We're All Dead

I can’t see the future with the light in my eyes
I don’t want to be there when the sun doesn’t rise
I don’t want the gleam to reflect an old man
Please end my pain when my life starts to wane
Time, time, time is stalking us
Find, find, find the eternal bus
Go, go, to your place of rest
Slow, slow, ‘till your dying breath
We’re all dead
Their youth starts to fade and the timbers grow cold
I see it in their eyes as the story is told
The fire in their eyes dims as life screams by
I don’t want to be there when it’s my time to die
Time, time, time it never slows
Old, old, old we only grow
Death, death, death defines us all
It’s our destiny to fall
We’re all dead

The Deep Regime

So now it’s come to this?
One last and final kiss
‘Till ‘morrow’s shallow gloom
Sinks low into the tomb
And if we die tonight
Everything’ll be alright
Just follow now my call
And into shadows fall
And I want you
To remember me there standing
At your altar
Where you lied to me
And when we fade to rust
Amid the savage dust
I’ll still be holding true
To suffer death for you
That winding road, in shadow
It leads to sapphire scenes
You squeeze and slip away
To join the deep regime
And where now lies my heart?
And self-imposing art?
Six deep in dirt and green
Lost in the deep regime

Fields of Summerland

When we were seventeen
And making love was our routine
You left a drop of you in me
That grew into a shoreless sea
Love lost yet still remains
In tangled brush and gentle rains
To me you’ll always be
My everlasting summer dream
Everywhere all I see
Is what is and what will never be
But behind my eyes
There’s eternal sunshine
‘Till the day I fade away
My thoughts of you will still remain
As we walk now, hand in hand
Through the fields of Summerland

Superhero Zero

You hold my head underwater, I’m drowned
Davy Jones’ locker walker
Just a bottom crawler
And you’ve got me shaken, now
Baby, spellbound
Sing your siren song
And run my ship right into the ground
But maybe, I’m found
You save me somehow
Baby, right now
And around and around and a
You knock me off of my throne, de-crowned
Just a superhero zero without any power
And you spin me into your web, I’m wound
Open up and take another little bite
Clamp down
You save me somehow, baby
I’ve found
Like a superhero
Zeroed on my final hour
And you bring me right down into the sound
Of an echo hidden within all these walls around

Take Me to Your Leader

Isn’t it strange when you’re home on the range
But it seems like you’re miles away?
Before I was born I was happy and warm
But then was thrown into the fray
And then it occurred to me that
People are not what they seem to be
Life killed my dreams of a future grand
And it occurred to me
That I’m a stranger in a strange land
I’ll never again have a moment of Zen
The idiocy’s just too loud
All these carbon emissions
And fake politicians
It’s hard to stand out from the crowd
And then it occurred to me that
We as people can never really be free
So I said, “Fuck it” and I joined a band
And it occurred to me
That I’m a stranger in a strange land
And then it occurred to me that
People are not what they seem to be
This world stabs my jugular gland
And as I die
I die a …

Stephen Hawking is Wrong

Something’s in the sky, don't think it's an airplane
Streaking through the sky
Coming down like scarlet rain
Maybe it's a meteor, maybe Hubble lost his way
Or maybe everyone on earth
Just moved down on the food chain
And everywhere a UFO
And I don't know which way to go
But I know that point of light that's devouring the night
Didn't come here just to say, "Hello!"
Something hit the ground
Felt just like an earthquake
Whatever's in my backyard didn’t have an air brake
With a shaking hand and a racing heart I step out to that crater's edge
I can't believe, I can't conceive what's down in that wreckage
And everywhere a UFO
And I’m not sure which way is home
But I know that creepy thing with the 17 wings
Didn't come here just to say, "Hello!"
Long way from home
Countless stars I've roamed
Only to end up here
On this churning, hate-filled sphere
I should've been been terrified
Could’ve grabbed my shotgun
But I reflected in its eyes
I saw I was the violent one
It stared at me and I at it
The time it seemed to ebb and flow
When suddenly it smiled and said,
"Welcome! Howdy! Hi! Hello!"
And everywhere a UFO
And I hope they all make it home
'Cause I know that point of light that was devouring the night
Only came here just to say, "Hello!"

Unsinkable

You know our love is invincible
Don’t go and do the unthinkable
This flood may seem somewhat biblical
But you know our love is unsinkable
Yeah, unsinkable
Just keep your eyes on the breaker line
Don’t fight the current, it’s a waste of time
I know it's cold when it’s murky grey
But don’t sink the sacrifice we've made
When we’re a team we’re unstoppable
Two minus one is improbable
And when this world’s at its most critical
We’ll forever and always be unsinkable

Endless Autumn

Autumn winds blow down the street
To the place where spirits meet
Where shutters hang on twisted hinge
And memories like fire singe
Autumn leaves fall from the trees
Stirring slowly in the breeze
Windows shake and floorboards groan
Telling tales of blood and bone
Autumn rains come sweeping in
To wash away the spirit’s sin
Beating softly on the glass
As shadows gather for a mass
Autumn moon dreams in the dark
Waiting for the world to spark
They call to me in an auburn haze
Telling tales of simpler days
Autumn winds
Autumn leaves
Autumn rains
Autumn moon

Well Met By Witchlight
06:25

In 1692 I fell in love with you
With just a single glance you held me in a trance
We met at midnight there and whispered silent prayers
Beneath the crimson moon I gave my life to you
I see, I believe and I grieve
'Cause the devil lies in you
But I’ll try to arrive in time
To see the other side with you
In 1693 they took your love from me
Under a withered oak they hanged you from a rope
I crept into your tomb, into that silent gloom
To say a sad goodbye
And that’s when you replied
In 1694 we evened up the score
We gave them all a taste and lay the town to waste
Once you were safe from harm you fell into my arms
And kissed me one last time then closed your eyes and died
