Greydon Square - Simulacra lyrics

Evolution with natural selection
Does not tell us the deeper
Question that we’re asking which is why?
What’s this deeper reality and what’s
It up to and why?
All it tells us is that whatever reality is
Is not what you see
What you see is, is just an adaptive fiction

So just to linger on
This fascinating bold question
That shakes you out of your dream states
Does this fiction still help
You building intuitions
As literally fiction does about reality?

Late in the calm making of songs
Breakage of bonds
One of the depraved with the vagrants is gone
One of from the lake of
The greats is the gones
(One lifetime men don’t wake up)
And I awake in a pot
Journey underway ‘till it's odds with
The face of the gods
And a stake in the cause
Looking for mistakes in the flaws
I crave for the stars
But they no longer exist
No more of the nude to be
Had I stayed on the barge
Under the warmth of the disk
Taking in the view from the black
I came from the lost yet
And still I’m awestruck
Sitting on the edge of the end with the
Last bit of cosmos until it’s all dust
Waiting on the next to begin to mention it

So enter the brain breaks
Maybe even append from the save state
Enter the simulation I’m a mainstay
We’ll just try to see you
Ascend to the same place
So blend ‘till we change fates
You don’t want it to end but you can’t stay
So leave us with the kin that we gain late
And the bow and arrow within
That we aim straight

It’s all recursive
Broad immersive alls we purchase
All to circumvent the laws we work
With on a dark ship
Many of us long for purpose
Predator to raw emergence
Sever it from costly churches
As a veteran of lofty searches
That could sell ‘em on the fogs we lurk in
As impediment to godly worship

Well, It’s interesting that you say
This in the same spirit as what I said before
It depends on what answer you
Give to what’s beyond spacetime
What answer we would give to your question
Right?

Our position? Cost admission: All existence
Raw commitment with evolved conviction
As we all
Led our citizens of stardust fiction
…Shard through ages broad new life here
A small few pages long view night here
An all new matrix in views of light where
It’s all too basic …Nested
Every path you’re on you’ve already selected
With you lasting long in the
Depths of the essence
You can crash your songs on celestial efforts
In the vast of it all
We created the nexus sans imperfections
We have readily etched it canvas reflecting
We aggressively test it novels ingested
All for the irrelevance respite

Built up on a ship in a bottle only to
Build it on a ship in a bottle
Loaded for living on a blip in the hollow
With more experience than any could follow
Aboard a city of committee and power
Many want ascending in hours
We are known to take infinity showers
As the MO is make the lineage ours
Though are coded from a synergy prowess
The feat alone will make our enemies cower
Set in his trek and the rest is freeform
Where we simulate sex in the
Flesh and the threats
Of excess and where death is a respawn
When you plug into this the
Abyss under risk of
The stress is the precious to keep going
You just see all the seconds
As ocean with waves of
A daze to get wrecked in a sea storm

Probe leylines
Outside of this there is no spacetime
Dousing about mounds in
Amount countless accounts
Vouch for the bout bold-faced lies
Best neural headsets whole play lives
Call for the exit and whole stakes die
The simulacra image opera living off
Of the old great minds

Unfortunately you still don’t know if you
Went all the way down
It’s possible that this kind
Of whatever consciousness is
It is somehow digging at a
Deeper truth of reality
But, you still don’t know when
You get to the bottom
You know a lot of people
They’ll take psychedelic drugs
And they’ll say: "Well that takes
My mind to certain places
Where it feels like that is revealing
Some deeper truth of reality"
Still, it could be interfaces
On top of interfaces
That’s um, you really don’t know
With Gödel's incompleteness is that
You really don’t know

My own view on it, for what it’s worth
Because I don’t know the right answer
But my own view right now is that it um
It’s never ending
I think if this is true and
If consciousness is somehow important
Or fundamental in the universe
This may be an important fundamental
Fact about consciousness it'self
That it’s a never ending exploration that’s
Going on in some sense
