About this track:
Fourth track from "Chronophage".
" Circles" features the mathematical constant π (3.14159...) in the riff from 00:35 till 00:59.. The same riff is repeated various times in the song.
The riff goes 26 digits.
Pi is also featured in part of the lyrics from the first line to the sixth line, each word has a number of letters corresponding to the mathematical constant.
"Circles" is partly inspired by the Darren Aronofsky surreal movie "Pi".
Now I, with a sight, beginning to divide.
Always the lines entwined, endlessly decimal.
Suspended and in the smallest line.
Unseen to vision till the sun collides,
to conceal perpetual signs.
So everyday, anywhere, void I recognize, circles I divide.
The beginning is always the end,
a constant with improbable end.
Hidding the deepest secrets,
The pattern is everywhere (as you hear it)
Circles!
"When I was a little kid my mother told me not to stare into the sun. So once when I was six, I did."
Circles!
Now I, with a sight, beginning to divide.
Always the lines entwined, endlessly decimal.
