Lyrics Meshuggah – Rational Gaze

Squint your eyes to see clearly. Blur reality to make
it real
Let focus go from your deceiving eyes to know what’s
been concealed

To see the fine grain, to read the hidden words
The context of parallel truth — Devoid of
fragmentation

Our light-induced image of truth — Filtered blank of
its substance
As our eyes won’t adhere to intuitive lines
Everything examined, Separated, one thing at a time
The harder we stare the more complete the
disintegration. Dissolution

Eyes re-opened, Reasoning focalized, Receptors
activated

Perspectives distorted
The ladder beyond our grasp
The twin-headed serpent forever hidden
Where’s the true knowledge
Where engines of the sane & insanity merge
The clarity. The unity

Reality untouchable, transparent, invisible
to our fixed, restricted fields of vision
Existence taken for granted. Absolute

Possessed, owned, controlled
By the common sense-infected rational gaze
Onward forever we walk among the ignorant
