Nobody Comes Around Here Anymore 04:33
lyrics
buy track
He took the pills Joined the new immortals A destiny fulfilled An overturned natural order And where to lay the blame Materialists' wager Why would they feel shame To route the great invader Time will march astride A fleeting of self conscious A transmission denied For a trickster's promise For those who still survive A dream of liberation And though left behind The promise of salvation They'll never remember when life meant more A guiding light in the fog of war But nothing changes, no motivation Just underwhelming disinclination This spectral world A space of ever after A thought answered in song A time of peace and laughter It's time to live beyond This stasis so corrupted The weight you carry on Ascendance interrupted They'll never remember when life meant more A guiding light in the fog of war But nothing changes, no motivation Just underwhelming disinclination I'll watch over There's no need to fear When time catches up to you You know I'll be there When will you cross over? It's been such a long, long time My dear, there's more to this story But nobody comes around here anymore

Leaving You 03:05
lyrics
buy track
I’m leaving you to go to hell the way you want Nothing ever pleases you well maybe this will be a start It’s growing late and way past time for goodbyes No use talking now, I never liked to see you cry Deceptions, confessions, exceptions So who is it now I’m talking to? I guess we’ll never know which one is really you This game was always old, even when we were young I guess it doesn’t matter much as long as you’re still having fun Deceptions, confessions, exceptions Obsession, aggression, deception

Oblivion 03:00
lyrics
buy track
My mind works best not making decisions I'm caving in under my own ambitions And every morning brings a new day I'm losing touch, got frost on my brain Gravity's off, I float around Can't discern my up from down I could take a trip, alter my name Join the revolution and nothing would change I dream of oblivion I miss you my old friend My trusted companion Until we meet again Still I go to work, it's my own fault I don't understand where the time goes And my timing's off, the stakes grow Thought i knew, but I just don't know The indicator lights, they blink red I'm going back to bed Reality with a foot in the door Now a distant time before I dream of oblivion I miss you my old friend My trusted companion Until we meet again

Better Broken 02:56
lyrics
buy track
I think it would be good today If I just walked away Left you standing there Alone with our despair Better broken Better tossed aside Here’s hoping That we won’t have to say goodbye I think it would be nice today If you just went away Left us standing there Alone with our despair I think it would be right to say The world has lost its way We’re all stranded here Obsessed with all our fears Better broken Better locked inside Here’s hoping That we’ll wake up and realize

Rat Park 02:40
lyrics
buy track
Haven't slept for three days Open throttle, open freeway Don't recall what i'm running from An unmarked grave buried in a maze It's not easy, stubborn as I am These hypocrites don't understand They cast the mold, but I am much to old No control, more beast than man Give me something I could use Or give me someone I could lose Oh mama, don't give up on me Take me back to Rat Park Dump out, gas up, on my way Sixteen hours to L.A. The exit that I take, the heart that I break Every toll too high a price to pay We all know there will come a time An impulse too divine A righteous doubt to eat me inside out Oh dark and broken mind Give me something I could use Or give me someone I could lose Oh mama, don't give up on me Take me back to Rat Park

Wish 03:00
lyrics
buy track
Oh! My darling no! Look up my dear, don’t cry We have today Let’s brush those tears away Don’t burden your heart Don't trouble your mind We’re only passing by Oh! My darling no! You won’t see me cry We have today Let’s chase those fears away Don’t burden your heart Don't trouble your mind You’re only passing by Don’t burden your heart Don’t trouble your mind We’re only passing by

Waiting for the War 03:56
lyrics
buy track
The rifles are clean, the water drawn Cans stacked up on a shelf A media simulation gone wrong And we're praying for détente We lived a dream, tried to ignore The shit leaking out of the pipes Now with the power out on this bitter cold night We're waiting for the war The commentariat left weeks ago For their rocky mountain bungalows Jettisoned the mess of their creation The militia family down the street Drills out a false retreat Preparing for their personal Ilerda The activist, the angry mob The bootlegger and baptist all Sloppy drunk in a pool of self-delusion Fingers point across the hall Stick to the script, heed the call A third act towards a forgone conclusion
