1. The First Impression
So it's gone away leaving you in a wreck,
No wise ideas this time, to escape this web
Dissolving within, nothing's wrong on the outside
Try and keep your cool, when you watch your memories collide
You were introduced to something new
A girl, a drug, or an attitude
Suddenly you see yourself being ruled
By the force you once never knew
It seemed so right, the only thing there could be
Would do anything for it, sad it didn't do the same for thee
Wanted to trip on it, but you were its ride
It had you by the heart, oooo its hypnotising eyes
You've been taken for a ride or two
Reached a state where there's nothing you can do
It's time to experience the rest that'll come
Definitely not the best to welcome
You were ambushed by the first impression
Cos you didn't wanna wait for the ones that would come
You were ambushed by the first impression
And now you're pointing yourself with a gun!
2. She's The Incubus
At first just a stimulus
Now a growing impulse
She's in my domain
feels like she wants to remain
Her enticing...for my collapsing
She's winning as she flows through me
The Shaman's arrived
His feather crown quivers in the wind
He says a word of advice to you
"Need to let her come on out!"
She's The Incubus
And what I feel is such
I'm one with her realm
The shine of her gem
I said, "The speed has just begun...
And I'm not yet done."
He said, " She'll kill you my son...
Gonna be too late till your done!"
The Indian wants me to bleed
Says it will wash away her deeds
I place the blade in the fire
Cause he said it's a real purifier
She's The Incubus
And what I feel is such
I'm one with her realm
The shine of her gem
Use the knife my son
Carved a Z on my arm
She's flowing out of me
Not glad to have...set her free!
The healer tears off his stained scarf
Melts platinum in the flame
Pours it on to my scar
But she'll, still... possess me!!
He's got her in chains
Says, "You won't see her again."
Told her I liked the onslaught
The things that she was about
As they fade into oblivion
What a scenario
Things repeated themselves...
But this time I was on the 'watching' end!!
She's The Incubus
But what I feel is such
I'm one with her realm
The shine of her gem
3. Ocean Man
Make the communion happen, you and the divine
The most blissful moment, lose your mind
The beauty of being lost within yourself
Enter the beyond
Into the vast harmony you will melt
It's your religion!!
Sense the Ocean Man
The energy called freedom
His silent eternal tides
They shape you into an Art of Life
Let go of those repressions
Fly to salvation
Walk into the aura of the sensual presence
Sense the Ocean Man
The energy called freedom
His silent eternal tides
They shape you into an Art of L
4. Soundcheck
5. High
There in the wilderness, nothing seems to be
Life's been such a mess, ever since I met me
Only darkness in my dreams, an unknown entity
A whisper is like a scream, a hoax a reality
Am I me, Am I myself, Am I I
Am I me, Am I myself, Yes I'm High
Get away from truth, it's a passion
Hate and Love in black sessions
Days of the past I must confront
I get dazed so fast...a force to Reckon
My head rattles to the beat, cos I feel the spin in me
Well it surely is a treat, you do it or you flee!!
Oh I ascend from the ground and I think I'll touch the sky
But this voice keeps coming around,
It says...I'll soon pass by!!!
Am I me, Am I myself, Am I I
Am I me, Am I myself, Yes I'm High
6. Small Town Aggression
7. 13 Disciples
Treason out to reason
with the self-righteousness of man
Twisting into phrases no one understands
A High-priest, endless deceit
for the countless confused minds
If the spell is countered
Wastelands they will find
Search and Seek the wise
No Distrust, No Sacrifice
13 in all, they'll...draw the light!
Fields of Hope
Draped sunshine
The end was on time!
8. AfterLife
Wipe the dust off my brow
Prepare myself
for what lies beyond
The Ancient One told me,
"Don't look back, and walk the way."
But how will I face the lives
That I put away...
My Knife is stained
By the curse I called upon
All those I called my friends
Are now long gone
I think, I'll lay myself to rest
here by these gates
And wait in submission
to the hands of hate
...the grinds of fate.
9. A Suspended State Of Being
Spaced out of society
Discrimination takes its toll
Sinister it shall always be
Tattering my soul
Who do they think they are
To tell me what to do
Pulling the plug on me
Then they blame my attitude
Accusation, Domination, Termination
Face what they are doing
Manipulation, Strangulation, Confrontation
A suspended state of being
To be or not to be
A question in my mind
They'll drain your sanity
They're many of a kind
Who do they think they are
To tell me what to do
Pulling the plug on me
Then they blame my attitude
Accusation, Domination, Termination
Face what they are doing
Manipulation, Strangulation, Confrontation
A suspended state of being
10. Freudian Sonica
Moments and Smiles
The empty room prepares for the play
Consuming Malice
I stay strapped to the wires
Injecting Belief
Mindless and thoughtless
You'd like me to be
Push the levels
And ensure I enact
My shuddering spine
Electric questions asked
till the answers I bleed
Repeat the process
Double-check for denials
Now everything is so pleasant
Right from my jaw-bone to my dying day
...my dying day
Falling of the Autumn Leaf
Doesn't seem to make much sense
To my foolish brain
...the one they turned insane
Nature has it's own way of subtle comparisons
Can you tell me...What is reality??
In reality?
11. Standing Tall
This is to all my friends
Whom I can't defend
But I got a helping hand to lend
If someone puts you down
Reach out for his crown
Just take him to the ground
Keeping it all within
Is a dreadful sin
Just show them where you've been
As far as I recall
Someone heard my call
And now I stand tall
This could be your fate
Just control your hate
And it's time to liberate
The path may seems too long
The meaning of this song
Is to right that's all wrong
12. Those Promising Lies
Everybody let's hold hands
And move on to the promised land
When we reach the Preacher's tent
Tell me all this was a stupid accident
One by one our minds are scanned
Lying, for us is strictly banned
Just then I deliver those promising lies
Soon I'm left to be idolized
Try to keep a lock on my tongue
Still keep lying like the ones I'm among
My medications, they're supposed to help
Yeah, they aid me through the lies I must tell
Then comes the 31st of December
Something I can remember
It's the day I make all those promises
That I break in the coming year
13. Waiting For Nothing
All I see in your eyes
Is this hatred for me
And I don't know just why
You can just let me be
No I never even tried to forget you
And you never even tried to forgive me
Oh don't let me go so far away
Taking me low though I wanna stay
Now I lie helplessly
Can't slip out of your grasp
Thought you were an Angel to me
Now I see Death behind your mask
No I never even tried to suppress you
And you never even tried to caress me
Oh don't take me away to the other side
With my life you only play,
then you say, "It's SUICIDE!"
Will you punish me
For the sins I've never done
Can't I be free for the time that's to come
Showing no mercy you will follow the myth
Unknowingly...A fire you have lit!
