Skin Tsunami 04:55
lyrics

anticipation builds; turmoil pours like acid rain olive in arrival; bodies dissolve under purple skies of mans final daylight depleting corpses run triumphantly forming a delta of fluids; draining rapidly into the sewer system below, beneath under the streets poorly lit domiciles; house few survivors packed in vienna sausages; juice of those caught in the rains above burning floods; flood the caverns with magmatic gas black lava anaconda surges through the earth and thesurface belches fire; sulfur wind cyclone hydrochloric hurricanes smear the country side as shores succumb to the skin tsunami the oncoming tempest shifts the horizon the earth folds in the oncoming tempest shifts the horizon the earth folds in the earth sinks into abyss of steaming basalt more lands will form as masses pull together her despair will be short lived as her epidermis is swept clean the surface to peace; bring us back to mortality miniature memories frozen in time a place to look back on where few shall ever go; the biggest story ever told to be remembered through the mouths, through the mouths of those left behind; under rocks and in the mountain tops they will rejoin again; asking her for one more chance wormholes through time; magnetic sanctuary guards a small clan eight sides erected forging a fortress for future fertilization civilized with no civilization her despair will be short lived as her epidermis is swept clean the surface to peace; bring us back to mortality miniature memories frozen in time a place to look back on anticipation builds; turmoil pours like acid rain olive in arrival bodies dissolve under purple skies of mans final day

Like an artist's rendering of a kaleidoscopic massacre this painted picture unreal the expansion of my psyche deep below me dementia drove me cannibalistic intent survival my eternal solitude can never be proven insane unconfirmed who will deny their organs as sublime their rationed lifeless suspend frozen in the ominous vacuum of space an ever shrinking cinder orb of weakening molten madness holds still in the backdrop i am but the only one waiting on the critical arrival for the essentials i need to calibrate my decent into the red eye of the storm this will be one wild ride better strap in tight put my feet to the stars where is the horizon? in all its glory the red eye now pulls me in an ever growing storm of tidal chaos helium bursts and hydrogen shifts to let me in, let me in their rationed lifeless suspend frozen in the ominous vacuum of space where is the horizon my altitude is still to high my angle of approach still to steep my controls have failed me boosters sputtering gravity now holds me wrenching on my existence incomprehensible consequence for my good nature poisoned by the unfortunate coincidence of my situation we are an aging race filled with greed you in the MIR your fate has been sealed no means can defend this world space party...

That One Night On the Mountain 05:10
lyrics
download
it was raining that night; so I prayed for a clearing the drive took forever we; we must face we must change we must conquer the world all hands must meet bitch bicker and moan is all she ever does all this madness day and night; churns these very scars I cant wait to get out of here; to my other home seems the only friends I have are the lonely stars the sky calls to me I worship her; I disgust her my space and spouse I’ll come to you tonight my love to view your deep black sea the knife calls to me and I run what if we never find the truth never escape the possibilities relentless; she is I rip her flesh; twist her neck; and bury her flimsy corpse under the old oak tree rip her flesh; twist her neck; and bury her flimsy corpse astronomy destination to the mountain over the bay the cold empty the sky cleared up as the moon stood tall my choices optical, ultra violet, x-ray and infrared this is perfect I declared I’ll be able to view it all my choices optical, ultra violet, x- ray and infrared the sky cleared up; the moon stood tall my choices optical, ultra violet, x-ray and infrared the sky cleared up fire up the computers; I need to see her fire the gears and the gadgets I set the scope to the most splendid part of her; a sight to see the ant nebula deep in the chamber of horrors but what is this I’ve beheld I spoke in aghast by god could it be a new discovery at last not a planet; nor a star but an object ever so fast the urge to kill consumes my every thought is that steel; is that diamond is that; is that your doom

The Spaniard 04:53
lyrics
download
My name is Ponce their ships will sting and This didn't happen just once. Since July of Fifteen Hundred Twenty One My life has been but a television rerun. The Fountain of Youth Exists. The Walls of eight persist Inside the chamber of time protects from the chlorides of lime. The fluid causes divinity The Machine creates Infinity I must try again. I stand before you today, lonely People stare and people laugh, yet I am the only human alive that can save you all. No one is listening once more I try to warn them; I tried to warn you of the war The Loop of life lights my infancy The scientists will come once more Try Again. No one is listening once more I try to warn them of the war Every single time I fail. to stop this debacle. pray for the encore Beg for the encore Pray That fluid is now my curse That Fountain is a Scourge The Apparatus is Shielded, Sitting there ever so pretty. i must struggle and refrain because if I don’t I'll try, try again I yell I plead I beg I Bleed For this fight that we can never win That fluid is now my curse That fountain is a scourge The apparatus is shielded Sitting there ever so pretty I must struggle I'll try, try try, again I'll try, try try, again

terrorizing our dreams the ones we had before the world died surrender these worms slither through my brain the medulla encased in this fluid alien to our cortex thought control takes hold did you hear about the beings of different microbiology coming about their skin is the color of crimson did you hear about the micro organism cell take over reconstruction synapses nerve highway reroute the information run for your lives their here with their lasers run to the hills autonomic nervous system overload, overload time to remember what it was like before we came before we descended upon your brains what we've discovered only savage things the sick and the weak ruling allow capture of the sick and the weak allow capture of the sick and the weak save yourselves, we refuse arise and fight, Spanish man show yourself, you've plagued this world with ignorance we offer you your destiny this night does rise you have a choice to carry on, don't choose to be indifferent we offer you your destiny the elite being now rise

Bermuda Octagon 04:23
lyrics
download
we are the planet that brings you to your knees we are the one desirable disease an octagon shaped facility in the bermuda triangle where the worlds governments meet unique magnetic properties offer safety from the aliens titanium blaster weapons use the alien weapons hold them to your shoulder tight point and blast to freedom melt the walls join the horde and lead the war against the other walls point and blast to free them melt the octagon moonstalk of cable; lunar elevator that transports us to and from the earth to the moon via the earths center of gravity above geostationary orbit we access the terminal upon the surface to further further our attack we are safe (in these shapes) isle protects our lives (in these shapes) holds the key (once again) to our home vast fields shift and the rock of planet splits in two divided now by a bright piercing light color virgin to visiting eyes a tremendous shift in gravity take hold and hold tight take hold and hold tight; this may be our final flight deeper inside our movement unnoticeable, no creatures, no life the walls all white spewing clouds of odorless gas hazy clouds of shadows overcome weaker gasps and grasps, grips loosen a slow slip off the edge; the edge of consciousness the edge of all consciousness deafening roars, varmint of war are back a cold planet hurling through the dark matter of space
