| Song | Rational Gaze |
| Artist | Meshuggah |
| Album | Nothing - Rerelease |
| 作词 : Haake, Thordendal | |
| Squint your eyes to see clearly, blur reality to make it real | |
| Let focus go from your deceiving eyes to know what's been concealed | |
| We've all been blinded, subjects to visual misinformation | |
| A systematic denial of the crystalline | |
| To see the fine grain, to read the hidden words | |
| The context of parallel truth devoid of fragmentation | |
| Our light induced image of truth, filtered blank of its substance | |
| As our eyes won't adhere to telltale lies | |
| Everything examined, separated, one thing at a time | |
| The harder we stare the more complete the disintegration | |
| Rational gaze, eyes re-opened | |
| Reasoning focalized, receptors activated | |
| Perspectives distorted, the ladder beyond our grasp | |
| The twin-headed serpent forever hidden | |
| Where's the true knowledge? | |
| Where engines of the sane and insanity merge? | |
| The clarity, the unity | |
| Reality untouchable, transparent | |
| Invisible to our fixed, restricted fields of vision | |
| Existence taken for granted, absolute | |
| Possessed, owned, controlled by the common sense infected rational gaze | |
| Onward forever we walk among the ignorant | |
| Never stray from the common lines |
