Borknagar - Relate (Dialogue) Lyrics
A flat planet in the centre of the universe.Who punctured us?Who thrust the needle into our flesh?Geocentrism came crawling back - licking the needle marks -"Copernicus was never right", and our world turned asintrovert as our minds.Kepler, Copernicus & Galilei suffocating in the vacuum ofthe microcosms.The inside can wait as long as we're preoccupied withshining the facade.We brought this upon ourselves - the connection breach.We cut the rope, we shut the power down.The line does not reach out any more.Diagonal traded for horizontal - there is no up and down.Gathered, trapped, closed into a linear thought.Kepler, Copernicus & Galilei suffocating in the vacuum ofthe microcosms.The inside can wait as long as we're preoccupied withshining the facade.Somehow we lost the ancient connection.All perspective eaten by newborn abilities.Entangled no more? - Simplicity the order of absentrelations.Complexity a distant relative or a strange rumour.Reflective surfaces mirroring skin, cores diminish slowlyand silently.Nourishment torn away, light dimmed to the unrecognizable.Show us your universe and we'll give you our world - we donot recognize it anyway!
