i knew it
he's an inuit
an eskimo intuit
he's intuit-if you're intuit too
he's into it three
and he lives in an igloo
he speaks to break the ice
what he said was very nice
his breathe is icy cold
you can see what you are told
his breathe comes out like smoke
when he spoke
its condensating
not condescending
his breathe is ending
and its sticking to the walls
and the walls are closing in
now we're starting to dig in
now we're starting to begin
the very thing thats keeping him alive
is the cause, the cause of his demise
all the caps are melting down
so he wears a furry gown
seal slippers too
he'll go clubbing with you

Ectoplasm

|

ectoplasm, egospasm
phantom secretion
fantaSea creature, you are!
and in the middle of the room
you could sense a certain sense of doom
you sat there glumly sulking
in a dim-lit wombish tomb
ectoplasm, egospasm
phantom secretion
fantaSea creature, you are!
it took a lifetime to destroy you
to employ you in the land of the dead
it took a longtime to explore you
now i implore you to get out of your head
ectoplasm, egospasm
phantom secretion
fantaSea creature, you are!
they made a movie of the sky/this guy
and we were starring, trailing by
we made a comet cameo
that's how we rode in the rodeo

the Astral Ancestral
04:27
|
|||
Manic the pranic atomic toils at the top of my lungs
trans(e)mitting diving daemonics from the tip of my tongue
merging with the skies harmonics to edify this song
the waking of the world has begun
I'm not crazy
i'm well-with-in-sane
at home in the universe
rehearse reverse
at home in the universe
inverse in verse
the universe is my pillOwe
it's where I rest my head
it's an expAnsive place to live
and sometimes I'm contracted to believe
i best believin' it a loan
(i best be leavin it alone)
((i best believe in it alone))
a tone atone
b1 b4 b1 b4
you've been one before
you'll be one once more
it won't be long
it won't belong
it won't belong to anyone
21 21 21 21
now is so here
of the past there is no trace
as we sculpt the future
out of time and into space
erase all boundaries and thought outline
line up
recline
line in
continue
let's begin what's already been
going on
no end to the endless
the beginning is gone

Virus
03:04
|
|||
The virus of separation
gradually took effect
at first
an energetic fluctuation
an ebb and a flow
an identical relation
where both are in the know
but when the word was spoken
relation was relayed
by a symbolical token
that duality displayed
poison in small doses
can function as a cure
so anecdotal antidotes
can strive to keep us pure
the hair of the dog that bit you
plucked from the goddess' tale
the bark of the tree of knowledge
put unity on sale
sticks and stones may break my bones
but words will make me ill
to illustrate my sickness
and liberate my will

Heartly There
03:20
|
|||
I see you there
these fleeting moments
lay your ambitions and potentials bare
in such a way that you're heartly there
the likes of you with love to spare
where i end, you begin
the mystery unmapped within
we ride is silence
in the present, tense
to melt down in water-worlds
a stagnant emotion
i see you sitting then, here and now
your eyes softly scanning the surroundings
timidly asking for permission to draw yourself from them
and I, withdrawn, inspect my expectations
I see you there
these fleeting moments
lay your ambitions and potentials bare
in such a way that you're heartly there
the likes of you with love to spare

Magic Words
04:37
|
|||
every word that is spoken
is a magical token
a gospel wishing well
a godspell:
cast creative incantation
(your creation)
a magical invocation
of manifest destiny
have you seen what you have heard?
have you heard the magic words?
abracadabra
as i speak so i create
and my speech loops figure 8s
figure-8-ively
abracadabra
the world is in
the verb is spin
the word is out:
the whirled world is spun
(the world, whirled, is pun)
when spoke out loud
the name is bond
(the) word is bond
i am a man of my word

This synesthetic aesthetic
is downright tele-pathetic
What's your language?
watch your language!
see what I'm saying?
see what is mean?
see what I'm seeing?
This is what you'll glean:
Sound 'n' sane
Soundin' sane
sound insane!
what is happening to it?
(elf chatter)
life is simple
light is symbols
to lie is sinful

rubberband
brother ban(ne)d
river bend time
bend time mend time spend time end time in time
to finalize infinity
unify the trinity
shine fourth our divinity!
In synch with the river
Dont sink in the river
Think like the river
sing with the river
with the dreamers and streamers
and the dreamers at the bottom
dreamer! streamer!
shhh... shhh... they're sleeping on the riverbed
wrapped their dreams in sleeping bags
to float downstream to sea, to dream
the dream is in the stream
and the dream is at the bottom
the dream is at the bottom
with the coral in the water
like son without a father
or a son without a mother
or a sister or a brother
the dreamers are asleep
and they're waking up each other
and they're opening their eyes
to the earth and the skies
and they're opening their eyes
to the earth in disguise
the stream is passing over
with streamers striving further
they're moving to the ocean
with their infinite devotion
for the rapid fractal motions
and they're casting their spells
they're drinking magic potions
where they're going they can't tell
but their bodies are in motion
and their bodies are an ocean
an ocean in motion
a ocean, emotion
a notion, emotion
emotional notions
the dreamers are asleep
they're gazing in the deep
at the bottom of the ground
when theres no one else around
They drown the finite of their soul
to view the mind as a whole
they drown the finite of their soul
to view the mind as a hole
dreamers streaming with the mind at the bottom
dreaming the stream
with the mind
at the bottom
