One too many times Troubled signs Shaking lose watery ears, cryptics echo demise Suffer pretty sins Subdivides Ever Re: repeat we heard was just merely mirage On my phone all day Apathy’s drugs ca vrai Rain pooling in the driveway Waiting On my phone all day Had so much more to say Rain pooling in the driveway Waiting for something to blow me away I’ll be on my phone all day I’ll be on my phone all day Deafening warning preceding high frequency ring Compassion’s chime Undermined Leave us a message we’ll save us when we’ve got the time On my phone all day Had so much more to say Rain pooling in the driveway I’ll be on my phone all day Waiting for something to blow me away

Panic on my Twitter feed Lights out on every city street Moon’s up but it just can’t compete In a sky with too many suns Each one brighter than the other one Drifting slowly towards oblivion What have they done Fuck fuck fuck it has begun Air electric, hair standing one by one Kiss me quickly, melancholy one It’s a sky with too many suns Each one brighter than the other one Drifting slowly towards oblivion What have they done And when I think back it’s like a dream In soft emerald green I’m hypnotized but fall back in line Overwhelmed with grief, weaponized I’m terrified As we vaporize Don’t close your eyes It’s a It’s a It’s a sky with too many suns Each one brighter than the other one Drifting slowly towards oblivion What have they done What have they done What have they done What have they done

Time is a joker And as you get older Laughs at the age you’ll never see Time is a joker And as you get older Laughs at the age you’ll never see Isn’t there suppose to be A little more for you and me? Isn’t there a little more Before we step beyond the door? Caught in a slipstream And don’t it feel fine Living a wet dream The illusion of time But where’s the punchline Time is a joker And as you get older Laughs at the age you’ll never see

I’ll take all your money Steal your self control Make you feel real funny touch a lot of souls I’ll feed from the system Squeeze another stone Automate the process leave a pile of bones Take me as I am Trillion Dollar Man All that you are, all you see Couldn’t hold a candle to me Does it serve my purpose Manipulate your goal Can you just say “fuck it” cause it’s Rock n Roll? Take me as I am Trillion Dollar Man Take me as I am Trillion Dollar Man All that you are, all you see Couldn’t hold a candle to me All that you are, all you see Couldn’t hold a candle to me

Here comes that sound Sailors and suitors are out on the town It’s only timbal good coke and some Crown Shouldn’t take an upbeat to bring you downtown Merry Go ‘Round Into the ground Meticulously wound Here comes that frown Traitors and looters mistake lost and founds Estonia Symbols, conspiracy bound Couldn’t shake a downpour so might as well drown Merry Go ‘Round Into the ground Meticulously wound

Latch onto me A little bit will make you feel free Catch and release By order of the secret police Nothing I can see and all I hear The ringing of the bells on St. Joseph Square Curfew’s 5pm Tune-in, Feel Free with me Stomping of the feet Televised defeat Never show I’m weak Listen when they speak Trust what you read A little taste of rinse and repeat Nothing I can see and all I hear The howling beasts unleashed on St. Joseph Square Curfews 4pm Tune in, Feel Free Nothing I can see and all I hear Smoke yer lunch kids they’re burning St Joesph Square Curfews 3pm Sign in, Feel Free with me I’m the one to meet They’re the one to beat Stomping of the feet Televised defeat Never show I’m weak Listen when they speak

Please pass Mashed or gratin Wild smile and bones I’m rotten Table side in case you’ve forgotten My eyes Still got em Stacked deck I pull from the bottom Fact check you all ad nauseum Found myself lost in the sauce another stoves pot Cold shoulders, neck, back, cross bone strollers Found myself lost in the sauce, another good god no, stove toucher Hot shots let me simmer Peace and I’ll feel ready Holding on make me feel steady Peace and I’ll be ready One time Brand new strands ripping apart with every seven rotations New file replications Hand spun strands gripping to start some other levin formations Perma-smile mutations Peace and I’ll feel ready Holding on make me feel steady Peace and I’ll be ready Skeletons at the feast Watching us while we eat Never felt complete Peace and I’ll feel ready Holding on make me feel steady Peace and I’ll be ready Two times

Golden One 04:48
In the shadow of the moon In the temple of the Golden One In the faces of the doomed In a Sky with Too Many Suns Walls, temple ornate with gold Steps to the grave All the humble now pray “Wake, Golden One” Bowls, stoked in ritual smoke Summons the dead Mystic mumbling with dread “Wake, Golden One” No one comes. Moan, chatter in breezes blown Resurrect the Golden One Shields and blades and Eyes to the throne Shown, you and I like seeds are sown Resurrect the Golden One Shields and blades and eyes to the stone No one comes. Moan, chatter in breezes blown Resurrect the Golden One Shields and blades and Eyes to the throne Shown, you and I like seeds are sown Resurrect the Golden One Shields and blades and eyes to the stone

It ain’t fine to seeing you going so soon It ain’t fine to see you moving to the moon Leaving us awake to contemplate another day without a way to bounce it off you now, I just keep it to myself When you told me you were dying I said there must be something we can do I couldn’t see the message you were leaving me until your fight was though Giving ins the strongest thing that you could ever do I can see you passing Chico On your way to Frisco Lake Got your sights on something further Up the road a little ways Jetset Johnny I don’t feel like you are gone Just a Jetset to someplace the likes I’ve never known All these lives we live within this world there’s still so much we’ll never see I sense a stinging realization coming over me I can see you leaving Portland On your way to Frisco Bay Got your sites on something further Down the road a little ways Jetset Johnny

Mother mother, I’ve become the moon Father father, sun of midnight (totality soon) Stars Madonna, cacophony jewels Luna luna, I’ve become you (whispered in sonnets, given in promise) Girl with a lion’s heart Refusing to play the part Nights spent in beau regard Wave with a broken arm Melting mountains, worshiping your moves Held by Gaia, timing titans (cradled by giants) Stars Madonna, cacophony jewels Mother mother, I’ve been under (ascending by bending, never relenting) So rise unstoppable one Native to none like a distant sun Rain on every blade Casting it’s shade on your shoulder weight Bending oceans my love Meddle the mud in to ancient sludge Float forever above This is the gist of where we come from Girl with a lion’s heart Refusing to play the part Night’s spent in beau regard Wave with a broken arm
