I may be flat out wrong. But, I always instantiate Iron Maiden songs into the first person perspective. I always feel they have something to say about the complexity of mental life, and speak in highly analogous ways about the arrangement, splay, flux of how (one) psyche inhabits the mind. I feel there is, in most cases, enough support for the impressions I get from Maiden songs. 'my telescope looks out into the stars tonight' equates to I am looking out through my peep hole at many others, miasmic darkness illuminated by infinite points of light, things being perceived illuminates a world which would be black without beings to illuminate it, 'a little speck of light', relatively, that is the speaker, 'seems twice the size tonight' is interesting, something along the idea of I squared, I am perceiving at double intensity or clarity, 'calculations are so fine': i have rationalized this feeling, i cannot deny it, it doesn't seem likely i am imagining it, 'can it be growing all the time': upon perceiving this exponentiation within myself, every time it seems more and more intense. To say, it would not be coherent to rationalize myself into some form of acceptance only to doubt the truth of this sensation on the next prompt. "it is happening", you do this every time. 'now i don't know what to do, and i can't believe its true' resumes this, 'for the hundreth time i check...' you get it. "now the fear starts to grow, as i check the computer (by this I think he means interface, the image before himself, and exponentiation goes wild as he is able to see the same phenomena happening behind the interface of others), "its happening take no other view" to mean yes, yes, you had better believe it, doubt is your enemy. And when you encounter another, this will be happening, an unaccountable collision course, sparks flying everywhere every sensation irrationalizable but present, and you better believe its true. What gets interesting, is the anger and pain of all those who remain. Maiden has an intricate view on the psyche. My stab
