LUNOCODE LYRICS

1. Sin Cara

I look around and I can't recognize anything
A strange world appears
Ambition and greed rule the world
The ambition of the few suffocates us all
Pushing our faces into the mud

Is this the destiny of Humankind?
A world of obliterated personalities
Robots without a face
Cogs in the machinery
We live in a time of no respect for the other
Take my hand and let everyone make their choice

We're forced to live under constant pressure
In mutual indifference
Choked by our own lives
As time goes by
Ants, all alike, in single file
Busy in our anthill
As the same words and stereotypes
Hit us
And nobody cares

Is this the destiny of Humankind?
A world of obliterated personalities
Robots without a face
Cogs in the machinery
We live in a time of no respect for the other
Take my hand and let everyone make their choice

In this world full of beings all alike
You will not lose your sweetness and humanity
Your every smile brings with it
All the innocence of a child
And all the happiness of being alive
Take me away with you, we will live in our world of
Green and blue

[QUOTE from Philip K. Dick:]
You will be required to do wrong no matter where you go.
It is the basic condition of life, to be required to violate your own identity.

2. Heart Of The World

I’m staring at the sunset in silence on this autumn evening
On the top of this hill sitting in the grass
Everything is whispering Infinity
Life on this Earth, the meaning of the pain
I have in my heart
I’m searching for something sacred that
I left behind years ago

I breathe deeply the fresh air while I fall
And I lose myself in my soul

We will learn to march together
Under the rays of sunshine
We will learn to listen to each other
Without hate in our minds
We will find ourselves united
And we'll let the light surround us
In the heart of the World

A cold wind is blowing like a storm
I can feel it caressing my skin
It seems that the breathing of the Universe
Is violently shaking the Earth
Playing the game of Life we all lose
We raise our own walls and close ourselves in
Then picture each other as enemies
Wasting our time on Earth

I breathe deeply the fresh air while I fall
And I lose myself in my soul
Space and Time are flowing through my mind
And I can see mankind sing in Celestial Harmony

We will learn to march together
Under the rays of sunshine
We will learn to listen to each other
Without hate in our minds
We will find ourselves united
And we'll let the light surround us
In the heart of the World

3. Indifference

Mothers wrapped by the heavy drapes of pain
Faded into the sun as mirages of a nightmare
Trailing along the streets of broken lives
Sobbing for the despair that breaks their hearts

On this ground soaked in the blood of their children
The fool’s scythe harvests the hearts of the innocents
And they slowly melt under a pitiless light
While insane jackals fight over their prey

Wars between worlds on the same Earth
Bullets hiss and bombs explode
Bullets hiss and bombs explode
Wars between worlds on the same Earth
Maiming our bodies and the face of the planet

On this pale blue dot events memorable,
Criminals and heroes, fighting face to face,
Slaughter and destruction, cultures and beliefs
have given way to each other and coexisted in the same ages

A whirl of instants, people, feelings and relations
As photograms of a single movie passed and dissolved
Their singularity got lost in the void
Diluted through the short history of our home

Wars between worlds on the same Earth
That ignore their resemblances
That ignore their resemblances
Wars between worlds on the same Earth
Caught in their subjective truth, in their sullen motivations

We’re the slightest indistinguishable part
In the immense, silent cosmic darkness
Lost through the dust of time
Under the indifferent glance of the Universe

Shouts are shattered on the centuries’ silence
that repeat again the same mistakes with blind perseverance
Altars raised in honour of the god of madness
Behind which hide the most grim motivations and desires

We’re the slightest indistinguishable part
In the immense, silent cosmic darkness
Lost through the dust of time
Under the indifferent glance of the Universe

We’re adrift in a sea of stars
A grain of sand on the cosmic shore
Dust in the wind of time

We are obsessed by supremacy
by glory, money and power
We claim to be unique
Lost in the foolish conceit of immortality

[Quote by Carl Sagan:]
Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.
The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another.

4. Misty Visions Of An Ordinary Day

Dull, massive, cold and warm at the same time
In the shadow ways of light
in the sun dark shapes
Papers on the walls, varnish on the asphalt
A veil of uselessness covers everything

Look at me, don’t you see me?
I can feel your presence flowing around me
Look at me, don’t you see me?
I can feel your castles hiding me in their shadows

The leaden air greedy for
Thoughts emerging from their souls
Smiles at those who rush through your veins
Planets moving around
Their intersecting orbits
Clash into each other without a glance
They feel alive only when colliding

Rain, glare and fog blur my sight
Uproar colliding with my senses is rousing me
Those fools can’t escape, they get stuck in your cables
So you imprison their souls in your chaotic dance

Look at them, don’t you see their eyes?
They can feel your presence flowing all around
Listen to them, don’t you hear their cries?
They can feel your castles spreading their shadows

The leaden air greedy for
Thoughts emerging from their souls
Smiles at people who rush through your veins
People flowing on crossing paths
dead men walking who feel alive just when they collide

5. The Origin Of Matter And Mind

[Part I: On Matter And Mind]

[Instrumental]

[Part II: High]

A strange sensation runs through my veins for the first time
I've never felt like this
I don't know what this means
I woke up in this cold place containing no one but me

It's all so empty outside
Between you and me
O blue and silent sun

And suddenly
Everything is becoming weightless
My hands are floating in front of me and
I watch them paralyzed

A growing sense of panic
Wraps around my throat
I just don't know what's happening
I just feel imprisoned here

I don't know what to do while
The blue sun transforms
Into a pulsating light
Getting closer and closer to me
I feel my chest exploding
And my eyes breaking into millions of shards

In every shard I see my face
Before it breaks again

A rhythmic sound out of the dark
A drum from the depths of my heart
I see billions of shards floating around
By the rule of one hundred and thirty-seven

They form sequences unknown
And the blue sun transforms
And becomes an eye scanning darkly
Through the eons
While I flow through it

[Part III: The Cosmic Architect]

Out of the darkness
Out of the silent chaos
Black letters emerge
An artist's signature in a pale scarlet white field
Powerful light burned in the past
I'll never catch a glimpse of it again
But something is emerging from the cracks of my mind

The origin of matter and life
The fractal nature of a mind in the mind
A drop in the ocean that makes the water shine
A pale simulacrum of a cosmic architect

The light is changing
The light is standing still now
Pale shades of another reality are forming
Crystallized energy
Encoding the structure of the world
Deep inside the transcendental sequence
A perfect circle of unities in a field of noughts

The origin of matter and life
The fractal nature of a mind in the mind
A drop in the ocean that makes the water shine
A pale simulacrum of a cosmic architect

The eye opened wide contains another eye
In this eye an eye and another eye again
Ideas moving to the center of the spiral
Creating space and time
Eternity and infinity
The birth of the universe
From nothingness

The origin of matter and life
The fractal nature of a mind in the mind
Decode the structure of the world by
Wandering the fractal design
The sequence transforms at every move

The eye opened wide contains another eye
In this eye an eye and another eye again
Ideas moving to the center of the spiral
Creating space and time
Eternity and infinity
Creation is something beyond
The limits of
Consciousness,
Will and representation
It's inevitability

[Part IV: Tree Of Life]

Flowing through the air
Like an ethereal presence
Suspended high above the water
Alone
With nothing but the wind
Whispering in my ears
No sounds, no signs
No one but me, here

I fly through the clouds and higher
Where there's just the sky
Nothing but sparkles and reflections
Come into sight
Down there's just the sea
A drop of water in the cosmic landscape
Where the seed of life will shortly sprout
Even if I don't know why, I know this

The drop is shining
And the sphere is cracking
As the seed falls in the abyss
At the speed of light

Wandering the void
Searching for some signs of life
Now I float on the surface of the water
Tired of flying, tired of everything
A dead world is what I'm in
I am alone and lost here

I'm floundering in the waves now
The weight of this cerulean sky
A heavy burden on my shoulders
Keeps me down
I struggle not to fall
In the abyss opening under me
Only my screams rip this vast silence
That permeates this world so sad and cruel

The abyss under me is shining
And the sphere is cracking
As the seed suddenly sprouts
And time flies at the speed of light
And the flower blossoms
And the fish swims
As life conquers the Earth
And the bird flies
While the Tree of Life puts down its roots in the Earth
[2x]

[Part V: Crossing The Line]

Clear sky, silent beach
Shining sun and pleasant heat
On my skin, on my face
The world is calm and peaceful
The sound of my footsteps on the soil
The sole sound flowing through the solid air
They should be singing now
Those afternoon birds
While the sun is going down
But where are they now?

The sand is pleasantly hot still
As the stars are lighting up in the sky
Now before my eyes
Or in my eyes I see
Light bulbs, lights, lights!

Strange flares at the end of the World
Lights! lights!
Lights come and go
To the horizon or in my mind
While static becomes dynamic

The gray turns to color
The image is focused now
Odd words, forms and correlations emerge
From the back of my mind
Overwhelming me like a tidal wave
Everything I see hides something else
Billions and billions of things
I see patterns now
Threads, semantic

Now I know what's happening
I'm crossing the Line

I've seen things, it has been like I was him
I've seen it all through his eyes
I've experienced the moment
Of crossing the Line
The dawn of consciousness
The sparkle of self-awareness
Inevitability
I've seen it all, now I know it all
It's all so clear now

The Universe originates from the mind
The Mind gathers energy
Energy crystallizes into matter
Amino acids, DNA, atoms, molecules
The Building blocks of life

Matter organizes itself to create
A cradle for the mind
A birthplace for
Consciousness
And when the mind is born

It creates thought
And thought creates the Universe

[Part VI: Albert II]

Mind over Matter
Consciousness over Mind
Mind over Consciousness
Matter over Mind
To Think is just to Create
To Create is just to Think
The Universe is a thought
Thought encapsulates the Universe
I'm in the Universe
I'm in a Thought
But… whose Thought?..
Whose Thought?..

[Talking:]
[Flight controller 1:] He’s dead
[Flight controller 2:] Who cares? He was just a monkey, we’ve got to reach the stars: we have to do experiments
