1.
It sure is good to be back on Terra. One month on Mars, wavering in my memory. Gaping craters, ancient erosion, vitality, motion itself. A world of dust. A world of dust. An envelope instead of evidence? "Rekal," I say aloud.
2.
"Some technique you have," said sardonically. My so-called memory. A trip to Mars? Not even a ticket stub. Nor postcards, nor passport. "Word of advice - Don't discuss your trip to Mars." (That you partially remember) "Don't ask me why!" Did I go to Mars? You would know! By God - I think I went! Simultaneously - I think I didn't go. I'm in trouble.
3.
He seems familiar. Familiar in a blurred, distorted fashion. "You remember? Your trip to Mars?" We know all your actions today. We know all your thoughts today. We know. "Teletransmitter wired in your skull, keeps us constantly informed." Why me? Why me? "Fundamentally, it's between us. We've got to kill you, and right away."
4.
If you follow me, I'll kill you, so don't! Can you hear me thinking? No matter where I go? You'll always be with me. Voluntary surrender. I'll take the risk. "You make the first move! And we'll investigate your possibilities."
5.
A combination of packets: 81, 20, and 6. Maybe it would be better if you came in and supervised? Breathing slowly and regularly. They told me not to tell... mumbling... Dull drug-saturated voice. "That was the agreement, he wasn't even supposed to remember." I wasn’t even supposed to remember?

about

PART TWO is the continuation of PART ONE released in November 2022!

REKÄL is heavily influenced by sci-fi, specifically the works of Philip K Dick. All lyrics are pulled directly from Dick's writings.

This release, "PART TWO," uses excerpts from the short story "We Can Remember It For You Wholesale." The movie "Total Recall" was adapted from the short story, so the plot may seem familiar to any Arnold or Dick Heads.
