Raising the Mammoth

"Raising the Mammoth" (2002)

1. Passage to Paralysis
2. Broad Decay
3. Vertebrates
4. Gigantipithicus







1. Passage to Paralysis

In My Experience An Act Of Passing Takes The Stage
In An Interchange Of Confidence
In My Experience An Obligation By Design
Where My Liberty Is Just A Word,It's Just A Word
In My Experience An All Consuming Type Of Dance
Embracing A Silent Partner Who Takes The Lead Away
Just When You Thought You The Hang Of It

In My Experience Mind And Matter Time And Space
Play An Endless Game Of Endurance
All In A Lifetime Of Work Fatigue Reaction,
My Body Slows But My Mind Is Quick
Firing Thoughts In Random Succession
My Passage To Paralysis Might Seem Diverted
Well I Can Tell You
I Can Feel It Coming On, I Can Feel It Coming On
In My Experience The Center Of Trade For My Soul
My Humanity Knows When I Try To Back Away
Or When I Raise The Mammoth

Penance Aside When Expression Resides,
Strike A Blow For The Teacher Who Got Me Thinking
Listen My Son, You Have Got Only One Chance
There's No State Of Grace For A Poor Man's Offering

I'm Lost In My Drama's Tears, Been That Way For Years
And I Don't Know If It Is Real Or Fiction
'Cause I Can't See The Forest For The Trees... Now
Let Us Stray From My Course, Turned Away
When It Came To The Day,That I Needed Something,
Turn To Stone, Turn It Over Alone,
Light A Path, Find A Way To My Promised Land

I'm Lost In My Drama's Tears, Been That Way For Years,
And I Don't Know If It Is Real Or Fiction
'Cause I Can't See The Forest For The Trees... Now

I Face My Passage To Paralysis,
Can't Stop This Free Fall Of Analysis
I Face My Passage To Paralysis,
Just Brace For Impact In A Long, Long, Long
Long, Long, Long, Long Stall

In My Experience, I Pause Before And After,
In My Experience, I Learn Before And After
That The Time Has Come For Reflection,
On My Passage To This Hemisphere
In My Experience, A Piece Of Music Or My Favorite Book,
And An Evening Alone, Makes Me Think About "Someday",
When We All Raise The Mammoth

'Cause I Can't See The Forest For The Trees... Now

'Cause I Can't See The Forest For The Trees... Now

Hit By The Force Of A Madman's Recourse,
Pound A Fist, Wayward Course For Such An Old Man,
What Will I Make When My Spirit Awakes,
And My Endgame Is Only Another Start ?

I'm Lost In My Drama's Tears, Been That Way For Years,
And I Don't Know If It Is Real Or Fiction
'Cause I Can't See The Forest For The Trees... Now

Why Am I Left To Waiting ?
Why Do I Feel This Pressure ?
Why - When It's Only Me Here ?
I Write My Own Destiny,
With My Fears Of What I'll Be,
And I Can't Pretend To See,
What I Just Can't See
How Did I Ever Get Here ?
How Do I Make A Change ?
How Do I Find A Peace Here ?

Prevent Disaster, Annihilate This Plague,
A Principle Brew Motion, My Procession Is Vague,
My Souls Stirs A Brew Of Redemption That Is Lost.
I Awake From A Stupor And Realize The Cost,
Now I Realize The Cost
Now I Realize The Cost Is Great,
And I Wait For A Reason To Stay, My God




2. Broad Decay

Broad Decay, It's All Around Us,
Flowing Forth In Rich Abundance,
Broad Decay, Church And State Combined Against Us
We Can't Believe, We Can't Escape
Broad Decay,The Empowered Speak
But Use The Structure To Keep Their Reign Upon The Meek,
Broad Decay, The Willing Masses Thought Controlled,
Issued Chains By Empty Suits And Mortgagged Souls

We'll Share One Voice Today,
Just Raise The Mammoth And Pray
The Family Breaks And Spills Its Blood
Where Dreams Once Stood,
To Weave The Fabric Of What We Are,
When It Could - But I Hear No Outcry

The Fire Fades, That Keep Us Hoping, Looking Forward
But Cynicism Cuts Deep Our Favor
With Its Heavy Handed Sword,
No Matter, No Matter How Bad The World Ever Gets,
Just Remember This Song Is For You,
Never Forget, Never Forget
How Far You've Come, And You've Made Your Passage,
From A Place Of Fear,
To A Destination Full Of Promises
Kept With This Song I Promise,
I Will Be There For You
I Will Be There For You,
I Will Be There For You,
Yes, I Will Be There

We'll Share One Voice Today,
Just Raise The Mammoth And Pray
But Children Starve Without A Bed To Lay Upon,
While We Market Cars The Dead Are Gone
We'll Share One Voice Today,
Just Raise The Mammoth And Pray
With Broken Vows We Turn Our Words Into A Curse
Taken Lightly, Our Promises. " Chapter And Verse",
But I Hear No Outcry

Broad Decay - Broad Decay - Broad Decay

We're Bailing Hard And We're Sinking Fast,
Our Sons And Daughters Tend A Barren Land,
Where None Can Last
We'll Share One Voice Today,
Just Raise The Mammoth And Pray

The Social Climber, A Shiny Smile And Strong Handshake,
Bears A False Witness, But We Still Partake
Listen To Me, Listen To Me,
You Know The World, Now You Make A Choice,
And You Make It Clear,
'Cause I'm Waiting With A Promise To Be There For You
I Will Be There For You... I Will Be There For You...
I Will Be There For You... I Will Be There For You...




3. Vertebrates

I Challenge You To Challenge Me
In A Test Of Truth And Free Will,
Now You Make Your Moves And I'll Make Mine,
We'll Then Debrief And Just Unwind,
There Will Be No Fear Of What We Say,
And No Pretenses On This Day
Standing Face To Face,
Yet We Still Won't Say What We Believe

Revealing What We Want And Who We Are,
Admitting What We Have Become,
Just Spineless Mammals Adrift At Sea
In An Evolution Still To Come
Standing Face To Face,
Yet We Still Don't Say What We Believe
We Just Avoid, We Cave In, We Lie

[Spoken Word : "Now Here It Is "]

You Robbed Me Of A Chance To Engage You On The Same Page,
Now All I Here Is Lies, No Wonder I Can't Reach You
I'd Like To Speak The Truth, If You Don't Mind,
I Need To Get This Out, I Better Do This Quick,
While There's Still Some Time Left Here,
I Want To Tell It Straight, If You Don't Mind

You Robbed Me Of A Chance To Engage You On The Same Page,
Now All I Here Is Lies, No Wonder I Can't Reach You
I'd Like To Speak The Truth, If You Don't Mind,
I Need To Get This Out, I Better Do This Quick,
While There's Still Some Time Left Here,
I Want To Tell It Straight, If You Don't Mind

Let's Be Vertebrates, Let's Be... Mmm...
Let's Be Vertebrates, Let's Morph Into Vertebrates

You Robbed Me Of A Chance To Engage You On The Same Page,
Now All I Here Is Lies, No Wonder I Can't Reach You
I'd Like To Speak The Truth, If You Don't Mind,
I Need To Get This Out, I Better Do This Quick,
While There's Still Some Time, Well ?
I'd Like To Speak The Truth, If You Don't Mind,
I Need To Get This Out, I Better Do This Quick,
While There's Still Some Time, Well ?
You Need To Hear This Straight, If You Don't Mind
