The Horizon sits beyond your deviant eyes Catalyst in the undertow as you chase your highs You buy everything that they sell to you The thought of an unfounded change comes through Scars in her eyes truth beyond lies Catalyst in the undertow of the way things are Rise from the shadows as you pick your scars You buy everything that they sell to you Consequences lie in the wakes of fools
2.
Prodigal Son 04:48
Backstabber the culture of doom locales flee and stray Understand this point of view and go away I’ve come as a messenger speaking the truth to a place that sickened me through my youth You think you know me? I’ll bet you do but that person's dead to me, new life new rules The White cast out and shunned because of who I am A disappointment looked upon not giving a damn I’ve lost some close to me when I went away But they expect this prodigal son to be unchanged To be unchained
3.
An ancient time gone by shrouded in smoke a prophet he stood on high with sandal and cloak A ritual veiled in lies open your heart to my bloodshot eyes Two thousand years have passed shrouded in sin beaten and battle torn with leathered skin Stand on your mountain and call unto me, grant me the wisdom for I hear and see For I seek your knowledge and I seek your power Grant this to me so that life I may devour
4.
Oracle 06:16
Destroy a world inside a mind to speak to cull and leave behind Light hair and eyes no soul or spine but she moves the sky in her search sight The blind have sight the blond she’s right her soul is night weakness I fight

6.
The prophet spoke his hymn oracles cloaked in sin Mages speak of death, of frail and frozen breath Blind me with wisdom a fallen clan spewed forth from the mountain your beckoning hand Plagued with betrayal and lies illusive higher skies son returns a new found guest unknown and rejected best Prophet messiah your king of kings spew forth your reason as deaths toll rings
7.
Back to your lands sweet son of demise plagued and longing you’ve grown to despise disputed knowledge disputed plan promise of fortune with empty hand Arrogant professor of a promised land adjusted aggressor with a passive stand temple of knowledge speaking the truth a place that sickened me through my youth
8.
The Descent 02:56
9.
The smoke has cleared through ashes and tears the aftermath is just as you feared ingest what you will with valor and skill mindful of what the past has killed A sacred Reich handed down generations lost now are found forgotten place forgotten time’s total rebirth of your body and mind Open your eyes to dim lit skies as darkness upon you consumes all your light A new dawn appears embracing your fear has washed away all tyranny and guilt Take salvation and do what you will isolation a perfected skill the repression you thought it was good there’s blank stares in those places I’ve stood

about

SWR's latest release "Acquisition of Perception" is a throwback, or a tribute of sorts, to the 70's style concept album. With seamless transitions between songs, and an abstract metaphorical theme to the album, this is SWR's most thought out and elaborate release to date.
*NOTE* - this album is best listened to from start-to-finish, without skipping tracks.
