Social and Political Critique:
The lyrics address the flaws in governance, secrecy, surveillance, and manipulation, suggesting an intense disillusionment with societal structures. A suggested uncertain reality, questioning whether humanity is living authentically or existing in a kind of mental or spiritual death. Delving into the nature of consciousness and the fabric of reality, touching on quantum theory and spirituality to hint at a deeper interconnectedness.

The lyrics also challenge institutionalized belief systems, encouraging a personal spiritual quest. Greek mythology and gnostic Christianity are used as lenses for understanding modern crises. The mention of Oedipus connects ancient archetypes with today’s moral blindness, as references to the Gospel of Thomas' apocryphal teachings of Yeshua (Jesus) imply a hidden truth beyond institutionalized religion.
The song’s existential urgency is clear pushing the listener to confront reality rather than live in societal illusions, concluding with message of transcendence and truth-seeking to be found in the present moment, urging a departure from fear and awakening to life’s inherent spiritual vitality.

Ancient wisdom interwoven with present day realities suggests a profound connection between history and the present, amplifying the urgency to seek truth before "time" runs out.

Why do we fall, Master Bruce?
