[Noon]

Anticipate and evaluate
What he thought
And what I thought before

Dark place is your place
I take dark drive to your place
You're staring me
You're staring with your inside eyes

Knowing you, knowing me
We're deeply sorry
You're broken maybe

 

[Evee]

I know that she will live forever
She won't ever die
And she goes
And now she knows that she'll never be afraid
To watch the morning paper blow
Into a hole where no one can escape
Dee dee dee dee dee dee

 

[KitchenFly]

Way down there it's raining dust
And snakes police the roads
And a truck weighed down with misery stops and unloads
And 18 broken passengers, their blood as thick as mud
Beg for water, for anything the driver waves good luck

The sun's been frying lizards hidden under rocks
And now it fries the refugees and turns their brains to chalk
Eighteen men and women and one brand new pair of shoes
And the driver's back at the border, what's he got to lose

The night wind screams across the freezing ground
There's no one left to tremble or to fear for him now
Their bones are scattered drifting like the snow
That falls each night and settles all around his soul
All around his soul

 

[Dr Mobius]

I have so many of them though. Sometimes I listen to a particular verse over and over. So cathartic

Running through the fire, running through the flame,
running through the hatred, pushing through the blame,
running through the hopelessness and shame,
revolution already underway.

 

[Pionart]

While we may believe
our world - our reality
to be that is - is but one
manifestation of the essence

Other planes lie beyond the reach
of normal sense and common roads
But they are no less real
than what we see or touch or feel

Denied by the blind church
'cause these are not the words of God
- the same God that burnt the
knowing

 

[Flâneuse]

So needy of comfort but too raw to be embraced
Undo this privacy and put me in my place

 

[Starry]

Quando sei lontana
Io sogno all'orizzonte
e mancan le parole.
E io si lo so che sei con me.
Tu mia luna tu sei qui con me
Mio sole tu sei qui con me

It's Decoration Day
And I've a mind to roll a stone on his grave
But what would he say
"Keeping me down, boy, won't keep me away"

It's Decoration Day
And I knew the Hill Boys would put us away
But my Daddy wasn't afraid
He said "We'll fight till the last Lawson's last living day"

I never knew how it all got started
A problem with Holland before we were born
And I don't know the name of that boy we tied down
And beat till he just couldn't walk anymore
But I know the caliber in Daddy's chest
And I know what Holland Hill drives
The state let him go, but I guess it was best
Cause nobody needs all us Lawsons alive

Daddy said one of the boys had come by
The Lumber Man's favorite son
He said, "Beat him real good but don't dare let him die
And if you see Holland Hill, run"
Now I said, "they ain't give us trouble no more
That we ain't brought down on ourselves"
But a chain on my back and my ear to the floor
And I'll send all the Hill Boys to hell

It's Decoration Day
And I've got a family in Mobile Bay
And they've never seen my Daddy's grave
But that don't bother me, it ain't marked anyway
Cause I got dead brothers in Lauderdale south
And I got dead brothers in east Tennessee
My Daddy got shot right in front of his house
He had no one to fall on but me

It's Decoration Day
And I've got a mind to go spit on his grave
If I was a Hill, I'd have put him away
And I'd fight till the last Lawson's last living day
I'd fight till the last Lawson's last living day
I'd fight till the last Lawson's last living day

 

[Julius_Van_Der_Beak]

When you punish a person for dreaming his dreams, don't expect him to thank or forgive you.

 

[Evee]

Saw it written and I saw it say
Pink moon is on its way
And none of you stand so tall
Pink moon gonna get ye all

 

[Julius_Van_Der_Beak]

The evidence before the court is
Incontrovertible, there's no need for
The jury to retire.
In all my years of judging
I have never heard before
Of someone more deserving
Of the full penalty of law.
The way you made them suffer,
Your exquisite wife and mother,
Fills me with the urge to defecate!

Since, my friend, you have revealed your
Deepest fear,
I sentence you to be exposed before
Your peers.
Tear down the wall!

 

[EJCC]

In Heaven His throne is made of gold
The ark of his Testament is stowed
A throne from which I'm told
All history does unfold
Down here it's made of wood and wire
And my body is on fire
And God is never far away

Into the mercy seat I climb
My head is shaved, my head is wired
And like a moth that tries
To enter the bright eye
So I go shuffling out of life
Just to hide in death awhile
And anyway I never lied

And the mercy seat is waiting
And I think my head is burning
And in a way I'm yearning
To be done with all this weighing of the truth
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth
And anyway I told the truth
And I'm not afraid to die

 

[violett]

Even through the darkest phase
Be it thick or thin
Always someone marches brave
Here beneath my skin

 

[Evee]

One billion angels come and hold her down
They could hold her down until she shines

 

[Evee]

I’ve seen your face in every place that I’ll be goin’
I read your words like black hungry birds read every song
Rise and fall
Spin and call
And my name
Is carnival

Sad music in the night
Sings a scream of light out of chorus
And voices you might hear appear and disappear
In the forest
Short and tall throw the ball
And my name is carnival

Strings of yellow tears
Drip from black wire fears
In the meadow
And their white halos spin
With an anger that is thin
And turns to sorrow
King of all
Hear me call
Hear my name
Carnival

Here there is no law
But the arcade’s penny claw
Hanging empty
The painted laughing smile
And the turning of the style
Do not envy
And the small
Can steal the ball
To touch the face
Of carnival

The fat woman frowns
At screaming frightened clowns
That move enchanted
And a shadow lie and waits
Outside your iron gates
With one wish granted
Colours fall
Throw the ball
Play the game
Of carnival

Without a thought of size
You come to hypnotize
The danger
The world that comes apart
Has no single heart
When life is stranger
Wheel and call
Clawed dreams all
In the name
Of carnival

Wheel and call
Clawed dreams all
In the name
Of carnival

 

[Evee]

So many layers covering up what's deep inside
Doesn't keep it hidden from my sight
You're afraid I'll see there's nothing there
But there is

 

[Julius_Van_Der_Beak]

We have constructed pyramids in honor of our escaping.
This is the land where the Pharoah died.

 

[Qlip]

...

Love imposes impossible tasks
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Though not more than any heart asks.
And I must know she's true love of mine

 

[Julius_Van_Der_Beak]

I might look like Robert Ford, but I feel just like a Jesse James.

 

[Julius_Van_Der_Beak]

Well, you wonder why I always dress in black
Why you never see bright colors on my back
And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone
Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on

I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down
Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town
I wear it for the prisoner who is long paid for his crime
But is there because he's a victim of the times
