| umm i think the line "the last thing I remember now" definately gives it away that this is were julio/cerpin taxt commits suicide. I could be wrong, it just makes since to me that way. The album ends when julio's life dies, that just seems logical to me. The last cuplet of lyrics seems to me like Cerpin Taxt is talking, saying this to himself as he commits suicide. | |

| i think the "who brought me here" part is julio waking from the coma he was in | |

| to me it seems like Inertiatic and Take the Veil are like a prologue and epilogue to the story. Inertiatic starts off by saying 'now i'm lost' which is a great line to start the story with (not couting the intro thingy...) Then Roulette Dares really kicks it in. Same with Televators being the real 'high' point of the story, when everything comes crashing down. Take The Veil seems like it's summing up the entire album and his final feelings. Kinda as if it's taking place simultaneously with Televators... clever stuff. I just get blown away by the ever so appropriate imagery this album conveys. Doesn't Televators feel like THE most 'perfect' suicide song? :P | |

| Then you'll be delighted to know that Omar wrote all the songs apart from Drunkship and Apparatus which he co-wrote with Cedric. | |
