This is certainly very unique and I like the way you describe the lyric writing process. I've never heared anybody write lyrics in that way and I think it's very cool. That being said, I feel that the arrangement would be more pleasant with more variety. Since the melodic structure is a bit erratic and the instrumentation does not change, I think that the song gets a bit strenuous after a while. But I also appreciate that that is your style, as it's unlike anything I've heared before. The interlude thing at around 5:10 does a good job of introducing some change and the part at around 8:20 is nice.
It's a natural outgrowth of juggling a regular 9-5 job rather than being a full time musician that I rarely get to build a non-unison instrument set, perhaps a cloning of the non-piano instrument past the interlude would have served it very much better.
I also probably have too much lyrical material in there by approximately one-third :)
(Which strained the process further)
I could feel that it was more flawed than the recent 'Interrobang / Real Penetration Has Never Been Tried' which I believe had far more successful flow.
Glad you gave it the effort of a full analysis.
gave you an Itch follow, if you like the things on my page(s), consider doing the same.
Cheers!

One thing I'm in love is definitely the aesthetic of the whole song. However, I feel like there was something missing or at least, well I usually get pretty overwhelmed if something is imbalanced but it's just my biases! A very long song with unique takes is very impressive!
I concur the front half was okay but it struggles later, just time constraints and I probably would have cut some of the things out that don't quite work. And then the result would have been more like 'Interrobang' recently that was 7min instead of 9min:

....which has a much better flow to it at least in my opinion
Glad you gave it a try and soldiered through it!
