1. Chinese Whispers
Speaking my mind, Single trail of thought. Difference in the way we perceive. Your inability to receive. I know you listen, faults lie between us. You hear me speaking, something changes my words. Chorus Hordes of inconsistencies and fiction, Swarm the paths of your thoughts. Your interpretation of my actions, Convenient to your cause. I'll say again another way. Splintered slithers of truth. Rumored tales, my proof. Tolerance prevents an outcome. Repeat chorus Words a moldable form of matter, Interpretation your point is shattered, Lies a manifestation of truth. Changes arise because of a difference. Words a moldable form of matter, Interpretation you point is shattered. Lies a manifestation of truth. Don't accuse me because of a difference. I know you hear my words, But somehow there's faults that lie between us, Speaking my mind, Single trail of thought, I know you're listening, But some faults lie between us, I know you hear my words. Repeat chorus.
2. Road to Ubar
The commands of an ancient sultan/ Whispers through the sandstorm winds of time. Calling across the centuries. Far beyond the Valley of the Kings. Lies buried deep within the sand. A city of decadence, lust and greed. That's why the gods condemned this land, Furthest reaches recorded time. Lay Ubar, city of lust and greed. Reading the chiseled inscriptions. A funerary temple. Osrisis, tributes to the gods. The sultan of Oltman. Denied the presence of this land. Decipher the hieroglyphics. City overcome with lust. Ancient brothel returns to dust. Angered by the plague of sin. Let the holocaust begin. This was the city of Ubar, Watch our modern life return to ancient ways. We're on the road to Ubar.
3. Staying Conscious
When the first simple cells, Met the first rays of light. Carbon beings in process, Leading to the life that we have today. A billion years later, technology springs. Exploding progress pushes us forward. But exploding progress is tearing us down. What is fiction is fact, There is no blame for conditioning. Reality's created by ourselves, We're to blame for our problems. Cells of our shells, merge with the earth, Becoming separately involved. Composting, transgressing. In order to embrace life and death. We must eliminate, the boundaries that lie between the Physical and spiritual. Symbiosis, a two way process. People read their lives and then create their psychosis. Staying conscious requires effort, Evolution reawakens primal subconscious. Aware - Awake - Alert Known or felt by ones inner being. Flow and flower Observer, and observed. A wave, infinite ocean. Life and death in cyclic motion. You are a human being. You have an ego and mind It's a useful part of you But it's not you.
4. Beyond Genesis
The past is open, But he future still hides. Natural selection, The strongest will survive. Planetary process of Evolutionary change. Natures chosen aspects from Hereditary range. Perspective's of truth. Artificial selection Rather than supernatural intervention. Could life possibly be? As simple as your revelation. Because we have evolved. There is no myth of creation. We may not have been created. But not from two single beings. Eternal genetic process of mutating genes. Random shuffle Random mutation.
5. Spiritechnology
We offer you the key, to your spirituality. The answer that links us to our eternity. The differences that lie between yourself and all you see. But this does not convince you, you lust technology. Unite the earth. Our gods have failed us; all along it was a farce, And all along you knew, but refused the help of visitors. A concept that would bloom higher intelligence, was kept a secret from our for a minorities profits. But praising god won't save the world. Only praise of human kind. You close your eyes and place demise on this forgotten entity. Fabricating stories to protect your former glories. A time is soon at hand. The covered shall be revealed. Exposing your whole lifestyle. As nothing but a lie. Galactic intervention. Dimension intervention. Progress your spiritechnology.
6. Inertia
7. Hermaphroditis
Union of opposites becomes union of ones self. The universe above mirrors the universe within. You search for identity, schizophrenic multibeing. Your two have become one. Your Libran scales often sway. Focus you thoughts on balance. Mediate on harmony. Elevate your mind and all that is shall return. Inner equality of masculine and feminine principles. Your active male fuels your fire For furious dominating. You're passive female, maternal soul. Psychic subconscious. Under the scepter of Zeus. Your two have become one. Let your will penetrate. Deeply from within. Your Libran scales sway .With eternal unrest. Two as one Unisex, you are she and she is him.
8. Dancing to Life
LIFE. In all its fragile beauty surrounds me. LIFE. It's energy and vigor consume me. LIFE. My zest for life and living remain. LIFE. The chi flows thick and forceful through my veins. The wisdom of her anatomy. Denies the first to enter to chance to create. Survivors travel the unknown. Knowledge of the location of their goal. Each an individual. Yet all together one.
