I have to make it to the desert by sundown It’s eighteen as the crow flies, I gotta walk thirty-five miles I have to make it to the desert by sundown Before my mind goes numb and blind I have to make it to the desert by sundown Before this change completely takes over me Something wrong is happening As my blood, turns from blue to black. I have to make it to the desert by sundown To give my life to the last light I have to make it to the desert by sundown Or I wont be the only one that this evil takes I have to make it to the desert by sundown But my legs are growing weak and my back is growing wings Something wrong is happening As my blood, turns from blue to black.

Ceremony 02:37
All here at last, we are ready for the ceremony. We light the flame and the goat is slain. We grind the bones, we sing the songs. We release you from your sleep.

I live my life, no end in sight. Through ageless time, always alive. Immortal being, I’m cursed to be, Always alive! Always alive! I want to die, refresh my mind. And like flower, let time devour. Immortal being, I’m cursed to be, Always alive! Always alive!

Cells separate and rearrange. Atoms decay and elements change. Energy processed but nothing is lost. It’s just hanging around, radiating. Particle wave show me the way. Show me the way particle wave. When I observe, you act strange. How does my gaze make you change? Matter defined, become a ripple in time. Be my sage and take me to your state. Particle wave show me the way. Show me the way particle wave.

Anybody 03:09
Woke up to a boom and stepped into the house, “Did you hear that sound?” Anybody… Walking through the hallways, opening the doors, looking around for Anybody… There’s nobody in here, guess I’ll check outside. Looking for a neighbor Anybody… There’s nobody out here, no one’s in their cars, and there are no helicopters There’s nobody… Something’s really weird here, oh gee this is strange – I was in my room, I heard a boom now There’s nobody… There’s no birds up in the sky, no squirrels in the trees, I’m digging in the dirt for worms but There’s nobody… No remains, no trace. All erased. I’m alone with the truth that There’s nobody…

I found a piece of volcanic glass It will be a perfect piece for my mask. I found it deep in a hidden valley So far from any recorded past. I found a piece of volcanic glass It will be a perfect piece for my mask I found a piece of volcanic glass It will be a perfect piece for my mask. I’ll place it between some of the eyeholes Below the elk tooth I found last fall. I found a piece of volcanic glass It will be a perfect piece for my mask.

Stand in a circle, a circle of stone Under the echo of sun off the moon Long is the night, but the moment arrives Feel this heart race, one final time… As I leave my body and enter another The change comes on quickly, like passing of weather I sever the tether my old form collapses And now on four legs I will run to the passes That exit this desert and head for the mountains Through hills and through forest up to meadows alpine And I will climb up to the summit And I will climb into the sky.

Charger 01:02
My body gets older My mind gets slower But my legs they’ll keep walking Till my feet are broken and my knees are shot.

Shot down in the year 2482 Crash-landed on unknown planet Beaming this message back to you. I’m lost out in space alone Ten light-years away from home Deep in the forbidden zone Hoping this message reaches you. Last log of the ship Poseidon I’ve reached my event horizon Now under this distant sun I’ll die an alien. Gravity drive meltdown, outskirts of Black Hole ∆ A.I. detects a beacon coming from local system. I hear an odd transmission – faint, but it sounds like my voice. I need a clearer signal, set course for source of transmit. Isolate broadcast date, anomaly detected Signal sent 2482, nearly fourteen years distant. I hear an odd transmission – faint, but it sounds like my voice. Captain’s log 2469: this is the ship Poseidon. Shot down in the year 2482 Crash-landed on unknown planet Beaming this message back to you. I’m lost out in space alone Ten light-years away from home Deep in the forbidden zone Hoping this message reaches you. Last log of the ship Poseidon I’ve reached my event horizon Now under this distant sun I’ll die an alien.

Decompression is necessary to avoid Rupture of capillaries When returning from the void. Decompression is necessary to control Contact with unknown life Out in the void. We want to know how you came to the void, We want to know what you saw in the void, We want to know how you felt in the void, Cause no one before has come back from the void. One day while dreaming, I saw the void And when I awoke, I was called by the void I followed a sense it took me to the void When I went through that is where I met you.

Wander On 02:55
Though I don’t know what the purpose of my being is I wander on until I find a reason and when I don’t I wander on and try to have as best a time as I can before I am gone. Though I never found a reason for my being I have found that to have fun is purpose enough for me to feel Fulfilled in this life and happy to go on to the next one I wander on.

Evaporation 03:51
Evaporation, morning sun is shining Perfect mass of molecules divide Drops of silver hanging in suspension Waiting for the day to take them away I was there feeling just the same. Evaporation, morning sun is shining At this moment everything seems to rhyme Fate it came that day with expert timing I was sitting there as it came by Spotted and with such an elegant stride.

Ebb & Flow 04:29
We came together, like vapor becoming a cloud We fell together, like rain on the mountainside And as we rolled down the rocks With love to bind, we held together as a drop. When we reached the dried up creek We started the flow, we started to float Pick up speed, go downstream. Oh, we both know that any good flow Will get out of control and we’ll lose ahold So in the still before the brink I start to scream… We’re at a calm place in the river But were heading for the torrent my friend We’re at a calm place in the river But were heading for the torrent my friend We’re at a calm place in the river But were heading for the torrent my friend Hope at the bottom I’ll find you. Oh but it’s life, oh so it ebbs and flows. Oh tidal life, you make me realize That with my low comes a high Oh but it’s life, oh so it ebbs and flows. Oh tidal life, cyclically you’ll bring me back to where I feel happy at But oh for a while, I’ll have to forgo a smile. Oh but it’s life, oh so it ebbs and flows.
