1. Captured

Done with control and focus
Stick your hocus pocus
When your head is up your ass
How can you hear your calling

It’s not smoke and mirrors
It’s your deeper hatred inside
But that’s the way they want it
And that’s the way it will be
Spreading the lead
It’s war

The face of peace will compel you
To spread some lead, to change the world
Subliminal conspiracy is the work of hatred preached
The conspirator will be Judas tonight
When the hour of darkness comes
And so it shall be done
And so it shall be written
Spreading the lead
It’s war

Was it the thought of accepting your brother
When we all share the same mother earth
Was it your patriotic duty or an idiotic plan
That would keep our blood spilled on god’s land
You did your evil deed
Planted a lethal seed
To make a war grow




2. Last Reign

You damn yourself and everyone else
Picking up the pieces, they left you in a rotten world
With hand me down tears and reasons

Do you think
There’s a place for you
Where the sun shines bright
And you delight in the moon
Or do you feel you don’t belong
And I wouldn’t take the time
To write you a song
You see the things around you
Society says they’re not meant for you
I find this all a great mystery

You’ll never know for sure
Will you ever know for sure
If you want to change the world
Into a better place
Can you control the rage inside
And face the things that were done to you
Then you see the innocent ones
Aren’t the ones who deserve abuse
Perpetuate the cycle of violence
And take it out on someone else
How long will you be just another fool
Angry at the world

Hi fi, si fi - smokin’ till you’re red eyed
No where, don’t care - looking with a face stare
Future is a blur
Choose it, lose it - everyone is fair game
No hope in scope, everyone is gonna pay
Angry at the world
Slowly you drain - quietly you’ll pain
Cause you’re angry at the world

Living down on the bottom of a mountain of guilt
For a childhood of trouble
Can you just shove aside the one
Who had tried to let you see you’re someone

Or is everyone your enemy
All part of a world conspiracy
Can’t even find a friend in yourself
Cause you are your own worst enemy
Thrown down and pinned to the ground
Are you strong enough to stand back up
How long will you be self-defeating




3. Tonic Sounds

Life is easy in altered states
Confidence you imitate
Will you embrace this gift of life
Or drown your time this theft denied
Are you happy to waste away
Did you cross the line
Your broken, soul broken

Did you ever curse the day when willpower
Walked away and created a monkey immoral
Didn’t anyone tell you the monkey has no soul
But you do - and it’s broken

Go out and get what you can
Yeah go get what you can
Till you’re a name on a stone
In a box that holds your bones
I’ll say “Don’t feed the monkey” (3x)
Do you remember what it was like
To be something more than this
Something more than a broken soul

In the beginning you thought it was chic
You thought it was cute and exotic
And you said it would never take you over
But now you’re controlled by narcotic

They don’t give a damn
I don’t give a damn
You don’t give a damn
Soul broken




4. Unseen Forces

It’s too late to change my ways
Energize my mortal flesh
On visiting this forbidden place
It feels like my second home

The elders would not approve
Being captured by this groove
If only a beast does soothe
Then I’m captured by this

I don’t carry a heavy heart
I like it heavy - that’s my style
No links to the unholy one
They can’t conceive of just having fun

Only the weak or misguided sheep will believe
We were conjured up from the deep not by God almighty
Exposing all sides, all colors of the spectrum of light
And all shades of grey to the black and blood red
I’ve been captured and I like it
Your illusion of what we are
I must repeat, my choice is clear
I spoke my peace, made it my own
To be captured, I did not resist




5. Beautiful Lies and the Ugly Truth

Waiting in the shadows
The sun smiles through
A tear in a shade
Summons you to lay claim
Reaffirming your resolve

And you can’t walk away when opportunity calls

And have they called you
To speak with the masses
And would you do it
To discover some more

Raise your hands - Touch the sound
Let it in - head rush
Raise your hands - Touch the sound
Feel the rush - head rush

Demand you’d do better
And the hell with yesterday
Harness the energy

No one can stop you
Will yourself to succeed
Will you ever see the day
Waiting in the shadows
Looking for that rush

And you can’t walk away when opportunity calls
Drawing you closer - let it in, let it in
And you can’t walk away when opportunity calls




6. Head Rush

You, stressed to the point of snapping
Hey can’t you see, sounds like me
We’ll do whatever pulls us through
Celebrate every day

Still turning, turning away
Use tonic sounds
Defend our sanity
Still turning, turning away

And everybody looks away
While the world is in decay

It seems like people are weaker
And the demons are stronger
Mother nature’s angry
These might be the last day

Turning, turning away
Use tonic sounds
Turning as they play
Still turning, turning away

Caught in a trap
Breaking your back
Bring us down in a pile of shit

A little tonic for the soul
Oh tonic sounds
A little tonic for the soul
Tonic sounds

Oh, father guide the children
Or there will be nothing left
For the next generation
Disassociation
Hate is the center of the world




7. Spreading the Lead

Predictions of the future come to pass
Like a preview of a movie called the last reign
So does freedom ring
Bell rings for the faithful
To me it sounds like a death toll

Wash away my sins for I feel the rage
Against what we’ve become
Watered down without fiber, headed for a mudslide
The erosion of the free

Is there still time, to kill the serpent
But the venom runs through their veins
If we catch them flush them out
Spill evil from their veins
We’d better wake up today

The blood of the free
Drips one by one from the eye of the eagle
Putting us on the endangered species list
Vultures, thriving vultures
Symbolic over the shattered liberty bell
Shrapnel embedded in our hearts

A little more blood
A little more sweat
A little less freedom
A little less money
A lot less love
And a lot more hate
It would be like a tyrant’s reign
If it came to that
We’d rather be dead
Oh, not before we left our mark

We’ll not be numbered
We’ll not be marked
And this warning brings hope to the faithful
And this warning bonds us together
To prevent against total erosion
Providing shelter for the last reign

Maybe there’s still time
But you’ll not get me
And you’ll not get mine




8. Angry At The World

Brought us together, caught in a web
Unclear why we were here
We never surrendered, never gave up
Timeless soul, adventure
Tracing colors of the rainbow

Chased away the winded death
Return me to my living breath
Cradled in the spirit web
Unseen forces lend a hand
It’s not how you wear your skin
It’s the stuff inside that’s wearing thin
It’s not how you wear your skin
It’s the desire that feeds the power within

Timeless ones, I sense you’re here
Traces of wisdom in the air

Melted together in an ancient tree
Forces united on this journey’s next
Guiding hand through our earthly quest
On this next level, nothing to fear

Timeless ones, I sense you’re here
Traces of wisdom in the air

Or play it safe, close your mind
To what’s unknown
And starve the desire
That feeds the fire within
You wouldn’t see the unseen
If you came to them
Face to face
So many unanswered questions
So many things we don’t understand

Eager eyes watching from somewhere up above
They’re not here to bring us down
The unseen lend a hand
Eager eyes watching from somewhere up above
They’re not here to bring us down
Keep focused on the plan




9. Broken Soul

Roaming through the streets of my brain
Speeding past bad memory lane
Looking for that special place
Where I can ponder, wonder
And dream you’re in my space
A sacred place

Intruder

Why does everyone want to sell a map of heaven
While the devil hopes I’ll take a shortcut to hell
Thought I was strong enough to do this on my own
But she’s a trained pain killer
They’re ramming images down my consuming throat
Force feeding their acceptance

Oh yeah! Just leave me be
My conscience clean

Intruder

I’m driving for the truth
And fearing the unknown
And staying away from your guilt trip

Dreamer, dreamer, dreamer
You can’t do this on your own
Oh intruder
Keep out of my head

I saw you invading my dreams
Crossing my path
Making me scream
Oh no - it happened to me
It can happen to you

You’re in my space
Invading my dreams
Keep out of my head




10. Solitary War

Alone we travel in our minds
Trying to touch and taste
A world we think we’ll never find
Look at yourself
And see something else

Fast forward to your failing mental health
Slow decay into oblivion in a one room hell
You pass the days
Memories piled to the ceiling
Mix with the dirt that covers
Your shattered life
Saving the remnants of a solitary life
Except for the secrets playing again and again
Never to reveal the dirty deeds
To those in civilian life

When life was good the days flew by
You wonder why the constant struggle
To make whole what could never be
Flash back to the point that broke you wide open
Consume every hour of every day

You helped pave the way for these free world I say
He paid with his life but he came home alive

I miss the days when life was tame
My lover’s voice to soothe the pain
I can’t go back
They took my youth
She waved goodbye
I never knew
That life had died aboard that train
I live this war inside my brain
Alone we travel in our minds
Trying to touch or taste
A world we think we’ll never find
Flash back to the point that broke you wide open
Consumes every hour of every day




11. Intruder
