Who are you…
Who are you…
Who are you…
Who are you…?
Know Thyself
Spin the wheel
Clear the Field
Let Love come down.
Who are you…

Who are you…
Who are you…?

Angel Of The Dying Self
03:35
|

When I open the Bible
Will I read about Love?
Prophesy, It gets the best of me.
Says there’s an Angel among us ~
She walks with a limp.
Keep your eyes open cause she’ll be coming in.
She’s as beautiful as a movie star.
But things are not as Hollywood as we think they are.
Godspeed to you.
God speaks
to you.
Oh the Angel flies over the house without blood on the door
Sees a boy ~ doesn’t wanna be a boy no more.
And the mother is feeding him sunshine with her fingers.
Wailing “My world, My world My world”
Whatcha doin to me?
Whatcha doing to me?
And the Angels sing ~
You can be anything you want to be.
You can be anything you want to be.
I hope you forgive me for running away.
I promise I’ll return to you some other day { no no no no }.
This is not a mistake { no no no no }.
And things aren’t as dark as they seem.
But I need to be everything I’m supposed to be.
You can be anything you want to be.

I’m sorry for what I said.
I’m sorry for what I did.
You know that I did try to hurt you
and really that’s the worst part of it.
I do not have an excuse
It just comes down to this ~
Maybe it’s a glorified
depiction of a homicide.
You think you’re using only words
Then you look into his eyes
And you’re standing on the blood that’s dried
of the others ~
Who once were Lovers
And became Monsters.
Well I’m a monster trying to be a lover.
Just like a fallen King
I’ve hidden all my golden rings.
But I refuse to melt down my crown it still means too much to me.
But I would give it all to you.
You'd know exactly what to do.
You’d likely say that this is all a big distraction
And the facts are that these things are killing me.
Chorus
Maybe I’m an amplified
confuser who’s unqualified
To behave like the normals do
But I would stop the world for you
And protect you from the worn disguise
of the others ~
Who once were lovers
And became Monsters
Well I’m a monster trying to be a lover.
Maybe it’s alright that I’m a monster..
Maybe it’s alright that I’m a monster..
Maybe it’s alright that I’m a monster..
Maybe it’s alright Maybe it’s alright Maybe it’s alright
Maybe…
Maybe it’s a glorified
depiction of a homicide.
You think you’re using only words
Then you look into his eyes
And you’re standing on the blood that’s dried
of the others
Who once were Lovers
And became Monsters.
Well I’m a Monster
Trying to be a Lover.

I want to begin again
Have it all, have it all, have it all.
{ Oh Mary take a deep breath. Hold my hand take a deep breath. }
This sudden burst of life is a welcome thing
But it cannot be everything
It will go away.
And this golden light
Will turn bright white
And in a flash it all will
Fade to black.
And we’ll walk on the water
We will fly in the sky.
We were born to a mother
Who is still standing by.

Thanks for showing me around here.
It’s got everything one would need to stay alive.
It’s got sunlight and water and flora and fauna
And enough
Time.
Thanks for coming to my aid.
You’ve got everything I’m missing.
Strength!
And the way you soar like an eagle through the pines ~
Let’s build a nest in the pines.
In the pines.
And when the moon is full
If by accident I should turn into a wolf ~
Don’t get too close. Don't get too close.
I couldn’t believe what I was seeing
My reflection in the stream it was
Horrifying!
When I saw blood on my teeth
Much worse than Narcissus.
And I kept hunting and eating and hunting and eating
Oh creatures who just want to be free.
Oh creatures who just want to be free.
Oh creatures who just want to be free.
Free.
Free.
And when the moon is full
If by accident I should turn into a wolf ~
Don’t get too close. Don't get too close.
But you are my kindred beast
We both know what we need to
Stay Alive.
Alive!
So please let’s live side-by-side deep into the woods until the end of our time.
So please let’s live side-by-side deep into the woods until the end of our time.
So please let’s live side-by-side deep into the woods until the end of our time.
You are my eagle in the pines.
You are my eagle in the pines.
And when the moon is full
If by accident I should turn into a wolf ~
Don’t get too close. Don't get too close.

Tragedy
03:58
|
|||
I saw everything you did, I couldn’t believe my eyes, I said,
‘Woah this guy’s got something crazy going on’.
I wished that you had changed your mind
before you acted so unkind
to all of those innocents.
And on the front page of the paper
everybody’s doing favors
for all the wrong guys.
And over on page two they said
‘There’s a meteor hurtling towards you’.
Better open your eyes.
You’re going to be surprised...
Chorus
Cause there’s a hole in the sky.
Things are suffocating in this heat.
There’s a rip in the curtain
And the temple’s going to crumble
Into the sea.
It’s a tragedy.
{ Thought I had it all figured out. Thought I could maneuver my way through. Thought if I had a enough necklaces, enough dope, they’d show me the ropes, and I’d be haute couture soon.
But they disconnected my light, and my body grows tired. And I’m having an awakening
and it’s ending tonight baby, b’ bye baby, b’ bye }
Chorus
Cause there’s a hole in the sky.
Things are suffocating in this heat.
There’s a rip in the curtain
And the temple’s going to crumble
Into the sea.
Chorus
Cause there’s a hole in the sky.

And the temple’s going to crumble

There’s a fox in your lap
he wants to lick your face.
He wants to bite your hand
and show you how it’s done
In the Animal Kingdom.
Oooo Ooo Ooo Ooo Oooo Ooo Oooooo.
So you found someone
to solve for X in your equation.
Don’t fall so easily
for another man’s persuasion.
For the Oracle is You
You’ll always know what to do.
It’s time to call upon something higher
It’s time to call upon something higher
It’s time to call upon something higher
It’s time to call upon something higher
It’s time to call upon something higher
It’s time to call upon something high.
Lift your eyes up to the darkening sky.
Elpis reaches down, she’ll dry your eyes.
Forget about everything you’ve ever known.
Salvation will come to you through her hope.
In your sacred solitude
You’ll know exactly what to do.
There’s a fox in your lap
he wants to lick your face.
He wants to bite your hand
We’ll show him how it’s done
In the Animal Kingdom.

Silently/Violently
05:21
|

Nearer my God to thee I sing.
I’ve got to tell someone what is happening.
This hole in my heart is gettin’ bigger by the hour
And I can’t find a cure in the stems or the petals
of this poisonous flower they keep trying to
Shove
Down
My Throat.
Oh. Oh. Oh. my Soul
Why’d they put you here
If you weren’t supposed to make a sound?
Your Love hides quiet neath a shroud
While weapons fire underground
And do their killing
Silently
Violently.
There was a child born beneath the trees
She was born to be free.
With Jupiter risin’ in God’s new horizon,
She runs through the night gathering
Stars and
Light
Singing
Oh. Oh. Oh. my Soul
Why’d they put you here
If you weren’t supposed to make a sound?
Your Love lies dying neath a shroud
While weapons fire underground
And do their killing
Silently
Violently.
I said I would do
I said I would do
Anything
For You……

Portal
04:28
|

I need a doorway
Some kinda portal
I’ve been looking for way out
For such a long time.
To the forest
Is where I’m going
Going to gather everything I need
To stay on my toes.
But the light is fading fast {Oooo}
And the ground is cold and damp {Life}
The crows won’t be cawing
Again until it’s morning.
Hope help comes soon.
I march just like a good soldier in my heavy shoes.
Carrying out the chief’s orders there’s so much to do.
I’m going to break down.
I’m going to explode.
I need a doorway
Some kind of portal.
And to the forest
Is where I’m going.

Olivia Lumen is a very brave woman.
She lives in the woods with her husband.
He is a mechanic.
He fixes broken things.
Olivia Lumen
{ her son has gone away }
She does not cry
{ washes clothes night and day }
She feeds the goats
{ they’re children don’t you see }
and names the crows
{ Liv, Charlie, Josephine }.
And yeah, it’s been awhile
and sure the memories subside some
Victory would be to hide from
any thought of you.
But the scientists have shown
the truth of a black hole
will swallow all the light around it
until we don’t exist.
Until we don’t exist no
Until we don’t exist.
Now in the evening
{ it can’t hurt forever }
a fire is glowing.
{ it can’t hurt forever }
She’ll make him supper
{ they will hurt together }
and play their records.
{ it might hurt forever }
Chorus
And yeah, it’s been awhile
and sure, the memories subside some
Victory would be to hide from
any thought of you.
But the scientists have shown
the truth of a black hole
will swallow all the light around it
until we don’t exist.
Until we don’t exist no
until we don’t exist.
And in the end we’ll see
Just why we have to leave.
Our victory will be to sing
In spite of all that’s gone....
