Red Wooden Crucifix
04:00
|

Standing alone with your red wooden crucifix
Please deliver me from all of the evil that exists in men
You know you never had
And you'll never know you're lost
And you're not alone
Now that the air that you had, it was never rent
And nobody else could have known all the time you spent
Oh you'd rather not explain it
You'd rather not remain in the outer world
Yeah you can stay stupid, stay drunk
But nobody can know
Now that the time it arrives and you can't commit
To things that you never believe could exist in this
You're not alone
Yeah you know you're not alone
But you're damned for love
Because you couldn't quite contain it
And you couldn't put the time on
Your aim
Even now as the awkward moments,
Staged complaints
You never know but the problems start to trade place
And nobody could tell you all the things that break state
You know I'm never gonna keep you under
You probably can't explain it
But you're probably not the same as you ever were
Yeah and it probably was a mistake
It shouldn't take you that long
And now that the body is starting to work
And you're not alone
Yeah you can stay stupid, stay drunk
But nobody can know
The pain
Of walking, gnashing teeth and standing in the rain
Stained
Understand all the choices that you made
In haste
Before you add all the information: place and state
Perspectives change, but the outward stays the same
Perspectives change, but the outward stays the same
Perspectives change, but the outcome stays the same

The Heart
04:32

Now if it makes
I'll come up and stay away
and we'll lie in wait
stay, come back and help our place
no one the same
so you see
there's nothing left to wait for
the age is coming babes
in the place they all will take their places
Oh now you know
what is sown
it's going to be an awful clue for you
new in your arms
I know we told you wrong
suddenly it wasn't fair though
Again, it's waned
I blamed
no one was standing there
as all you mistake
your mourning (morning) always left its taste
I know no one knows
until you get some one down
it'll be an in-between
So, even though someone goes
and in the end nothing comes
and I have no real home for now
And in the heart you know
and in the heart you grow

Zombies
06:25

Even if you don't remember
even if you don't believe the same
I don't want to remember
how it feels
in the mire
over and under all the things they lay in vain
I don't want to remember
how it feels
Over your body
and under your bones
I don't know whats left
but I'm told that its burning
with all of the sin that
they put into my head
it comes and it goes
and nobody notices.
Even if you don't remember
even if you know you don't believe his name,
I don't want to remember
how it feels.
walk on water
over, underneath the son you might have failed
I don't want to remember
how it feels.
Under the sun that
is suddenly gone
we sensed a mistake that
they're covering over
with all the desires
they put into my head
we may not be zombies
but were walking dead
to all the empire
holding gold as god in your eyes
they need you excited
and all of the empire
go ahead and take my advance
I'm no longer fighting.
Even though I know I'm right
I'm in over my head at times.
even though I know I'm right
I'm in over my head at times.
even though I know I'm right
I'm in over my head at times.
even though I know I'm right
I'm in over my head.
I needed an army
as all of the empire toils
he's going out in your eyes
a kingdom eroding.
and all of the holding out remains what you will
we're lost and withholding
Even though I know I'm right
I'm in over my head

Modern Mission
05:10
|
|||
And the modern mission
is to keep the soul alive and bright
even into the pitch of night
and the modern mission
is to keep the soul alive inside
even when you're denied your mind
And if the hearts unite
and if the timing's right
then it buys time
and if the hearts in line
as the hearts purify
its tuned by
The modern mission
is to keep the soul alive with life
even though you can't prove you're right
with no ammunition
to anesthetize your blinded eyes
against illusions of light and time
So when the heart reminds
what the heart requires
if the timing's right then you'll be fine
and if the hearts in line
as the hearts purify
its tuned by
The modern mission is to keep the soul alive thru the long and storming night
Our lives are
the modern mission to keep the soul alive thru the long and storming night

Walkins

You know your mind is coming up inside
and you don't have and alabai
in a riddle where you've never seen where you've been
I know there's probably not an answer here
to get off your battle tears
swimming in your mild foaming water.
How'd you know?
Barren golden why'd you take it home
How'd you know?
All you know is supposed to get it home
Feelings down you can't prepare
I haven't been anywhere
and you haven't been telling me what's going on and
I don't know,
i know that you had to try,
know my arms are burning,
I haven't seen you anytime, anytime
Now there's more taking over, time to hear you more
light
every night
just eternity before the light
odd again
odd again
Last night i went out to travel while
took my hands and burned a night
you haven't seen that kind of thing and i don't mean that
things aren't always where you haven't tried
and we've got all these seals inside
and somethings always going by
it lives and dies
Oh it takes you home
lets you know it up so sigh no more.
Pride
know your mind
self assurances you haven't died.

Little Shop of Horrors
02:41
|
|||
I'd better drive
I better get away from here
before I get too close
before I go and loose control.
I desire all of these answers
and all of them slowly
now that your home
now that your empty
where would you know it?
cause in your dirty feet
I haven't told you what I will
as rolled all your eyeballs toward the light
and nobody's human so I leave them
to go away and fight
you're right
you catch your mind reminding me that you're my enemy
If you're willing to go there
you're only in motion as long as you hope
it's a dirty reminder
that you haven't held your sense of wonder lately baby
you're covered in honey
the battle remotely can be viewed
You can't satisfy the demons that you keep
and it grows
your little shop of horrors needs to feed itself again

So Long
03:50
|

So long
all things material
forevermore, forevermore
so long
all things material
forevermore, forevermore
And now we're on our own
from long ago
So long
all things material
forevermore, forevermore
so long
all things material
forevermore, forevermore
And now we're on our own
we're sent away
Even though you ask for
even though you never know you're not alone with anyone is all
even though you ask for
even though you always look for all but would you ever know?
I wonder
Even though you ask for
even though you never know you're not alone with anyone and no one
even though you ask for
even though you always look for all but would you ever know?
I wonder.

The Valley
03:32
|
|||
As you offer up your animals
and as you throw them on the alter
As if you held on, if you held on, if you held on too long.
If you held on, if you held on too long.
And you ask yourself why do we disappear?
And you ask yourself why do we disappear into it?
As you offer up your dignity
and wash away the sins they held to me.
As if you held on, if you held on have you held on too long?
If you held on, if you held on too long.
And you ask yourself why do we disappear?
And you ask yourself why do we disappear into it?
Knee deep in the valley.

Hour of Honor
02:34
|
|||
I haven't taken my pills
I'm loosing all this time
there might be hope for me someday
but I don't realize
And with all these things I'm going through..
I have all these answers
except I never asked you why
the veil's curtains were opened up and pulled aside
Close what you have to
Time won't let you
enter here again
no one else will find
where this is hidden
this is a life I have left
and instead of dying
this is arriving
in my hour of honor

As I'm Exploding
05:47
|
|||
Don't give up
have no fear of the body
sell yourself on the hard life and fleeting things
all that you hope for
is taking your energy
Freedom know all the ways of the aliens
call them out
if you knew what it cost
you might not like their
might not like their accomplishments
Bide your time in the eyes of the Father and
be
here
now
Masquerade- how you face what you've grown into
get me up get me out I don't like it here
its more than
I
signed
up
for
and I'm failing to assimilate
As I'm exploding
I alone
into the end of the night
and the world
As I'm exploding
I alone
maybe there might lie a sign
As I'm exploding, I alone
and the open lie awake
Heaven help us
they've no faith in the underworld
walk away
save yourself
save your integrity
keep to yourself
and keep clear of your enemies
Find the key
tend your light
practice modesty
carry on have no fear of the mysteries
light is let in
and they're running away in droves
As I'm exploding
I alone
out of the end of your life
As were exploding
right hand and I
right be they that ask
turn and wave goodbye
goodbye

The Fog
02:35
|
|||
I'll be wise
the same things like
now their minds
strive to get light
i
had been blind
to the time
that it took me over
power now wake it up
getting stronger as we learn
time to heal
time to sleep
time forbade us
and just keeps repeating
now you would
try to be good
I was sure
that a sign would wake them further
in a high place build a fire
feeling safe for now but the trouble is coming
hope can't come too soon
count the hours down to get through
to a time
when they can say
we survived to witness the start of something.

Keeping Secrets
02:34
|
|||
I tore it open
took a knife to the center
destroyed my ego to survive to remember
don't want to meddle, but a segment oppressed it
and they'll keep plenty of secrets if they get whats expected
Are they all sleepwalking or what the hell?
or am i just slowly sinking again?
or what?
I said "I'm fine" but you said "I'm defeated"
I know the shit doesn't stop but its sad you stopped dreaming
they don't want you to learn how to reason
if they could wake up they just might stop the bleeding
Are they all sleepwalking or what the hell?
or am i just slowly sinking again?
or what?
I tore it open
took a knife to the center
destroyed my ego to survive and remember
they'll keep plenty of secrets if they get what they're needing
and keep on deceiving
and keep on deceiving

Anesthesia Subsides
05:03
|
|||
My first words were "I don't care" it was all downhill from there
And my first words came in despair
They were vulnerable and scared
And then the whole planet grew overcrowded
And I needed escape
Exiled to waste in this human behavior
I was first hurt coming down the stairs
I dove headfirst into the sliding kitchen door
The emergency room was bright
And I didn't know which way was up or down
And I held out my hands
There were ten fingers on each of them
Come down to my level
My line line of sight
At my bedside
As I mumble a line
And the anesthesia subsides to a throbbing forehead
And watery eyes
And takes me some time
To recognize
Who you are
Who am I
My first words were I don't care
It's been all down downhill from there

Consolamentum
01:59
|
|||
I'm on your mind
and even though you cannot
I'll know I'm found
I let you go
and all your woes materiel
and let me guess,
do you understand what happened?
and we start to grow
and we know
that it's probably gonna happen
and we start too soon
there's no more room
as I walked your last remaining halls
and in the end
you sure held out for nothing
as we look to God to ignite us
and everything a lesson
as we wander on
I wanted more
as when we roamed
remember how
we understood
but we never learned the lesson
