HARMONIC INDULGENCE

Hear all the words that we speak of our goodness
We still cause pain
You explain
While we’re here all we can do is be sincere
That’s what they say
Someone must pay

Stage the float
Show the song
The ink is smearing
Sing along

We’ve made such progress inducing our fatness
Weight of the soul
Each his own
Picture in your mind the fears and yet outside
Smile and deny
Living a lie

The house lights dim
The clock says three
The trap set sounds
No one is keeping time

The clock says three again...

 

I have a feeling that time will soon end
And the real shall remain
Without stain

Hear...



FALLING IN 3s

See the sky
Ever wondered why...

Scholars analyze
Children see with open eyes

Seeking to explain
Finding we’ve been wrong again
(And the new facts are born)

Knowledge soon will end
God won’t fit inside your head



EVERYTHING

I try to find a place to rest but
EveryThing changes
A piece of shade on which to lie my head

The people watch i feel their eyes
I can’t help my thinking
It’s Man’s new day they want me to believe
EveryThing

I know they notice
I notice they could never help
If you are with me why am i here?

We’ve gone so far we’re losing
I see the writing
They march and scream, i watch them drown and die

I try to find a place to rest but
EveryThing’s shaking
As this world fails i know i must now leave
EveryThing

I know they notice
I notice they’d rather pretend
I know that feeling, i just couldn’t stay there

But i can’t help thinking
They can’t help thinking as they do
We’ve needed your hand
For so long


MINNIE’S TREE

She always tries so hard
She knows what’s in the cards
Kills you

So many come and gone
Visions of hanging on
Keep her...

She’s dancing in the dark
She chose the better part
She’s dancing in the dark
She’s waiting for the Sun
She’s not the only one
She’s dancing in the dark...

Odd things are happening
She knows it’s nothing strange
Old news

Time she can’t even move
That’s when she feels the groove
Sweep her...

She’s dancing in the dark
She chose the better part
She’s dancing in the dark
She’s waiting for the Sun
She’s not the only one
She’s dancing in the dark...

She’s dancing in the dark...


PEOPLE DON’T KNOW

I want to see
You, oh you...
When will it be?
Sometimes here
I feel so chained
Oh, but i know
You felt much the same...

Feel so free
Stuck in between
Thieves left and right
And the tree’s green
I hear the news
Perversion’s in
So are the results
They don’t like to print...

I want to see
You, yes you...
When will it be?
I hear the news
You’re closer each day
I’m so glad
I can’t wait...
