Cover art for Dichotomy lyrics by Becoming the Archetype

This song tells a story of the human race turning away from their God,"sewing their eyes shut to hide from the light". It may be referring to the scientific revolution and how it was a step towards secularism --- science being the creation of man. The only Biblical similarity I can find is that of Sodom and Gomorrah turning their backs on God, and ultimately being destroyed.
