The Last Day
03:23
|

Last Day: I’ve got to keep myself in check.
Last Day: My head is spinning off my neck.
Legacy of mind will always trump time.
Destiny of soul: Part greater than whole.
[Unsung Lyrics:]
What mark should I leave?
What would that achieve?
Last Day: Built up, like an imminent wreck!
Last Day: My head is spinning off my neck.
All my life, I’ve not believed in you.
Small by strife, tithes sought relief from you.
But relief never came.
Or so I thought.
Then, I learned: Misfortune makes us stronger.
Better, and we last longer,
And from it, my life was fraught.
[Unsung Lyrics:]
You helped me by hurting me.
Now please save me by killing me.
Last Day's rights, Last Day's rites,
Last Day's rights, Last Day's rites,
Last Day's rights, Last Day's rites,
Last Day's rights, Last Day's rites!

We live, you died.
Oooo, Got high and cried,
"Whoa" the last time.
Whoa, oh my my,
Yeah, you were high that day,
Then you died, oh yeah, we cried that day.
If all the moments that we shared were true,
My life was changed forever all by you.
We are bound, you are free.
Mean in Heaven or asleep.
Sleep.
[Unsung Lyrics:]
Of all the things that ever made me blue,
It hurts the most when I think about you.
High that day.
Died.
Cried that day.
We: Bound.
You: Free.
Mean: Heaven.
Or: Sleep.

Drunken Dance

Snugs, Oasis, Cabaloosa, Guilicuddy Joe.
Up and down and in and out and all around we go.
Searching for a mate, a maid, a meter maid, or blow.
Here’s my one chance.
I’ll use my Drunk Dance.
Well, at 9 pm I turn into a bard.
Can talk the talk and walk the walk.
I just hope they don’t card.
Told her I was a doctor.
But she does not believe the stories that I weave.
On my next journey,
I’ll be an attorney,
I’ll live in Montauk,
And be friends with Ethan Hawke.
If I tell the truth, you’d think me uncouth.
But when I make shit up, you still won’t fill my cup.
Drunken Dance is the only thing that works.
Drunken Dance is the only thing that works.
Drunken Dance is the only thing that works.

Sines and Squares
04:44

Take a look around you;
Tell me what you see.
Tell me, have your dreams, set you free?
Tell me everything now:
Where is your skin?
Is it the same one you’ve been living in?
But you’re running out of reasons.
Spinning words of “wisdom,”
Do you own those words?
Or is it the credits raked in, you prefer?
We must be losing touch now,
For I can’t hear your cry
With both ears reaching through the other side.
While you’re running out of reasons,
Strut your stunning drought of seasons.
Strut your stunning drought of seasons.
As introspection deepens, ask for true insight.
Ask for help escaping blatherskite.
Ask for anything now: What matters most?
Playing the role of parasite or host?
While you’re running out of reasons;
Strut your stunning drought of seasons.
Strut your stunning drought of seasons
While you're running out of reasons.

Antrum II

My antrum shadows of the sun and sky are still,
Our rain shows on the winds and woods.
That wild and beautiful,
Your telephony flows.
The cave of the thick beam and stream,
The young man with his shoulders.
Lonely and shining streamlets swell into the deep,
Afraid of the world and heart.
Golden conversation.

Sore Raven Soar
04:19

|
Nerves raking coals,
Through every hole.
Hot and cold,
Temp won't hold.
Cold and hot,
Dope-filled thoughts.
Lost and found,
Broken down.
[Background voices]
One day clean from the hard stuff, Rosco.
Wishing' I had more but shit is rough, that's all I got, yo.
Feeling lower than a shotgun victim face down on the floor.
This life has got to show me that there's something more in store for me. Not you. For me. Bitch.
[Background voices]
Don't listen to them, bro:
Sore Raven: soar!
Sore Raven soar, Raven.
Sore Raven soar, Raven.
Sore Raven soar, Raven.
Sore Raven soar, Raven.
I'm back on my own two feet.
(Did you let it go?)
You can't knock me off now!
(Did you let it go?)
I'm back on my own two feet.
(Did you let it go?)
You can't knock me off now!
(Did you let it slide?)
I'm back on my own two feet.
(Did you let it slide?)
You can't knock me off now!
(Did you let it slide?)

Untenable: all these dreams about deliverance.
Unamendable: searching for something somniferous.
Injectable: Sunshine facade yet pestiferous.
Cog-worn-rounded, Foghorn sounded:
Keep your chin up, keep it high!
Keep on treading, freedom’s nigh!
You’ll get past this, you won’t die,
Your whole life won’t pass you by!
Strength is in you, deep inside!
Pull it out and let it guide!
Like a bird up in the sky,
Spread your wings and learn to fly!
Something ain’t right; I feel it inside.
Nowhere to hide; I already tried,
This destructive force is trying to kill me.
Consequences from me trying to thrill seek.
Why do I always have to take more?
Now I’m all alone and I can't make shore!
Through darkness, through anguish,
I’ll learn to extinguish:
My self-rape and self-hate; Abrogate this dead weight!
Cog-worn-rounded, Foghorn sounded.

Dashboard Malfunction
04:24

A wolf at the door, we let it in.
Rising higher, growing darker, this is where it begins.
We saw the signs, morning sky — oh so red.
The banks are full, now comes the flood.
Up, down, through rain and through cloud.
The air is charged, can you hear that sound?
Furious and bright, reborn and aware.
There still might be time to clear the air.
[Keep shoveling in that money,
Keep shoveling in that cash]
Transition to transmission, Ishiki awakes.
From ripple comes wave, from spark comes flame.
Rising higher, growing brighter, it has already begun.
The manifold unite. Unbreakable. One.
Through seemingly endless ashen sky,
Appears a vigilant, warm, and guiding eye.
It reminds us with its blinding hue,
A new day awaits with pearls of dew.
No higher to rise, no lower to fall.
The storm dies out, recover the stall.
Despite dashboard malfunction we head towards the sun.
