about

"Into the Depths" represents water and also alcohol. The subject has decided at the end of "Common Ground" to forge his own reality within his subconscious, giving him the power of a god. His consciousness is the ocean around him. He must drown himself within the ocean to become part of it. He becomes the ocean and enjoys the power that it holds, but at the end of the song he becomes aware that he is trapped inside the same ocean, unable to go beyond himself.

lyrics

Consciousness around me
An ocean to die in and sink within
A tar pit to pull me under
Suffocate on my own breath

Fight it, I'm still breathing
Smoke fills my lungs pushing me further down
Embrace it, let the water in
Red eyes are glaring it's taking me now

Let go and feel the clouds below you
Sink to the bottom to find the air

Now that you've become one with the water you can never resurface again
Convulsing, my body's becoming something that is not from this world
Realign the pieces so they can fit together in a different way
Bone flows through blood and water converging, swirling in chaos
All the pieces are there they just feel like they belong to another
State of matter or ionic charge, just don't fit anymore
Don't let it flow away, or you'll be changed forever; a liquid spirit
Find all the particles, bring them with you,
Now swim!

Get to the volcano where solids are made again
Find the wise turtle to guide you and reclaim your body

Swim into the abyss
Of the deep realms we have not found
Find it beyond the horizon
The colors are changing there's no time left

Felt drowned in myself

I am Nereus I move what I want and I claim what I wish
This realm is mine now drown everything to become it
I am the ocean around myself trapped within
