Ok, this is what I take away from this song. "The knowledge that seeking the favor another means the murder of self" is the opening line...To me this means that people know when they ask others for help it destroys their pride. Then the song goes on to say, "This is the resolution, the end of all progress, the death of evolution, it bleeds all life away" This means that because of this knowledge people resolve to never ask for help, which in turn means they will never progress, evolve, and eventually could kill them. Then the "silence leads us to streams of solace" part I think talks about how if you dont ask for help you will be fine in the short term but then the "brooks that bubble sounds of torture" part talks about how this comfort will soon go away when you find you really did need help. "This is the art of ruin" or this is how people ruin their lives, by not asking for help.
