The robot is god. Cold, digital, and after being saved by the band, it then conumes them.
The future is bleak. We have already poisoned this planet. The governments of the world are run by a common organization who is trying to create maximum strife, so that we can reach a point where the entirety of humanity will evolve into consciousness because of negative emotion reaching critical mass. It is entirely possible that to evolve, we must shed this dimension, which is an illusion. This could very well be a recording, being experienced many times over, possibly at the same time.
Imagine if you knew that only through making the lowest reality (earth 3d) unbearable, that you could bring humanity to something entirely better, in the most unimaginable way. Being foreign and confusing and requiring some form of death, its not the kind of trip we would all make unless we were sure, and i hope these men know what they are doing, because it seems it is too late to turn back, and dont think that was ever an option.
This earth wouldnt work unless you forgot everything about who you are. We experience emotion based on the possibility that this is all we got, one life. Emotion is unique to our dimension, hence the beautifully cold, calm expressionless gaze of the statues at Giza, looking way into the distance.
Listening to coldplay gives me chills, and makes my mind race like an eagle soaring over a mountainscape. I too have a younger brother, and i am there to help him, when he needs me. I think of him everytime i hear this song.
