No Contact

Clones they seed together
But I am one, cut from a different frame
And I just can't sync up
They fell off production line wired to replicate
To recognise as one
And I can feel no contact here at all
Some may breed in heaven
But bleeding hearts, well they think this might be hell
and there's no ebb and flow
Where you walk, you may never
set a foot before yourself
It's just another road to bear
And I can feel no contact here at all
All hear the mother sirens roar
As another infantry is born
But everything I love is here
So I cant leave
Grace will flee, lies will seed
Lost at sea as laws entwine

Paranoid Carbon
05:17

From time to time I'm ruined by
this awkward serenade
As the hollow masses take in turn
to piss on my parade
With such delicate precision
I almost think they're peering in my soul
For each and every turn there is a legion to behold
a faceless opposition with a button for a soul
Take your lines from off each other
your faces from a bowl that I can't see
leave all your hollow fears inside
push all shallow dreams aside
For years of on and on
it's no surprise i'm growing old
For a bastard generation
with no will to let it go
And I weaken my position
every time I lose control in their face
Well there's something in the air
and I can't see what's coming on
They’ll feed on my condition
as I'm dying in the sun
And I'd like to leave this circus
And I'd like to stop the bus
but it just resonates
Is there nothing in the air? Are no voices anywhere?
In this infinite universe, I had to be spawned here
Do I suffer in this curse? Fuck my lovers in reverse?
Do I bow down to the uniform,
Lick the boots of all my fears?

Heathen
05:58
|
|||
I'm born of the sun
Killing my time
Taking a pull on a gun
Stood out of line
Missing the beats with my hair down
Breathe in, breathe out
Now, that’s God
Don’t know if its heartache or cosplay
But I'm gone
And it's understood
Heathen. Unclean son
Heathen. Godless one
I painted my soul
Harnessed the stars
So it's alright if I die young
It's all on the cards
And night after night I've been
Dreaming with the priestess for my cause
Don't know if I'm high or schizotypal
But I'm sure I am becoming someone
You've been frying your brain
I am becoming someone
As my mind falls away

Come here my child
Come here, join the interlaced
Yours is from birth
Yours is to assimilate
To never wonder why
This is home
And it's always been here
It's been here all along
Step inside, your call is waiting
So many seeds to sew
All backed against the wall
Take your place
Don't hear your heart
Don't be pulled to fornicate
No lesson is learned
Release all domain
Align to assimilate
One coronary urge
One lore to reassert
One artery to serve
One line of sight
One single brain
One common frame
Step inside
Take your place

Fold
05:10
|
|||
Should another come undone
My epitaph calls
I've been holding back the rain
Turning my scars into gold
Taming shadows
And if those ways should change
Just drag me back out on the rails
'cause this cant fold,
or I'll fold too
Shade to colour, sail out, sail out
All those whispering words I've saved
have buried my heart into this
Ten years gone
and now it's too late to change
To rip out the soul and start again
In this house I am sharp
Not fading away
Leave me here or the white coats
will take me away
Tie me down, put me out

Redshift
05:34
|
|||
Pull the cover from your face
And blow the terms away
Realign the cage with the world
One callous rearrange
And heavens gone again
Anachronistic colours on the wind
And from a call to arms
A soldier is on the march
Satisfied that on the field
There's nothing breathing
But stirring ash remains
Gone but not erased
For here am I still fighting on my own
It's not the same
Been tearing me apart
All hands are playing out the silence in your heart
The camera said it's time to call it off
Retreat as fear creates a cycle
I could blow your tears away
but it would make no difference
It's regardless of the cause
And I feel that contracts here are from some other war
And pride is in this dream
Did you just effortlessly change
or were you always this cold?
I am no-one

Fools Gold
07:21
|
|||
The sinking feeding
A scene to behold as lights go out in tow
And the altar is reborn wall to wall
All the cards I hold are mine and mine alone
It seems the empty show is not sinking in
And the actor is both the star and the audience
On the screen of his mind, as he's honing his lines
And they can't get off, as sure as the sun is sinking
Pulled to the careless breeding
And all the wired souls stay on
Aligned by a change in the heart
No semblance of yesterday
We've all gone numb to feel
With mouths on fire, just cross your heart and believe
That nothing is unreal
So medicate and surrender
For all roads they lead back here
Still they can't get off
The lines we draw today will breed in the end
And extort as the feast goes on and on and on
Flies feed like the beat of a heart coming inside

Entheogen
05:48
|

We gather here in line
Creation in doubt
All heathens overthrown
Baptised and faithless
In thrall to nothing
We ingest our grace
Immaculately glow
Tranquillise the godless
A love synthetic
Rise off thy feet, renew thy faith
Dissolve into the ocean again
We gather here in line
No longer devout
Old idols undersold
Dead eyed and prayerless
Devoid of heartbeat
We ascend our place
With radiance bestowed
Paradise from snakebite
Artificial glory
Rise off thy feet, renew thy faith
Dissolve into the ocean
Rise off thy feet, rejoice thy change
Dissolve into the ocean again
The architect of light, appear unto I
Breathe in, breathe out

Breaking The Machine
03:45
|
|||
I'm breaking the machine, tearing it apart
I started at the heart, pulling at the elements
Killing the machine, stripping out the parts
To liquidate won't take too long
So call the engineers
The code is obsolete
I'm circling the drain, banging at the door
So what's this program for?
It won't load/download
These loins were sated long ago
It's too late to say hello
And in my heart and soul I feel it's over
But don’t blame us
It’s a song we can but sing
And if you stay too long
Then you'll never get out
Breaking the machine to rejoin
The system is on freeze
Fading out the screen to white noise, to shadow

Kick The Dog
04:23
|

Mr Perfect is on the rocks again
He couldn’t handle what the stars had sent
How could an angel get such disrespect
When all he offered was his detriment
and his scorn
He took a message form the top again
A black report invoking dissonance
To keep his innocence and self respect
He had to falsify the evidence
He was feeding wolves in the dark
He only wanted to be free
to be a law unto himself
Mr Victim bit the tar again
Another DUI to circumvent
But don’t be quick to point the finger yet
He's just a victim of his circumstance
He took a ride out in his car again
An open top one like the presidents
And all the innocents who tied the belt?
Well, they're just guilty 'cause they failed to help
He washed open sores with his salt
He only wanted to be free
to be a law unto himself
Don’t stare too long at the sun
(It's lies anyway)
They just want someone to burn
(To bleed and suffer)
Strawman and scapegoating whores
(They need to sell the blame)
They point the finger away from themselves
