We can see the red planet growing
Our ship out of date
Communications are all down
The captain drinks like an open flood gate
And his people skills leave a lot to be found
We seem to have lost the antenna, sir
I think we clipped a rock back in quadrant four
Why are you in my cabin, boy
This ship is perfection
Just sit back and enjoy
I would sir, but with the antenna gone
I’m pretty sure our navigation systems are wrong
Now we’re slowly drifting out of range
To wait any longer would just be insane
What, why the hell are you still here?
I thought I heard a buzzing sound around my ear
I’ve been flying these fucking things since you were in diapers
I’ll tell you if there’s anything to cry about, spineless
This is not how it was meant to be
I think I want my money back
I think this is just too real for me
We’re here, get up
Get your shit and get out
It’s time to play your stupid game
Stop fucking about
I want you off my ship
As soon as you can
Cause I got plans with a lady friend
And you're where you want to be
Excuse me sir, but I think we’re not
I was looking at the map
And you see this dot?
That is where we’re meant to be
I can’t seem to find...
Hey wait, don’t leave!

Dance For Science

Welcome to my humble abode
I got lots of entertainment
Set in store for you all
Just make your way down
To the lavish hall
You'll see the other guests
Enjoying the ball
Drinks are free
And the girls are easy to talk to
As they gesture with their fuck me eyes
The weeds fruity
And the LSD I used to spike you should be kicking in about this time
Make your way to the dance floor
Show us your stuff
The bass resonating down your spine
Now you've begun
It's in your best interests
Never to stop
Unless of course you don't want to survive
Dance
Like the water bends with the earth
Let your body contort with the sound
Till it hurts
Put your party hands up in praise of my work
Lay your lives to rest because science comes first
Yes, those poles are conductors Hooked to the floor
I got this whole place electrified Something tells me
You’re appalled
Well you should perk up
This is for science
It is worth your life
Let's see your tango
Nut bush the Do Si Do
You Macarena
And Ill make you fry
Feel the power of suggestion
Fool you to the bitter end
There was no danger
It was all implied

A rōnin city
Lends its toil,
To rebuild our constructed disease
And oversee all
A synthesis of morbid ardor
With delinquent overtones
Despicable the system
That relies on blood for gold
We understate the massacre
Relentless on our soul
Our lives are laid out for us
So make it all you know.
I like the pretty lights
The amber glows on the street signs
Soft rain and a gentle tide
Waves that crash against the night
We’re off to see the wizard
The wonderful wizard of emptiness
The times have changed and everyone’s strange
And now they’re addicted to fucking meth
He holds the key to safety
Or at least that what the poster said
Don’t blame me if he’s angry
When we find he’s just a giant head.
The yellow brick road is stained with blood
The blood of those killed in the rush
To see the emerald city
As it spirals to decline
The tallest towers crumble
And trap all those beneath
The wizard lied
And people died
And now our heroes rest in pieces

Demons
04:01

|
All the details
All the inhibitions
Overwhelm
Frighten the hell out of ourselves
All spectators
To all empires
Insiders
Not listening
It's all repeating
Can you not see them
Smiling
I see the demons
The ones that should not be
I see the demons
Running everything
At the end of the line we forget everything and
Some things we should not have left behind
Under the signs we fumble to attention
And give away our precious
Time
The dust settles and the bones are on display
And we act as if nothing is hidden away
A constant struggle to protect a system built as a cage
The repression dependent
Led by deceit, followed by weak
Just never speak of the stage
We all play our part on

Train

Wake alone
Head like a rock
Curse your nature
And the birds chirping
A rush of bile fills your gut
Change location
To the porcelain
Late at night
You drink more than a friend would dare
Satisfied
You’ve got yourself to blame again
Another drink
To give in to the ways of the world
It’s as if you seek to bury your head
Can you blame a wretch that has sought his worth
And was found worthless in the world that we have
Tried so hard to change our lives
Tried to fix all of our shortcomings
You came with invention to heal our sickness
Now you realise
The true extent of greed
In the night
They came and took your family
Sacrificed
Unless you ceased your noble deeds
Another drink
To give in to the scum of the earth
Now you know they hold your life in their hands
Another coward whispers his will to the servants
And forever more he will claim what we have

Sky (Live @ The Cavern)
04:16

Alone in the skies
We fly with the breeze
Ever fleeing the threat
Of reality
Silent through the night
As if out of a dream
A giant city
Hovers over the trees
We rub our eyes
And shake our heads in disbelief
This offers us no sanity
A closer look is all agreed
We glide around
And with no signs of any danger
We find a place to settle down
And wait for light
To show the mystery
It glides around the friendless sky
A haunted city
Gently floating through the night
Our presence echoes along stone walls
Throughout the debris
Our thoughts beyond control
We can search for the meaning behind it
We can live for the purpose that claimed their souls
We can put the other world behind us
We can start again devoted to change it all
Now our path leads us down into the bowels
Our leader gives his peppy speech
Determination is now leading us blind
To find the source that fuels this beast
Breaking silence we hear the footsteps clear
The hairs stand up upon our backs
And the violence we fear
Could boil all onto the surface
Our lust for entertainment
Won’t glorify fatality
