Word phrase in Knight of Fire (Xenogears, Disc 2, Track 3)

[demalavor]

Does anyone know what it says in this song? I can never make it out, but I've come to the conclusion that it sounds like something along hte lines of "total sensor in the gas chamber". I know it makes no sense, but that's what it sounds like ;p

Anyone know for sure? Does Mr. Mitsuda read these forums? Maybe he can clear it up :)

I remember reading on the Q&A section of his english website that Mitsuda didn't knew the meaning of this phrase.

It's probably not even a phrase in a recognizable language; the game Xenogears itself was supposed to be based in the distant future, and by that time, language has evolved. They called it the "Ignas" dialect in the game, and the Solarians had their own language, for that matter.

It's a touch that really makes the composition more dramatic, however.

This is purely speculation based on how it sounds to me, but it sounds like:

"Total seconds in closed gas chamber".
