Bathyalpelagic III: Disequillibrated

We sink through boundless vasts of blue.
When we come home at last: You’ll see for yourselves
How far down into the black these rays can reach.

Coming true there is only what accords with your nature,
With your being – of which you know nothing.
But it’s there, inside of you
Controlling you ‘til the day you die.

How far down into the black can sunlight reach?
Low light, our eyes open wide:
There’s something underneath.

So you braced yourself once again.
Dread has made you come to your senses.
Well, you set everything in motion.
A disequilibrated stable state:
This is where it all began.
Now face the reaction.

So you braced yourself once again.
Pain has made you come to your senses.
Now your life is easy.
Stripped of all responsibility:
That’s my reward for you.
