Emeth - Stratum lyrics

The sensation of being dead while alive Reflects a dual thrust of their present being Atrocity eluded their intended end Waiting was a path leading to their missed destiny of d**h No longer a sequence, but an unsettling alliance Memories of unbridled suffering Brutal suppression of the inherent humanity The shadow of the body unrelenting in its exposure This imperative and universal aim is a single-minded attempt to reduce The sphere of the mind Reduced to the pondering of it's material other The somatic stratum The wretched physical existence refers to this world of bodies The ability to refuse participation To impose false divisions upon our species Those who would define the new discourse Tended to erect insurmountable walls A discourse designed to intimidate and control A discourse of disempowerment Constructed as a realm so incommensurate and inaccessible
