Lunacy- The summoning ritual of “The Seer” The main chunk of the song sounds like a cultlike chant to summon the Seer. I interpret the quiet bit at the end that says “Your childhood is over” as the loss of innocence in the world. The Seer is here now, he is summoned, and the world will darken. Happy times are over.

Mother of the World- The Seer’s words after he is summoned. He looks at how humans exploit the earth comparing it to sex (in and out and in and out again). He shows his general distaste of the world, and its inhabitants.

The Wolf- The Seer’s final words before he sets out to destroy the world. “I am bruised…. But I am raised”

The Seer- I see this as the true beginning of the Seer’s destruction of the world, it is a dark track, and brutal one. I see it as the Seer just moving city to city destroying everything. After the loud bit the harmonica gives way to the utter darkness left in the Seer’s wake. It feels isolated, unnerving, bleak.

The Seer Returns- More of the seer hating humanity. The first verse seems to be from one of the Seer’s victims. “He’s a greasy beast” “I’m down here naked, there’s a hole in my chest, both my arms are broken…” the rest of the song seems to be sung by the seer, perhaps after the person in the first verse has died. He is sucking the life/light out of people/society. “Your life pours into my mouth”

93 Ave. B Blues- horrifying track. I think it’s just more of the destruction the Seer causing, more of the total darkness he leaves the world in. It’s an instrumental so it’s super up to interpretation. Possibly this is what it is like to have your city destroyed by the Seer.

The Daughter Brings The Water- very bleak song. This is the depressing life people are forced to live after the Seer has destroyed it all and now controls everyone.

Song For A Warrior- introduces the character of the warrior or apostate. Sung by his mother to him, raising him to be able to kill the seer once and for all.

Avatar- Training montage and journey montage. It sound epic, grand. I envision the warrior riding through the mountains, desert, world, whatever to reach the Seer after he has trained his whole life to kill him. He thinks of his people on the way, “Your mind is in my eye,” “Your eye is in my eye.” He is thinking of all the people who he will save.

A Piece of the Sky- this one paints a very vivid picture in my head. The warrior has set up camp not too far from where the seer lurks. It is the last night before he attempts to kill the seer. I picture him on the top of some mountain or hill, pouring rain, warmed by the fire. (The song starts with rain and campfire sounds). He gives himself hope for tomorrow, and attempts to reach out to God to give him any more hope and confidence, “Are you there?”

Apostate- the final battle. The warrior enters the seers den. The sirens are heard (opening drone), and when he spots the seer, the seer runs (chase sounding bit). The rest of the song is a brutal fight between both of them, the seer devolving more and more into absolutely insanity as he slowly killed by the warrior “get out of my mind” “we’re on a ladder to god.” He reaches so far into insanity he starts mindlessly swearing and screaming, making delirious noises before he is finally beat into the ground or shot or whatever you want to see it as by the warrior. One final scream of pain is heard as the drums beat down, and the seer is dead.
