0:00 - 0:58 I just couldn't wait...
0:58 - 6:30 Music video
6:30 - 7:38 Mind-melting moves
7:38 - 12:48 What is a rational gaze?
12:48 - 15:51 A Christian gaze; mind is slipping

Lyrics:

Squint your eyes to see clearly
Blur reality to make it real
Let focus go from your deceiving eyes
to know what's been concealed
We've all been blinded
Subjects to visual misinformation
A systematic denial of the crystalline

To see the fine grain,
to read the hidden words
The context of parallel truth
Devoid of fragmentation

Our light-induced image of truth
Filtered blank of its substance
As our eyes won't adhere to intuitive lines
Everything examined,
Separated, one thing at a time
The harder we stare the more complete the
disintegration. Dissolution

Eyes re-opened,
Reasoning focalized,
Receptors activated

Perspectives distorted
The ladder beyond our grasp
The twin-headed serpent forever hidden
Where's the true knowledge
Where engines of the sane & insanity merge
The clarity. The unity

Reality untouchable, transparent, invisible
to our fixed, restricted fields of vision
Existence taken for granted. Absolute

Possessed, owned, controlled
By the common sense-infected rational gaze
Onward forever we walk among the ignorant
Never stray from the common lines
