Chosen Sons
05:02
|

All paths lead to the same place
Ignorance
With the new suit comes a new face
Of innocence
You are such a bright light
Cruising for moths
It’s in your nature to prey on the lost
Tradition rots you from inside
Cheap trinkets in your eyes
Everyone in costumes waiting for the call
The call that never comes
The task that’s never done
Beneath a tunnel vision sky
The perfect place for hope to hide
You are the chosen son
On this bastard day
The virgins laugh
The fools obey
You don the black mask
Strut in the parade
With the chosen sons
On this bastard day
We were born on the run
Our penance is never done
Fools waiting for the sun
We bow down to the beast, the lord, the one

Crumbs
03:51
|

Fairweather friends, the Sun is shining bright
Gather ‘round for the Fall
Today we celebrate for this will be the day
We speak the truth and burn it all
(Yeah)
Boys cry to Mother
When the hologram shows feist
Mother appears in the form they choose
To feed them crumbs…feed them crumbs
The mistress lives in secrecy
The script she reads is memory
Her shadow is trained to heel
The actors in her dream will kneel
What you call reality…
It’s only flattery
You’ll never take her home
You’ll never get her alone
No, you’ll never get her alone
You will just feed on crumbs…feed on crumbs

Dark Matter
04:47

Baby fortune wish away
Predator and hopeful prey
I am just a clown today
I am just a beast at play
Weather’s warm and so inviting
Lady luck beside me smiling (x2)
Here before the Red Dawn
Now tell me who the joke’s on (x2)
White noise energy
Dark matter deafening
Shroud this all in secrecy
As a simple courtesy
Death is very close today
Close enough to choke its prey
Headless angel
Father dear
Turn away and I appear
Let me make it crystal clear (x2)
You are a hound on the trail
Sliced into pieces
All of them for sale
How long can you run your mouth?
The whole world is going south
White noise energy
Dark matter deafening
Shroud this all in secrecy
As a simple courtesy
White noise energy
Dark matter deafening
Down we go spiraling
Down we go spiraling (out)
Death is very close today
Close enough to choke its prey
Yeah, so close today
It’s really very close today

Expect No Sympathy
04:50
|
|||
When you open the floodgates
Anything may come
I AM HERE (x2)
You build your paper walls
Cry when your deity falls
Cry foul
Cry foul
Oh, it’s a free-for-all
You pray for the winds of change
The winds of change do as they please
Expect no sympathy
Expect no sympathy now that I’m free
I’m free
Saved

Crowd around the altar
The eye of the storm
Your Mother, Your Father
Your being unborn
I’m not with the program
I see no picket fence
No absolution
No future tense
Crowd around the nexus
Fire at will!
The enemy is dreaming
Shoot to kill!
When the mind cracks open
Sarvam is anew
Naturally abandon
The myth of ‘You’
(Horizons, Horizons, Horizons)
LAUGHING AT TIME AND SPACE
TEARING OFF THE HUMAN FACE
Ripples in the living dream
New horizons beyond the thought stream
Horizons (repeat)

Benediction
05:11
|
|||
We drown in ecstasy
We have no concern
Once we were dreaming
A dream we have unlearned
We ran to the hiding place
To find all laid bare
No engine for illusion
Feverish air
Wanderers of the deep
Taking great care
Tending to the light
Taking great care
All happening as it should
All blooming as it should
This one is both here and there
Pickpocket in the market square
This one is both here and there
This one is everywhere

Piercing the Veil
07:13
|
|||
I have been lifting the veil
Down on your knees now
Out in the backyard
Onto the next world
Send us a postcard
Mission has failed now
We can all go home
Waiting is over
Hang up the phone
I have been lifting the veil
Blurry-eyed children
Wandering softly
Into the waking dream of the master
All will remain
Just as it is now
Hands off the wheel
Let the sky come down
In the realm of eternal mirage
Afraid
Inside the tiger’s mouth
Limp
Before the benediction
Absent
Free of division
Awake
A rare one’s colors will run
In darkness I feel the sun (x2)
All will remain
Just as it is now
Hands off the wheel
Let the sky come down (x2)
I think I hear footsteps
(I have been piercing the veil)
No code to live by. What’s next?
(I have been piercing the veil)
And sure, I wish them all success
(I have been piercing the veil)
Though their identity is suspect
(I have been piercing the veil)

Fallout
05:26
|

Bareback on the war pig
Think I’ll ride this one out
Until the truth comes out
Until your luck runs out
Running but it comes from all sides
It waits in the places you hide
Shedding your skin to find rot
You live but you are not
Hyena smiling
Hunting calm
Wandering, Roaming
Coming on
It’s coming on
It’s kicking in
It’s turning on
It’s rushing through
It’s telling me just what to do
Open season
All out
Burning the house down
Move out
Fallout

Pathless Land

Freedom (repeats throughout song)
From being right
From the need to fight
From manic desire
From climbing ever higher
From the mantis bride
From the human ride
From tribal law
From the fatal flaw
From temples of mind
From needing a sign
From the seekers of truth
From the altar of youth
From Buddha and Christ
From Allah and sage advice
From You and I
We and Them
Live and Die
Come on, you lifeless prey
Come on, tear the veil away
Oh, die to it all
Die to it all, I say
Fear cowers before you
There’s no need to hide
Love is always with you
There is no divide

Bridge Burner
10:20
|
|||
All my creatures bear the mark
All my babes left in the dark
All my bodies bleeding out
All my voices screaming out
(Help!)
All my paths have led to this
Field endless and tenantless
All my truths are forgeries
All my knowns now mysteries
Light me up
I’ll be the Bridge Burner
No ties
I’m a fast learner
I’ll be the hyena
Unwelcome drifter
I’ll be the Shapeshifter
I’ll be the veil lifter
I’ll be the Bridge Burner
Trishula of Shiva
Mother’s never coming home
Oh babe, you’re never alone
You don’t need her anymore
Let her wash up ragged on another dreamer’s shore
I can’t see you from here (x4)
At the edge of it all (repeat)
