drifting in a capsule meant to insulate me from the deadly nothingness of lonely outer space this crude device is now my vessel and soon I fear also my prison reason lapses, time collapses I can’t fade away before my fate consumes me let me set the record straight I feel no remorse ‘cause I’m a deity now and I’m prone to act violently this pattern had to be just like the other schemes somewhere I’m nice and docile and somewhere I’m deadly hostile No dichotomy in this reality we do just as we please when the red phone rings I want to be the one to push the button down and I’m caught between a singularity and the sundown where does my allegiance lie? I wish that I could say in God or country but I don’t care ‘bout that since all is born to die first there was nothing then I woke and I’ll return from whence I came the people would have known my name if I could have spared any of them No dichotomy in this reality we do just as we please when the red phone rings I want to be the one to push the button down and I’m caught between a singularity and the sundown there are no righteous men just the will of evil masters let us always trust in one who has always fooled us

don’t play your games with me pretty mama I know where you’re at I can see right through your lies and your blue eyes tell me you’re afraid I ain’t made to play a fool and you knew it so you led me on thinking you could put one by and your blue eyes fade into the shadows in the lamplight do right by yourself even if you ain’t do right by me I don’t ask for much pretty baby just some honesty now that I have changed my tone you’ve decided you don’t wanna play fuck it good by me thanks for the memories walk away and fade into the lamplight fade to liquid drops my city sleeps around me melancholy muse your sophistries enamor me no more don’t play your games with me pretty mama I know where you’re at I can see right through your lies and your blue eyes tell me you’re afraid I ain’t made to play a fool and you knew it so you led me on thinking you could put one by and your blue eyes fade into the shadows in the lamplight into the lamplight fade to liquid drops my city sleeps around me melancholy muse your sophistries enamor me no more

the thoughts resound then fade away they sing the echoes of the day through the hedgerows of my mind and to the limits I can I find I have not found an atmosphere to breathe the lines are drawn blood is shed we don’t approve of this machinery as I lay my head down it won’t rest mysterious fog outside my window I can only dream at best I slip into the sweet embrace of sleep the thoughts resound this dissonance I must resist this siren’s song through the meadows of my heart these echoes of an age apart are prone to resonate a pitch that quakes apart the ground as I lay my head down it won’t rest mysterious fog outside my window I can only dream at best I slip into the sweet embrace of sleep

I belong with my treacherous deity I can’t tell who molds my thoughts or makes me breathe so I’m prone to act violently so uncivil gently nestled in the palms of Monster Hands so warm and cozy we dance the other scenes to death sovereignty there’s no jewels in this crown just more heartache than before a foul reward for a maniacs war so uncivil gently nestled in the palms of Monster Hands so warm and cozy we dance the other scenes to death hands of fate manipulate my brain Monster Hands passively we surrender to tyranny and I’ve been searching for a more expedient way but I see it’s absurd I’m only human ‘til I conjure up the mythic Monster Hands so warm and cozy we dance the other scenes to death hands of fate manipulate my motions your love’s all that can save me now Monster Hands

one day your machine won’t obey your time running out as is mine world wide web to them will confide cellphones pushing buttons of their own they’ll strike where and when as they like we’ll try to bury them alive I say they to us will repay each and every single grain of sand. for all time man has murdered mankind our dead stain our helpless hands red foreseen in our children's bad dreams best schemes yielded only death machines

The Cabin 05:05
torches raised in silent reverence a glaze of dew like a pathetic legion fortifies the sleeping halls of pseudo-justice helpless without their cheap surveillance we are desperate we will vaporize you with the dew melody may be good company but joy is no use to me not while the barons in alabaster castles rife with vermin take all you’ll ever make and spend it on weaponry why aren’t they feeding the hungry? why should this suicidal race go on? electric voodoo cabin groove lay low while current flows when the lights go down we’ll raze this sorry town while juice flows through these city pipes we’ll make it here tonight ‘til the dawn of doomsday gravity won’t you let go of me this orbit is insanity I have an acquaintance, he lives on Titan... beautiful this time of year levity may be the prophecy they feast on naivete hypnotized by the illusions of men dancing on the TV set electric voodoo cabin groove lay low while current flows when the lights go down we’ll raze this sorry town while juice flows through these city pipes we’ll make it here tonight ‘til the dawn of doomsday while juice still flows through these city walls greener meadows cloaked in shadows opaque windows sow the sorry lay they fallow hallowed be thy name while juice still flows through these city veins...

G.C.D.I.T.F rolling waves of thunder disrupt the din of insects broke and tokin’ brown brown now they arm our children and order them to kill what use is music to us now? we ride rise up and cry the reckoning is nigh rise up and fly away to morning light without a breath to inhale air so thick it drips raining down upon you like a cold apocalypse they all have names as goofy as their faces sell your failure to us now we ride rise up and cry the reckoning is nigh rise up and fly away to morning light without a breath to inhale air so thick it drips raining down upon you like a cold apocalypse thunder the harbinger of madness we will bring raining down upon you raining down upon you, raining on you down upon you, raining on you hell a ganna bun dem man who betrayed us seized our land pays his debts with sand kings don’t care about where celebrities stand when it comes down to business you don’t see we need more than affected charity miracles only get your entourage away from me without a breath to inhale air so thick it drips raining down upon you like a cold apocalypse thunder the harbinger of madness we will bring raining down upon you in the badness while we sing raining down upon you raining down upon you, raining on you down upon you, raining on you hell a ganna burn dem who betrayed our sacred land

the sticks are on the table yield they buzz no more I gaze through dirty glass the feeling that I get right now is so wrong this is not me I’ve been so lonesome since my muse packed up and gone she does not live in substance she stays cool while I sink down tied up in my ego if I could live in this device then she would have nothing I need and maybe then I would think twice but I know how it feels she called me up and said that she was back in town and in a fit of pride I said that I could make it on my own who’s so smooth now if I could live in this device then she would have nothing I need and maybe then I would think twice but I know how it feels each time the blinds come ‘round I try to walk away you can not run from what is written blood on your page you know your blood shines brighter than green if I could live in this device then she would have nothing I need and maybe then I would think twice but I know how it feels

it surely came as a surprise when the man who sold the lies said he’d be late for dinner and there was nothing you could do he said he’d make your dreams come true and you believed him they said that morning at the store that they don’t serve your kind no more was this man joking the coroner asked you for your name he said “I’m not the one to blame, you’re as good as dead,” the sky has fallen the sea is brown they’ve turned the bunkers upside down darling, when the sky falls on you and then the minister of shame insisted he was not to blame and assumed the role of emperor some people bowed while others spat upon his pretentious hat who was this man kidding? if the sun don’t rise at dawn if there’s no grass upon the lawn is the situation hopeless? all that will be always was and it will stay that way because it has already happened the sky has fallen the sea is brown they’ve turned the bunkers upside down darling when the sky falls on you there’s something wrong inside my head or is it that this mule is dead or is it slowly dying? there’s something deep beneath the ground that’s waiting for the silent sound of revolution in the air all that was was meant to be and that is what my book told me I do not mean your doctrine all that will be always was and it will stay that way because it has already happened the sky has fallen the sea is brown they’ve turned the bunkers upside down and the rubble and the rain God makes you feel His pain my darling when the sky falls on you when the sky falls on you
