<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hold tight, horizon minds<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s writing its name in the sky<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s paradise<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We fade away into the night <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Beverly Hills, nuclear winter<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What should we wear and who\u2019s for dinner? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the summer, for the summer <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hold tight, our love will fade out<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s writing its name in the sky <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And I\u2019ll stop and stare <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019ll fade away into the night <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s paradise <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For now we go under the knife <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For one time, oh, some doctors <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Divided by night time<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Julian Jaynes\u2019 controversial theory about the origin of consciousness (1.5<\/a>) openly associates the bicameral structure that allowed the god-king to hear the voices of the gods with current psychiatric conditions such as schizophrenia. According to this thesis, it is likely that the separation of the activity of the brain hemispheres led to a series of conditions similar to those found in today\u2019s psychiatric hospitals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The voices in schizophrenia, says Jaynes,<\/p>\n\n\n\n take any and every relationship to the individual. They converse, threaten, curse, criticize, consult, often in short sentences. They admonish, console, mock, command, or sometimes simply announce everything that\u2019s happening. They yell, whine, sneer, and vary from the slightest whisper to a thunderous shout. Often the voices take on some special peculiarity, such as speaking very slowly, scanning, rhyming, or in rhythms, or even in foreign languages. There may be one particular voice, more often a few voices, and occasionally many. As in bicameral civilizations, they are recognized as gods, angels, devils, enemies, or a particular person or relative.1<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n If we stick to this thesis, \u201cmadness\u201d would have played an essential role in the fabric of pre-modern societies; however, by losing its place, the neurological descendants of the king-god and the prophet would have become our psychotic and mentally ill, individuals unable to tell if their voices are actually within or without.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
