"Machine Vision" I:Scintilla
Longing for visions, divisions to corrode
Spiritual efficiency to assume control
Songs of confession, repression to the bone
A synchronizing light pulse, a hypnotizing tone
Manipulation
Reduce the noise
Binarization
Fix and destroy
Drowning in the unseen
Scream a selfish warning
By whose grace are you saved?
In the slow degrade
In moral bankruptcy
By whose mercy are you freed?
Hollow chants of the unseen
Won't wipe dirty mouths clean
Steel assembly line, define the others' fate
Blind the believers, a blend of church and state
Who calls upon you, claim they shall be saved
We will all love you conform, submit, behave
Interpretation
A black and white
Examination
Project your light
A nuance detected, burnt hallow overthrown
Myth of light projected, can't erase your own shadow

"Toy Soldier" I:Scintilla
Stand against the sky
Force reasons to die
Till boots come untied
You'll try to believe his lie
Built beyond the archetype
Trick yourself into the fight
The soot and gun hide the night
Convince yourself that it's right
Master warhead puppetry
Undeserving idolatry
Inner circle loyalty
Make them flee their own country
Boy of the surge
Compliance won't make you a man
Now you've deciphered
The secret written in the sand
Now you understand
What rests in your hands
Clear and hold the land
By killing another man
Whose safety do you fight for?
Admit that you can't ignore
You don't trust those keeping score
Write letters to reassure
Gunshot rationality
Just a casual casualty
Just part of the strategy
But you're not setting them free
Sing of fires Sing of will
Sing to justify to kill
-bows out- Good bye.

Only that sometimes one has to see how truly horrible humanity can be to really appreciate what one is gifted everyday.
