SNOWBLOOD LYRICS

1. Untitled

Aching for some distant rest
I need to decolonise myself
Reaching for some distant rest
With a lightness of touch, or a hardness of heart

Hold on

Fading like last night's dream
Dying like the sense of separate self

Rising (Security on fire)
Rising from the past that must be shed
Rising (Why now is the question?)
Rising from the place that must be left
(Why now? It doesn't matter)
Don't be afraid

Tonight the cells will break open
Tonight we see who we really are

After all this narcissism, this is how it finally ends
After all this attachment, thus is how it finally ends
After all this acquisition, this is how it finally ends

A bleached skull: an empty begging bowl
We're going to vanish forever

2. Untitled

I wish I could breathe words and sing pictures
Before the night fades
But it's now winter,
My friend and I don't speak your language
Soon the thread will be severed and the cycle will end
My pen casts a shadow and darjebs the words I write
And the words pulse and dissolve
And melt into puddles on the pavement outside

These wounded sounds burn and are born of fire
And give voice to questions
Of who we are and where we belong
Are we now living in a world without elders?
We watch as the young eat each other
I don't have the answers, but who does?

And I thought to myself, in some Adriatic storm
Sit Meum Auxilium Christus

Dancing as the clouds spread
A thousand sleeping stories
A new transfiguration
Wildness overwhelms me
Can you see?

3. Untitled

You see it, like you feel it
Softly showing, removing yourself
You see it, like you feel it
Softly showing, removing yourself

I have to do this, forget myself
I have to do this, the grains of life
I have to do this, forget yourself
I have to do this, the grains of life

Show it, like you feel it
Forget ourselves
The grains of life
Try to show it, like you feel it
Forget ourselves
The grains of life

Babylon on fire
No one to protect, what we fought for
As Babylon burns, a smouldering wreck, nature forgotten

It burns

4. Untitled

The narratives of our lives are being written for us
New gilded cages are being forged for us
New cathedrals of capital are being built for us

Between just wasting the passing of time together
Or starting to unmask those powers forever

Reject the serpent and all of his lies
Accept all the horror, pain and joy of life

Enclosure
Enduring
This corprorate imperium is genocide:
Time to let go
Hold
Let go
Hold

I could never love this lovelessness
I could never love this endless Qana in our hearts

In time, all pain is nothing
But you try to find peace with you money,
I don't want you money

I don't want your money,
But you try to bring me down with your money,
In time it all comes to nothing
