I’m valuable invincible the best of what we breed lost my tail and hurried down the evolution tree stand up straight with knuckles down we conquer what we see terraform the landscape and over fish the seas Are we alone in it all Are we alone Philosophy religious text it’s all the same to me Mutilate your demigods and do as they please Arms out stretched and looking up you see the sun careen feeling small we make up shit and practice what we preach Are we alone in it all Are we alone Faster now it’s almost gone we have become our own disease the landscape has given way to corporations greed Ice is melting quickly now there is rising in the seas but we can’t let our masters down, lets build those factories Are we alone in it all Are we alone

Lascaux 04:10
Well see now, Oceans run deeply inside our blood Careful don’t spill it, no. It runs all out Careful Conversations, and emotions run hot Faded religions and antiquated thoughts Careful where you stand there is blood on the crosses again You can have it all You can have my faith Well see now, A Chemical reaction is stronger than words Myths can be created, where life cannot Look at these paintings as they cover those rocks Faded from erosion, and not by gods Don't you feel it? ground is shaking again You can have it all You can have my faith

So it goes So the story goes things have changed Basically stay the same Very nice, Nice nice, very nice Come on now Things fall apart we’re animals with a heart here we are Yea If you can do no good at least do no harm Breathe it in la dolche vita part of me always a part of you Come on now Things fall apart we’re animals with a heart here we are Yea Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt

Aliens 04:30
Drop me off again Well I need to get out of this place somewhere cool and calm Where it’s waveless, pastural, serene Are you coming down? what’s science behind that death machine all the evidence When I’m drugged and feeling in between and I don’t know what it means and I’m lost in a dream you know all of the aliens have gone where do they belong? 
Back home Summers gone now but outside it’s 90 degrees I’m feeling home sick God I miss those beautiful autumn leaves and I don’t know what it means and I’m lost in a dream you know all of the aliens have gone where do they belong? 
Back home back home back home back home back home and I don’t know what it means and I’m lost in a dream you know all of the aliens have gone where do they belong? 
Back home

Question all that you hear and see The Problem is you’re discovering Light my way Light my Way Hide behind your computer screens the blue light from your mobile dream Light my way Light my way Behind the lies you know is something that you don’t best you leave it all leave it all behind I’ve got a disease something that belongs to me best you leave it all leave it all behind You put your faith in god and government And don’t you know it’s heaven sent Light my way Light my way Careful now or you lose your tribe Is that the way that you live your life Light my way Light my way Behind the lies you know is something that you don’t best you leave it all leave it all behind I’ve got a disease something that belongs to me best you leave it all leave it all behind

She wakes up in the morning Sunlight on her face Wonders how she got here Begins to contemplate She is ready for something new And She is waiting she is waiting there for you Far away…escapes…in dreams…new Hopes….prays…distain….for you Imprisoned by her emotions Wants to let them out Breathes in that cool cool air and Let’s it all descend She closes her eyes and lets it in And she will notice what is letting in Far away…escapes…in dreams…new Hopes….prays…distain….for you You, you And time likes to break and fracture into cracks and man, you sealed her up again like a fighter she stood on the edge of the wood while falling backwards for you again For you again, for you again…

Are we powerless did we give up all we had Materialistic but with a tendency towards good For we Bitch and we moan Bitch and moan are we angry I do not trust those who lead raze the government to protect those who have none For we Bitch and we moan Bitch and moan Save your payers But always send that cash need those favors boys for the Emperor is nude For we Bitch and we moan Bitch and moan COME ON AND FIGHT ME
 WITH GNASHING TEETH and Spit HAVE WE HAD ENOUGH
OF LOSING our DECENY
For we Bitch and we moan Bitch and moan strength in numbers bitch and moan

Secrets 05:14
Here they come, dressed in black Sleep in the gutter, like dirty rats She’s ok, she’s dressed white, and she’ll be coming back someday Ready to burn it all Little secret she kept Little secret she kept and the feelings and the feelings are dead inside And her feelings And her feelings are dead inside now Here they come two by two Looking for the poor and the few She’s ok she’s got the power and she’ll be coming back real soon Lets start this war Little secret she kept Little secrets she kept and the feelings and the feelings are dead inside all her feelings all her feelings are dead inside

Slashed and burned is no way to live alone Torn out pages from somebody’s tome Am I too old to see, that no one ever left me? And Perhaps Im blinded in my heart ‘mongst the waves I yelled “im coming back!” No one heard me, no one shouted out Perhaps ill drown wadding in this sea Ill keep on floating on endlessly I’m Waiting for signs Or something more Im waiting for signs It’s falling on me And on to you Cause I hurt myself I can barely sleep Troubled times, these are my troubled times When the weight just keeps on pushing me….down shut off the light there’s nothing for you to see here Well I wish that worked, yea… I truly do I’m Waiting for signs or something more waiting for signs It’s falling on me And on to you Cause I hurt myself I can barely sleep

Lake Erie 04:03
Don’t lose, what you have inside hard facts are getting harder to find Well, cold snow and driving winds Make me lose my mind Did you fear the endless void before its something have to avoid Well, bitter cold will leave you thinned of what you had on your insides Don’t you look down Don’t you look down all these things have come together waiting on some perfect weather Stressful time when we each could die living on the hard line And all that snow blocked out the sun You can’t see it, but it still shines Don’t you look down Don’t you look down all these things have come together waiting on some perfect weather all these things have come together waiting on some perfect weather

Wanderlust 03:38
I think I’m missing my wanderlust Not sure where it could be no use in looking round here this ain’t the place I used to be and I’ll climb higher just like in my dreams I can’t recall the time or place It must have been an illusion I was full and arrogant lost it all when I took my place And I’ll climb higher just like in my dreams just like in my dreams I’ll do it alone It’s finally time I face it I don’t know how to change me I know i searching high and low dear but ill keep searching till i can’t see I’ll keep searching till I can’t see I’ll keep searching till I can’t see I’ll keep searching till I can’t see
