Usurper
03:35
|

|
Cornered like a wild dog I woke up in two coats
A room full of people
The man has awoke now
Send for the dumbwaiter
Clear out the dishes
We shall have champagne
A celebration
The man has awoke now
Do you know that what you're doing is of
Great importance to our little group
The people have waited and after many failed coup
They talk of you
They've want for you
Let us raise our glasses
Remove all your hats
Here's to you
The soul of this cursed muzhik was sewn on his body

I am not Dead

I am not Dead
I am just a dick head
Please don't ignore my flailings for your attention
Give me the lights
I'll tell of the fights
That which I had and you were missing
I see your saliva stick from lip to lip and it disgusts me
When we were kids I thought about how you would fuck me
Now I know that it's not that impressive
You just look so good in padded bras and tiny dresses
I had to lose my mind to find my humanity
I promised a million promises
I broke a million promises
I know the meaning of a word
I know that mine means nothing
They say things will work your way, sure
I know different from the sayers
Unfriendly is the law here boy

Low Current
04:14
|

|
Flow
Velvet lips
Coursing with low current
Stinging the skin
Pleasure is sin
Velvet lips
Filled with low current
They open up slow
And let it flow

The Wall Tells Me All
02:43
|
|||
|
Isn't it nice when you wake up in a funk, ya come around, and say
"Ok, I'm gonna need a minute"
And go
Name the first thing that you need
"I need time"
Cause I got no rhyme, but I got some 'shine
I heard it through the wall
The wall tells me all
"Shut up and get in line"

Proto-Man
04:27
|
|||
|
I am no super-man
I am a regular man
Built with irregular plans
Plans to block out the sun
Build kingdoms for all the dark ones
Empty the fullest of nest
I am no super-man
I am the proto-man
Built with proto-plans
Plans to block out the sun
Hunt flocks till there are none
Till none
Chains break after too much use
It all comes crashing down
Yes, sweet but low-down
Down by law, down by fraud

Hawks
04:20
|
|||
|
Shatter these gates all away
Shatter them with trebuchet
Flames red and yellow wave
Smell of man in grave
Rot is in the wind
Hawks have been sent
Our lady waits above
Necromancy in the distance
The dead have a peculiar moan
Tonight we wait
Under moonlight I stay awake
We wait

Nefarious
05:16
|
|||
|
I can be nefarious and you can be a slut
I contemplate egregious thoughts
Behavior of the such
You put on your high heels and the shortest skirt you've got
At first you seemed so wicked but the clothes are all you've got
You are just a thing that represents avarice
Let it rain for days

Moonbeam
05:54
|
|||
|
I see you and me on a beach in my dreams
I see you and me under moonbeam in my dreams
I see only me in a spherical ship in the abyss
What gave me this lonely vision
Why does it holler my name
Just if you say the word
I'll be gone like in a dream
Like something you've never seen
My dreams, the channeler of emotions and scenes
You want it to mean
My dreams, you came before me, passed down innate things
Combining our being
My dreams, the pilgrim into, the moonbeam cuts through
Fresh water anew

Knowledge or Wisdom
04:52

|
I don't need no cards
I don't need no debit
I don't need no credit
I don't need no loan
I don't need to come home
I don't need no wife
I don't need no life
I don't need no games
I don't need no drinks
I don't need no sky
I don't need an ocean
I don't need any air
You can keep my share
I don't need no habits
I don't need a crutch
I don't need my life
I don't need very much
Not very much
I don't need the dro
I don't need petrol
Don't need to be scared
Don't need to be anywhere
Don't need place and time
Your's or mine
I don't need Papa's hat
Don't need Mamas mat
Memories, niceties, television
Knowledge or wisdom
