if you understood how it feels
just to live in the dreamworld a little more
who would you be?
how could you be like that?

masters of the road
05:01
|
|||
|
we're born from the ground
emerging as omen
and the silent bars of time hold on to our throats.
we find ourselves thinking of freedom
while told there's no more
while the laws that we learn when we were younger
sink to the floor.
we question the rules of our culture
and don't ask for more
while the people that chase all the power
vanish
as we hit the road
we're masters of the road
and you don't know us
cause all you do is do as your told
and it works for you
but this won't do us any good
so we go away
and build up a farm where we can sleep
where money can't buy you nothing
and start up a beautiful garden where we can make
the same mistake again.
we come in to town
the doors are all closed
and a little light hangs over each porch.
the people inside
their minds are half frozen
and the little voices in their heads aren't theirs.
you don't even know what you want
but you ask for more
and the guiding light inside you dies
that's why
we're masters of the road
and you don't know us
cause all you do is do as your told
and it works for you
but this won't do us any good
so we go away
and build up a farm where we can sleep
where money can't buy you nothing
and start up a beautiful garden so we can make
the same mistakes again.

why do you ask me to lie in the path of your ignorance?
when will enough be enough for the violence to end?
is this official, your stance is that money is
more important than living with wisdom
more important that the lives of the children
more important than the wind in the trees
please please tell me it's just a dream
our hearts aren't run by the machine
so turn off the news
be with the human
the gravity rules
are deeper than culture considers
take to the streets
put up resistance
take to the woods
and build up your homesteads and cabins
No, we won't go
No, I don't care who they put in to office
the address was already sold
a mirage of the emperors cloak
they tell us to give up the power
but we already know
that in every moment we can choose this life
and practice compassion
cause love will get us through the fight.

the colony
03:30

they were just a colony of people too brave to fight
one another
took off when they lost the war
with nothing but open arms
for each other
they believe
that there's relief
in each other
where are we going
when there's nothing but money left in the world
who gets our souls?
fight for the privilege to tear our your heart
to get to the top
to gain control
on your own
back and forth
ground control...
they take off towards the milky way
with endless nights of endless stars
under planets
see them when we close our eyes
spirit takes you back to the home planet
there, on earth
the people crying
heard by nothing
whose got money
god is money
don't go breaking law
god is money
let's go drop some bombs

sea birds at dawn
04:32
|
|||
|
twenty days after the first and there's still silence
consciousness is back to figure it out
figure it out
psilocybe worshiping cults rule the world
you walk down boulevards of ashes
how were you to know
you'd be the last human
on the face of the earth
you managed to kill all your enemies lying in wait
and you built up your castle
from mountains to shore
now the last thing to do is go home
where they assure you
you're the last piece of life on the earth
Now you're gone and the presence still weighs against silence
ain't no shame just our nature folding us
infinitely
when we're gone where's our passion
mid the sea birds at dawn
confide in dogmatic standards,
the earth explodes and our infinite souls
will be the last human
on the face of the earth
we managed to kill all those fucking old people we hate
and we built up our fortress
from mountain to shore.
when we sight up our bullet
the vultures circle
and the plants in the forest
flourish
while underneath
the last piece of life goes on
when we're gone there's the whisper
of the wind.

politics
06:00
|

draw the borders on your map
so you know where to fire the gun
lock your doors,
light up your streets at night,
tell yourself your worries matter,
they sell you what you want to hear,
you sign contracts guaranteed to fail and worst of all,
you could have gone and made some friends
instead of wasting all that energy,
what's the use of your politics?
mine your mind,
walk down to the valley where the sun is shining,
what's the use of your politics
when we're no longer free.
We live each day, each second,
in timeless space potential
if what you want is not the truth well,
is it for you?
if what you want is not for you well,
then what's your truth?
your worries are after you,
they sell you what you want to hear
you sign contracts guaranteed to fail and worst of all,
you could have gone and made some friends
instead of wasting all that energy,
what's the use of your politics?
mind your mind
walk down to that valley where the sun is shining
what's the use of your politics
in our transparent future
as the moon rises over the lake
and our wounded heart breaks overhead
will we consider this the end of our wish
or are the choices we make in the winter
choices we'll make
in fall

golden age
04:38

Hold on to your soul
as the Golden Age appears,
Hazel eyes,
what song shall I sing?
All I hear is you whispering to me...
When you and I get old,
when you and I get old,
we'll find out what our blind eyes
don't seem to know.
It's no mystery why time goes so slow when you're not around
it makes me spin round,
round the sun.
So hold on to your soul
as the Golden Age appears,
Hazel eyes,
sing to me please,
all I hear is you whispering to me
When you and I get home,
when you and I get home
to the house where the blind eyes
don't seem to go.
We'll awake to the thought crime
that we can be whatever we want
when we spin round,
round our hearts.
We hold on to our souls,
they are timeless.
Your mind
cuts through time and blinds us.
Restore
the chaos in your mind.
Let go,
time is an illusion,
when you and I break through
when you and I break through.
The blind eyes forgotten,
one with the whole.
It's no mystery that your brain makes time,
it's always now.

hittin your limit
02:12

I don't understand what you mean
when you say what you mean
headin down northbound
on the I-5 goin 75 miles per hour with a joint on fire
hittin your limit.
hittin your limit.
hittin your limit.
and it don't matter
daughter or son
fake or holy water
the whip or the gun
if you're getting your rocks off
or if you can't get none
matter is meaning
and meaning is what you come here for.
what you come here for
and it don't matter
if this is all we got
if we can even sway
the origin of thought
can you get the rust of culture off?
is your heart attached to expectation?
