Narrowing Of Meaning  lyrics by Avandra

I think this is about freedom from chains that one once felt they would never escape from. Sometimes these are literal restraints & other times these are more metaphysical but either way this need to break away is always present.
