This is pure progressive rock. The songs are very long, very high energy with metal influences but very unstructured with many tempo changes and time signature

Story behind the song
Written and Recorded in 1992. Remixed and partially rerecorded in March 2007. The lyrical philosophy concerns the question of the true nature of life itself amidst it's fragility. The story is a semi-social sci-fi concerning a woman involved in a car crash that killed her husband and damages part of the visual cortex of her brain. A new technology is developed whereas her vision and perception can be restored, but she later finds that she can control the nature of what she sees and believes to be true. The song focuses on the life she creates from the discovery (her husband re-emerges, children, etc) and her understanding of the true nature of it all and ultimate acceptance of what is true reality amidst the uncertainty of when life will end.
Lyrics
Dawn brings lifes repair Renegade solution plays a sample bond Its taste remembers someones time An escape through futures sacred sight Red thoughts are spinning circles senselessly Deliberation fusing seamlessly Taken for granted, somewhere... Secluded life there, somewhere... Revolving empty spaces endlessly A realignment there beyond the ritual of thought Through cross-reliance on amber lines deliberately lost Of sui-cycle seasons, graciously, religiously mistrusts Of fear internal festering its universal love Underneath survival lies the truth of our convictions Running circles in your forests To establish someones crucifixion Taken from the physical Escapes with such precision As the engine of creation Squeezes dry the faces of ambition Theres a technology, Microbe-biology Searing the boundaries, Laced with dichotomy Science is purged in reliance on visuals Rendering vital transgressions, extensions of life My breath seems cold but sometimes cold feels warm inside One sight, one vision, two voices screaming Leaving trails of soft white footprints growing scarred While questioning this fragile life Too late to reason To safe to blow the rain away One world, one vision Two voices screaming in the night And their shadows share the black And the black embraces white A wind relays the signs Remembering this fragile life Signal cracking puppets floating high Harboring this fragile life Sharp tongue, sharp reason Sharp needles covet virgin skin One mind, two seasons the age remembers autumns fire In the air, magics disease Of a miniature brigade In imaginations eye Dissolving in this fragile life (This fragile life I leave) I looked through lights that faded fast There beneath the rage of summer Frozen here in silhouette Tattered stage in spotlights slaughter Auditioning the vail of consciousness Lightning wakes her nurtured daughter Fields of pastel seasons change Fleeting web strands naked, filtering dreams Here an affair in isolation Sounding the liquid sirens siege Galleries picture vile contentment A waiting game, inflexibly Roaming a conversation Pursing a destination Writhing a world that's left behind Reacting to his invention Mirror his best intentions Feeling your warmth, your breath, your life Craving a window into apathy Quenching seduction running over me The winter scans for someone...... Perimeters for someone...... To taste the sweat inviting harmony A feigning silence to kiss the isolation fever worn Of blank pretension Proclaiming revelations overborne In spring returns the laughter Jesters floating once again restored This past eternal Love is meant to breathe forevermore Underneath survival lies the path of our extinction Running circles in your forests To revive the faces of ambition Sequenced life in endless cycles Force without direction As the engines of creation Brings to me the miracle of resurrection Feeble apprentice in fifty years waiting To grace a transition, a pawns invitational rite Is this how I wanted to stray No, I guess I wouldnt change a thing Of the senses sensation his crying touch feels me How far, I could feel him, Too late, I revealed it Somehow...Someone...Somewhere...Someway.... Pale satin symphonies write faint antiquities (Face time, An obsession, Relay, No reaction) Is this inseparable reality falling? Calling, Somewhere, Falling, Someone Taste the kiss I leave, remember life.....
