Exile

I'm in Exile
I have wandered a thousand miles
I am the one who has seen too much
Thoughts turn with ponderous pace to a land distant in time
Visions of faraway places are my comfort crutch
Exile is the name they give to me
Change is an inevitability
The temporal shield entropy eroded
Now so thin
Every grain is slipping away
No sooner than I knew
That this place so familiar
Receding out of view
As I sought survival in lands anew
I have wandered a thousand miles
I am the one who has seen too much
Thoughts turn with ponderous pace to a land distant in time
Visions of faraway places are my comfort crutch
Exile is the name they give to me
Change is an inevitability
You can ride the wave or drown in it, they say
But I'll be back one day
Banished because of their inflexible ways
The endless horizon is now where I roam
So solitary and sombre
Sentiments of confusion I harbour
About this desperate amarantine place you might call my home
I stand terrified on the cracks of a crumbling world

Hell's a Place
05:17
|
|
||
Well I've been drinking for a month
And I've been heading down south for so long now
I've been thinking
Living the life up every day
Things started changing when she went away
And I've been thinking
And you said you remembered my name
Oh yeah, I'll always remember your name
Hey!
I told you so...
Hell's a place in Mexico
Oh don't you know
Hell's a place in Mexico
Feeling insane so I took the shots
At the end of the day I was left on the rocks
They were smiling
These days and nights in hell take their toll
But I got out alive without selling my soul
And I've been thinking!
And I'll always remember your name
Oh yeah I'll never forget your name!
Hey!
I told you so...
Hell's a place in Mexico
Oh don't you know
Hell's a place in Mexico

False Dawn
03:40
|
|
||
We look into the mirror,
Shows us what we want to see
The architects are self deceived
Mocking the principles which they profess to believe
Always taking more than you give
False dawns you instill
So self assured
The product of what is past
Words fail us
Nothing to say
Better think fast
Evolving,
Choice Determined
Writing our own paths through history
Enthralling
Undiscovered possibilities of existence
Ten years ago, a different world
And one that I seem to miss
I look up to the road ahead
And see the unknowns and the promise
Engrams are unified
What I experience now, years before
Feel the question of why am I?
Fly like a photon through the universe

The End of Everything
05:10
|
|
||
Do you think that we’re just software?
Is it all that we are?
Or could we be self aware?
When our insight got us this far
The thin veneer of this society
Ruled by private tyrannies
A lie for primitive hypocrisy!
The End of Everything
Does it tend to any meaning?
Axioms, through us, sing
What road will I take?
What will my choices bring?
Are we slaves to pre-history?
Would you question the hegemony?
Technology from evolution
A future derived from competing impressions
The architects of power congregate
They fail so they can alienate
A stasis is what they perpetuate!

Cauterise
04:02
|
|
||
Felons in judges clothes
Violating justice
Their law they impose
Crimes perpetrated in their name
By imbecile thugs
And death is their game
Why should you or I obey?
Upon them,
We shall visit
Judgement Day!
Predestined mediocrity
Self-fulfilling prophecy
Dreams foretell one of the tangents
Sanity absent
No way out
Every inhalation is acrid
Burning like battery acid
Salivating with spite
Future Denied
Nowhere left to run
I look down on the bipeds and know I'm done
Human harvesting indoctrinated ghouls
I'll wait to see the end of these smug, pursed lip fools
I refuse your slavery
I defy your dreams
I have no gods or masters
I spit in your fate

Neurotic Insomniac
07:02
|
|
||
I fall through endless vistas
And hear the melody of distant worlds
Her eyes are like crystal water
Entranced I see forms that were already there
When I fall I feel connected
When I fall I'm feeling good
Locked into a network of different voices
Post-physical immaterial choices
They evaporate if you dream too long
Keep seeking and you'll find another song
Yeah!
When I fall I feel connected
When I fall I'm feeling good
I always leave something behind
I will return to find what was lost in time
I no longer see the pyramid of desperation
I'm waking up, walking on cold hard stones
With locomotive aspirations
Yeah keep it groovy!
I'm in no haste
So let me groove in my mellow place

Roadwave
05:25
|
|
||
I ride the roadwave
Towards endless horizon
And rising sun
It has begun
Spread your wings
Everything is going be alright!
On the darkside of the cosmos
Our defiance burns
And schemer snakes incinerate
Spread your wings
Fly above the world
Everything's going to be alright
Our flame cannot be extinguished
The wheel turns
And manipulator snakes perish
Driving me around in circles
Petrified, paralysed
By Sisyphean hurdles
No more!
But there is another side
Show me the way out
Conquer the trickster
Destroy all doubt

Fight to Believe
07:15
|
|
||
I have travelled across gulfs of time
I've had enough of bitter wine
So weary I would lay down my arms
But forever I must wander
Troubled by past mistakes
No more regrets, amends there are to make
Metamorphosis by dark forces
A puppet for a legacy of pain
A persona sometimes doubtfully feigned
No longer me
Transcending them is victory
Fight
Fight to believe
That there's more
Worlds than these
Fight
Fight to believe
That there's a future left to seize
In debt to fear and illusion
I search year after year
Comfort in the isolation of caution
And imagined histories
Exclusion takes two
A barren desert with no end
And I must wander through
Is this the truce of solitude
A burden for which I feel not gratitude
In the soulless night
The will burns so bright
On the long road
I do seek still
Fight
Fight to believe
That there's more
Worlds than these
Fight
Fight to believe
That there's a future left to seize
Will I escape
From this ministry of mania
The eve of this journey
Was never easy
In the heavy gloom
My mind is elsewhere
Months slip by like sand
Through nervous hands
So make the most of it!

The Sacred Song
04:48
|
|
||
What do you mean when you say nothing is sacred
Can anyone live in this world of hatred
Was this astral configuration fated
In our designs
Should we have hesitated
Was our retreat from this future belated
The damage has been done
Can we reverse
What we've created
My pathway ends in its beginning
Just shoot your gun
What I have done
What was I thinking?

Fight to the End
08:46
|
|
||
You want it
You got it
You flaunt it
But you'll never know what you have
You pander
You twist
You hide
Every word a toxic saccharine lie
You bite
You chew
You feed
On the suffering of others
You waste
You drain
You blew it
Until we're nothing but skeletal scaffolds
(backwards gibberish)
Watch the world go by
It's the last thing you'll see before you die
Small and afraid behind it all
Nothing much behind that carapace wall
You left me with a waking nightmare
A marionette of you're conditioning
Aspirations vanished into thin air
No greater defeat nor ignominy!
Watch the world go by
It's the last thing you'll see before you die
Small and afraid behind it all
Nothing much behind that carapace wall
You left me with a waking nightmare
A marionette of you're conditioning
Aspirations vanished into thin air
Fight to the end by any means necessary!
