I would have to agree with you, this is also my favorite In Flames song. I'll make a stab at the meaning of this song from what it actually says. First verse speaks of the new age of creating cyborgs. Lacking human qualities, they are perfect creations. This extends into the chorus about the ceremonial perfection nonsense. The second verse describes a horrible world where the ugly and narrow minded, perhaps the cyborgs themselves destroying all memory (RAM) of human kind. The following bridge puzzles the hell out of me. Chaos should be unsequenced. Installing things such as machines? Cyborgs? Awaiting the restortion of chaos probably refers to the Big Bang theory that before the universe was created there was nothing but chaos, then all of a sudden BANG! I guess they are waiting for the end of the world. Don't worry about this section... I'm not. Now for the meaning of all this nonsense. Sounds to me like they are against technology, as is the case with many of their other songs. Our society has become so automated that eventually we won't have a reason to live and will be 'formated' from all memory. We've only seen the beginning. Perhaps they are talking about all those movies we've come to know and love such as Terminator... we've all seen Terminator haven't we? I'm not sure what core they're talking about, nor what slowly moving bird of prey they speak of. But the last line I enjoy the most. Apparently technology will be about the destruction of the earth, something far far far worse than hell. I will make the very notion of Hell seem celestrial in comparison.

Dray said it. it's about the end of the world being brought about by machines making it so that humans don't need to do anything. i also agree with VivaHate95. the album is definately about that. great song too, very unique. you gotta hand it to Jesper on the writing of this song, and Niklas on the lyrics, for that matter...

Cre-Age-Aeon sounds like "Creation". But "aeon" means an indefinately long amount of time, or more specifically, the longest division of geologic time (2 or more eras). This is coupled with "age" which is obviously "a long time". The next line talks about new beginnings (creation) and an infinate (aeon) vacuum. So it all links up. I guess it means once we are totally controlled by "noble cyborg savages", our own potential freezes... something along those lines.

The bridge "Installing awaiting the restoration of unsequenced chaos" makes perfect sense. He's waiting for the world to be restored to its former unsequenced chaos-as in, he's waiting for the day when the world will again be unpredictable and chaotic, as opposed to automated and mundane.

I pretty much agree with Dray on the second verse... i think its explaining that perhaps a civilisation of "cyborgs" were around and the world and society was spiralling downward so these cyborgs needed to do something about it.. so this "Dystopia Electro-heart" character destroyed all technology and memory of what we were and how we came to be before "time" so we could live for a few million-billion years once again before it will happen again... when technology get too out of hand and control and the world crumbles beneath power and the world itself when life, memory and technology will have to be destroyed again. so yeah..

this is the gay utopia that man has finally created...where we are nothing like what we should be, its a scary though to the writer, and it gets destroyed in episode 666

Thematically, this is in keeping with the rest of Whoracle (and the Jester race) for that matter; it is about humanity bringing doom upon itself. Specifically it is about individuals becoming cogs in 'the machine' and losing your humanity. Stellar song. It makes me want to have Jesper's babies... 'We´ve only seen the outlines of the beginning and this core, the slowly moving raptor will make the very notion of Hell seem celestial in comparison'
