SIRENS LYRICS

1. Surge

Effervesce; dissolving into grains
Coalescing light burns within my veins
Flickering images and recurring frames
I'm losing faces, I'm losing names

Evolution,
I'm changing shape
Shattering into fragments
Recoagulate
Collapse back to my human state.

We are all living in a world
on the brink of unity; a community.

All I,
All I want to do is fucking surge, swell, and stretch: Augmentation.
Suspend all of my own weaknesses
Float limitlessly, floating effortlessly.
I am hivemind; separated
Hearing swarms of voices converging
Bind limitlessly, binded effortlessly unite.

I feel alive,
all aligned inside,
ignite.

Sifting through memories so bottomless.

Effervesce; dissolving into grains
Coalescing light burns within my veins
Flickering images and recurring frames
I'm losing faces, I'm losing names

Evolution,
I'm changing shape
Shattering into fragments
Recoagulate
Collapse back to my human state.

2. Drift

Mid-day your legs shake
We call that tech ache
A rank of cords plugged into your arm
No alarm, no warning signs
Drift strikes; withering, mindless, and violent

Deep inside my mind I find the time (to uncover, discover, and breathe)
I'm no longer free (rip out the circuits inside of me)
Lost to drift in thoughts of what I could be

We've done all we can
Drift unfolds and we won't survive
We are no longer safe from what we have spawned
Sirens blare as we run and hide
We're at fault we have lost control

Mid-day your legs shake
We call that tech ache
A rank of cords plugged into your arm
No alarm, no warning signs
Drift strikes; withering, mindless, and violent

Deep inside I find the time

They just continue to drift

3. Drone

I've dreamt of a digital revolution.
Drifting through the cords.

I will transform them to drones.
Mindlessly withering, restlessly complacent drones

Line by line, code by code,
logic and syntax, my dream explodes.

.exe

plant a seed
tearing the fabric
back on tech fixation
glitch in, glitch out
chill skin, self doubt
static stagnance
shake throughout the framework.
Bewildered vex besets, nervousness beyond pins and needles.
strung throughout a void of recollection

Progressive expansion of misery
I've dreamt of a digital revelation,
drifting through the cords.
I will transform them to drones.

Restlessly complacent drones.

Line by line, code by code,
logic and syntax, my dream explodes.

Behold, perceive.

Monitor the expanse

Radiance, ambience, gossamer,
How did I get here? 
Elation soaring,
coasting through it,
streaming inwards,
widening lucidity,
bring to light a new level.
Open doors,
I feel the strongest urge to brave and explore this; 
impression of familiar feelings.
Horror, awe, so breathtakingly vexed,
consumed by fatigue and pressure,
Give in,
euphoria drifts to dread
sickness plagues throughout
tethered fate, expanding throes.

Rip out these circuits, inside of me.

I've dreamt of a digital
Revelation,
Drifted through the cords
I've transformed into a drone

I've dreamt of a digital
Revolution.
Revalation.

The burden of guilt crushes my throat.
I've fixed the world, but ruined myself.
My virus, my vision, my future, my mind;
Disassembled by something that I've designed.

4. Pendulous

Monumental construction
A city built of marble
Endless war, constant struggle
Monarchies disintegrate

Vanished throughout a sea of numbers
Driven to explore a brave new world
Separated; lost in history
Ensnared in a forgotten era

Each grain of sand; a fragile part of life
Our son has gone astray

They plea,
"Stop the tour."
He retorts, "I can't answer for
A child's drive to explore
And just completely ignore
The warning from Pendulous corp.
You'd been informed that the time lines would warp;
split from the connection, splits history with new direction."

"What can we do, what can be done
Can't we just stay back and look for our son?"
"Sorry to say but your chances are none
the pendulist—now his adventure's begun.
His adventure's begun! Told throughout the ages."

Recurring, burdening, thoughts of a past life
Future-bound, reappear, lost in a time line

Monumental construction
A city built of marble
Endless war, constant struggle
Monarchies disintegrate

I struggled to recover the future
I have forged the start of my existence
My edict back through the time line I belong to
Future-bound

Endless war, constant struggle
Monarchies disintegrate

Vanished throughout a sea of numbers
Driven to explore a brave new world
Separated; lost in history
Ensnared in a forgotten era

5. Ephyra

Translucent boundaries
Brand new territories
Wading without direction
Carved by natural selection
Wanderlust, free at last
Tentacles draped below
Endless darkness to explore
An eternity to coast for

Bioluminescent
Glimmering light in the core of the void
I am the sunlight
Bursting against the frigid abyss

Directions subjective
Bloom in collective
Bound by currents
obsessive connections

Aimlessly experiencing the elegance of our environment.

Frail membrane
Viscous to the touch

Beaming colors
Radiate from the palm of my hand

Translucent boundaries
Brand new territories,
Wading without direction
Carved by natural selection

Wanderlust, free at last
Tentacles draped below
Endless darkness to explore
An eternity to coast for

We just continue to
We just continue to
We just continue to
We just continue to
Drift

6. Macroscopic

[Instrumental]

7. Cloudbreak

(You're a capsule)
Borrowed from the ground
Forced into a lie
You create an assembly of thoughts
A network inside

Burrowed and ripped from your sleep
Taken away from the things
That you weren't able to keep

The days are numbered
We're watching closely
The time has come
The decision will be made

One day your vision will return

Burrowed and ripped from your sleep
Taken away from the things
That you weren't able to keep

Now at the crossroads
Will you grab control
And save yourself? (save yourself)
Have you not learned a lesson?
Being alive means changing your mind

Keep telling yourself
That if there's anything wrong
There's no need to worry
No need to think for yourself
[2x]

Oh!
And now there's nothing to be done with the rest of your life

Borrowed from the ground
Forced into a lie
You create an assembly of thoughts
A network inside

8. Unstable And Floating

Thoughts transform into growth of the mind
I unfold, break the mold, and then regain control
Congregate, initiate - create a visual projection
I've got a synapse of a newfound perception

A rush of blood to the head
Bound together thread by thread
Tripping over a flux of decisions
Seeking out answers decoding these visions

Thoughts transform into growth of the mind
I unfold, break the mold, and then regain control
Congregate, initiate - create a visual projection
I've got a synapse of a newfound perception

Spores disperse, my eyes widen
Thoughts unstable, uncommon
Higher-level thinking
Senses melting - I am awake

Disperse
[2x]

9. Swarm Dynamics

Transmitted memories
Thoughts ideas instantly

Nodes

Currents of data streamed
Connections formed aggressively
Thoughtlessly abusing
Interactive topology

Transmitted memories
Thoughts ideas instantly

A formation of channels
Accessed through technology
Constructed efficiency
Creation of harmony

We are unified by circuitry
We are unified by circuitry

Cultivate consciousness
Centralize sentience

Transmitted memories
Thoughts ideas instantly

Nodes

Currents of data streamed
Connections formed aggressively
Thoughtlessly abusing
Interactive topology

Fragmentize cultures
Isolate civilization
Divide population globally

Strengthen our intercommunication
Dilute physical relationships severing symbiosis

10. Medusae

Submerged, static figure
Sleep / motionless
Infinite sleep

rupturing tank,
trembling shards
my scorching eyes
waking up

neural overload
how many centuries have past?

eons and eons you've slept in that tank
locked away inside this memory bank
frozen in stasis, suspended in time
Centuries of advancement for humankind
I cannot except these words falsified
I demand proof what can you provide?
The answer surrounds us both it replied
From today's date to the buildings outside

Bewildered sleeper, gazing over a brand new earth.
Artificial stars, civilizations overhead
Cities dot the skies, shimmering lights beaming with life
Structures overgrown, empty homes forgotten cultures

eons and eons
frozen in stasis
locked away inside this memory bank

yesterday is now far behind
yesterday is now lost in time

towering spires, beacons of tech
scaling advance
vertically traveling upwards, bursting
arrival on foot driven by questions
crafted by my type
ascending molecularly

bustling port
foreign faces
minimalist
architecture

neural overload
how many centuries have past?

"eons and eons I've slept in a tank
locked away inside my memory bank
frozen in stasis, suspended in time
I hoped to wake up to a future sublime"
The future surrounds us all, they replied
The limitless bounds progressively wide
Magnitudes of journeying deep outside
Exploring what the universe can provide

Lucid wanderers, gazing over a brand new earth.
Artificial stars, civilizations neighboring
Cities dot the skies, shimmering lights beaming with life
Structures magnified, alien influenced design

But still even though I cheated time
awoke to find I still have my life
Decades separating me and my hyper sleeping family
And even though I could rebound
My life is now
My life is now and not rooted back on the ground
