crypteria - corrupted text lyrics
telling lies to cause wonder:
one of the oldest pastimes of mankind
try to distract the mind from thinking
too deeply about the cares that weigh us down
recounting marvelous tales and strange delusions+
unlimited thirst for fantasy+
disbelieving the facts they see
in exchange for an exhausted false reality
impelled on by groundless hope
naively expressed as evidence;
astonished listeners rе+tell fanciful legends+
might as wеll be fairy tales of little girls
staring out to neverland+
textual distortion in their hands
a false translation misunderstood:
echoes of corrupted text
staring into the sun
focused on the need for meaning
dreaming yet not asleep…
mind seared by false teachings
the wisps of dreams from another world
steeped in delusion
weighing their lives down
what can’t be proven lacks claim to truth
steeped in delusion+ entrancing sacred ruse!
ignore their claims that contradict reason:
guard and revere respect for truth
zealots emboldened to say
that by their faith alone
the words in doubt are proven true
when they can’t even understand the language
the ancient texts were written in
well+intentioned, and yet misled;
platonic passed off as christian
what’s in a vision is not really true:
a figment of imaginings
symbolic but not real
(reciting vague words
as if they had deep meaning.)
unknown: the text
originally written by the men
foundational concepts redefined
a clever ancient lie
shrewdly misinterred:
echoes of corrupted text
