A song about animated ideas or pure forms trying to conquer us... though all their efforts fail basically by the SNAFU principle.

lyrics

Every single thought
Is trying to materialize
Transforming itself into words
To spread around through our ears and eyes

Phrases written down
Become mutating thoughts
When they pass through us
Imperfect senses disturb their flow
Hear their cry

And we can't communicate them
All our mammal systems have failed
These pristine ideas have no other way to go

Changes all the time
What you thought it was is not
The same!
Not!
The same mutation
Not!
The same!
Not!
The same translation after many wrong rhymes

All these fallen memes
Keep trusting us somehow
Relying on our organs again
Even if we obstruct their way
It's no lie

And We can't communicate them
All our mammal systems have failed
These pristine ideas have no other way to go

Changes all the time
What you thought it was is not
The same!
Not!
The same mutation
Not!
The same!
Not!
The same formation for our mimicking minds

A reality behind
Showing us a form
Could have some intentions not showing
For what we know they could be
Trying to conquer us
But our limitations leave their tries astray

Perfect form of hair and...
Perfect form of mud and...
Perfect form of dirt and...
Other forms
Hide!
Out...

In a place that some don't like
Cause' it doesn't fit their minds
Truth seems like a changing fact
So absurd that no one can perceive its glow
