well at least we're talking now / you covet they go along / you can always walk the insider track if you wanna stay slow / unless it offends all the insects / walkin on them / you should always watch when covering tracks / unless it upends all the tables / unless it upends / you could loose sight of home / you should call yourself an infinite king / and bound yourself in a little seed / give em razors instead of hands / shake hands with the best of them / give em faces instead of masks / see it with their own two eyes / give em funnels instead of mouths / we want to drink all the medicine / you covet they go along / they call themselves infinite kings / they go along / why not?

Cenotaph 02:13
in simple terms we still piece it together / this isn't common or understated fare / i break easy and outward / upward speaking / commonplace overlooked / the ashes weight forms the barricade / the incentive / listen / to their actions / each one with standards glowing on / listen / illuminate them / each one an ancient way / something we're born to be / we know / why break easy / flush them out / for their actions / listen
3.
Veruca 05:03
sarcasm aside think i've learned a lot from you / animal hide / has picked up a trick or to / oh yeah but is it true / in some simple light / all in some standardized test / i feel sterilized / nothing to conjure up / not behind the eyes / in the same note / he wrote 'there's no one home' / 'yeah we play with faults just the same' / 'just the same as all...' / like veruca salt / in the same note / addressed to residents alone / we would play with faults just the same / just the same as our rights / in the same note / 'it all falls off on its own' / 'every scream just all sounds the same' / 'it's a merciless howl' / we set land speed records / breaking knuckles on their doors / we're just awaiting for the degradation / to come stumbling groveling home / bow for veruca / at last we can see / all that we needed is our lessons / in our own mind / we find / yes we concede we're unclean / we are the aimless hours washing / our own mind / the aimless hours watching this unstandardized mess
4.
And now / what do you think of the past / to ingest a prescribed perspective / cane with which to lash / and so far / we're all embracing the edge / embracing language fading / and now / what do you think / what do you think / do you think / do you really need to think at all / and so / what do you think of the past / inside a tunnel vision / a thousand years at last / and so far / yer only scrapping the edge / in silent abject horror / and now / in a dull and aching way / r souls begging to say / we are / the formless masses / in a cartoon culture class / we're so tired / we stumble in last / we are / the fingerless pulses / while you're waiting for something to say / we're gonna wear your old clothes / we are the headless horses / every thought is so far away / every second a day / we are / and now / it's your move / c'mon wadda you think / move / think / stop pushing no you can't stop fucking around
5.
Rubik's 04:49
way past the days over driveways paved with dirt / you could travel far the echo was heard first / a place of no rhythm of no time of no pace / we threw rocks at cars / in a cage a fortress still isolation / hibernating home / like a leash cracked off in all the right places / sanguine black out home / in a dry wood way we are hauled and quartered / we're stacked up at set to burn / if it's like they say / what's one more day / as if we could walk home / i went looking for life belated / hands gripping the ground now to find their worth / i would have taken this fall from any height / so inflated so over-blown / i would have picked a better curse if i had the chance / i would have picked a bigger gun / watch them work / so send it back / you've been outplayed you've been over thrown / send me packing / you've been outplayed / it's over
6.
King 02:38
how high can you measure up when on top of shoulders you stand / now light speed in action forget the falling thoughts defined / say i'm alone in here?/ like i've always been / the first faint sign picked it up and shaped the world just like my mind / say i'm not free?/ i'm as free as i fight to be / “this life the honest way of doing time” / like another way to coincide / “like you're in space and you're hearing sound” / just another way to think about / like another way of doing time / like an honest way of telling lies / “it's all right” / void / everyone i see is in front of me / biting bullets / so chew on / everyone i see is along side of me / “I think life is just some big thought in the smallest mind” / goodbye
7.
Tincture 04:06
we can't pull this off / stands illusory / like half the rot we share / the fated foe / they wrought and wreck it's corpse / we sit and stare but it's always coming / the fated foe / we slit and sear his throat / your teeth / we sit waiting pecking disorder / is it me are cut claws turned upward / expose the posthumous no sound / strangulation all comes around / (show me) your teeth / we sit waiting / beta decaying / false engine of failure's complexion / a meal of meat gone off / like to see them breaking apart / your teeth / you can hang from it / heroes from home / expose the heretic sound / get yer fill and wait at the top / the teeth/ like canary souls all turned upward / all this meat all for free / expose / so this is what days are for / to collect a week like a / side effect of swimmin in / the glow of radiated skin / and so this is what a month is for / to drink a year like a / spoonful of medicine / open your mouth and force it in / so this what a year is for / to slip by your life like a / gang of thieves breakin in/ but it goes so easy / so this is what a life is for / to collect all the time / capture me / i'm a tower turned over / don't you know there's no letting go / expose / blaspheme credit / teeth of the sovereign / whats to see / whats been taken / expose your teeth / expose the heretic sound / now you see them all laid out / the teeth / you can hang for me over and again / get a heroes welcome but that was before / you hang for me / oh well look at the time / swing for me like the bastard clock / and it's pendulum swings in monotony / gag for me over and again / hands off a damsel you'll bust your teeth / get a heroes welcome from home we will / beg for me over and again / i foreseen your time it is / precious to no one

9,999 03:58
we can't say but honestly / we case the joint / the take is so well explained / it takes you apart / nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine / yeah thanks a lot / the only problem is razor wire / incomparable / the bottom drops out of it / gonna see a new floor now / polished new floor like the bottom / a river bed / today's new horror / you can't see right / the cold will take a piece of me over and / whisper secrets to the cracked Angkor wall / we're set to set our fires off / their silhouettes and the backs of their heads / look just like the frowning face in the pen / ha / we're setting our new fires off / gotta long way to go / like some mechanical race horse / and the suit walks / and it's obvious / it might take everyday / but it still walks and it's obvious / and it breaks the tie / and it still walks like the suit gave up / are you awake / no he's too far out / dead limbs holding you back it's all over your face / wherever you go / take down all the pieces / wind em up and watch em go / when you awake / i had a dream and you and you were there / dreamed so many places too many places / too many to know / i only half wished that you were there / forgive me / are you awake / we'll take down his box / and setup the pieces onto the floor / then just wind em up and watch em go / i had a dream and you were there and you were there and you were there / oh / we case the joint

Moth 03:43
what we have / is more than failure / the innocent recede / all we know / is gone forever / the matriarch / they spread like veins of salt / they break the trees down / they try to make a monster /and they break the trees down / you turn into yourself / they try to speak honestly / (i don't remember so many fires last week) / we have to beg / more than ever / because we hate / the scene / they're talking up silver / while women get the chalk / there's a need not ever seen / (just watch were yer walkin) / they take the trees down /you turn into yourself / they try to speak honestly / (we are more prepared for a war in the street) / what we have is more than failure / the matriarch / don't save our seats / c'mon yer missin the end / c'mon your missin out / however it gets you / your missing the end / ever since you've been bet on / all that work / feels like nothin at all / however it gets you / defend that line / the big sale of '55 / what's it like now / in the light / we're in final form / the age of all these prisons / the sound of bleach / the sound of blood / deus ex is on it's way to unexplain and mop it up / we're in final form /another decade of the skull prison property / the big man is in and soiling up the balcony / we're in final form / the set the stage the scene / the sound and lights the lcd / just get bigger better / kill em yourself just show it to me / like the boy who drowned / let's see

Janus 06:10
I will hallucinate / just like days before / all slings and arrows / strike their many chords / black magic hold / turns to wings of gold / that look like tar and feathers / then comes the day / can't do anything / skin turns to leather / death beds turn to sores / the black magic hold / no change of any sort / sees right through the error / it's so comfortable in here / said the fly to his host / i feel so near / with no graceful air / we salute all the arrows and their flight / with no tasteful candle lighting / we salute all the humans and their designs / we're safe here i guess / we're safe in their arms / trust me and never fall / the streets are over running / a life taking city / trust me in their fault / i speak with their god / the streets are over running / snake skins are shedding / it's too late for salt circles on the floor / i have been here a thousand times before / i invented the runes and words on your doors / cuz i am a devil / just de-evolved / i am a devil / de-evolved /a toast / a break in the main line / a counter point stretched back to the very core / a break in the main line / to the stagnation of the days before
