lirik lagu deacon frost – allegory of the institute interlude: cave dwellers tale
[verse 1]
to see or not to see: that is the question:
when ones eye refracts light what is their vision
does one see the sun or just stray beams in dreams
chain bound sockets, in deranged octaves
the devil’s triad is brave and polished
i stay impoverished with posthumous pockets
the little cents i have won’t pass for knowledge
or finance these dreams into reality
i hope the surface will pay my salary
the serine sunsets i imaginе you’ve seen
these scеnes plague my mind, while i try to believe
but all i’m ever been told is to vanish, leave
oh vanquish, not reprieve these thoughts oh please
for you have spoken answers with grandeur
[interlude]
we’re deep in the cave
we’re deep in the cave
we’re deep in the cave
the cave dwellers
[verse 2]
the lone souls known as the cave dwellers
you wrote about us in ya little slave letter
you told us we could behave better, behave better
wait you told us we could be behave better
man i hate letters
man i hate words all the ploys and ways to curve they noise to match a frequency that we frequently seem to enjoy
so we join
but i’ve seen through your accounts of superiority
stressing syllable counts to account for your inferiority
and horribly it’s always these poetics that contort on me
always exercise metaphors but never exercise them metaphorically
formerly i’ve been forced to be conforming with the authorities
but when you don’t know the author you can’t face the enormities
then begins the protest and riots, unrest no compliance
the governments iceberg melts under the political climate
and then notoriously leaders rise in the publics eyes
with poignancy as their guide they begin to publicize, become pretty and wise to become the publics prize for wading through the waters of war and peace
[verse 3]
but what of it! what’s right of anything above it!
they say i’m surfaced but whats on their surface
if it is truly the surface then why is it deep
if i am deep in the cave they say i sleep
why is it when i count sheep i am not one
not one of us is the sum
you say it all adds up
you say you know the truth
you say it’s better above with light and love
but if that is light i will choose darkness
if that is love i will choose hate every time
the clock ticks until our demise
if i am born in a cave it will be my grave
for grave ends depend on the vision from within
may the angels descend and the demons rise
whoever reaches first will be the last in my eyes
