Lyrics by Gregory Howe

She sits with her big brown bad at the airport lobby gate
Make up disguises her heavy eyes hide the hard choices she's made
Like a deep dark sea she's got secrets buried underneath 
and it's complicated
It's separated, feels unrelated, so she's casting off

All made up but leaving early; late for fate, she's feeling dirty
Pushed and falling off she's moving on

Reclines with a glass of wine in the airplane's business class
Keeps thinking, she's through repeating the habits she's formed in the past

All dressed up, she's leaving early, posing as the times all vary
Trying not to seem ordinary; consequences are all scary
Cast illusions out and bury, slightly used and feeling wary
Pushed and falling off she's moving on

She lands in the Austin sun where it's 105 in the standing shade
Throws her guitar into an empty car, thinking in this heat that nothing saves
With no hesitation, without reservation, it's self-preservation she's carrying now
Given all that's happened, she'll never go back

Lyrics by Gregory Howe:

It doesn’t happen all that often 
The signs are hard to recognize
But slowly everything starts moving
Much to their anger and surprise

I wish that I could just fast forward
To better times that wait ahead
While I’m here mired in this resistance
Of tearing out this broken fence, 
Post, bracket, and barbed wire ‘cause

One too many times
We’ve relied on prevailing patterns 
Yeah they hold the cards right now
It’s not the way it’s going to be
Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na na not the way it's gonna happen 
Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na na gonna end up.

Nelson, Havel, Fela , and Ghandi                        	
All incarcerated for their beliefs 			
Went on to be leaders in their countries		
Brought the aggressors to their knees	     
Broke brackets and barbed wire cause

One too many times
We’ve relied on this failing fulcrum 
Yeah they make the laws right now
It’s not the way it’s going to be
Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na na not the way it’s happen 
Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na na not the way it’s gonna end up

To those falsely incarcerated
You will be in time be vindicated           

To those falsely incarcerated
You will be in time be vindicated

Lyrics by Gregory Howe

Growing up on Camano Island
Must have resembled an asylum
When you take into account 
All the things that he saw as a child
How can they blame him being all messed up
Scared and wild

And want to fly away from everything that’s bringing him down
And when he’s in the air he’s sure, 
The problems always coming down

Barefoot Backwoods Backpack Survivalist 
Never having anyone to trust makes everyone else seem suspect
So he bounced, tent living in the Forest
But by winter he’d Break and Enter
Vacation homes For food the shelter
(Bear bace and night vision glasses)

And learn to fly away from everything that’s bringing him down in
And when he’s in the air, he’s sure the problem’s always coming down
Landing on the ground

Learned to fly on a flight simulator 
Read manuals and masqueraded, started breaking into airports
Flip the switch looked over all the gages
Start the engine, Push the toggle
On the runway hit the throttle), 

And learn to fly away from everything that’s boxing him in
And when he makes a million dollars he just gives it back to them
Gives it all away 
All that was stolen

Finally downed in the Bay of Harbor Island 
On a stolen speedboat with no shoes on, extradited back to trial 
Flew all the way to the Bahamas 
and never landed in the process

39 foot prints through a hundred houses

We’ll C’ya C’ya later 
So we’re gonna C’ya   C’ya  Later
We’ll C’ya C’ya later!

Lyrics by Gregory Howe:

She can't go home again
couch surfing with some friends
she's using, choosing to fill the empty place within
She came from straight a's, teenage escapades
Turned to charades and degradates and masquerades

Yeah this is your life
Yeah this is your life
Yeah this is your life and it's just life and it's yours alone to live

Yeah this is your life
This is your life
Yeah this is your life and it's just life and it's yours alone to live

Shopping closets turn into halfway houses
Somehow the space to fill just keeps on getting louder
So many roads lead out to abuse
The pattern gets old until the needle renews

Gone for so many years, friends' support disappears
N.A. Meetings repeating the same first day every time
This cycle's no way out, no way to stop herself
So she's at risk, and helpless, and restless, and reckless, regardless

Cause this is your life, yeah this is your life
Yeah this is your life, and it's just life, and it's yours alone to live
Yeah this is your life, yeah it's your life
Yeah this is your life and it's just life and it's yours alone to live

Your Life - Neomythics - Projectiles

Lyrics by Gregory Howe:

Climbing Out Young Blood Overtakes the Old Guard
Commence Resistance	

Young blood is coming up
Old guard is dying off 
Polish is wearing out
Turning to illusion

The whole thing is over
The whole thing comes crashing around you
The ceiling is cracking
Shaking, you reach our arms on through

We’ll come climbing out of the underground
And like zombies we’ll overwhelm

The last scene is over, 
An old scene comes crashing around us
The ceiling is cracking
Laughing you reach our arms on through

But it’s hard to tell when all the pieces fell
When you pick them up and then spin them round  
Finding broken lines form new shapes in time
 
The old scene is over
A new scene is flashing around you
The ceiling is cracking and laughing
We reach your arms through

Bridge 2:
But it’s hard to tell how all the pieces fell
So you pick them up and then dust them off
Matching broken lines we’re forming shapes in time

Because 
You know you’ll have a better hold the next time round
You’ve seen how movements echo all around this town
And some insighted reach will suddenly confound
It always draws a crowd when everything is falling down

The whole scene is over, 
And the new scene comes crashing around you
The ceiling is cracking
Imagining you reach our arms

Lyrics by Gregory Howe:

Watching the wheel that never stops
I see the seconds pull the clock
Waiting patient click and pause
Three more seconds till the drop

Within the calm before the storm 
a trepid wind hovers forlorn
Inching forward steadfast warned
surface tension tightly formed

Fall to feathers in a day dream
where I am at the climax witnessing
The surreal opposite of what I'm seeing
Until this reflections splits into fractions
And I'm hanging on the second hand and slipping

As the ripples stay unchanged
between absence we are sustained
Waiting patient click and pause
three more seconds till the drop

Lyrics by Gregory Howe:

Folks selling time-shares in Kansas silos
And every movie's the end of our world
It's this obsession with Armageddon
Gathering rations stockpiling weapons

Cause they be bugging and bugging out
Yeah they be bugging, see for yourself
Yeah they be digging, digging in the ground
Yes they be digging and it do confound

Why is the holy land always at war?
When will the Gods repel their walls?
Judgment come and cause disaster
Waiting patiently for the rapture

Night Vision goggles black Danner boots
Respirators and Hazmat suits
Fresh water supply. Surefire flashlight
Food for ten years, dry-packed and freeze-dried
Cause we be digging and digging in the ground
Yeah we gone dig in, 'till we're upside down
Yeah we be buggin, bug buggin out
Eh we be bugging, leaving no doubt

You Got to Hide, Your Supply
Move To The Side. Get Potassium Iodide.

They point at Katrina. The Super-Dome.
DHS and FEMA. Invading homes.
They Took the Civil out of Ization
It must have seemed just like Revelations

Now they be bugging and buggin out
Yeah they be bugging, leaving no doubt
That we be saving food on the shelves
Yeah we be saving. Saving Ourselves.

Lyrics by Gregory Howe:

Started looking closer,
but no answer came to me
Nothing really seemed to add up
to the reported story

We see Yesterday's Hero (Michael Hastings)
burned to death in an automobile
Why does it come as no surprise
that it wasn't recognized as crime?

I go and get my coffee and I
read the paper till nine
Casually aware of the
events shaping our time

and we see today's heroes
diving into gears of the machine
Why does it come as no surprise that
their sacrifice goes unrecognized

And we see tomorrow's hero (Edward Snowden)
behind the glow of his computer screen
Keyboard trained warrior
leading a cause to liberate and free

Tomorrow's Hero - Neomythics - More Protection

Lyrics by Gregory Howe

Short sighted, facts divided
Contracts issued and decided
Though all surely will be blighted
Enter in the uninvited

And in their big rigs
They have invested
Green lighted
Inside, untested 
Cloaking toxic as trade secret
All those have been defeated

So go ahead and shoot it down
Feel the pressure building up
Pump more in and drill it out
Pretty soon this thing will bust

Feel the pressure building up
Pump more in and drill it out
Pretty Soon this thing will burst
This Ground will crack

And so the target, many say
Are the shale deposits of Monterey
Fifteen Billion Barrels is enough stake
To destroy our water and cause earthquakes
