the lyrics of this song were paraphrased from the spoken words of Jiddu Krishnamurti at the end of the documentary, "Zeitgeist - Addendum" and its prequel, "Zeitgeist - The Movie".
Sometime in 2009, They Dwell Beneath the Temples (TDBT) was birthed as an idea for a solo metal project. It soon evolved from a thought into a home studio.
Story behind the song
Many people despise the movie Zeitgeist because of how it bashed Christianity in Part 1. I do not support 100% of what is covered in the film but do not disagree with every bit of it either, this song is about the guy, Jiddu Krishnamurti, and what he was saying, this song is not about the movie.
Lyrics
KRISHNAMURTI
(paraphrased from the words of Jiddu Krishnamurti)
what we've been trying to say,
what we need is a radical change,
a transformation,
you're a fool to accept it as it comes,
stand up, observe, and find out for yourself,
give your heart, your mind, and everything you have,
it depends on you and nobody else,
you do not have a teacher,
you are everything,
and to understand is to transform bodies,
we were saying how important it is,
to bring about the radical revolution,
the human mind,
a crisis in consciousness,
forget old ways,
and consider what the world is now,
all the misery and destruction,
man is still as he was,
and he has built a society along these lines...
