| Things we tell ourselves in the dark |
A fever dream
Reach across the streets
The streets of legacy
Encase a throat of gold
The things we tell ourselves in the dark
Never heard what was said
To weep alone in this racing madness
Bright eyed with power
Prettiest at the ball
Grandest dreams of all
Machine-like precision to rid me of concern
The empathetic creatures are hunted for reward
It's sorted
It's boring
Prosperity
Beggars worship in the street
Dropping flowers by my feet
As it is
What it was
To all the old egos we've sold
How does it grow?
Marigold
To all the old egos we've sold
How does it grow?
Marigold
Kiss the ring
Miserable degrees
A figment of our nightmare
I'll have a little fun
With a slightly loaded gun
Please, try and hear me out
Machine-like precision to rid me of concern
The empathetic creatures are hunted for reward
It's sorted
You're boring
Prosperity
Prosperity
Lift
Place
Proceed
I'm standing by your back door
Waiting to strike and capture
Machine-like precision
Lift
P-P-Place
Proceed
I'm standing by your back door
Waiting to strike and capture
The empathetic creatures
Machine-like precision
Blinded by my shining star
Lurching with my fat cigar
A showering of gold
Secretly smoldering
Can't find peace within
Secretly smoldering
Secretly smoldering
Can't find peace within
Peace within
Trapped in twisted spaces
Dissolve the crowd
Devour
La dee da
Trapped in twisted spaces
Dissolve the crowd
Devour
La dee da
Trapped in twisted spaces
Trapped, twisted, devour, twisted
Dissolve the crowd
And enter
Devour
Dark places
La dee da
Trapped in twisted spaces
Trapped, twisted, devour, twisted
Dissolve the crowd
And enter
Devour
Dark places
La dee da
As it is
What it was
Things we tell ourselves in the dark
In the dark
In the dark
Tell ourselves
As it is
What is was
To all the old egos we've sold
How does it grow?
Marigold
To all the old egos we've sold
How does it grow?
Marigold
To all the old egos we've sold
How does it grow?
Marigold
To all the old egos we've sold
How does it grow?

| God terror |
Did I ask for a symbolic sigh?
Did I shake the hand of your lonely sky?
Horrific symphonies clear through the suffocating air
A screeching mental attack, as the scraping lovers dine
Each of us gaze into a night that's soon forgotten
Catch your breath, your dying breath
Metallic deformation
God terror
Ever after
A collection for the fire
God terror
Never falter
Simmer and boil over
All
God terror
Ever after
As I stand tall
A collection for the fire
All
God terror
Collapse
Never falter
As I
Simmer and boil over
Stand tall
All rise!
All rise!
All rise!
Blood red eyes dart down
The bodies drop, one by one
Chattering
The slow, putrid slurp
All rise!
Leave your note at the door, in case the walls twist and tear
Suffering amongst our own paranoia
Turn
Right
No
Sanity incorporates divinity
Kind of want to get a poison tone
Do I
Answer the phone, is nobody home?
Need I?
Turn
Left
No
Sanity incorporates divinity
Sanity incorporates
Kind of want to get a poison tone
Do I
Answer the phone, is nobody home?
Need I?
God terror
So cynical
Analytical
I want to hold your hand, but it's gone
I want to hold your hand, but it's gone
All rise!
All rise!
All rise!
God terror
Ever after
A collection for the fire
All rise!
God terror
Never falter
Simmer and boil over

| Absent thereafter |
A pyramid of minds stare towards the stars
O geometric, organized polyhedron of secrets and deceit
The human forms, moon shows its gleam
Lights up this hopeless, wide-eyed crowd
A circular pattern, not moving
Alone, but together
The stars stand still for the first time
For the first time in history
This place is the plan?
La-di-da-di
The wind seems
Seems to have stopped
The sounds erase
A spaced glitch, full stop
This place is the plan?
La-di-da-di
The wind seems
Seems to have stopped
The sounds erase
A spaced glitch, full stop
Into our void, I join and gaze above
Slowly, the bodies around me start floating
Oh baby, let me see you fly
Entwined and in sync
I'm sheltered, so sheltered, and separate
Calloused, circular misery
This place is the plan?
La-di-da-di
The wind seems
Seems to have stopped
The sounds erase
A spaced glitch, full stop
This place is the plan?
La-di-da-di
The wind seems
Seems to have stopped
The sounds erase
A spaced glitch, full stop
To be nothing
To be nothing
Bring back the altar
Absent thereafter
In space, in space, I fear tomorrow
Clashing, clashing with our sorrow
To be nothing
Escaping
Absent thereafter
Full of coil
To be nothing
Escaping
Absent thereafter
Full of coil
Your smile's pulling from every line
Just seems to happen every time
P-Pulling back like a lost invite
Now look, look, look, I can't be tonight
Into our constant void
Belong, to what end?
Embrace my existence
There is only silence
Embrace my existence
Watch as it's been pushed away
That's where the good stuff lies
There is only silence
We've come here to lie
To ourselves
To be nothing
Absent thereafter
To be nothing
Absent thereafter
Escaping
Full of coil
To be nothing
Absent thereafter
Your smile's pulling from every line
Just seems to happen every time
P-Pulling back like a lost invite
Now look, look, look, I can't be tonight
I can't be tonight
It's happening, bad medicine
Here we go again, I'll always win
It's happening, bad medicine
Here we go again, I'll always win, always win, always win, always win
Coming to terms
Floating amongst the others
It comes back full circle, speak when spoken to
Looking beyond our mirrors
Pushing through, pushing through further and further
Floating amongst the others
It comes back full circle, speak when spoken to
Looking beyond our mirrors
Pushing through, pushing through further and further
The moon speaks
Loudly
Goodnight
|
 |
| Pause |
Revel in dark cover
Speak up and be a critical partner
Sleep tight
Drink the ache
Wear the rust
Of moments lost
Of fleeting trust
Of fleeting trust
Drink the ache
Wear the rust
Of moments lost
Of fleeting trust
Of fleeting trust
Of fleeting trust

| Door #3 |
A letter from the moon to the ocean
Caressed inside the broken walls
Dimly lit, chains dragging
A peephole darts into what is felt as nothing
Nothing
Nowhere
Corpse flower, you have traveled with
To adore, amongst speaking crows
All alone
A silvery prose
They've sent my thoughts to you
Clinging to life, so tired
An ancient looping reunion
Looping reunion
Stop time
The world moves on
Rewind
The winds of our moments lost
Stop time
The world moves on
Rewind
The winds of our moments lost
Pulling at the tides
The snapping of ghostly fingers
Reminisce the eons
The regression, regression so lovely
Reminisce the eons
To once, to once spew, to once
The same speech following
At every step
Shadowing every move
Shadowing, shadowing
A softly lit corner lights up
Lights up
The world changes with a puff of smoke
Please, I can change
Come visit, I can change
I skinned my knee by habit
My insides are covered in static
Please, I can change
Come visit, I can change
I skinned my knee by habit
My insides are covered in static
Take a drag into your past lives
These stories come and go
Like the tides of yesterday
We'll soon be in a daze
A daze
For days, I have been wandering
I dare
Clawing my feet in the soil
As if I've never been myself
I beg you for my health
On and on, we choke and melt the sun
Caressed in death, soon draw our memories
Live on
Stop time
On and on, we choke and melt the sun
The world moves on
Rewind
Caressed in death, soon draw our memories live on
The winds are lost
Stop time
On and on, we choke and melt the sun
The world moves on
Rewind
Caressed in death, soon draw our memories live on
The winds are lost
Kill, grandson, ransom
These words stop time
Kill, grandson, ransom
These words stop time
Kill, grandson, ransom
They'll find a way
These words stop time
Kill, grandson, ransom
They'll find a way
These words stop time

| Psychomanteum |
And then a shot is heard
A slow motion digital alteration
A cloud of smoke cranes over
Twitching eyes
The black liquid, warm to the touch
Dives down
Silence brought this
The wind of those watching over me
I'm alone with death
A stern judgment, cold to the touch
Dislocate
Giving credence
A mangled brain, dissect me
I'm alone with death
A monk-like state
The rate of my urgency
Time is the chemical, the addiction
Green somewhere
The death is a teaching throughout all of me
Time is the chemical, the addiction
Green somewhere
The death gives meaning
Blue is everything
Sit with yourself in silence
You can hear electricity
Their lives
Un
La Mort
Coil
Shiver and shake in the corner
The sun peaking tightly through the window
To bridge
To shape
Psychomanteum
Psychomanteum
Shiver and shake in the corner
The sun peaking tightly through the window
To bridge
To shape
Psychomanteum
Eight reasons for reasoning
Psychomanteum
Eight reasons for reasoning
The shiny surface of the speculum
To cloud our own unconscious mind
A prelude to the appearance of mental imagery
Scry
Visions of the past
Threaded in murder
An unfocused state of terror
Sit with yourself in silence
You can hear electricity
Secret of the temple
Sit with yourself in silence
Found liminal spaces
You can hear electricity
Their lives
We watch on
See life pass by
The smiles, the cries
Feeling frozen by the obsession
Collide
Carry the memories of a twisted history
Pick up our darkness and worship the Martian
The Martian, the wisdom forgotten
Carry the memories of a twisted history
Pick up our darkness and worship the Martian
The Martian, the wisdom forgotten
Mirador
Uncoil

The devil is hiding behind the wall
In secret, they watch over
Watch over
Watching their steps, none but one
None but one
Take a drag from the cancer of Earth
Fill your soul
Each architect moves the wall
Soon fill the empty soul
Movement of time to analyze
Analyze, analyze
Seems like a fortune
Don't get in my way
Don't get in my way
Remove myself, ourselves from the dark
The things we say to ourselves to create the spark
To reinvent, to massacre an old memory of myself
And watch my skin pool by the ankles and desert, amongst the fireplace
This is where I belong, this is where we've met
For the first time
Remove myself
Let the fire burn
To reinvent
To massacre
Amongst this haunted space
We watch on
See life pass by
The smiles, the cries
Feeling frozen by the obsession
Collide
We watch on
We watch on
See life pass by
The smiles, the cries
Feeling frozen by the obsession
Frozen by the obsession
Collide
We are anything but possible
We are anything but possible

| Slow paranoia |
There's no place for the rainmaker
Lift, place, proceed
Fever dreamer
Marching and singing, to once again find what's inside
We analyze, only to be brought back to what we've always told ourselves
Dream
Marching and singing, to once again find what's inside
We analyze, only to be brought back to what we've always told ourselves
Told ourselves
What we've learned
What we fear
Fever dreamer
Each room moves silent without any notice
Displace me
What we've learned
What we fear
Fever dreamer
With practice we weave through this idea
Can't notice the movement
Post partum selection
Ash spills on our pages
Rewriting outward history
Story ablaze
Prep for the winter
A chandelier
Falls in slow motion
Ten movements spark the destruction
Slow paranoia
Behind door number three
Look in the darkness
The batch is warm, but they are watching
Lift me, free me
Lift me, free me
Let the ink spill
Hats tip to hide a certain mood
Play dead
A ray of light shining up beyond the waters edge
A dreadful grasp into our past
How long will it last?
My lungs can't hold
Soon ripple through hallucination
Fade to my blue space
La-la, la-la
Play dead
A ray of light shining up beyond the water's edge
A dreadful grasp into our past
How long will it last?
My lungs can't hold
Soon ripple through hallucination
Fade to my blue space
La-la, la-la
The overtaken
We are anything but possible
Overcome the overtaken
We are anything but possible
Overcome the overtaken
Heard rings in the distance
Still won't fucking pick up
I asked nicely years ago
Turning to stone
Mannequins waiting for
Instruction
Paranoia
There is no will
No will
The ground's still in place
In place
Still no movement
No movement
No sound, no movement
No sound, no movement
As if
Nature has
Left this place
Fever dreamer
Swallowing water, I'm drowning
Nobody cares, nobody
Flailing
Creating
Waves
Please just watch, please just keep watching
Nobody cares, nobody
Flailing
Creating
Waves
Play dead
A ray of light shining up beyond
And as if
Nature has
Left this place
Fever dreamer
As if
Nature has
Left this place
Fever dreamer
The next phase vomits forth
The next phase vomits forth
With peaceful force
Lift me
Free me
Let the
Ink spill
Slow paranoia
Slow paranoia
Play dead
Play dead
Windows into the soul
Screaming into the void
Tearing across the skies
Experience the touch of euphoria
Tearing across the skies
Glorious
Impermanence
Into the soul
Impermanence
Into the void
Into the void
Lift, place, proceed
Lift, place, proceed
As if
Nature has
Left this place
Fever dreamer
As if
Nature has
Left this place
Fever dreamer
Prep for the winter
A chandelier
Falls in slow motion
The destruction
This paranoia
Behind door number three
Look in the darkness
They are watching

| The blue nowhere |
Don't wash the innocent night
Its dirt cleansed this home
The crushing glare, often opens up the blue nowhere
This door finally opens
We aren't going home
My blurry eyes are seeking
An inner voice gives birth to hope
Wander alone
Held by our own
Time... is the chemical
Searching
Lost and synthetic
Wander alone
Held by our own
Time... is the chemical
Searching
Lost and synthetic
When we see it
When we feel it
Equilibrium
Don't reach this notion
A creature still roams
Horizons never come until we're dead and gone
Wander alone
Held by our own
Time... is the chemical
Searching
Lost and synthetic
Wander alone
Held by our own
Time... is the chemical
Searching
Lost and synthetic
When we see it (Fragile worldly)
When we feel it
When it opens
Equilibrium
When we see it (Visions caress us)
When we feel it
When it opens
Equilibrium
Wander alone
Held by our own
Time... is the chemical
Searching
Lost and synthetic
Wander alone
Held by our own
Time... is the chemical
Searching
Lost and synthetic
Fragile
(When we see it)
(When we feel it)
(When it opens)
(Equilibrium)
Worldly
(When we see it)
(When we feel it)
(When it opens)
(Equilibrium)
Visions
(When we see it)
(When we feel it)
(When it opens)
(Equilibrium)
Caress us
(When we see it)
(When we feel it)
(When it opens)
(Equilibrium)
Tender and scorching

| Beautifully human |
Don't let me wake up
Marigold, marigold
Don't let me wake up
Marigold, marigold
The clock slows down where nothing grows
Weightless paper skin cracks to the bone
Fading fast, faster than I sink in
A fragile shadow
Come closer
Sense this static, dying tone
It's like I'm a small part of this offering
Yelling at the sky like my world don't know
I feel the dawn creep in
It's over
Stretching thin, where meaning dies
Staring straight into the sun
Bliss cannibal, bliss cannibal
My fragile shadow
A harboring of fog entwines the cold
Mysteries we seek from the soul
It's all we are
It's deep in us
Let me rot here in this grace, don't pull back
Like blood drying, watch this vessel melt away
Don't let me wake up
Marigold, marigold
Don't let me wake up
Marigold, marigold
Marigold, marigold
Marigold
As it is, what it was
Things we tell ourselves in the dark
As it is, what it was
Things we tell ourselves in theâ
