The Royal We
04:16

Shake and rattle as we stack the gold
And revel with glee
Not for nothing, we will always grow
And do as we please
We've led men straight to their grave
But we feel no blame
We feign glow and masquerade
But we show no shame
Prey and dine while our worries wane from wine
What's yours is mine
No denying we befit the throne
It's our destiny
So we're smiling in our golden homes
A grand place to be
Our minds are fine they ossify
In cycles of greed
Save the divine, all ebbs with time
So how will you plea?
Complacency is futile in the fade
Everyone jump down a hole
Few can see this and the rest they are remiss
These days indifference gets really old
Prey and dine while our worries wane from wine
What's yours is mine

Hazy Malaise

I am reeling
Rumbling inside
Cracking ceiling
A mouth to the sky
You get the feeling that you know
But just then it starts to go
I am reeling
Rumbling awry
Fissure feeling
That's loose in my mind
Caving in, out of my head
Leaning in
And I try so hard
But I can't understand
What it is, what is done
What it is, I am numb

There are days where I don't find you so pleasing
I'll say anything just to hide for a while
And there are lies from which I cannot simply run
Away, the rising tide will not abate
Eat it all inside of my four walls
Cosmos and all inside of my four walls
Escape it all outside of these walls
There I go contrasting myself with another
I laugh in the face of my dismay
Remember your roots when you're destitute,
they'll be all you have
When everything has washed away
Eat it all inside of my four walls
Cosmos and all inside of my four walls
Realize it all outside of these walls

(Sluice Your Mind)
03:20
|
|

I've got an inkling that what you know is sinking into dust
A thorough crushing, the current comes in flushing all it must
Cold catharsis rings you and it brings a moment of bliss
So come on down here underground and come see what you've missed
Cuz you know that it's inside
Where death and change sluice your mind
Only clutching sure ain't loving you've got to really be
All this vying while everyone keeps lying through their teeth
Everything you see you must believe will come to an end
But what you do is up to you so let us not pretend
Feeling numbness straight to your heart
Saying you know nothing is just the start
Knowing you are nothing now you can depart
Cuz you know that it takes time
To feel the change, sluice your mind
Thinking only of your bind
Limits all pleasures you find

Lake of Light
04:48
|

Quiet minds will run the gauntlet
While smaller men get forced to bend
The wind it stirs, still we all taunt it
Let it go and then you'll know
At turns, you feel alive
It churns, your guts untie
So free, the feeling's right
Inside the lake of light
Wading out the water's shining
There's nothing for you on the shore
Your body hurts cuz you're still pining
The zephyr blows and now you know
Let it go and freely flow
At turns, you feel alive
It churns, your guts untie
So free, the feeling's right
I heave a heavy sigh
You steal yourself to lie
Inside the lake of light
Inside

Wavy Pictures

When I watched it all unfold I just searched for meaning
Having such a solid mold, still you shape my being
I saunter through the trees, all the time I feel you there with me
On a plane where nothing's told, it's you I'm seeing
Wavy pictures show me what I'm missing
There is no glare
Your presence fills the air I'm shivering
You're everywhere
The rain is pouring as we walk, but I can't help but smile
The world has crawled inside my socks and it's pretty vile
I look on back and no one's there, but it's just then that I feel your stare
Time's been ticking on the clock, but I'm not in denial
Wavy pictures show me all that I need
Man if you'd ask
All the things I thought that were behind me
Come through the past
Now
When I feel it weighing down
I retreat in myself
Undulate out of your ground
If only for a spell
Oh this glee it comes and goes
I find a way to love
Myself and all the ones
That show me that they know

Blood Filled Skull
05:01
|
|

When I find it all hard to swallow
I take a day and follow
The beat of the void
Then I walk in a place to thrilling
Where everything's strange I'm living
In spite of the noise
Feeling all that I can
Reaching out, extending my hand
Either way it seems I'm floating at my feet
Either way it seems you're drifting, will we soon meet?
Got a feeling you won't try with my eyes
I know my blood-filled skull is ceasing
One could worry or want but it's easing
To relinquish to time
Hearing the natural hum from your mind
For my unending friend I will find
A reason to climb
Inside, straight through your ear
To keep a head on what is real
Either way the world is shifting, you're not what you think
Either way you've got to listen, you'll miss if you blink
Saying how these things they should be but, to some it's just cant
Can you tell the Sun when to rise, no you can't

Blue Basin
04:31

We see our dreams
In red and green
But in the grand scheme
They're all blue
A wailing tone
That calls you home
Is it better to keep
Your sheen eyes wide shut?
The flora there
And misty air
Can never compare
To what we've made
So I'll stay in
The blue basin
Only then I'll feel
The real truth
