lyrics

Amidst alveolate structures, it rests within the envelope of a false sanctuary. This mountain--a symbol of protection--is, in reality, just a cage... a cage which creates fear in its captive's hearts. It is an agent of deceit, breeding those who will seek salvation but shall acquire dissolution.
The cage is fear itself: that one might die in desolation... that one may never know the purity of eternal ardor.
Though many stand idly and rot away in solitude, there is a subject who resists. The one who has incurred the most suffering at the hands of his own withdrawal wishes to speak:

"I've searched frantically for happiness but have found naught. I have failed... and now I suffer, perpetually, never able to escape this madness... However, I now accept this of my own accord--and I shall use it to show this world my pain."
The dementia that sleeps within is awakened. It shapes and refines, changing form and character to that of a beast.. a form of agony and rage, its howl an unrelenting contributor to the fear of the population.
The world is shaken, in their false fortresses, and their safeguard is dropped as they step outside, to see him atop the mountain, calling out to everyone:
"We are alone in this world because we close ourselves off. We create our own misfortune, in our ignorance... we're all so afraid. Our fear is of falling and not being caught.
"But we are all fools, engulfed in aversion and shutting out any hope of trust. I am the desolate one, but I will not die alone."

* * * His agony begot wisdom... thus defeating his fear, before all of mankind. * * *
