This song tells a haunting tale of demons who, through modern technology, hypnotise humanity into a collective slumber before consuming us. The lyrics paint a picture of a society sedated and self-destructive, oblivious to the approaching consequences. An “interval of blankness” descends, underscoring their vulnerability. In the accompanying video, elements of artificial intelligence enhance the disturbing narrative, with tentacles and wires consuming and deforming the world as we know it. Oceanic creatures invade and infect the human race, adding to the eerie and unsettling atmosphere. “When the sky is falling will we all be scrolling, ignoring all the warnings?”
Lyrics - Absent sedated in unison we self destruct
Obedient to our contraptions
Pleasure over purpose
Consequences in the distance move towards us
The Interval of blankness comes to collect
A symbol of our weakness hangs over our heads
When the sky is falling will we all be scrolling
Ignoring all the warnings
The sky will realise we’ve not been watching
Free trial perspective comes to an end
Reflection we see is now pretend
Crowd no longer nods or taps their feet
The hypnotic nonsense on repeat
Should we have held our eyes open when we prayed
The curiosity necessitates us to turn the page
What’s in the sky
The Interval of blankness comes to collect and rob us blind
Subconscious invaded
Embellished decorations we’ve seen
Subdued we are now held by our screens
Immobilised by what has been perceived
Images sing us to sleep
Crowd no longer nods or taps their feet
The hypnotic nonsense on repeat
Absent sedated in unison we self destruct
Obedient to our contraptions
Pleasure over purpose
Consequences in the distance move towards us
Absent
Self destruct
Pleasure over purpose
Consequences in the distance move towards us
