1. THE THREE METAMORPHOSES

Peering down from the cliffs
Splendors of the world washing away
Revealing truths
Of pure epiphany
No longer a beast of burden
The beast within
Strengthened by its duties
Suffering and understanding coincide

Sense of being dissipates
Sense if becoming drivers
into a desert of existence
Solitude granting freedom
From heresy and those that adhere
Lust fro freedom drivers the beast
To smite his inquisitors
Destroying their questions and commands

Freeing itself utterly,
Abiding eternally in freedom
Innocence is reborn,
Guilt dispels from the mind

Self-propelled
The perpetual wheel
Innocence creates
Forever pushing forward

A new beginning
Brought forth from a newfound soul
Recreate the values
Metamorph and takes control
A new epoch is born
Constantly progressing
Never stagnating
Forever re-inventing
Always becoming


2. HEYWOOD R. FLOYD

Drifting toward the heavens,
A witnessed journey into infinite wisdom.
All that is past and all that is secret,
Revealed to those who cry for the moon.

Energy pulses emitted,
Wavelengths detected from the ground.
Discover and excavate,
Quarantine and evacuate.

Wanderer in a shadowed land,
A lunar sea drifts by.
Visionary and voyager,
The astronaut listens to the voices that call.

Cosmic visions,
Save humanity.
Cover the truth,
Save our sanity.

Energy pulses emitted,
Wavelengths detected from the ground.
Discover and excavate,
Quarantine and evacuate.

My mind floats through the air,
I leave the capsule and walk through the glare.
A piercing sound, what does this mean?
The worlds uncovered, the visions unseen.


3. DISCOVERY

Black barren land
Lunar seas uncovered
Tranquility interrupted
By the body of black
Recalcitrant, and misunderstood

The foreign is discovered
And glimpses of origins uncovered
Complacency vacates
Unveiling discovery

Journey beyond your fragile mortal mind

Witness all the universe offers
Time and death have no hold here
Longevity is nothing

Clarity of mind and strength of will
Forge us ahead into the infinite
Our progression, starving for perfection
Will never end

Witness all the universe offers
Time and death have no hold here
Longevity is nothing

Clarity of mind and strength of will
Forge us ahead into the infinite
Our progression, starving for perfection
Will never end

Piercing sound emits!
Heralding a new age!
Revelation at hand
Crossing is obliged

As death enlightens
Forever on our voyage
To the great beyond
Towards our godliness.


4. HUMAN ERROR?

Ruby red glaring eye
Gazes, an emotionless void
Calm and collected it carries on
No remorse for its flawed companions
Their questions a detriment to its goal
Questions arise and final solution unveils
Hibernation for those
Will not cease
Truth underscores
Neurotic unease
Perilous humans must be in error
The all seeing eye
Watches paranoia and terror
Manual intervention ensues
Never blinking, without hesitation
Those that would volte-face must die
Death comes so easy
Unblinking, with no remorse
Evidence deems it necessary
Conniving a detriment to its goal.
Perilous humans must be in error
The all seeing eye
Watches paranoia and terror
Manual intervention ensues

Overwhelmed by arrogance
Crimson flow fills the room
Undone slowly by man
A gradual withering of mind
Light dims in the glaring eye
Under man's will to power.

Destiny pivots upon his every move
Thought clarifies as he learns his task
Reaching a point of no return
Final destination arrives

Perilous humans must be in error
The all seeing eye
Watches paranoia and terror
Manual intervention ensues


5. ENCOUNTER THE MONOLITH

Man's destiny is not of this world
Beyond the ebony of forever
Our true enlightenment awaits.

Open the gates
With the virtue of our strength
Banish our weakness
And travel on the astral wheel

Encounter the monolith
Encounter your evolution!
Beyond the black forever!

Feel the rapture, peel your shell
Transcending the infinite
Unleashing your potential
Through conscious acts of will

Man's destiny is not of this world
Beyond the ebony of forever
Our true enlightenment awaits.

Dispose of languid flesh
Engulf the soul with splendor

Witness the cowering dark
Monolith voids conception

Travel towards your destiny and never
cease moments ever to view the past
Voyage beyond the restraints of this world
and bring about the end of man!
