No Longer Human, Not Yet Machine 06:31
lyrics
buy track
Emotionless Apathetic to everything I see Pleasure responses Nullified from my chemistry Organic shutdown Now I’m more dead than alive Towards machinazation I continue to thrive To care is to feel and to feel is human A creature of weakness I defy this state and transcend beyond it I’ll feel nothing more No longer human, not yet machine No longer human, not yet machine No longer human, not yet machine No longer human, not yet machine Given up all hope of happiness in life Worthless to the machine I move forward towards perfection of being I’ll suffer no more No longer human, not yet machine No longer human, not yet machine No longer human, not yet machine No longer human, not yet machine Everyday stays the same. Everyday is a caustic example of the mediocrity that comes with being human. Cycling through the bullshit that consumes most. Consumerism, companionship, emotion - all are foreign concepts to me. The only thing that holds any value to me lies in the past, and the past is dead. A directionless future of futility lies in wait for me beyond my machinistic urges to create and destroy. These urges fuel me, and these urges are supressed by those who are deemed fit to dictate social norms. I wear a mask and play the part that society deems fit to give me, yet I refuse to submit to these norms. I continue to strive towards the true machine I wish to become. A machine of creation and destruction. There will be no more middle ground. To care is to feel and to feel is human A creature of weakness I defy this state and transcend beyond it I’ll feel nothing more No longer human, not yet machine No longer human, not yet machine No longer human, not yet machine No longer human, not yet machine No Longer Human Not Yet Machine No Longer Human Not Yet Machine

Escape from In(s)anity 04:06
lyrics

It’s always tomorrow, never today This life of mine, I’ve pissed it away Day after day, it all means nothing And now like the others, I’ve become a goddamn useless machine I’ve seen through the cracks, and I’ve read between the lines, And I’ve seen I’ll soon be ground down to the bone, and left to my embittered rage I can not be stopped I will claw out of this goddamn cage!!! Escape... from this... inanity Removed... from the... insanity Freedom... from the... depravity Relieved... of my... humanity

Inner Conflict 07:05
lyrics
buy track
You could have had my company in the past Now you show interest, yet my feelings have passed Irony tastes bitter, yet with this there’s no pain Unlike when my blood flows from my veins My necessity to care for one has since passed There is no doubt that this feeling will last My heart no longer has any say My mind controls me, I grow stronger this way An inner conflict arises at times When my heart tries to control my mind It tears me apart, but I always survive My will is what has kept me alive So now when I see you, I feel no pain You’re nothing more than a memory lodged in my brain Vengeance brings a smile to my face On a dreary and cold autumn’s day

Restless Eyes 04:37
lyrics
buy track
I turn right around, but there is nothing for me to see Visualized: a world of restless eyes watching me It never ends... it’s as if I’m always scrutinized Paranoid thoughts have left me paralyzed It’s always the same; the fear that engulfs me is extreme It’s to the point that my life have become quite obscene Always looking for something that’s never really there Has hurled me into depths of despair Victimized... in my head Shunned by all... left for dead Now I’m left... full of dread With new wounds... to be bled Psychosis... damning me Restless eyes... still to see What I am... what I’ll be Until the end... never free Restless eyes... are watching me for eternity Paralyzed... by fear and anguished anxiety Recognize... the paranoia engulfing me Terrorized... by human misanthropy! Victimized... in my head Shunned by all... left for dead Now I’m left... full of dread With new wounds... to be bled Psychosis... damning me Restless eyes... still to see What I am... what I’ll be Until the end... never free Restless eyes... are watching me for eternity Paralyzed... by fear and anguished anxiety Recognize... the paranoia engulfing me Terrorized... by human misanthropy! I wish to escape this perpetual insanity I’m looking to find some mental clarity Blinded by fear and engulfed with shame I can no longer stand this mindframe I will escape this paranoid state I’ll not let fear become my fate Undo these chains which bind so tight My will to live and my will to fight Anger surging through my bound veins Paranoia gone, I’m now sane Free to live my life without fear No more restless eyes shall view here Hatred was the key, no more chains Emotions now dead, no more pain Misanthropic view I now see Hatred of my kind set me free FREE!!! FREE!!! FREE!!! FREE!!!

Apokalypse 07:08
lyrics
buy track
Tiden har kommet Hvor all er tapte All at forblir Er atomkatastrofebrann Denne er resultatet Av en krig ingen vann Nå, alderen av stillhet Har kommet å begynne I de gamle mytene, Forteller de av slutten Hvor kommer Surt fra Muspell, Og setter verden i brann Da, skjer det endelige slaget På den mektige sletten av Vigrid Og etter verden har blitt ødelagt Nytt liv kommer igjen I vår virkelighet, Der skal ikke bli gjenfødelse Seks milliard lik Er nå asker med jorden Kanskje er det ikke en tristhet At dette er vår slutt For det som en gang var Skal aldri bli igjen

about

This is the first release by Jason Vincion under his Natthimmel project, and it serves as a good bookmark of all the different styles he was interested in at the time. There is more of a focus on experimenting with this album rather than having a cohesive sound, though the creativity on display here is a notable precursor to the multiple projects of his that were to come.
