Name: The Arrival
Duration: P00H03M47S
Description: The waiting continues. How can something that doesn't exist, or might as well not exist, have such control over our minds? As the Cordyceps fungus infects the ant and controls its actions, so does that mysterious nothingness infect and control us. The difference is that the Cordyceps for sure exists. The Arrival is like "Waiting for Godot" in song form.

Truth.
But it comes
to me without
proof.

I have been chosen by
something not alive.
Incubate its will
through me.
Synthesize its
piety.

I can feel
the arrival of…
I can feel
the arrival of…
