lyrics

Interpolations to the past
Sensory information
Assembly in retrospect
Momentary unification

Vertigo of the understanding
Fluctuating neural processes
Which are arranged forcibly
Reification of cognition

It is a collective hallucination
A Cartesian theater
A narrative construction
Self-Delusion!

The first-person observer
Witness of the world
Possessor of an alleged privilege
Smokescreen

The knowing subject
The object that makes itself known
A fixed and durable being
Is it possible?

Generation of illusion
Identification behind the machine
Invention of an immaterial engine
The Self takes the wheel

Virtual reality
cerebral homunculus
circular representations
Imaginary inner self

Integration, emergency, reemergence
Cacophony of meaningless phenomena
Filtered by a control center
Glare of a need

It is a collective hallucination
A Cartesian theater
A narrative construction
Self-Delusion!

A ghost, a simulation
Stay in mental retina
A false notion created
For a dualist cognitive paradigm
