Blown
And everyone needs security
Or at least some continuity
By pushing back the limits
we maybe went too far
now we’ll never get back again
connections are missing
synaptic fuses blown
You might think I’m weak and pathetic
Because sometimes I can’t get out the door
I used to think we made our own prisons
But now I’m not so sure
And we thought we’d live forever
Now it’s a struggle to get through the day
Masters of communication
Rubbing soil into our wounds/

Your Obedient Servants
It starts with the suppression of feelings
Spontaneity slowly eroded
By the condescending lies
Told by parents everywhere
Taught how to feel how to react
Who you like and who you hate
To always wear a f***ing false smile or you’ll never get anywhere
We remain your obedient servants
We remain your obedient servants
We remain your obedient servants
We remain your obedient servants
At school they try to fill you facts
Anything to stop you thinking
What’s the use of this information?
The ultimate aim - a television game show
Now don’t ever think about your death
Smile and laugh and always be nice
It’s all to prepare you ...
For the commercialisation of friendliness
We remain your obedient servants
We remain your obedient servants
We remain your obedient servants
We remain your obedient servants
The word emotional now means unbalanced
And truth has become relative
We think we’re free in our democracy
Not slaves to an invisible authority
Freedom of expression only counts
Freedom of expression only counts
Freedom of expression only counts
...If we’ve our own thoughts to express
We remain...(c)2003
Pattern Death - co-written with Del Alien
My old mum’s a ley line…
Born from patterns we can’t see, we grew from nineteen numbers
On the holden crowd, the turin shroud… Dangerous pull of swirls… of consciousness
Make believe or maybelene, Christopher Columbus, the father of genocide
And still they laugh with their stupid brains force fed on lies within lies within the smallest eyes.
Everyone and anything can change… anything…
Everything is nothing because nothing does exist
To understand nothing does exist is the point we can’t resist
To deviate this point we say nothing for you to understand
now nothing has become something now you understand
When you’re clear you see the patterns
Patterns within patterns, society is the disease
I red you blue these colours in my head, you said
“I preach” and “sanity is stupid” burn the constant
ever fearing burn.
We all waste ourselves. We all waste ourselves.
Everything is nothing because nothing does exist
To understand nothing does exist is the point we can’t resist
To this point we say nothing for you to understand
now nothing has become something now you understand
And every day they try and put the light out
And all we want to do is make our music
I don’t know how much longer I can take this
Either we succeed or we die trying
When the choices are gone from the death swirl
Fading veins and brains and citizen kanes
Idealist surrealist my brain your brain
It goes SUB and a JECT and finally TIVE
Have you seen the finals? Do you know what you hate and why you hate it?
This ain’t no run it’s not for fun it’s you
you get this then you’re fixed
go out over and over again, no stop then… you’ve gone too far
Too. Too. 2. 2. V2 2 32 = 8/4 = 11 2^1 = Gone too far….
SO STOP
