Eternal Afternoon (live at Naunynritze)

Bend us to your goals
We’re made to serve your word
Craving your control
We’re play dough for your soul

Terraform your cosmic maiden
her surface is your plate
Galvanize and clear thy neighbor
indulge in atmosphere

Guess what makes us all stay up all night

Trapped inside her weightless chamber
your excavated grave
bioluminescent creatures illuminate the way

Guess what makes us all stay up all night

Rumination, rumination
Pushing your circadian rhythm out of line
Rumination, rumination
As you trace the silhouette across your cornea

She keeps us in a mason jar with some holes poked to breathe
Builds herself a pedestal and ask us not to kneel
Tucked in underneath your tongue she bleeds into your speech
At the pouring of the waterfall still gushing in your ear

Feels like I’m going nocturnal again

Play Dough

The divine and the earth
Reunite before your nose

Geese won’t shut up
Bugs crawling out
Goat go berserk
Snakes waking up
And the world begins to tremble
as it sheds another hide

Come into the inferno

It forms a running stream as
innards gush out
a waterfall of molten rocks
eating all in its path

creatures ossify
live a second life
embalmed by surprise
lest they burn alive

and the world returns to slumber
its coagulated eye
leaving those who didn’t crumble
new fertile ground to try

Come into the inferno

Volcanology

Routine procedure
These are most favorable terms
We shall deliver
All that you dream of shall be yours

There’s no mistaking
You are the one we’re looking for
This sworn allegiance
Shall bring great fortune down the line

Pearl white, silver and gold
Yes, we all read your file
Well you needn’t be so quiet

You shall appease us
as your contractually obliged
There is this craving just a pound of flesh can satisfy

In time
World wide infamy
Yes, we all read your file
Well you needn’t be so quiet

Words don’t mean a thing to me
I need your full name in blood at the bottom page
I got my whole arsenal of lawyers here
all working so tirelessly to secure this case
I got my whole system wide held disbelief 
at your own ability to assess critique 
it's not on your terms
from here on out

How could that be misunderstood?

Don’t fuck it up this time

Fine Print

We control everything you know
we’re your…

We observe every thought and urge
we’re your…

Your thoughts and desires
are ours to provide

We control everything you know
we’re your….

Your thoughts and desires
belong to the depths of our silicon towers
to fuel our predictive powers
to build a world where all is ours
where we know everything about you
we know everything about you
we know everything about you

We Control

I’m chasing trees, trying to get lost
and I’m starting to believe I
I’m eating leaves, I’m running wild
Shed my skin against the peat moss

Don’t fall asleep, this time around
Though it seems to be relieving
Forget to breathe, your eyes are clouds
and your mouth is out of season

A breath explodes in mine
a mist surrounding serendipity

Forget to breathe this time around
you’re seeing the new world
climb up to me, you’re barking at
The ceiling mirror sees you

A breath explodes in mine
a mist surrounding serendipity

Serendipity

You’re watering it down with comedy
Built yourself a wall from within
You try to understand, but you’re faltering
Don’t pry inside my head

You can’t back out now, you’re in too deep
Locked yourself in a box and swallowed the key
You try to understand but you’re faltering

You keep on weeding us out, but we don’t even feel it
You keep on weeding us out, entirely
Don’t pry inside my head

The tides are all turning on you
you don’t notice how it feels
like you don’t know, you don’t know

Leave me be

Inside My Head

Underneath the surface of your fingertips
the carbonated skin leaves you bare
Trying to avoid the hypotheticals
‘cause you let them all run their course

Hear me now, let me speak before the crowd
got no things to say just need the limelight
Night or day makes no difference no more
it's just a pale gray, restless eve

Powerless as you scream into the void
as you mark the motions one last time
Violins hidden deep inside the walls
come to serenade your demise

Quietly, not quite expecting to be heard
you announce yourself to the world
Woke up sore… I must have chewed on some glass
as I swallowed this city whole

Powerless as you scream into the void
you run through the motions one last time
Violins hidden deep inside the walls
come to serenade your demise

Idiosyncrasies

Caught myself daydreaming I could float
as a sun kissed particle of dust
in the slow eternal afternoon
suspended in a brownian motion blur

Just keep on swirling slowly ‘cross the fishbone floor
and let's stir up mesocyclones
we got our competition tucked up in our sleeves
as long the sun keeps shining on

But in due time we all shall be released

Now leave it up to me to set these plans into commotion
courtesy of those who can wait
we are but particularities, flavors of primordial soup

But in due time, as our stories intertwine
We shall conjure all those secrets divine

Where we found our way
Where we found our way
Where we found our way
Where we found our way

Eternal Afternoon

A game of pinball to teach humility
as I hit the bumper car, I laugh in disbelief
back at the Chichen Itza playing unreal tournaments
What if all these creatures are me in different shapes?

Startled by my exhalation I accept
as I curl up for the hibernated embrace

Mosaics in playful tessellation
The figment of our incantations

Accept this offering, dear features of my brain
The empty space for us to confer in

Mosaics in playful tessellation
The figment of our incantations

Hibernated Embrace

A few decades ago, there were no red grapefruits.
The Ruby Red grapefruit, which now accounts for 75% of all grapefruit is the poster child of an experimental form of agriculture known as atomic gardening which uses radioactive cobalt-60 to spur mutations in plants.

The practice gained popularity after WWII as part of the Atoms for Peace program, establishing Gamma Gardens in the worlds nuclear states.

The radioactive source was placed in the middle with plants laid out like slices of a pie, exposing them to varying amounts of radiation.

Closest to the center, the plants would just die, and slightly further out they would grow tumors and other abnormalities, but around the edges a rich variety of mutations would develop, which would be selected for desirable traits and cultivated further.

For a brief period in the 50's and 60's, atomic gardening was quite popular, especially in the UK, where the Atomic Gardening Society would distribute radiated seeds for laymen farmers to grow and report back the results.

Despite the initial hype, the Atomic Gardening Society failed to produce anything of particular interest and as nuclear energy grew increasingly disfavorable in the public eye, atomic gardening became a lot less cool.
