Artist: meshuggah
Song: elastic
Year: 1998
Assembled from dead, incompatible pieces
Livid fragments regenerated
Decomposing bits of organic matter
Brought to life, revived
A fluid, limbless sickening shape
A faltering semi-floating cluster
It's sole purpose of creation
To burst the imagination, blood surge
Defying the mold of human flesh
Smashing the wall of beliefs
A sight to bring insanity
To all dimensional reality
Carved from thoughts unthought into a graphic
Visible delusion of life
A twisted display of dehumanized features
By cells reflected, refracted
A frantic dancing of particles
In pathetic attempt at rendering flesh
Swirling to project the illusion
Of shape dimension and mass
A walking translucent entity
Void, suspended
Inviolate by all rules
All standards of existence
An electrified vapor cloud
A skein of bone and tissue
An atrocity, a liquid form
Unshaped to the organic norm
Mind not filled with thoughts
But a random flickering static
For a creature un alive
I'm the un human elastic
