lyrics

It was an early Monday, cold and dark, in the dead of winter. I had received a mysterious email, written by a man who called himself "Dr. They", to this day I do not know his first name or how he found me. I guess his proposal was too bizarre for me to ever naturally ask. He claimed that he had been choosing subjects at random for a new musical therapy experiment. He created the prototype for an immersive audio virtual reality machine that converts your current state of being into musical form, expressing your mood lyrically, melodically, and rhythmically. He apparently had cultivated a group of followers, and wanted me to call him to have a conversation about meeting with the group. Obviously I could not resist. I don’t believe in a god or gods, but if they exist, by the grace of the heavenly emperors yonder, I found myself at a research facility in Berlin, Germany the following week, and I was about to become immersed inside of the contained reality of my first song.


Forget the lights at the top of the stage.

Forget the heading in bold at the top of the page.

I promise this life's not a cage.

And I promise you mourning comes with age.

Forget the notion that we live.

In a trudging broken down machine with nothing to give.

I promise we can't change it right away.

And I promise if we try and fail we'll live to see the day.



We put too much faith in our own self-reflections.

We think the whole world wants to see our projections.
