It's totally psychological Motherfucker
It's totally psychological Motherfucker Hate and war and blind despair Tell me you love me Tears and screams and unholy fears Tell me you love me I want you to look at me Tell me you love me Tell me you love me We're not indestructible We're not indestructible Pride and lust and selfish greed Bow your head and pray raw meat Grind my soul on your city street Black spine snake crack Fetal facial moral plaque Scientific mutilation diplomatic falsehood nation Movie world horror king star of saviour play on pain Instrumental souls insane I want you to look at me Tell me you love me We're not indestructible We're not indestructible 02. Corpus Christi
Born into a hazy crossfire
The end result of innocence and ignorance Flesh and blood cure for emotional strife Vision obscured by a soft skin curtain Torn and ripped youth in a glass case Convinced of divinity afflictions for attributes Living out of body life crippled cub for crippled life Vision obscured by a soft skin curtain Window to reality shrouded soft skin curtain Torn and ripped battle lost Casualties ignored, ignorance victorious Minority whored behind cold stone front There lived one who cried He feels like a man, he feels like a child He feels like a doll, he feels like a living Dead thing, empty and dry lying soaked in the rain Drowning in lonely tears, dreaming of living Searching, exploring Lost in a bottomless whole Expecting, directing Disappointed in the world as a whole Healing, feeling Learning to accept those wholes Living, loving Living life as a whole To live and fly Breathe the clouds Sleep with the stars Know answers why Soft skin curtain Window to reality No longer clouded Soft skin curtain Torn and ripped Away 03. Turn Of The Screw
Hey I saw your mouth on, another's face
It told me sweet secrets and reminded me of the taste Of your skin upon my lips But it's been so long I reach out but you're not there I try to hang on but you're not there It's just a scarecrow of emotion Heartfelt emotion splattered on my floor A blackened bloodied pool to drown in I'm tortured by the lack of you A screaming silence I'm trying to fight Living life alone in a tortured midnight It's just another turn of the screw Too painfully true As I become filled with you My face and skull burst and bloomed We became the nighttime sky Flooded with millions of years of starlight As I am without your touch My heart falls to my feet And drags over the ground With every step I take It gathers every bit of dirt Every grain of sand Every and that can becomes full of the flesh of my soul This is nothing compared to the absence of you God kissed me on my mouth And blessed me with the tempest of you It's just another turn of the screw Washing ashore and withdrawing again I'm the sea I'm a starving cripped dog Waiting to draw my last hot dusty breath Without you It's just another turn of the crew 04. Golden
Emptiness became my house
Black cracked sight my line to life I dreamt of angels and lightning flash And cool, cool rain to wash my mind Innocence seemed so far from home I'd wish to rest in a bed of flowers But hot black sands are where I'd lay Bathed in the black of night Eyes awash in a sea of starlight The cold quick winds of God Blow through my soul The fable of time no longer blinds Without body judged only by mind I long for the life a child might know Then Golden touch my heart becomes whole Bathed in the black of night Eyes awash in a sea of starlight The cold quick winds of God Blow through my soul I long for the life a child might know Then Golden touch my heart becomes whole Now Golden light shows me angels Golden warmth comforts my flesh Golden words ease my mind I'm complete with Golden time My heart hungers for life Flesh blood and fire Soul contact soul thunderstorm choir Golden soul bright Charged with the light Set my soul afire With a new strength To forge a new road A road so much higher Soul contact soul thunderstorm choir Golden soul bright Charged with the light My heart hungers for life Flesh blood and fire Now I touch Golden The black world blooms Brilliant colors drown my body And life becomes real Every drop of rain known Never let it end I stand naked without walls Never let it end My soul touched by another Never let it end And when ants so feast upon flesh And the world's turned me inside out I need a place to lay. my head Peace seems so far away I dream of Golden times And reach for Golden, Golden fire Bathed in the black of night Eyes awash in a sea of starlight The cold quick winds of God Blowing through my soul The fable of time no longer blinds Without body, judged only by mind I'd wish to rest in a bed of flowers But hot black sands are where I'd lay With black cracked sight my line to life I dreamt of angels and lightning flash And cool, cool rain to wash my mind Innocence seemed so far from home I long for the life a child might know Then Golden touch my heart becomes whole My heart becomes whole Golden 05. Anne Marie
I've got a hot white burning inside
That time only feeds my minds Only need I add you fuel To my fire my flames burn higher and higher Shaking, Shaking, Shaking I feel my body aching Into the whole down deep in my soul I shrink into my faking The day grows nearer And passes like an angry cat That sat I feel upon my back And its claws run through my tears See is what I feel again See is what I feel again I've the taste of dry sand in my mouth The grit can feel my teeth run white But will I ever find the future? If I can't forget about the past? Lies away I feed your hungry head You need it, you slimy black space Leave alone the things I say Lies away I cease to explain no more Your hungry head pleads for more My body needs the touch of a hand To soothe my shaking I feel my body aching Can you soothe my need? It's what I want, it's what I want? Please turn around Oh but tomorrow is mine 06. Birdsong (Earth)
Bright sky blue
Who now fades too Frames birds on the wing Whose sweet songs too sad so sing Now only an echo in my mind As sky fades to black I wonder if he'll ever be back And if we had ears to hear Would we act out of fear Or could we realize We often grew up believing lies Deafened I couldn't hear that birdsong Singing truth simple and strong My eyes blinded By selfish complications Bright sky blue Will my children's children ever know you Those birds on the wing Have a song they need to sing To their children and my children too It's a song of truth Unpolluted by time or tongue It's a song that tells Of all being one If you can get past your fear It's a song you should hear Deafened I could not hear that birdsong Singing truth simple and strong Blind I could not see that birdsong Singing truth simple and strong 07. Ordinary Madness
Lost in a cold dark garden alone
My only company Night blooming dementia Bittersweet blossom bloom of madness The sharp knife in the mind Kills the devil in the soul The sun's light blotted out Skies filled with savage black birds Devouring creation, devouring my heart My soul, a multitude starving Like the dawn of creation We awaken to a new day A day of confronting reality That dark satin veil, pierced Cold steel poles to invade my flesh Felicity burned by the red hot Fiery coals of desire The white hot sun burning Like the eye of God watching The sharp knife in the mind Kills the devil in the soul The dark satin veil pierced That cold steel finger in my brain Just may bring peace On sunshine days When we cast no shadow And the heat's baked our mind Into lonely submission Then is when we realize Something as thin as the web of a spider Holds us back from Ordinary madness 08. Sinking
Sinking in a sea of emptiness, alone
A solitude, an isolation, to living men unknown Shadows of memories dance across my mind Just beyond reach with the passing of time Searching with blinded eyes For a truth that once was Feeling so alive My mortality I deny Shadows of memories Dance across my mind Now totally lost to the ghost of remembrance No tears can I cry to quench the thirst of suffering Looking on life as the altar with a saddened familiarity Only now in madness can I see the simplicity Silence of loneliness roars in my ears My own heartbeat rhythm I've grown to fear Seven times eternity I'm sentenced this living death Grief and agony multiply with each and every breath Blackness of space, vast space of time To richness of life, my heart now blind Memories of the past now torture my mind Suffering for eternity no rest in dying On stone ears fall my cries Shadows of memories dance across my mind Now barely able to bring me to another time A time taken as something owed Looking back I wish I'd chosen a different road Now totally lost to the ghost of remembrance No tears can I cry to quench the thirst of suffering Each pain filled moment alone another black Cross to bear Silence the loneliness roars in my ears On stone ears fall my cries 09. Schizophrenic
Lost in a blur of psychostatic
Electro info windstorm manic A philosophy a way of life Sold in a smile evangeliphile Soothing pulsation mindnumbing relief Pablum for masses in a cathode ray bile Neon holographic wonderland lies Reflected in millions of unsuspecting eyes Synapse overload experience of the future Electrical misfire distort minds eye feature Radio wave cataclysm perception molester Thought breaking tele-message messiah of the future We've become message receiver mutated creature Corporate faker and multi-national whores Profess social rules and cultural mores The foulness of spoiled flesh and viscidity Reflect neo-Marshall cornucopial dream idiocy Drowning in a sea of psychostimulation Damned to thing thought death in a supersonic communication nation A cunning and wicked disease Spread by a virus of ignorant pleas From Father McLuhan The future is born Is there any shelter From this schizophrenic storm Transistorized thought patterns Television tube sight Minds become captive Bound by radio wave might Message receiver mutated creature 10. Barracuda
So this ain't the end
I saw you again today I had to turn my heart away You smiled like the Sun Kisses for everyone And tales it never fails! You're lying so slow in the weeds I bet you gonna ambush me You'd have me down on my knees Barracuda Back over time we were all trying for free You met the porpoise and me No right or wrong you're selling a song a name Whisper game And if the real thing don't do the trick You better make up something quick You gonna bum to the wick Barracuda Sell me sell you the porpoise said Dive down deep now save my head You, I think that you got the blues too All that night and all the next Swam without looking back Made for the western pools, silly fools 11. Sour Born
In between worlds of white and black
Lies a world of gray Beneath the sour born showering down It's time on me A thin sharp slice of dime Pushed gently into my heart Time after time after time after time after time Standing vacant behind myself Looking through empty eyes Icy cold black fullness in my bowels Aching for release Splash upon the pavement For the consumption of humanity My soul my humility Your only bread Something inborn in me that will not leave Standing vacant behind myself Looking through empty eyes And he was a betrayer he was a betrayer And he was a fool he was a fool And she was a bitch she was a bitch And he came to stand for you I lay with you I crept inside you I became night with you We were empty we became full We were empty we became full Driving wheel big black diamond back 69 wire burns Cosmo shoulder Red hot wire pierce smooth white bone-holder Smoky cold shadows of those not there Cast upon cold stone wall Broken down by devil stare Driven beyond threshold of mortal dare Seminal fluid life like man Driving the life of a dead white man Driving, driving, driving Teased to sublime defeat Feast upon horrid rancid spirit meat You dirt drive, septic seven thigh Shallow, yellow, stabbed nine high Sickly, evil, pathetically Cracked black blind Eye |
