The Unseen
Clock DVA Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A plan of locations
Cross points of agencies
A program of density
Of a force that cannot be determined
Science at this point must become alembic
Magnetic field disturbances
We have lost all contact
We are alone
In the shadow of shadows
In the dream of dreams
In the sleep of sleep
I see its form
We have no more time now
We are alone
Final entry report
I have removed all obstacles
That impedes its progress
My duty is to serve the power
That holds me captive
There are no more choices
We have opened a new door
To a new horror that will finally destroy us
Clock DVA's "The Unseen" is a haunting and ominous song that paints a picture of a mysterious and powerful force that is beyond human comprehension. The opening lines describe a series of reports detailing the location of cross points of agencies, which seems to suggest some sort of clandestine operation taking place. However, the reports also mention a "force that cannot be determined," which instantly strikes a somber and frightening tone. Science, which is typically seen as an infallible and logical force, is described as being unable to navigate the unknown territory.
As the song continues, the lyrics describe the loss of contact with something unseen that has caused magnetic field disturbances. The singer is then thrust into a world of shadows, dreams, and sleep, where they begin to see the form of the unseen. It's clear that whatever is happening is beyond human comprehension, and the singer realizes that they are alone in this strange and terrifying world.
The final lines of the song convey a sense of resignation and defeat. The singer states that they have removed all obstacles that impede the progress of the unseen force, and that their duty is to serve the power that holds them captive. They acknowledge that there are no more choices, and that they have opened a new door to a new horror that will finally destroy them. The song ends on a bleak note, leaving the listener with a sense of unease and fear.

I must say that the lyrics are... well... lol... the last stanza: "Final entry report I have removed all obstacles That impede its progress My duty is to serve the power That holds me captive There are no more choices We have opened a door To a new horror that will finally destroy us." Wickedly awesome, humoring, in an almost disturbing way.
