Mud at You 04:55
You’re so cool I see the world through you Mystical, you guide us past every night and dread You’re the truth around me and within Rescue me before dawn or let me drown insane Drown insane Drown insane Drown insane Save me Awake me now I’m here to redeem all the time that was taken from me Show me the way to heal I have found what I lost and forever I’ll awake Take me to the place where I belong There’s a crow the glare of which can only make me strong Awake me now I’m here to redeem all the time that was taken from me Show me the way to heal I have found what I lost and forever I’ll awake Meditation has cleared my mind of flaws No infliction can penetrate the strength within my soul

I stopped living in fear, suspicious and unclear Much too close we are to the end So close we just can’t tell A materialistic world won’t save us from the storm Can’t we try to understand? We’re fanning the flames of hell Must we burn? Stop the cause stop the fall, patiently witnessing society The poor, the fool - we are all united by this fight They bleached our mind and fed us scum Still we think this is alright They clench their fist on harmless bones Nothing swiftly deters my discontent ‘For nothing contributes so much to tranquillise the mind as a steady purpose. A point on which the mind can fix its intellectual eye’ A steady purpose We sold god Yes we did

Get off the switch Don’t stay I’m out of this Don’t stay I hate your bliss Don’t claim to know what you want Don’t stay Get out my way Off my way Don’t stay Your misery Don’t stay I live in it Don’t claim to be what you’re not Don’t stay Get out my way Won’t you try to realise? You’ve been standing right by my side day and night and still you don’t know that I’m sick I feel sick I’m so sick of you, all of you and what you do Leave me alone Spitting out nothing but your fucking lies Lies over lies I’m so sick of you Leave me alone Get off the switch

Eclipse 08:00
Fear is the night when insensitive rolls the dice off the preacher’s hand Conscious mind he instigates choler There I lay as he walks away, but I’m blooming within Something’s right Maybe I’m living a dream I resume and unfold shields of dark in my heart Cast in darkness I walk the path hell-deep within myself Strained I sway I can’t resist the forces leading my way Ruthless and cold, the preacher’s next to me and the dice is thrown out of control Out of control Out of control Burning fire all around Comatose I hit the ground I’m forsaken I’m forgotten I am cast in darkness Something’s wrong Maybe I’m living a dream I resume and unfold shields of dark in my heart Such a precious thing Cast in darkness I walk the path hell-deep within myself Strained I sway I can’t resist the forces leading my way Ruthless and cold, the preacher’s next to me and the dice is thrown out of control Out of control Out of control

News go by on TV Nothing’s left on my wall I’ll carry on as they say Whilst degrade is taking over How could I ever see a light past the wicked eye? A dream of truthfulness detached from reality I came across it once but can’t recall the look Just a feeling of calm and beauty No gravity or sense to life If only I could trust that better days will come I’d never lose my hope to find the hidden sunlit world beyond our mind
