Who designed the faultlines? Who designed the faultlines of my mind?  

Faultlines

A Flower, a Seed..coming up from the ground...

The Power We Need

This is a song I recorded quickly as a demo less than a week before the big Earthquake in Japan in March 2011. So at that time, I did not feel comfortable working on it anymore. Now that some time has passed, I listened to it again, and I think maybe it may have been a decent idea and even have some potential.

If there are any other musicians out there who would like to help me make a better version (hopefully with better vocals / rapping) please don't be shy to contact me....

Here are the lyrics: 

Who designed the fault lines, the fault lines? 
Who designed the fault lines, the fault lines 
of my mind? 

I think thoughts 
like flies fly 
To lift so swift,
What's built: 
up in the mind's eye,
in the sky.
Like Asia...but don't drift.
And have the fault lines shift 
Dammit - planet
why the violent nature?
When most people
Aren't hateful 
or evil 
But try to be who 
they see
when they sift 
through the fault lines 
of their minds - 
and prevent an eruption, or corruption - 
or sudden destruction, 
but in this discussion 
does our planet agree?
With the worst plagues 
and disease, 
earthquakes,
tsunamis.
Volcanoes 
they say go
Along with the faultlines, 
but we stay though. 

Like california or japan 
Both on beautiful land 
Destinations where oceans meets sand
Where high populations became highly planned
Spread out from the middle of the earth
From the cradle of man  
Thoughts on the cutting-edge 
Of the oceans
and Society.
From Akihabara 
to Hollywood Variety
Silicon valley 
to the alleys
In Tokyo and Nara 
Making technology 
That shapes the world that we live in  tomorrow.
But can the world shake us off? 
Like we shake off a cough? 
Or any stray thought 
that might make us go off?
We're a marvel of nature
Mother earth should be proud -  
But when we say it too loud
To stand out from the crowd
it puts up a cloud,
over her other
marvels of nature.
Does it make her
want to grab an erasure?
But even if nature doesn't hate you
It's selfish to have a death wish -
And there's less debate that we do
What ever you think or don't think is true
But before we destroy ourselves, 
Let's employ ourselves
to NOT let religion or greed 
or culture or creed
take us all out together, and
smash this world forever.
We got the strength to we need
Once we no longer bleed...
To get off of this rock top speed. 

Fuck Race
