Morning Star
03:23
|
|||
|
Lost in the dark, feeling for the walls, I hear an echoing
Cutting so sharp, I seem to lose my balance, and fall from the universe
An alien sun
Polaris makes the mark
So hang your aching head upon the morning star
Its shines upon the earth reminding who we are
I trust upon the compass of the morning star
And waking to the future
Empire to build, I think I’ll take my chances on what’s left of the fading dream

In any other day than this I might recall, the words to make you feel better
and spin the waves of the record known by heart
I’ve tried to fool myself to sleep so many nights I fear I may never wake up
A moonlight trance
I drank the drink-me, ate the eat-me, played the cards against the queen and still I’m still down, I’m still down
Make you think, that you’re nothing, hanging around with the no ones
Low Times in High Fidelity
A volume filled with ignorance, dog-eared every page, and read it cover to cover
And waste my time with all these pointless lost pursuits
We’re crowded in shoulder to shoulder cross the vast open expanse and can’t stand out, I can’t stand out
It’s so apparent now I’m older, may as well enjoy the view on the way down, on the way down

Future Rust
04:25
|

|
Let’s get closer, complicated
Burn the sunlight, watch it fading
While we’re dancing to the radio
In my memory I can smell you
Cloves and daisies, in your bedroom
Lauren Hill is on the stereo
With time and space, nothing to hold but your trust
For all I know it’s building up to future rust.
In simple ways I’m learning to live like I must
In sun and rain, we’re all gonna rust
In my rear view California
Coins and wishes for atonement
Here I’m parked out on the interstate

Bull in a China Shop
04:26
|

|
I’m not the bigger person
I’m not the wise old sage
I just want to dig my trenches
And leave at end of days
I’m not your dictionary
I’m no Rosetta Stone
I’m not your post to lean on
It’s true you’re on your own
Not gonna wait around to find out
Not gonna wait around to blow up my head
Not gonna wait around to stroke out
I’m gonna leave to watch the sunset, cause I want
Might call it nepotism
Might call it cheaping out
I’m down to fuck you pay me
And high tail it out of town
Kindness thrown out
Cat has got your tongue
Bold regardless

Cardioid Blind Spot
03:47
|
|||
|
I might be warming up, turn me over
But the spinning wheels are stuck, on the shoulder
I lost the day
In a trade I lost my soul to the devil
In a fair enough bargain, it's on the level
For the pay
While I stare at brakelight eyes, on a road that’s never ending, I get home and start again
in a cardioid blind spot, I can’t see what I’m forgetting, until it’s all too late
I’m stuck on 93, in Massachusetts
While ideas fall aside, oh now I forget
Gone away
They’ve gone away

Four Pests
03:58
|
|||
|
Set the domino in motion, raze the land and boil the ocean
Slay the sparrow, save the barley, catch as catch can terraforming
For the party, made up of the few
No exceptions ever made for you
We are the masters of the sky and of the fields
This is the new world order
It is a forest fire burning wild
We take the Great Leap Forward
Plague of locusts your reminder, leaders can’t contain environs
Catalyst of boundless hubris, a dressed in black scarecrow is useless
You are alone in rule
We are together when we fall

Mata Hari

A title wave entertainment
All custom to order
I forget the times where we all shared hope
You wore that record out
I hear the needle coming down
We’re waiting for the kings to take their crown
The stories became a movement
The Clash to the order
Forget a throwback, mercury retrograde

Goin' Out East
04:12
|
|||
|
Goin' out east, we don’t have much fun
Haven’t got much faith, and I never want some
Goin' out east I’m gonna drive my car
Like I got someplace to be, gotta get real far
Sunrise to sundown
Breaks over, shuteye
I’ll keep the lights on
No need to bow out, or bow down
Goin' out east gonna bury our problems
Gonna dig em back up cause we're never gonna solve 'em.
Goin' out east, gonna drop our R’s
Where stars are in the sky and we drink in bars
