1.	Aletheia Contra Veritas (electric) 06:10	lyrics	buy track
I have seen through the simplicity Of the oneness and difference Of all things Interrelated, concatenated The context that contains Establishes an exchange reciprocally As I see revealed and respect the veil of ontology Which is to say that Being is Mystery A thing is not a thing Words open or close the doors Of Being’s house They decide if we shall step beyond Or endlessly regress. Do not trust the airtight promise; The suffocating universe of fact When lichtung becomes manifest Silence opens space for sound The web, the way, the tides clear Our endless fallen strife For the sake of the earth The sea exists For the sake of the sea The sky exists For the sake of the sky The earth exists Now I invoke: Come home, Dasein, to Aletheia’s welcome hall. I have seen through the simplicity Of the oneness and difference Of all things. The door stands before you At every moment In every place Patiently biding.
