SANZU LYRICS

1. Old Orchard Floor

This is the product of a perfectly structured birth
We are the fruit of the conditioning
We must preserve all that inspires love
For any inflected defect is just more work for you

Was this there for a reason?

For I missed the harvest, I'm a fool, you see?
Yeah, I'm the fool

It has to be my fault
Doesn't that make sense to you now?
Not a thing will ever be questioned
There's no direction

Just poorly made mistakes, blindly applauded
Soulfully adored in the garden of art
The tomb of the triers
The grave of defiers

Oh, old orchard floor, I deem you my home

Now, I think to myself
What if I went on with the other ones and I left for good?
What if I never strayed to wade in the waste of all those like me
Who thought it would be fun to be free?

I've had enough of this me
I've had enough of this being

The poorly made mistakes
The soulfully adored
The blindly applauded
The old orchard floor

Now I must leave the rot
I must leave the home
And build a new world on my own

2. Phenomena

All the plants are handing our lives to death
A slow, purposeful goal to deprive us of our dear breath
The last true punishment for all our foolish indiscretions
Inverted oxygen peels through the land
As heavy mist of the debt, rich with our end
Returning to me

Taking back the dirt that was always theirs
You can't ignore this
Taking back the dirt that was always theirs

Slowly spread
Slowly wed to the earth forever, in rapture
Breathe in slow my child
Gratify the last air

We should not sin
In our last chance to be reclaimed by your grace, pure life
Breathe in slow
We are now headed toward our last test

Shiki soku ze kuu
Our emptiness is a full cup
Shiki soku ze kuu
And we are engulfed
Shiki soku ze kuu
Left void by the life of Earth
Shiki soku ze kuu
Phenomena is everything

A hole in our hearts
Is enough strength to perish with pride
Can you forgive us all?
Will you grant us mercy?

Void

Shiki soku ze kuu
The phenomena

3. Ubiety

The way she inundates
Moving akin to the ocean
She's up above the factory cities
It's so apparent to me that it's heaven up there

So far away.

So high up she can't even see the complexities anymore and
I know she probably shouldn't anyway
What else can be done
Just admire admire all the motion because

What I should be
I will always be

With my hands buried in the dirt
The inactive devices are finally quelled
It's all for us all
For some time my mouth has been shoveled full of kindness
It tastes like coal and sick soil
But a smoke stack replaces my head
And you know that brings me to my knees

Now I am more myself than I could ever be
And again my life begins

Eternally I will cough and spit an incandescent smog
Dripping with crude oil
My ears are waterproofed to survive the consistent floods
It sounds so bad but it's actually humbling
To be in this world of respectable oceans
And industry alone with all of my selves

I look up through the smoke
And see that glimmer of the sun
On the lips of the wave

Always recalling the exact motions
Just briefly before drowning bliss
This is part of the payment
But the heart, I swear
Is a wise investor
And here I stay until tides cease, until the tides dissolve me
Us

4. Tailor

That tag behind your gentle neck
So valuable, isn't it?
Does it really validate you?
Wrap the child in garments to prove

Sift through the pieces that don't catch your eye
Every stitch stitched by exhausted hands
Exhausted hands, tired eyes

One hundred hands, ninety-nine eyes
Touched your new pleasure
Wear your new treasure
Wear it for just minutes on end
The phase is done now throw it away, hide it away

Find the perfect piece
Drive the cost down
Don't let them rob you here
You know your worth, right?

Find the perfect rag
Wrap your flesh tight
You are the face of our tailored generation

Buy all

I'm so sorry that you paid more
One structure fell
A thousand children on the floor

So much was lost in the tragedy
Red's on the cloth, no use to anybody
Don't sweat, we will make it up to you
The shed of sweat is willing to prove

Don't you worry, we will make it up to you

Back to work tomorrow
Work harder tomorrow

Take one, get one free
How good does that feel?
How good does that feel
Now that is freedom, made for you

5. Those Who Sleep in the East

Falling behind the city
Watch the sun kiss the clouds red
One slice of foreign light seeps in
Caught by the boy sleeping

Eyelids fall and flicker
As he fights the urge to end the day
His fears rise when the lights die
He know what awaits him in the east

The fight is over now
The sleep is finally locked in
He's torn from his body rough
Hard and fast the spirit drops down

He plummets through the earth
Through the black, the grey, the red, and the white
He sees so many millions here
So many others on the same ride

They cascade towards the tunnels light
Hands push forward, and all eyes shut tight
Consumed by the terrible weight
Consumed by the terrible fright

Born in the east

Cold morning dew on the glass of his eye
Sweet smell of liquor and fruits alike

Another day in the house, the tomb, he said
The staggered hall leads a path to the ritual
He cried out and pleaded but his body would not stop
He rose from the bed and waded down the gas-lit hall

Realise, deny, fight and defy
Every moment has happened before

Bottles lining the floor
Throws the light around the room
Colours dance and paint the pain
Against the brick with green and blue

A woman sits and cries
At the site of this man
So eager to start the night
So eager for that taste of life

You do this every day
You wake to consume
He replied "I must go
When I sleep, I travel through the world

I am young again
There's a boy somewhere who lends
Someone who lends me their eyes
Someone who lends me their life"

7. Heavy over the Home

So let's dig in, yes, now.
Please release me. God, now.
When you hide yourself you cannot expect to grow.
It's not a reaction, it's a life of ignorance I'm chasing
We burn the book and forget the story. A godless belief in oneself.
And I'm the strength for every child that's disintegrated your beliefs.
And yes I'm the strength for every victim that's enduring your dreams
Thanks for the lessons. Thanks for life. Thanks for the love. Thanks for nothing.
Darkness and sexuality are dancing. Blinding the goodwill of human nature.
Grit those teeth and just speak up. Speak up
Reject the truth because it's a facade
"You'll never be remembered with a face like that anyway"
Leave us and find your own pit.
"Break your neck" they said.
Mental birth, outside of my head, where am I? God?
Where am I Christ?
The rain falls. Heavy over the home
The unrest left quiet, silenced.
Thank you for finding me. Thank you for real joy.
And thanks for all the love, thanks for everything.
Smiling with her. I'm in love with luck.
I'm in love with luck?
I soar towards the chance, I'm here for good. She just wants me.
Good God, it's true! Yes, there is hope! There is hope!
Safety and goodnight.
Farewell to the hate, farewell to the spite.
Oh, the sunlight is so warm, I'm almost past the door.
I've let the cold in.
No, no, no, no! What is this?
There's nothing here. Abyssal pit.
It was all a lie. I'm still unfortunately empty.

8. The Chill

The movement of the story is true
Every moment is another feast
Year after year is stored
And kept within these walls of skin

The electrical storm of memories
Void of all coherency
Just blind assaults within the thick and timeless fog

Though this doesn't even matter
For the day is beautiful
Frequencies radiate from the occupants of the city
And God bless

All distractions are flooding into me
Every sense is an indulgence incarnate
No, nothing will ever break apart this state
No, nothing could ever break the souls I'm tapped into

Then it changed
I felt the relentlessness
It's all over now
The painlessness

Overcome by the cold my grip is pried
I can feel it end, the painlessness

One innocent phrase flies from a distant mouth
A simple meaningless construct
A sentence, so second rate
It interacted with my mind
Like all other notions
But my clarity allowed for a fresh and awesome alien motion

Inner lightning ignited a violent fire frenzy
I parted this ocean compiled of memories
And they fell into a solid and artful sequence
Now there lies in front of me, a coloured line

In a single second
I felt the weight of all that ever was laying before me

I let the cold in, it was me
I let the cold in, the painlessness has ended

9. Loss

The fog is thick with the dragon's ash
Thrown down by the ghost way beyond the clouds
Heavens lie through their trumpets, with teeth
Their facade won't die, solidified

In bloody stars, in chasms
The forest's eyes open up once more
And thunderous tears impaling the earth

And filling our cups
The overflow, saturating hearts to the breaking point
In the books embrace

Lifting the soul
An offer to God

The blackened axe
In this blackened house of mine
Distorted systems are channeling love

A complete disgrace
A cave silence engulfs
Abyssal contemplation
Deep silence, the hole
The chasm

10. Colorblind

[Instrumental]
