Cover art for Gentle Time lyrics by Isis

Well i think cocoon is a huge play here. Reference to our way if life as is now. Most have and are given what we need ( hive is fed) but yet feel empty, searching to be whole ( fill my soul). We all believe there is only one way to happyness , through external gain or monetary ( one way in) . But after having " it all" there is still no end . The path is no more clearer or enlightening. The second "verse " if we call it that, at first appears to me to speak about self pleasure sexually but isnt tied down to just that. Something that feels good even tho its detrimental to your well being.. feeling empty and disconnected (hollowing) but drawing you in ( dares my soul). The sense of choas and destruction that ensues is the cocoon self imploding . The utopia we tried to build has instead collapsed ( inventions split cocoon) and after the dust settles , we will finally have a "gentle time".
