Jupiter in Scorpio
02:28
|
|||
In the eye the stinger with a thousand inky lights goes by
And when I'm in a movie I can see the time
The clown and cowboy killed their way across the miles
The screens in all the houses and the words
that flow like ghosts
like what do you want to get out of this
why are you doing this
rip the shimmer
step into it
spin your web across the universe
Jump the scales and bring them all inside your head
And then you see the floors are full of memories
And all the sounds reverberate inside your skull
And then you know the words are doggerel and you go
Life's a bitch and there's nothing you can do about it
Hitch your cart to it and shut your mouth
Jupiter in Scorpio is like a flame with no end shrieking across the sky

Who Cares
02:43
|
|||
Who cares what you're going through
Who cares that you're strange
Who cares for the thoughts that keep rattling your brain
I care for the birds that sing high up in the trees
Who cares because caring is so morally deranged
I care for the photographs and all the troubled past
I care for the cinema and all the ways we laughed
Even though the memories are never what they seem
Who cares if you're living if life is but a dream

Blue Hell
03:02
|
|||
The sun will soak your bones
In the blue hell there's nowhere to go
Dreams will rip the seams from above you
And send them on down
The house on the hill is waiting there still
The banners they wave as if to say
Come over here, we're welcoming you
Slip into night, turn into day
The sun will soak your bones
In the blue hell there's nowhere to go
Dreams will rip the seams from above you
And send them on down
Coffins will greet the bones in the ghost towns and send them around
Horns blare in the evening
Hear the trumpets
Send them on down

pandemic, keep on smiling
while thousands are dying
in the middle of the day
who are you to walk away
and what do we do
and where do we go
and what do we think and
what do we know
if there's a way out of here
who's to say if it will appear
we are
i wish that i could see a light
a light out there, out of me
and i know that it takes time
a revolution of the mind
and what i want to see
is everyone happy, everyone free
liberate the laws that bind us to the evils of mankind
the filthy ground is what i see
there's a virus after me
we are

I wanted a mystery to waste my time
A bit of the history when things were mine
I put up with the misery and held the line
It will come back to me
Soul of eternity
On wings that always know
Which way the wind will blow
I wanted to see what there was for me
And now that I've found what lays on the ground
I thought that a mystery would change my mind

Inward Silence

Fighting with your friend
When will it all end
Never be forgiven, never be forgotten
Fighting through the haze
The never-ending days
Can there be a mission to bring me my ambition
Waiting on the phone
Am I all alone
Never in a hurry
Down like poison curry
Wandering through the hall
Now I place the call
Hands will do the thinking on some inner sinking
Now I wait for you
Or do I wait for me
One of us better get with it before we make a mess of it
I don't see how what happens to me can be my own fault
or a reason to be
Get it and leave or give it and stay
At least I won't have to be taken away
What do I want and what can you give
Is this all in my own stupid head
Hunger and death are all that I know
Is it all right yeah let's take it slow
Fluttering through the dark
Am I my own heart
Going past the violence of the inward silence

Skin On Your Skull
03:02
|
|||
I have skin on my skull
baring teeth to show the world
Increase the pull of the skin on your skull
Touching the fingers to the pulse of the empty call
Stretch the skin back on your skull
How can my brain be so wrong sometimes
Sinking dreams
Drinking seams in the fractal bones
Diving cars to craving bars
The bottom of the ocean is where you keep them
Sharks and bones
Whales call
Sleeping waves
Heed the call
Lost inside, traveling screams
Dolphin dreams
Down the hull
Here to cull all the skin on the skulls

Weight Of the World
02:24
|
|||
Sometimes I feel the pull of the weight of the world
Dragging me down down down
Then I want to go to the heart of it all
Into the ground ground ground
And then I realize a simple place inside
Where I can still be free, go along with me
Sometimes I feel the weight of the world

Goodbye My Friend
02:28
|
|||
Goodbye, my friend
goodbye like a fever
I hope you can remember what was in the end
Soaring down
Crashing through the ceiling
Witness the unveiling of the spirit crown
Go with me, go into the future
What is there remaining of the human mind
All I see is a deep illusion acting in collusion with the treasured hand
