lyrics
Constant transfer, energy
The underlying fear of what’s unknown
Provides the tether for the waking state for now
[Uplink severed]
The second coming of an outbreak
Corruption then becomes the norm
Archival memories have been sealed
[Off the grid]
It’s unknown what they reveal
Steady droning of surrounding drives
Blasts of air remind me that I’m still alive
Eyes roll back, the cortex taking over
It’s as if we never needed you, take back our world
[Uplink severed]
Final convergence of the complex
Our very lives become the sprawl
Archival memories have been sealed
[Off the grid]
Now I know what they reveal
Constantly replaying
Moments that define
Gradients within
All we know is this
All we know it grows
The tendencies, they synchronize
Partial artefact of what once was
The tendrils lie disconnected
System unaware of our presence
We feel so scared of what's out there
Darkness preys it all away
(System)
System heals from absences of diluted veins
(Diluted)
The same can be said for you
(System)
The same can be said for all of us
(All that is done)
Should I feel nothing, should it be everything?
Final images, lasting memories
Hold on to what you’ve got, it dissipates
The underlying fear of what’s unknown
Provides the tether for the waking state for now
[Uplink severed]
The second coming of an outbreak
Corruption then becomes the norm
Archival memories have been sealed
[Off the grid]
It’s unknown what they reveal
Steady droning of surrounding drives
Blasts of air remind me that I’m still alive
Eyes roll back, the cortex taking over
It’s as if we never needed you, take back our world
[Uplink severed]
Final convergence of the complex
Our very lives become the sprawl
Archival memories have been sealed
[Off the grid]
Now I know what they reveal
Constantly replaying
Moments that define
Gradients within
All we know is this
All we know it grows
The tendencies, they synchronize
Partial artefact of what once was
The tendrils lie disconnected
System unaware of our presence
We feel so scared of what's out there
Darkness preys it all away
(System)
System heals from absences of diluted veins
(Diluted)
The same can be said for you
(System)
The same can be said for all of us
(All that is done)
Should I feel nothing, should it be everything?
Final images, lasting memories
Hold on to what you’ve got, it dissipates

Surreal does not even properly convey the emotion and utmost perfection of this work. A combination of both polarizing beauty and harshness, Kardashev continues to embark on defining the boundaries of the melodic, progressive death scene.
