1. Motion
Motion
Nothing to block this, this eternal instinct
The shape of a bloody mouth and an eye that peels pretence
The only flesh I will eat, the only thing I can give away
Sliding on lotion
Freedom thru' motion
I close on things I've never known before
To mould in a way so old, we rip an outline in red
The elements our bed
I am yours for you and your sores
Slide in lotion
Freedom thru' motion
Surrender to an instinct arcane
We're animals, animals in animal skins
Closer to a secret enlightened thru' the insane
A touch of lips on honeysuckle hips
2. Jellyhead
Jellyhead
Too long have you lain with filth
Too long have you lied
Too long have you had no ears
Too long has the soul been tied
Too long have you had nothing to say
Too long have you played apart
Too long have you lived by proxy
Too long and you known no heart
Fucking with apathy
And drinking poison sorrow
Destroying a God with it
Sinking your knees in the dirt
Pushing your angel in the pit
A sleep of reason and of spirit
You have sealed your eyes with dirt
Shuffling on all fours
In an attempt of deafness
3. Loveless
Loveless
We were waiting in the pissing rain
To feel the touch, the touch of death again
I was shaking and he was sweating
Waiting on something to ease the pain
Strung out tight
Looking for that face in the night
Here it comes, everything's gonna be alright
I guess I'm gonna get some sleep tonight
There's this grey mist in her eyes
He gets this drowning feeling inside
He left her crashed out on the bed
He shakes her in the morning but she is dead
Strung out tight
Looking for that face in the night
Here it comes, everything's gonna be alright
I guess I'm gonna get some sleep tonight
We were waiting in the pissing rain
To feel the touch, the touch of death again
I was shaking but he was crying
Waiting on something to ease the pain
Waiting on something...
4. Purity
Purity
We are saints and we are sinners
String us up from our red hands
We are whore and we are mother
Suck our breasts and we shall bleed
Heavy blister of our city
Watch it turn
Starburst red
This is our future foetus
Let us kill it
Blood dead
This is our past performance
Let us take it
To our bed
This is our idea of purity
Let us hole it
In the head
Our black stink
Rolls down
Trickling slowly
Up and around
Her heavenly body
Absorbed
By a dead girls head
That to me sounds
A likely story
5. Intro / Scarred
Scarred
She's 5, she screams and cries
The man made her bleed inside
She wandered far from home
She's lost and all alone
Outside it's bright and sunny
Inside it's sick and funny
He sticks it in... his face is strange
He sticks it in... the blood the pain
He sticks it in... why wont he stop
He sticks it in... the fear and shame
Skin splits skin again...
"You can call me uncle just for the afternoon"
As he drags her sobbing to the centre of the room
The man on the wall with a small moustache
And crosses with bent ends
Black and white hungry faces
Say come and meet some of my friends
6. We Are Tomorrow
We Are Tomorrow
There's muties like us
In every town
And all the slaves of slaves
Got try to put us down
The new-age witch hunt
It's not faraway
Their fear and ignorance
Is getting closer every day
The legacy is ours
Their pain and sorrow
But we have the power
We are tomorrow
We are tomorrow
7. Behold the Man
Behold the Man
I am the diceman
Randomatics are my kick
I've got to roll those dice to live
People call me a lunatic
Morals hung out the window
And I have cut the rope
One minute I'm a rapist
Next minute I'm the pope
Let the dice decide
My fate is in their hands
I no longer care
Which way up they land
Every day I wonder
Who I really am
But it no longer matters
Behold the Man
Who am I to question the dice
Let the dice decide
8. Here Come
Here Come
Running through the dead zones
Around the darkway
Shifting and formless
A Vacumn in raw power
Keeping just to the edge in places unlit
Keeping just to the edge in places unknown
Taking the weak and the old
The hopeless and the insane
The young and the stupid
Here come
Bloody amoral animal
Our blue-black unknown nemesis
Pushing in silent malevolence
Retribution in death narcotic
Sucking the light and closing the distance
Here come
Revelation
9. Man in the Crowd
Man in The Crowd
Wandering, following
Can't be alone
He wants to be a part of the drone
Can't stand the silence
Must have the noise
Desperate to be one of the boys
He's a scared and lonely man
There's a million others like him
He's just doing what he can
To get by
In his life
He is... man in the crowd
The smell of sweat
The death rattle of cars
He edges up to people in bars
He follows your footsteps
Follows the laughter
You never know
He's really out there
He's a scared and lonely man
There's a million others like him
He's just doing what he can
To get by
In his life
He is... man in the crowd
