Caravan

You’ve got to share the burden
You’re falling far behind
You can’t do this alone friend
For we are of your kind
You haven’t got much longer
We haven’t far to go
You’ve got to get much stronger
(we need the things you know)
I see your throat is dry friend
No colour to your skin
We can share our water
If you let us in
We can look out for you
And help you if we can
You must come with us now
And join our caravan
You’re suffering from delusion
Your mind is full of holes
We’ll rid you of confusion
We’ll give you back control
We won’t leave you behind friend
For you are one of us
The caravan moves onwards
A cluster in the dust

Chemical Pigs

Built my bed on a funeral pyre
Stoke it up so the flames get higher
The drills are pounding sound from ground
Songs from the baying crowd are loud
Feel the floor begin to quake
The earth itself seems to shake
The water is poisoned, the soil is dry
We are all condemned to die
This barren land of today is doomed
It's been calcified and stone entombed
Blindness and greed, and inhuman deeds;
Snatching the food from the mouths they should feed
Mechanical beasts beneath our feet
Crawl in darkness to join the feast
Pigs above and beasts below
Gather round to see the show
Feel the floor begin to shake
The earth it ruptures with a quake
We have been poisoned but left alive
We are all condemned to die

Trapped inside my embryonic shell
Poison locks internal prison cell
Metamorphic power we bestow
(We drank from the sub-atomic flow)
Something’s gone inside
It wears a flesh disguise
Infected paradise
With its burnt out lights
Siren calls us from our ancient sleep
We rise but are unsteady on our feet
We lie in the shadow of the moon
Something comes to free us from our tomb
Blaze of burning light
We have lost our sight
Darkness fills our eyes
A living compromise
Blinded eyes and clouded heads
and noises heard fill you with dread
As days they pass and hunger grows
We don't know what to do
Numbers diminish with every hour
We've done everything within our power
A curse upon the one who said
"To survive we'll consume the dead"
Extinction delayed by sacrifice
Deny the way and pay the price
Only human flesh will save
Our final descent into the grave
Feast on the fallen is all we can do
And if we die we will be eaten too
Fever takes over consuming our brains
Our crime isn't over, but it drives us insane

Space Garden

Won’t you come into my mystic garden
You just won’t believe your eyes
The sea inverted hangs above you
and the rain leaps to the sky
You will find inside this sacred garden
Things just aren’t quite as they seem
The grass shimmers here inside the garden
Irridescent flowers collecting sun beams
Come with me around this mystic garden
Sit a while amongst the trees
If you listen then you’ll hear them
They whisper on the breeze
Everything can change here, in the garden
Reacting to your inner thoughts
You will find your body transforming
Disintegrating to reform
You can choose to be here, in the garden
If you want to you can leave
If you choose to leave this sacred garden
You won’t believe what you perceived.
You can’t return to visit this wondrous garden
It will never be the same
For it sees your mind and then will show you
That you have also changed

Astral Projection
06:48
|

Incarcerated internal spirit dies with flesh
Disintegration - the cells infest the air
Tendrils of ligament - they twist and bind with strands of sinew
Bone anchor weighs me down, I don't want to be buried in the ground
I must eject myself or stay within these mouldering remains
I need a new disguise to stay upon this astral plane
Fanatic turbulence as ritual force liberates me
Freedom from tailored flesh - a dispossessed entity
Insemination of mind and body - a willing receiver
New born eyes with ancient sight - they've shifted in, displaced the believer
Amalgamation - my host it warms internally
Forever bound by will, my life renews eternally

Chrysalis
09:00
|

The beast inside of you
Is straining at the leash
You doubt experience
Whilst retaining false beliefs
You keep your skeleton
On the inside of your skin
Your metamorphosis
Will bring it outside from within
Every day feels
like a year to you
Until your life is
your own again
Treading onwards
In a groove
Neverending
You can't move
The way is so clear but you're anchored here
Tell yourself it won't be long
Stuck in the midst of an endless cycle
Until your chrysalis crumbles
Your walls are falling down
Freeing you from your confusion
Though your eyes seem to betray
This sight is no illusion
If you want to break free
Open your eyes
Be free from your disguise
If you want respite
Respite from life
You can change all the atoms within your brain
You are going to transform but it’s not so strange
Everything in fluctuation trying to rearrange
Nothing stays the same
You are a million different versions of what other people see
But none of those opinions could ever agree
No-one can tell you who you should be
You’ve got to figure it out so don’t listen to me
Everything inside you is liquidating
and everyone around you is anticipating
Your carapace is cracking but your will isn’t lacking
To get out of your shell you’ve got to keep attacking
The cracks are forming and your nearly renewed
Step out into the light even though your confused
You’ve nearly achieved what you have pursued
But you’ll never stop changing it’ll never conclude
Nothing stays the same

Wasteland
11:03
|

There's a place I can't remember
Because I left it far behind
It seems so long ago now
Before the end of time...
If there's someone in this wasteland
I'll be waiting right here
There's food and water that I'm willing to share
And you'd better not approach me
Because I've got too much to lose
If you keep your distance then I'll tell you the truth
And I don't think I will make it
There's a sickness in my core
This Earth is dying and will soon be no more
I don't want to die from the radiation
I've given my demise much contemplation
I know a secret that I'm willing to impart
All you've got to do is stop my heart
I've got fresh clean water and weapons galore
I've got three dead cows on the freezer floor
I've got the codes in a capsule in my mouth
You've just got to kill me if you want them yourself
My life is in your hands
But I've got your future in my mouth
I'd do it myself but its courage I lack
Just kill me now and never look back
