Viginiti Tres - Saturn Reborn 5=2 3. It takes 23 seconds for blood to circulate throughout the entire body. Each parent contributes 23 chromosomes to the DNA of a child. In humans the 23rd chromosome determines gender. The human arm has 23 joints in it. Earth's axis is off by 23.5 degrees. December 23, 2012 is the date the Mayan calendar ends, predicting an apocalyptic event. The Knights Templar had 23 Grand Masters, the last being Jacques de Molay. Pi's first six digits (3.14159) added together equal 23. Volkswagen's VW logo contains the Roman numeral V (2 3=5) and the 23rd letter W. Volkswagen is based in Wolfsburg which starts with the 23rd letter. 666 is said to be taken from 2/3 = 0.666. Apophenia is the experience of seeing patterns or connections in random or meaningless data, Synchronicity is a word coined by the Swiss psychologist Carl Jung to describe the "temporally coincident occurrences of causal events."

Wasn't sure if I was digging it at first, but 4th time through it's becoming an excellent song.

The vocals on this song, at times, remind me of (please excuse me!) Marylin Manson. That's not meant pejoratively, I happen to like Marylin Manson.

Overwhelmed is what you would be
If placed in my position.
Such a heavy burden now to be the one.
Born to bear and read you all the details of our ending.
To write it down for all the world to see.
But I forgot my pen.
Shit, my bad again. Typical.
