1. One Hand Killing
Now put your money
where your mouth is,
You have the method
But will you move mountains?
This has become quite a vehicle
With no room for aggrandized egos,
You have adapted to the role
Your portrayal betrays your soul,
Wherever you may go,
May your heart remain your home
I can see the sequence,
Trans-human influence,
I maintain observance,
Focused on radiance,
You remain in silence,
Language omniscient,
I renounce the violence,
Devoid of intelligence.
They back you into the corner,
Provoked your will,
From the brink,
Your return to them stronger,
Hear it when you’re willing,
The sound of one hand killing.
You are being hunted,
Subject to summoning a landslide,
You have adultered the altar,
Of a faceless,
Serpentine-coil of a riddle,
As you can imagine,
They are pulling every last stop,
You will not falter,
You offer to the people consistently,
caught in the middle.
I’ll send for you,
When the coast is clear,
(How long will I be waiting, waiting),
Climbing up to the top,
Gonna meet you there,
(How long will I be waiting, waiting),
For you!!
Up on your feet,
Darling dear,
May the gods guide you right back here,
Without you here,
It’s not home,
May you find what you’re looking for,
An inner peace,
The infinite,
May it burn through your deepest fear,
Without punch,
There’s no show,
May you hold them accountable.
2. Sick
Are you sick of being tired?
Are you tired of being sick?
How did I get to where it pours,
Never rains,
Highway-lost,
Out of range,
My time,
A memory.
As you grip for the future,
It slips out of your hands,
The bitter-sweet truth,
You know too well,
You’ve got to take it,
You’ve got to face it where you stand.
Get out of your own damn way,
You must be out of your mind.
Don’t ask if refusal offends.
I can get a handle on it.
Time is a memory,
Time is ticking,
Time is a memory,
Time is illusion.
3. Invincible
Invincible!
Invincible!
This isn’t happening,
(This isn’t happening),
This isn’t happening,
(This isn’t happening),
Is this just cause and effect?
(I’m invincible),
Cause and effect,
(I’m invincible),
Cause and effect.
Did not expect to lose,
I never thought I’d find wisdom
in being a fool
All the highs,
And the lows,
Watch me fly,
Watch me fall,
Pull me down,
Pick me up,
Will it ever be enough?
All the highs,
And the lows,
Watch me fly,
Watch me fall,
Pull me down,
Pick me up,
I convinced myself that I was
invincible.
My day of reckoning,
(This isn’t happening),
It’s my day of reckoning,
(This isn’t happening),
It gives me pause to reflect,
(I’m invincible),
A cause to reflect,
(I’m invincible),
Cause to reflect.
I fought a mountain,
And believed that I had won,
When I reached the top,
There was another mountain,
Blocking the sun.
4. Oxygen
Wade into the water,
Step into the beauty of the sun,
Remember why you came here,
To realize the truth,
Forever home.
And they will haunt you,
'Til the morning breaks,
You breached their trust,
And sealed your fate,
Ride the wave.
You best make your move,
And get while the getting is good,
When all have abandoned hope,
I still search for you,
Lost in the groove,
Your heart remains unmoved,
When I could abandon hope,
I still search for you,
I still look for you.
Listen to the water,
Merge into communion with the source.
Feel you drop,
I pick you up,
I could almost swear I felt us float,
To the top,
From rock bottom,
And there,
We melt like summer.
You are my oxygen.
5. Collateral
The deal is fixed,
The cards are cut,
All of the heathens,
They are drinking from the cup,
This crooked game,
Is not of luck,
Digging down,
To reach the top,
Followers all scream for more until
they're drunk,
And all god's children
could give a fuck.
The way of the beast is
tragedy by design,
Collateral waste,
Will you drown
in the noise you have made?
Surrounded by darkness,
You won't hide from the lights,
There is no escape,
From the ones
who would profit from shame,
Will you drown
in the noise you have made?
The wings are clipped,
The bird half-cut
Gone is the one who made her
home among the stars,
A fall from grave,
Becomes her art,
Digging down,
No looking up,
When the riches and rewards
are not enough,
And all god's children
could give a fuck.
They'll chew you up,
And spit you out,
The promise of demise
is a religion,
The audience makes no sound,
They can't take their eyes
off a collision.
When enough is enough,
Not enough is too much.
6. Post Mortem
Nobody's here for too long,
It's just a breath,
It's just a song,
And in the end,
No right from wrong,
You'll find it didn't matter.
You'll learn,
Every time you fall,
Better to give everything,
Or nothing at all,
What the hell you waiting for,
Better to give everything,
Or nothing at all,
(nothing at all).
If you live in the flow,
Life happens for us,
When we let it go,
If you fear the end will come,
Life happens to us,
When we're holding on.
Life is for the living,
You must carry on.
Disfrutar tu vida,
O temer tu muerte
We all arrive here alone,
We all depart here alone,
But we don't wanna go,
We all arrive here alone,
We will depart here alone,
We ought to let it go.
Energy never dies,
It moves on to its next state,
If energy never dies,
We exist into post mortem.
7. Point Of You
The sun,
The moon,
And the start,
They could never be bigger,
Any bigger than you are.
It's all your point of view,
Of you,
You,
It all comes back to you,
You,
It all comes back.
When will you see the thing sin you,
That you find in me?
It all comes back to you,
When will you see the things in you,
That you find in me?
One day you'll see.
An infinite cosmic dance,
An atomic romance,
A mystery hidden from view,
A universe inside you,
Within your fleeting glance,
A vast and stunning expanse,
Reveals the unspoken truth,
The all-in-all inside you.
One day you'll see the sun.
8. Monsoon
It's revealed,
You're exposed,
The inconspicuous,
Now made known,
No more silence,
Nowhere to run,
Now you must confront your demons alone,
It unfolds,
In defence,
In damage control,
In denial of transgression,
You become target of vindication.
We got the picture,
Caught your act by the throat,
We couldn't leave enough alone,
You couldn't keep it undisclosed,
You were set for the fall,
You couldn't yield,
Until it all burned to the ground.
All your deals done behind doors,
Secrets whispered,
Incognito,
Like great oaks rising from acorns,
Truth in the light,
Becomes the perfect storm,
Settled score,
Justice swift,
And the rift is closed,
You're delivered a final blow,
Now you are down on your knees,
You're dethroned.
My destiny,
Is not the seamless integration
into the void.
9. Adios
Adiós,
This is goodbye,
This is the last time.
You're out of control,
You've been warming your hands,
On the bridges you're burning,
All out on your own,
Your contempt
For the people who feed you,
It's unreasonable.
But it's never been my style,
To beat on a petulant child.
This is my last song for you,
This is my last song to you,
Part-time egotist,
Full-time narcissist,
Centre of the universe,
This is my last song for you,
Adiós.
Two steps forward,
One backward,
One step forward,
Two backward.
So long,
We are done,
You shoot your mouth just like a gun,
So long,
We are done,
No going back,
The damage done.
This is goodbye.
10. Dig For Bones
I lie in wait for you,
My enemy eclipsed,
The first and final warning,
A fatal catalyst,
Fire wrapped in clouds,
You've come to send me home,
A falsified ascension,
Thine kingdom come.
The fight,
It blazes on,
Your cause is not my own,
I am not the only one.
You've crossed the Rubicon,
And now you're a dog of war,
And no man's friend,
You've crossed the Rubicon now.
Wait,
(I recall when we were like each other),
What have you…
(I remember it all),
… done?
(you were closer to me than a brother),
What have you become?
You shed their blood,
In sanctimonious obligation,
Without empathy or thought,
And you held your soul to ransom,
The people made senseless,
Under hail of friendly-fire,
Now they wander the wilderness,
Extinguished by their own decline.
You'll never feel,
You'll never be innocent again.
Dig for bones,
Lick your wounds,
Your reward,
The leash remains,
Heal,
And come when you're called,
From our command,
Into your grave.
The hypocrisy of your liberty,
Your security for us all,
Insanity please its own defence,
To deter the advance of the law,
You and I,
We're no different,
We originate from the sword,
I didn't want to single you out,
But I'm relentless.
