LYRICS:

At any moment on any day
A little friction can wipe us all away
In times of trouble, in times of strife
Spare no expense 'cause the price is human life
They come to conquer like they were God's own hand
And set the world ablaze to seize a little land

And everything going down is nothing but disaster
And transgressions of humanity
And everything taking shape is nothing short of wrongful
And crimes that echo in the pages of history

At any moment on any day
The clock strikes midnight and all goes down in flames
To meet ambition with vile atrocity
And piss on notions of all diplomacy
And all hell rains down, the wolf is at your door
Hope no one sees what you're compensating for

And everything going down is nothing but disaster
And transgressions of humanity
And everything taking shape is nothing short of wrongful
And crimes that echo in the pages of history

You want it, you got it
You have upset the balance
You want it, you got it
The world is in a bind
It's all just self defense
We've heard that lie before
A brain dead juggernaut
You're not the only one
You want it, you got it
You got the whole world watching
You want it, you got it
Looks like you've gone insane
Affront to everyone
To your own people too
One minute to midnight
It's all because of you

Minute To Midnight

C÷M performing Journey's End live at St. Augustine’s Arts & Events Centre, Brighton 6th May 2022) as part of the show "From Where? To Here" 
(see https://craigwinstanley.online/from-where-to-here/ for further information). For a review of the show, see https://thegmreviewer.wordpress.com/2021/09/18/c-div-m-from-where-to-here/

The voice hasn't recorded brilliantly, but you can hear the saxophonic and flautistic journey of Jon Ogara (@allopenelectrics), who is M to my C...

When time weighs heavy in a distant place
When bygone memories swarm diminished space
When the past’s trodden path dwarfs the future’s trail
When what once shone bright, flickers drawn and pale
When the sweetest taste yields a bitter hue
When all’s grown tired that sparkled new
When you reach in vain for neglected friends
Thoughts turn to journey’s end

Journey's End (by C÷M , recorded live in Brighton)

You darkness from which I come
I love you more than the flame,
that bounds the world
in that it shines
for some circle,
out of which no being knows of it.

But the darkness holds everything to itself:
shapes and flames, beasts and myself,
as it seizes them,
men and powers -

And it may be that a great power
stirs in my neighbourhood.

I believe in nights

..........................................................................

Du Dunkelheit, aus der ich stamme
ich liebe dich mehr als die Flamme,
welche die Welt begrenzt,
indem sie glänzt
für irgend einen Kreis,
aus dem heraus kein Wesen von ihr weiß.

Aber die Dunkelheit hält alles an sich:
Gestalten und Flammen, Tiere und mich,
wie sie's errafft,
Menschen und Mächte –

Und es kann sein: eine große Kraft
rührt sich in meiner Nachbarschaft.

Ich glaube an Nächte.

LYRICS:

Do you ever want to
try and hide?
Or maybe die
by suicide?

That's me in there
inside your soul
On which I feed
create the holes

I deplete you
of energy
Your homicidal
thoughts come from me

I'm in your homes
I fill your jails
Replace your dreams
with constant fails

You try to kill me
But become addicted
You're not to blame
that you're afflicted

Religious books
they often tell
Of squalid places
Akin to hell

But they never ever
Mention me
The deconstructor
of all sanity

I am reborn
with every life
To walk beside you
And cause you strife

You'll spend your days
as you will see
to try your best
to get rid of me

I was created
to be unkind
I'm the decay
Inside your mind

I am your world
The one you see
When nothing's left
You're stuck with me

Now I'm your god
I reign supreme
A morbid sickness
I am unclean

I suck you dry
of joy and pride
I'm all you need
I'm a hellish ride

For just a tincture
You'll sell your soul
Returns diminished
You're at death's door

I know
I know
Every word you have to say
Every thought inside your head
Everywhere you're going to go
Everything you're going to do
I'm inside your mind

LYRICS:

I can't recall the countless times
I stood back to watch the world fall down
There's nothing here worth fighting for
So we fly away
Into the endless reaches
Like there's something there to greet us
Signal it's okay
What a glorious day
A little faith is fractured
As we rise upon the rapture
Of the just and pure
But we rest assured
There's no path left to follow
If you walk the straight and narrow
For a million miles
Of tests and trials
They drop like flies behind us
But we keep an eye in focus
On the finish line
It'll be sublime
To cross the gates to promise
There's a scourge that's set upon us
To bring us down

Think of something, search for mercy
Think of something, search for mercy

Another day, a spoken truth
I look down and watch the ends come loose
We don't know what we're running to
Don't know what to do
Reality untethers
And we cross the edge together
As we fall in line
Looking to the sky
In search for something better
Yeah I want to live forever
Do it my own way
Hoping for that day
Like refugees we're running
Cause the end of days is coming
Or so they say
On their knees they pray
And plead unto the heavens
With their faith their only weapon
As it's coming down
And it meets the ground
Tribulations coming
And the face of earth is crumbling
All by design
Since the dawn of time
We're all gonna die
