Ashwath Nair These guys are my introduction to cosmic music. Admittedly there are many more who came before Being, but these guys really got me into it. Favorite track: Perpetual Groove.

bork750 The vocals stand out most for me, but everything builds upon itself to create something truly cosmic. The first time I read the lyrics I was blown away by the melodies and rhymes and they reappeared in my mind for months. I couldn't get enough of this album when I first discovered it and every time I come back I'm reminded of the feelings it originally brought to me. Favorite track: Perpetual Groove.

{End Act Two} (Begin Act One) 01 - Cosmonaut The Cosmonaut Preparing for launch... No amount of preparation leads me, To be ready to depart, believe me, I hold on to all of that which freely, Floats about under my feet, beneath me. Elevation, ever rising, I’m shown, Upwards into everything that’s unknown, What’s the meaning, or the purpose? I’ll go, Despite all the reasoning that I know. Floating upward, Searching forward, Reaching inward, For my home! Bring me back home, (Home!), to the world that I’ve known, (Known!) I resent this, resistance! How have I grown, (Grown!), from the people I’ve known? (Known!) I can't bear this, distance! Distance! I’ll be waiting for gravity, to be, Pulling me back, I’ll be running on empty, 'till we, Find the right track. Bring me back home, (Back home, back home…) to the world that I’ve known, (Back home, back home…) I resent this, resistance! How have I grown, (I've grown, I've grown…) from the people I’ve known? (I've grown, I've grown…) I can't bear this, distance! Distance! Distance!!! The Fabric of Spacetime [The Fabric of Spacetime Instrumental Role is performed by Misha Mansoor of Periphery.] The Cosmonaut Arriving in orbit... Now I can grow from the people I know, There is no resentment left that I show, All I had to do to fall was let go, I have bridged the distance over the flow. Now I can grow from the people I know, There is no resentment left that I show, All I had to do to fall was let go, I have bridged the distance over the flow. I’ll be waiting for gravity, to be, Pulling me back, I’ll be running on empty, till we, Find the right track. …Find the right track...

DNA 05:20
02 - DNA The Cosmonaut Portrayed either by his biological side, or his cultural side, internally. The Biological Cosmonaut Contemplating from space... I am a battlefield, within my, Character, I’m not sure, why, This division draws the line, Between this fissure. Please explain the separation, This composure can’t define. It creates unseen relation, Between what I am inside. The Human Condition There is the world around us, All it’s own. Then there’s the world within us, All alone. The Biological Cosmonaut & The Human Condition I am both the, Vessel and Sea, Both the Voyage, and the Journey, Both Beginning, And the Ending, ON! The Human Condition There’s no controlling it. At least there isn’t yet. Despite this we regret, The changes we beget. The Cultural Cosmonaut Contemplating from space... Don’t even think about it, thinking won’t bring about it, Forget the dreams about it, wasting my time. They say these ties control me, create all that implores me, Dictates the life before me, fate in my mind. But it cannot create a, person who lives today a, Human who paves the way and, breaks from the line. There is a will about us, and nothing can confound us, Or ever get around us, We are mankind. We are, so much more than what the genes tell us, We are, so much more than what our dreams tell us, We are, so much more than those who've come before us, We are, so much more than common life would let us. The Human Condition Before, you think, that this is a Right instead of a Privilege, you will see, The more, you think, the greater your mind helps you to, be who you want to be, You're on, the brink, of making this evolution, more than reality, So if, you think, this won't just be handed to you… The Cultural Cosmonaut Don’t even think about it, thinking won’t bring about it, Forget the dreams about it, wasting my time. They say these ties control me, create all that implores me, Dictates the life before me, fate in my mind. But it cannot create a, person who lives today a, Human who paves the way and, breaks from the line. There is a will about us, and nothing can confound us, Or ever get around us, We are mankind.

Before, you think, that this is a Right instead of a Privilege, you will see, The more, you think, the greater your mind helps you to, be who you want to be, You're on, the brink, of making this evolution, more than reality, So if, you think, this won't just be handed to you… The Cosmonaut Whole once more, as his signal fades... We are mankind.

04 - Story for a Muse The Lover Gazing in your eyes with your hand in mine, We watch the moon rise and leave time behind. I lay my head on your shoulder to rest, Feeling your heart beating on in your chest. The Lover & The Muse Waiting together while we watch the sky, Wishing whenever a star passes by. I had you closely beneath shining stars, When we’re together the whole world is ours. The Lover I will always remember, everything we’ve been through, I’ll share forever together with you. You and I are a story, and the whole world should see, You mean more than anything else to me. This is our story, As our tale is told, our lives unfold. And this is our story, Each time we begin, Wishing it will never end. Never end. Never end. Never end. Never end. I feel at ease just by hearing you breathe, You are the piece that completes all of me. Lying awake as the moon lights your face, Waiting till morning to feel your embrace. The Lover & The Muse So when the sunrise is burning above, Open your eyes feel the warmth of my love. Though this night is ending we’ll always be, Together forever in my memory. The Lover I will always remember, everything we’ve been through, I’ll share forever together with you. You and I are a story, and the whole world should see You mean more than anything else to me. The Lover & The Muse This is our story, As our tale is told, our lives unfold. And this is our story, Each time we begin, Wishing it will never end. The Muse This time I can tell you, (Tell you…) This isn’t pretend. (This isn't pretend.) I know I love you, (Love you…) From beginning to end. The Lover I will always remember, everything we’ve been through, I’ll share forever together with you. You and I are a story, and the whole world should see You mean more than anything else to me. The Lover & The Muse This is our story, As our tale is told, our lives unfold. And this is our story, Each time we begin, Wishing it will never end. This is our story, As our tale is told, our lives unfold. And this is our story, Each time we begin, Wishing it will never end. The Muse …as it begins to break like a worn out doll. Never end.

05 - A Part, Apart The Antagonist - Script The Antagonizers - Script Stay tonight, and fight with no surrender, for, The reality, that has come to be, a part of me, (A part of me), What is right, is only a contender for, The ideas we, only want to see, as a part of we, (A part of we). Its not the sun that circles around us, (No its not the sun that surrounds us…) We are the cycle, elliptical 'round, (Cycling elliptical 'round…) These are ideas that change what's around us. (And as they change Universes are found.) So, are yours, worth fighting, for? The Debate [The Debate Instrumental Role is performed by Brian Kohlhoff of An Obscure Signal.] The Antagonizers Do you believe that this world will never change? The Mob We stay the same. The Antagonizers Do you believe that your dreams are out of range? The Mob We're stuck in frame. The Antagonist Aren't you better than that? Why regret all of that? What's the matter can't you shatter all that's holding you back? The Mob You can't blame us for that. Its the shame we combat. And the latter that comes after that we fear to attack! The Cosmonaut Watching events unfold on Earth, from Space... I'll be waiting for gravity to be, pulling me back, I'll be running on empty till we, find the right track… The Antagonist Stay tonight, (Stay tonight…), and fight with no surrender for, The reality, that has come to be, a part of me, apart of me.

06 - Perpetual Groove The Passenger - Script The Attendants - Script Boarding the flight... Everyone’s telling us, Everything’s destined to fall. Crumbling! But what they’re selling us, Isn’t worth buying at all. They stumble the life we live! Its unspoken, But its still a part of us all. Lines unbroken, Progressing far from the time that we fall. This vibration, Measures our lives in the actions we take. It’s creation, Affected by all the decisions we make. (Aaah, aaah, aaah.) Though we all crumble, we will still perpetuate, Far beyond all in which, we can participate. We will live on in all that, which we propagate, Destined to always be heard, as we resonate. (Aaah, aaah, aaah.) Though I will crumble, I will still perpetuate, Far beyond all in which, I can participate. I will live on in all that, which I propagate, Destined to always be heard, as I resonate. Open all eyes, past this disguise… Here there’s a reality, without beginning or an ending, Here there lies a sanity, never in need of any mending. Unlock our mind, inside we’ll find… Time and space don’t have a place, its what we fill it with that matters, And everything that we embrace, and all the things we SHATTER. Though we all crumble, we will still perpetuate, Far beyond all in which, we can participate. We will live on in all that, which we propagate, Destined to always be heard, as we resonate. Though we all crumble, we will still perpetuate, Far beyond all in which, we can participate. We will live on in all that, which we propagate, Destined to always be heard, as we resonate. Though I will crumble, I will still perpetuate, Far beyond all in which, I can participate. I will live on in all that, which I propagate, Destined to always be heard, as I resonate. Though we will crumble, we will still perpetuate, Though we will crumble, we will still perpetuate, Though we will crumble, we will still PERPETUATE! Air Traffic Control Preparing for departure... Controller One Knowledge is the key to understanding, Without it, there is no complex society, No human civilization, No ever increasing standard of living. No human civilization. Controller Two There is absolutely no evidence whatsoever, For the divine, the supernatural, The pseudoscientific, Or anything of the speculative nature. One requires evidence for the things that they believe in, in this world. The Pilot Take off, over the intercom... They try to tell us what will come in the afterlife, I'm more concerned with the present time, This is all that we have, this is all that we have, THIS IS ALL THAT WE HAVE! The Passenger In flight... When I'm gone, All that which made me strong, Continues to live on, Even as days grow long, From peak of dusk till dawn, Remember me in song! I find, myself so far from the, Shore line, rippling out on the, Sea line, traveling to meet the, Sky line, perpetuating for all time! The Attendants Preparing for arrival and landing... Open all eyes, Past this disguise… Unlock our mind, Inside we’ll find… (End Act One) {Begin Act Two} -

- {End Act One} (Begin Act Two) 07 - Arcane Academic The Arcane Academics - Script The Voices of Reason - Script The Arcane Academics Preparing for defense... If we believe that this space is empty, Then this world is awfully alone. How do we find any meaning, If the truth can't be known? So no matter what the future's holdin', The present moment is what we behold in, (Aaah, aaah, aaah, aaah...) Trust in this and we'll be fine! (Trust in this and we'll be fine…) Be forgiven of the past you're holdin', See the world with the eyes we've chosen, (Aaah, aaah, aaah, aaah...) Trust in this and we'll be just fine!

We're elevated on the plane of entry, Yet we're created just to depart, Destined from ephemeral to eternity, Within the heart.

The Arcane Indoctrinator Leader [The Arcane Indoctrinator Character Role is performed by Gabriel Riccio of The Gabriel Construct.] You have no eyesight… Yet you think, That you can see!

(You learn from us!) We have the answers, JUST DON'T ASK US QUESTIONS! The Awakening of Reality [The Awakening of Reality Instrumental Role is performed by Travis Orbin.] The Awoken Voices of Reason Preparing for attack… The Artilect Robots As they gain sentient awareness… I know I can understand this world: Our origin, our livelihood, Our eventual death... Our probability, our possibility, our potential, Our consciousness, our sentience, OUR AWARENESS! -A nonorganic engineered life form created by humans becomes self aware, and more cognitive that it’s creators, the first of many…- The Brilliantly Insane As they succumb to the lunacy of implied reality compared to actual reality… No bloody slavery, We can't be, blissfully, Ignorant, endlessly, Fragmented, imagery, We won't surrender, see, We won't submit, or be, Not taken, seriously, 'Till they know, we are free! -A desperate gasp for air is heard, and somewhere, every few moments, a new mind breaks, powerless to adapt to modernity's demands...- The Skeptically Educated As they fractal through infinite wrong and finite right... "I give myself purpose…" "I find my meaning in truth…" ("I find my meaning in truth…") "I am concerned about the true nature of this reality." "There's no evidence!" "I don't see the EVIDENCE!?" "WAKE UP!!!" -A rallying echoing cry rings out, demanding all who sleep in blissful ignorance of reality to rise and defend real truth from fallacy…- The Reason Resonator Leader Surely, we won't be LIVING, Lives based, on BELIEVING, How could, you not want something... MORE than what they're telling to you! WHY have faith if you can go through!... ALL THAT LIFE EXPERIENCE IS FOR!? The Voices of Reason Though we all crumble we will still perpetuate... Far beyond all in which we can participate... We will live on in all that which we propagate... Destined to always be heard as we resonate... The Voices of Reason Resonate.

You won't get through, We'll ignore you, And we'll brave through, ALL OF TIME! The Voices of Reason PREPARE YOUR LOGIC AND REASON!!! The Arcane Academics With faith in hand, The Voices of Reason CALL FOR PROOF OR START CALLING OUT TREASON!!! The Arcane Academics Make your demand, The Voices of Reason LEAVE NOTHING LEFT TO BELIEVE IN!!! The Arcane Academics Wait for command, The Voices of Reason KNOW ONLY THAT KNOWLEDGE WILL FREE THEM!!!

I cannot wait, In wonder of whether, Or not I make, My own life better. Do I create? How would I measure? Or desecrate, What causes displeasure, Or even relate, Without any leisure, To undertake, What makes a life better? I will never toe the line, Only living life that's mine, Through the experiences, I consign; If you never go the distance, Then I promise you will miss this: If I never go the distance, Then I promise I will miss this… I'm not missing out on life, this time, Or any time.

We shout, yet offer little resistance. Reach out, to this new world, With persistence! Maybe we've been crossing a line, from which we cannot return? I can see the space in between us, shrinking with every word… Could it be the lessening distance, that has pushed us apart? Though we may seem closer together, we pull far… From the heart.

11 - The Singularity Terrans I The Terrans - Script The Cosmists - Script The Terran Imagine a drifting seed, at the whim of the current it sees, Vast distances, lands, and seas, only able to capture what it, Seizes upon, leading it on, forever gone, Breathing on, until the, current's gone, forever gone. Imagine the body alive, senses driving the animal live, Through the air, land, and sea they arrive, yet its only through others that they keep, Thriving on, until they, are gone, forever gone, Subsiding on, all the, life withdrawn, forever gone. The Cosmist Imagine sentient existence, that we know, All through our own experiences. The only whims, (We're thrust upon…), We aren't condemned, (To carry on…), All the variables that we now rely on, (Just can't compare…), To the variables that we all belie on, (Still unaware…) The inevitably opening eyes will see... The Terrans Control is a bitter illusion, despite whatever our conclusion, We must all abide, by the wind and the tide. The Cosmists Though the winds will go their separate ways, I find, Myself being pulled apart in ways, aligned... The Cosmist …To colors blind, so uninclined, To bear in mind… The Cosmists I'm unconfined, This time! The Terran The variables become, an infinite unending spectrum, So then do we just succumb, or do we pursue the total sum? The Cosmists In our little lives, we are all pursuing meaning, Rarely it arrives, without one of us intervening, All of it. So step, out of my way now, If anything, I'll intervene, on anything, that I can glean, My hands around, these hands around! Thought I, represent ways how, We're progressing, life spreading wing, still what we bring, is anything, But common ground… No common ground!!!
