What a fucking day

[barriermetal]

[barriermetal]

Omega

OMEGA

Ignite, feel, combust Clear your mind, deviate from the bounds of thought into feeling Open your heart to what we've all been concealing A trust built from underneath us Integrate yourself and come closer

I can feel it inching closer (A trust built from underneath us) I can feel we're getting closer (Strengthen these bonds, come closer)

Omega, to bring us home at last To reunite after so long held apart An ending to give rise to a new beginning Flowing together in this perpetual metamorphosis Don't fear (Don't fear, don't fear the unknown) We are but wiping away sand from our unity It was never lost, only buried Shed your skin Welcome this beautiful death Beautiful birth

[barriermetal]

New Evolution

We recreate, surrender our present selves Beyond the walls of doubt and uniformity Let go of the weight of the past to Open the gates to the undefined Here and now our potential unbound With the jaws of perception liquefied With open arms, embrace the dawn of your lucidity Our crescendo to the absence of time

Come with me to the edge of reality And let's evolve as one into infinity Won't you join us at the edge of reality As we evolve as one

So can you tell me what it means to be human? Can you tell me exactly why you're alive? Can't you feel the perfection? Tell me you feel what we all have in common

Can you tell me what it means to be human? Can you tell me exactly why you're alive? Can't you feel the perfection? Tell me you feel what I feel inside

Break through the chain of self-judgment Reconnect with your inner sight Make your ripple in this ocean of memories As you project your truth from the inside

Project your truth from the inside

The love That lives through us all Is only an intention away One moment, one choice What will you do with today?

[barriermetal]

The Web

What a ride, what a secret to hide Held in place by the illusion of time We are insects Stuck in the web of our own collective dream

We are the conscious vertices Within the inter-dimensional network Tethered to each other by the fibers of life

Every thought, every feeling Decides the frequency we choose to experience A constellation of sentient forms Our minds interwoven

Come forth Together, we cannot be restrained

[barriermetal]

Reunion

I, the Zero, the One

I surrender to eternity Like a black hole collapsing unto itself The feeling of home will pull me through this Aperture into the heavenly realms

Flesh stripped away reveals the light of my animation Divine blood flowing back into the heart of all I stare through these eternal eyes Accelerating toward the absolute

I, the Zero, the One I am everything there is and ever was

Oblivion, we meet again How warm and familiar the arms of your embrace Guiding me home, if only for a moment Guiding me back to where it all began

Oblivion, we meet again Dear oblivion, we meet again

Out of sight, into Mind Into the moment Empty, but with such fullness The perfection, the only awareness The source of creation

[barriermetal]

Mind at Large

Silent night, oh silent night Six senses electrified The vibrations contort as my awareness enters Into the fire of an intangible eye

I arrive at the infinite present The inward spatial dimension

Spiraling deeper into the origin of consciousness I gaze upon the astral glow, drawn into the roots of creation In silence, I hear the voice of truth Wordless, shapeless, listen

Untouched by the hands of time These ancient whispers of collective knowledge I have entered the shared mind I bear witness to the mind at large

Two steps above, two steps above To the antecedent of thought I stand above, I soar above The confines of fear And in this instant, I feel Arachne's gentle vibratory touch Raising my frequency

Greeting me, preceding me Sharing her knowledge of this higher reality (We're never alone) At the origin of me is the origin of everything All that is, interconnected in her hallowed labyrinth

There is no other way One observed history In the mold of limitless possibility There is no other way One observed history In this moment, we choose what becomes of this

Riding the web

[barriermetal]

Dead Words

Can you hear me? Please tell me you can hear me Dear God I can't be alone I'm finally here, I'm finally here But not a soul in sight seems to be anywhere near I verbalize, only to be met by a pair of blank eyes Feels like I'm wasting my breath again

Feels like I'm wasting my breath

Programmed, homogenized Blinded by the veil of a lifetime of lies Led by the shepherds Into the valley of the dark

So I have come In an attempt to illuminate Paralyzing fear, our most deadly creation

Dissolving a shroud of self-ignorance Bringing to light the reality of the unconscious Our perspectives collide Waves lost to the wind from the inside

I keep trying but I can't break through Dead words to deaf ears The truth only enters as far as the mind Is ready to hear So can you hear me? Tell me, can you hear me? So can you hear me? Oh tell me you can hear these dead words

[barriermetal]

Moment of Clarity

Suspended in endless time This dormant serpent lies coiled within me Trying to feel its way out of this stasis But where to begin?

There has to be a purpose There has to be a point to all of this The patterns run too deep The voices won't let me sleep I see the edges of the tunnel that's restricted my vision Slowly coming into focus My adopted, limiting thoughts Begin to fade into oblivion

Who is the witness to these thoughts I call my own? Where is the substance to this life that I've been shown? Reach through the veil, I can feel you watching Expose the truth surrounding me

Synapses reconstructing, I internalize reality I've discovered the key

I'm overcome by a familiar warmth As suddenly it all makes sense

Awake I feel why I'm alive How blind I've been to purpose (Through soulless eyes) While Mother's been here all along Her beauty, her perfection How far we have strayed (How far we've strayed away) I hear The Way, I know The Way We are the only way

[barriermetal]

Lost in Illusion

Inertia I feel your iron grip take hold of me This ego yearns for sovereignty

Sign after sign passing me by Not for me, not for me, I've got someone to be With a voice inside my head that says I'm living a lie Look away, look away, there's just too much to see I cling tightly to my selfish needs Blinded in this matrix of my programmed beliefs

I'm imprisoned By conceptualization of thought Separating myself from the whole

Warden, oh warden Where have you left the key To free myself from this bitter, lonely reality? A self-constructed cell A self-constructed Hell

Sign after sign passing me by Not for me, not for me, I've got someone to be With a voice inside my head that says I'm living a lie Look away, look away, there's just too much to see Everything so meaningless, my personal fiction Terminally drifting here in my world of endless contradiction

Inertia I feel your iron grip take hold of me This ego yearns for sovereignty Disconnected Yet I feel right at home Alone inside, so alone

I'm tearing at these walls that surround me Something's got to break Holding on for redemption, for some holy escape Some kind of light at the end of the tunnel Whatever it might be I can feel it calling me, so warden, Where have you left the key?

[barriermetal]

Preincarnate

My true self revealed In the absence of all but thought Awareness itself Is the light that fills the void

I feel the weight of the infinite in this Endless moment of indecision Frozen by the polarity Of heaven and Earth pulling at me

Wipe me clean, let this life unfold Through this body let my Self be known Wipe me clean, let this life unfold Through this body let my Self be known

Separation beckons me To the sphere of self-discovery I know I must return As a beacon for humanity I feel Gaia calling me back Into her fertile realm of creation Urging the source toward manifestation

Wipe me clean, let this life unfold Through this body let my Self be known Wipe me clean, let this life unfold Through this body let my Self be known

Can you hear it collapsing? Can you feel it collapsing?

Can you hear it collapsing? Cause I can feel myself breaking away From Father's arms into Mother's domain

Separation beckons me To the sphere of self-discovery Separation beckons me As a beacon

To free humanity from this death march Toward a future of lobotomized subordination To show them all their true potential To heal the wounds of our beloved Earth I sacrifice this transcendent existence For limitation, mind-body confined Separated from the One true reality As I enter the plane of physicality
