nothing conspired disregard nothing to see disregard, disregard heart set a afire don't let this news scare me single yet charred forever they burn in strangers to sleep at the gates where it is kept awaits forgiveness for all who slept fire and water sons and daughters of a seed knock and it shall open this scene is blown wide open knock and it shall open this scene is blown wide identified by what is picked from the tree it ain't the blood it ain't the blood its the deeds

if mother nature was your queen tomorrow she would have you dead why all the love for the earth and green if all you are is a nature-killing biped? (if all you are is a nature-killing biped) if all you are is a nature-killing biped? (what's left to say) (what's left to say) what's left to say what's left to say if love is for the ground you step all over, is that how you treat your friends too? is that a chip of compassion on your shoulder, or disgust for people like me and you? are these just signs of getting older, or do I not know what the f*** to do? if mother nature was your queen tomorrow she would have you dead why all the love for the earth and green if all you are is a nature-killing biped? oh well, what's left to say, what's left to say, what's left to say, what's left to say, oh well, what's left to say, what's left to say, oh well, where are your fucking brains?

At One 03:11
mercantile war method of old conquest next one hundred score despots of modern progress barreled over by a takeover technique into universal conflict trampling over provisional plead education preparing to power it the weapons in our hands limitless ambition burning from either side a merciless vengeance suppression of mind exercise gap the rulers and the ruled le programme credit card heist conductors and game theory tools the name of the game diminish capital sentiment another fee for the next man works toward the detriment we thought our heavy hearts were so secret turns out what was meant was discontent what if the real road to win had a view from the outside looking in by every rock upon which my head will rest peace of mind held tight gripped to my chest for the sake of which it is key to this quest we must do our best to get out of this mess

Counterpolar 02:23
world events occur like a movie in your eyes take good care your mind not be taken ransom onlooker behold a Disney tale disguised riding a counterpole left in tandem jaws gnash at the tail at the boarder once again we're left here to choose I choose to know the headstone of the corner the one who the builders refused the polar fronts are at it once again in the end the foot stool will be His

Out from the wings and onto a path to perfection Only a projection To justify dirty deeds on its way to inception iniquities reveiled ever so cleverly that the outcome still be enemy smite enemy Fallen upon the unguided are set obstacles the mechanics of free spirit but a lost soul free from yourself free from your goals Shackled to the money hole only stone cold eyes in a dead place with walking dead everywhere dim redemption peeks through the monitor so at a blank screen I stare through to people with weaponous words peaceful and destructive as it occurs we've heard of this before and the past proves its real the stories remind us we are mortal that's why I wish you were here to open your eyes if you wish to shine to glow with me in the deadly cold unto the fear we'll show no mercy into the next thing we'll have no fear

Birdseye 02:34
tell me about the pyramid plan what is that funny eye thing man? is the complete temple the perfected human? is the eye the eagle's land? facing the west to beform in unrest out of which comes the falcon head my heart races til repentance I wish not to save flesh or I'd be dead tell me about the pyramid plan what is that funny eye thing man? the temple is... is the temple the perfected soul? seems as though all of our dreams are diminished except a hundred score ago it was finished

B Comes A 03:32
Lord knows tonight I got the blues multiple stabs from flickering patterns everybody knows its the tube looks like the big old sham got shattered tainted messenger with the news here's the flash, kiss my ass jump in the pool to rinse the wounds picture is clear now, stainless on glass Lord knows tonight I got the blues multiple stabs from flickering patterns everybody knows its the tube looks like the big old sham got shattered it looks like your big old sham got shattered oh yeah don't go building up the bad news a rickety tower falls with the first blow always good to have someone to carry the gloom crown of thorns always good to have someone to carry the gloom 'cause I can't shake these horns don't be knockin' billy bad to spare the woes can't shake these horns

I can see I can see the shift Looks like year twelve really was a conscious lift I can see I can see the split a schism in faith and flesh I believe it, I believe it cockalorum woos a peaceful dove mother and child cease to love a rooster calls and guards the nest how many stars shall rise in the west like a white stone a bouquet of stars is thrown one hundred and eighty degrees away in the other direction men took pens and wrote it all down the motherland deemed them an evil terror barbaric and parted from the worldly crown providing us with great hope for our heirs forefathers, did you really believe in us? every man begotten from the waters stood coequal to slow erode in rust passing down to sons and daughters our sovereign albatross did you really, did you really go in for the win? what was it that was in your heart? so acquainted with ruling blood kin you scattered the pieces like a work of art I can see I can see the shift I can see I can see the split this is no leak nor a timid flow this is a flood I turn on the HAM radio hearing the faces play on ignorance
