about

Around 530 BCE Pythagoras formed a secret philosophical school devoted to, among other things, the belief that reality was governed by ratios of whole numbers. While on a ship, one of Pythagoras' followers showed him a square with unit side lengths. The diagonal measure of this square had a length that can be shown to be inexpressible in ratios of whole numbers. Pythagoras was so disgusted with this that he threw his student off the side of the boat to drown and swore the rest of the group to secrecy.

lyrics

drown
let the boiling seas calm your doubts
drown
let the heresy of proof consume you
you will be forgotten
your blasphemy will sink with your tainted soul
drown
let the truth flood your veins
your body burns
and your breath will burst from your body
in the wreckage of the rational
your corpse will bloat and burst
sowing the ocean with the seed of your apostasy
and the waters fill your lungs
you will be buried beneath the waves
you will die in the embrace of my shattered faith
