Understanding in a car crash

Thinking about the line "it's two hands still point to the same time 12:03" in understanding. When i read about the song it said the line was about moving forward but i feel like it goes deeper than that. There is a Geoff Rickly interview from around 2001 (that i lost but ill link it if i can find it again) where he talks about how full collapse is about cycles and how life repeats itself, and the way that the opening and ending tracks of the album reflects that. Now think about the line literally and use a broken clock as a compass. İf its 12.03 then eventually you will end up going in a circle, like how full collapse is about cycles. But also feel like its connected to Waiting and Common Existence as well. Waiting has the song "where the circle ends" which literally has circle in its name and the song refers to a "basic flaw" which in this case is a lack of empathy for those around us. Now think about the lines in You Were The Cancer. İt also refers to a basic flaw. Everything is connected in a way that highlights the circle that is life and a basic flaw of common existence
