Ockham's Razor Lyrics

It wasn’t a vision of absolutes
Breathing the vapour of many eternities
Beyond the bright blue halo

When you reject the premise of mediocrity
What is left-over is a rare Earth scenario
Many theories are plausible
but a simple test can cut to the best...Ockham’s Razor!

I can see the stars are shining deep inside of you
Enlightening the full circle narrative
Aspiration and faith stripped away, laid bare the truth
There...is no one else!

That is why this predicament is so precarious
A squandered chance, unforgivable
Sometimes it seems a cataclysm is the best way to
start again, progress to this point has lead a
merry dance, driving headlong to a fiery end

The silent majority are complicit in the crime
Never attribute malice, what can be adequately
defined by stupidity

They never contemplated, the privilege of existence

Cast back to the sea
Where, once again, there would be silence over the deep

Though flawed as we are
This is still the single greatest product of nature
If the universe became dull to music and art,
the last tear would be shed

As I sat upon my hill above a valley of emptiness
the last thinking being lamenting... we were the first!

The final time in the garden
The Empire crumbled years ago to a cult of one
This concept is put to rest, as a life, an idea dies a death
