Chasing Ghosts of the matches that I've played with so quick to make an entrance so quick to burn cautiously place yourself in your surroundings what you consume you surely will become or try to hide away
I am merely breathing
Waiting for night to guide my intuitions
Cover me, underneath the surface I'm not really anything after all I keep falling by the wayside but I'm in heaven
You've got to be out of your fucking head; that's what you wanted that's what you're getting. You're going to be found good and solitary they've got a place for you you lucky lunatic
And so I make a motion and feel I've crossed an ocean
I am merely breathing
Waiting for night to guide my intuitions
My mind is getting clouded, why don't you go clear your head. This room is pretty crowded, I think the ceilings closing in. And as we somewhere around the features of the Earth, and though we stub our toes we’re in pursuit of truth.
A reason for this reasoning Machinery a way of contemplating this Infinity
I am merely breathing.

Structure, built alchemical. A shadow of the singular, just as Heaven reflects the Earth a mound of Miracles to offer - a mind as deep as any water timid I approach the other and I show her what I brought her, it's a world inside another, surely a miracle
Out of Mister Rogers Neighborhood a ruckus. consult a guide or blind your eyes on a Magic Carpet Ride from Walgreens aisles good golden Atlas came from a dream of mine; said to come again when I can stay a little longer, and stick around for Mister Rogers.
And so we ride the buttock of Babylon into orgasm. Breathe deeply be free my lover.
And as of the sun would set so streaks my subconscious into copper coloured waning sky and the deepening blue of the night, and as the Sun would rise I’ll awake in your eyes into golden morning light as I shrug away the night.
When faced with death my ego stands and shouts into an empty place I know that this is all there is and ever was. He hoped the world might come together if taken in and Torn to Pieces and fit into the shape of something better.
And as of the sun would set so streaks my subconscious into copper coloured waning sky and the deepening blue of the night, and as the Sun would rise I’ll awake in your eyes into golden morning light as I shrug away the night.
To all lower high mammals I utter a remark - to hold your head higher your spine will be straightened, your wallowing days in the mud sink far behind you. Your brains grow in size and might make you some money.

This Tribe an Ocean

Hold your breath, this time we're going under I made motions in the sea that contradict the path I'm swimming
Broke the flow, create another pattern. And on and on it goes the river bends and another corner.
Sometimes I find myself being pulled into the water, for every hand that comes to save me 10 more would hold me under. And so you said you'd seek to calm your appetites and fall into an ocean that's a void of null excuses.
You may know me well but you don't know me that well I can do this by myself I'm alive and well
Somebody help me I'm drifting away
What did you think I was some kind of yogic David Blaine my heartbeat gone? I'm diving in to be with you. Well I'm only human, I can't help my flaws. To reach and touch it all at once - to give up control.
Decentralized net of nerves functioning without need of brain, heart or lungs
You may know me well but you don't know me that well I can do this by myself - I'm alive and well.
I might know this well, I can't do this by myself. Somewhere along the line I've undermined this tribe I'm born inside.

As One Watches the Rain

Out, Breath of Eden, Emanate
Out into the world, separate
The Sun forces into me, nutrients,
change the color of my skin over years of mutilation,
engineer of heritage
Down comes the hammer
onto threaded iron breaks
construct a hierarchy upon hierarchy,
under gaze of the watchers.
Goodbye old times, goodbye sunshine
Goodbye old times, so long sober mind.
I am my own preacher
of the catechism of the mind
where lies the chief power?
The question, human imperative
We ends become means
our between beginnings
between our ends, between our ends
Out rolls the thunder, struck on cold steel rail
In Gold, In Wood, In Fire
Encased in alabaster
As One Watches the Rain...
Goodbye, Goodbye, So long...
Make it Subtle In the Rain, Two Gods in the Rain.
Out, out in a whisper...
As One Watches Rain, Come Edify me
Life is so damn simple if we let it be.

Here I am in simple form,
a malady of mockery
strictly entertainment,
make the most of grief cause it's you or me.
Out among the crowd i can't tell what is real,
I've lost myself lost my way in separation.
You make me feel like whatever, God, whatever brings me home.
Ain't this the life? No?
Doesn't it scare you? Now?
This all means nothing at all.
I lost my head in the crowd, no more sense could wear me down
I'm worth my weight in arrogance, the gnash of teeth against what was said:
You make me feel like whatever, God, whatever makes me whole.

Everyone in Ohio is a Ghost,
Maybe they don't realize that's what they are,
so seeds they sow. In hopes to Grow,
So strive your day away,
does it really make your life any better?
A motive mockery of what they used to be, they were.
Lots of Sordid Repetition, Make a movement towards decision
and fall short of it,
When you've nothing left to lose or gain
why not face your disposition?
Lots of sordid repetition, Soon our luck has got to change.
Find a man who's got a vision, and put a halo on him.
Hold My heart, I know It's a bleeding one, but a beating one.
All I love, I chose to be, Cause this to resemble me.
How is a man like a spirit?
Well, if man's an ape, to apes to mimic, to mimics to mock,
to mock's to gin, and gins a spirit.
We're so tired of waiting. My glass ceiling shattered from the stars I'm anticipating.
Call this pattern static while we wither, while we wander
It could be that we may be nothing, if that's any relief at all.
This worlds in you, a point of view. Oh, what beauty can mean.
If this world is make believe then I can make myself believe most anything.
All I love I chose to be, cause this holy symbol to resemble me
All I fear, All fades away; and I hope that you'll remember me this way.
Lots of sordid repetition, make a movement towards decision.

They say I can sleep when I'm dead, well I'm going out of town tonight,
and there's no sleep to be found tonight.
Ask Ray Moody
Do we meet our father when we leave our mother? Do we meet our brothers, or another?
I'm coming home today, numb to all the pain
It's OK, I leave it where I lay.
I'm looking at the sky, I think I see a light.
Please be gentle, I've been waiting.
I'm starting to forget, but I believe I've made a bet
that I wouldn't be around forever, and I fear I was correct.
It's a final chance, a life review to see what this brain has done for you
before it's time to return it.
I feel that I've learned everything and there's nothing to do with it,
I guess I'd better get used to it.
I better get used it it.
I'm coming home today, numb to all the pain
It's OK I leave it where I lay,
I just dreamt through all my life in a single night.
Soon I'll be waking, life is waiting, life is waiting.

Novelty

Modernity, tremendously alienating instrumentality
Instead insist on novelty
Ask if I will
And everytime I answer I will
And every time I'd answer my will
And every time the answer's my will
Everything that we could see or be is built on empathy not entropy, better not mistake them.
And how I feel the woe of you,
I love you
You killed a man are you not satisfied
You killed the earth are you not satisfied
You banned dried herbs that would fix your state of mind
and face the evil that has grown inside
What's the harm in holding on to Magick? To ghouls and ghosts and holy hosts, the comic and the tragic
Everything that we could see or be is built on empathy.
Everything that we could see or be.
Prenez cela comme roman ou comme histoire, qu’importe, pourvu que votre curiosité soit, satisfaite. (Solve et Coagula)
So now just relax
and feel the base of your spine
picture a white light
moving up through your hips
connect it with your breath
and feel it pump with your heart
and now we vocalize it
a sound between your eyes
a crown of thorns on your mind
and now just relax

So glad to have discovered this great band. Heard first on the Thought Radio show last week. Great melodies over powerful Prog Rock with many beautiful moments. This is something special. I am getting a bit of a Rush type vibe but much more also. What an album this is and I will need to get the CD also. Too many great tracks to chose a best one yet.
