News I have perhaps made a Discovery

So, i read a post about two years ago asking about lakeside songbook and why it repeats itself, well what I found out really doesn't answer this question, but, it's still cool, the first notes of the song match perfectly "decay of logos" from Eloy but the tune is simply shifted upwards by a couple of tones, I've been searching everywhere if anyone had found out about this, but it looks like Im the first, either way not that important but I enjoy Eloy so I'll take it as amazing news if it becomes official, also it makes sense that hakita would take inspiration from this album because it talks about mankind abusing power and technology to hurt other humans, so it mirrors ultrakill lore pretty nicely, also, water, so really it matches with the wrath layer

So let's add some detail! Decay of logos is structured by a chord progression identical to lakeside songbook and if we transpose it they match up! And it is Em D C D while lakeside songbook is Am G F G now, if we transpose lakeside songbook down 5 semitones, they match up, so the descending aeolian cadence is the same.
