“On some level it’s trying to understand the way God communicates with humans. He’s speaking to us through all these barbaric acts we’re committing through each other. I’m not a very religious person. I was raised Catholic, but I practice Christianity in a more simplistic level, which is in my mind...
Gelid Ascent Lyrics
You are what parasites evolved from
Still an unanswered question
You are the refuse energy from a superior form
Nothing that occurs to you is intended for your involvement
You're an irrelevant effect
Unavoidable, but of low influence
One last thing that you must understand
(To be dead is to be confused, to be mistaken)
You speak to me
Like the anguish of a child doused in flames
Oh, you speak to me
Like the stones that bash in his skull and brains exposed
Oh it's always been the same
200,000 years of viciousness
The violent autism of our suborned, oblique, cracked out species
Oh you speak to me
Like the rifles that annihilated his face
Oh you speak to me
In a voice so dry and calm and impassive
And yeah, what do you know?
You know nothing impuissance of empathy, the straight
Wretchedness of abandonment
The dehumanizing press of love
Oh you speak to me
