Ignition

you won't do
what we say
you'll drop the bombs
anyway
we're bone dry
you spilled the cup
it's high time
to disrupt
when you tell me
it's alright
turn around
twist the knife
hello
can you hear me
line is dead,
the signal's static scattered like debris
we overload
the ammunition
4 3 2 1
we explode
hello
you can't see me
blinded by our
coffin's diamond crusted shimmering
we overload
communications
4 3 2 1
we explode

Embers
05:12
|

Raincoat and galoshes on
Clock ticks but the hands don’t move
Waiting for the bomb to drop
I stoke the fire and recall a tune
The chorus wrapped its coils around
My head, a snake with tale untold
Swallowing my memories and knowledge
That I had before
Clockwise, counterclockwise
Small movements, invisible eye
Wind sparks embers
Wind sparks embers
Wind sparks embers
Embers, embers
Just below the scattering clouds
Vultures circle buzzing bills
Meanwhile I’m on the ground
Spinning yet remaining still
At that time the rhyme arrived
Swooping down and opened wide
It took me in its beak and then
It all went dark now here I am
Clockwise, counterclockwise
Unpenned verses invisible eye
Wind sparks embers
Wind sparks embers
Wind sparks embers
Embers, embers
When am I
When am I
When am I coastal clear
When am I just a matter of time
When am I water meets the land
When am I clockwise
When am I counterclockwise
When am I wind sparks embers

Tide
05:13

It’s a piece of the puzzle
I found it on the floor
It’s yellow and warn
Flip it over see what’s on the other side
It’s a part of the picture
I can’t make out the whole
It’s tattered and torn
There’s only so much broken that you can hide
Disposition
Did you know I was knocking when you locked the door
Deposition
If you ask then I’ll tell you what I said before
It’s a piece of the puzzle
I found it on the floor
It’s yellow and warn
Flip it over see what’s on the other side
It’s a part of the picture
I can’t make out the whole
It’s tattered and torn
There’s only so much broken that you can hide
Four leaf clover
The grass is always greener on the other side
Cried and wrote her
If you seen the wave a comin’ got to ride the tide
If you seen the wave a comin’ got to ride the tide
If you seen the wave a comin' got to ride the tide

We're goin' back
We're goin' back to analog
We're goin' back
Tell the deejay keep that record on
At the discotheque
Groovin' to the music all night long
We're goin' back
Back to analog
We're goin' back
We're goin' back to analog
We're goin' back
Tell the deejay keep that record on
At the discotheque
Groovin' to the music all night long
We're goin' back
Back to analog

Coffee and Cream

Coffee and cream, the American dream
Tom rises rested in the quiet of the night
The quiet of the night, quiet of the night, quiet
Major Tom on the darkside of the room
The smoking gun and the ghost outside the room
The time is now if there ever was a time
so pop the cork and drink down the wine
drink down the wine, drink down the wine
Stole the sun now he's on the run
Flying faster than the bullet of the gun
Fiction that feels, Major Tom squeels
he didn't notice the ghost had joined the fun
in the journey of the sun, the journey of the sun, the journey
The ship hits land, but the scene was sick with gloom
Flown so far, their thoughts had left too soon
all that's round is the sun that's dripping now
we'll find our way Tom said, someway, somehow
someway, somehow, someway, somehow
And I know it's hard, trying to be happy here
In the times we are, STUCK INSIDE THIS VICIOUS CIRCLE
If I could find the words to bring us back to what was normal
I would take you there tonight
Out tonight (x many)

I'm So Tired
05:00
|

i've been staring at the walls
popcorn patterns have no flaws
their hand scraped justice holds the law
lookin 'round to find a cause
our two choices use their jaws
teeth filed down the truth is gnawing at me
i can't find my feet
today
a lie
the words
to die
nothing left to call a home
the foundation's future sewn
the crumbling fallacy erodes
standing on our ruins old
time of death was put on hold
heart still beating, my soul's crawling away
my body betrayed
i'm so tired of
hangin on
the torrid silence deafening
only my ears are bleeding
misery is on
the phone
should have texted instead
can't hear when we've bled
to sleep
perchance to dream
i can't
believe
eyes are closed dont wake me up
we just lie still dont interrupt
hold you close, the world combusts
sunrise glowing red at dawn
i'll go and put the coffee on
we'll be together while the
birds sing their songs
just whistle along
i'm so tired of
hangin on
the torrid silence deafening
only my ears are bleeding
i'm so tired of
hangin on
the torrid silence deafening
only my ears are bleeding
misery is on
the phone
should have texted instead
can't hear when we've bled

Compared to What (Live)
05:47
|
|||
I love to lie, I lie to love
Hangin' on with push and shove
Possession is the motivation
The mission of the whole damn nation
Looks like we always end up in a rut, everybody now
Tryna make it real, compared to what? Yeah
The president, he's got is war
Folks don't know just what it's for
Nobody gives us rhyme or reason
Have one doubt, they call it treason
We're chicken feathers all without one nut, god damn it
Trnya make it real, compared to what? Yeah
Church on Sundays, sleep and nod
Tryna duck the wrath of God
Creatures fillin' us with fright
Tryna teach what they think is right
They really got to be some kind of nut, yeah I don't dig it
Tryna make it real, compared to what? Yeah
Where's that bee and where's that honey?
Where's my god and where's my money?
Unreal values, crass distortions
Unwed mothers need abortions
It kind of brings to mind ol' young king Tut
Tryna make it real, compared to what?
Tryna make it real, compared to what?
Tryna make it real, compared to what?
Tryna make it real, compared to what? Compared to what?

Maksimum (Live)

We're gonna just take a deep breath and be in the space
And play Maksimum
Let's groove
(One, two, three..!)
He walked out onto the surface
With water in his eyes
Well, could this be his disguise?
He reached down to help a friend
He opened the door
Says, "Friend, I've been there before"
He walked out onto the surface
With water in his eyes
Well, could this be his disguise?
He reached down to help a friend
He opened the door
Says, "Friend, I've been there before"
That one was written by our drum set player Max Morkri back there
Let's give it up for Max Morkri, that guy is just super groovy, right?
We call him "The Count"
Max "The Count" Morkri
One!
