Swing
around the fair maypole
plague has taken my life
but it can't take my soul
[x2]
Pray
for me my love my dear
pray for me my dear
Swing
around the fair maypole
as the fire consumes
all my flesh turns to coal
[x2]
Pray
for me my love my dear
pray for me my dear
Swing
around the fair maypole
blow out the flame
and put ash into bowls
[x2]
Pray
for me my love my dear
pray for me my dear
Swing
around the fair maypole
feed my soot to the winds
time has taken it's toll
[x2]
In ages dark a fickle nature seeks to end all life
many come and many go both rich and poor alike
I've come to claim you cursed few, embrace you in my arms
Grimnir, Reaper of the Flesh, succumb ye to my charms

Venus Weeps

I've been called so many names by so many tribes
It's no wonder that I've grown into the fear they hide
It's no wonder that I symbolize all pain and fear
It's no wonder that they tell their children I lurk near
because I represent their fear of dark and the unknown
It's a question man has pondered since the days of old
and it's me who they would blame for their own selfish ways
it is me to whom they point and say please go away
I fell for you
to fight for you
I came for you
fell from grace for you
I've grown accustomed to my persecuted name
it's a title that I wear without a shred of shame
it's a title that you gave me as your whipping boy
to relieve you of your guilt that I'm your your source of joy
All the good in life is gained through knowing me
all the things in life you love are what have come from me
I'm the source of the all sweetest things you've ever known
but It's your greediness that leaves you all alone
I fell for you
to fight for you
I came for you
fell from grace for you
Hate me
when you should love me
Run from me
when you should run to my arms
Distrust me
when you should embrace me
You want me
but say I've poisoned your heart
Morning star bringer of the light
hated son of of those who seek to dwell in night
all those who fear the truth all those who fear what's right
all those who've been misled by those who wield their might
with a holy fist clad in their royal shades
and tell their tales of men interred in ancient caves
supposed son of god
and in his name they kill
when all I want for man is but to seek their will
Hate me
when you should love me
Run from me
when you should run to my arms
Distrust me
when you should embrace me
You want me
but say I've poisoned your heart

Rusty Rustics

My compass points north
all directions fall south
signal change in the system
sine waves from the mouth
God is in the future
harnessed up in the sky
in the air that we breath
in the sound in the light
We've electrified
pure faith and glory
atomized pure emotion before me
I see in truth that we all have a story
and mine speaks volumes
of those souls who'd ignore me
Enlightened I, look toward night sky
and preach forth a gospel as the ages fly by
and those that hear the words that I have to say
become like a signal beamed eternally
and those that avoid me will become like as dust
to recede one again into earth and to rust
and to be like the children of a long lost prophet
who shall always remain out of history forgotten
Keen eyes see me
here on the street
soapbox preacher
offer a treat
the wave of the future
is truth that I speak
the wave of the future
is truth that you seek

Beep beep beeping
Catch me catch me creeping
Slip slip slip along
Wake you while your sleeping
I don't know what I'm doing
This road will lead to ruin
Subliminal not criminal
Your window's where I flew in
The wooden floorboards creaking
Your door's cracked so I peek in
While you're asleep and dreaming deep
I'm going off the deep end
I swear that I won't hurt you
Even though I want to
In misery lie next to me
I'm fighting back the voodoo
I'm losing all control here
My hand is forced by you dear
I'm giving up, I've had enough
Succumbing to my worst fears
Grab the grab the chrome
Put it put it to my dome
Pull the pull the trigger trigger
I'm a I'm a coming home

Last night I dreamed of blasphemy
more like a nightmare
I tried to scream out loud
but know nobody's out there
A vision, decision
to believe this premonition
of hellfires, the smell of tires
burning in the air
and yells, oh god the yells
it nearly drove me to the edge
of reason, the season
of winter cold as ice
I tried to wake up, and take up
what little nerve I had
to try and banish, all the hellish
demon sights I held in mind
------------
I remember dark unholy pain
burning deep inside of me
I tried to force it out
but couldn't not fight the ecstasy
of liberation, this evil sensation
of losing all control
and changing into
what I'm truly meant to be
Ungodly warbeast, a flesh feast
is what I have come to crave
and I shall take all that I can
before I'm captured or deceased
It is my bloodlust that I must
obey if my desire
demands me to go
and slaughter all the prey that can I see
and if I chose you, you will do
only not because you are the best
but because you are simply
who I've chosen as my food
I shall defeat you, then eat you
and run your flesh along my tongue
savoring each flavor
just for fun
I feel no remorse, my main course
is always abhorred
by all but those who understand
what human life is truly for
and that is dying, abusing and lying
a saturated soul
is best to satiate
the black ungodly hordes
------------
Arise you foul and heartless creature
You are the wretched spawn of all that is godless
Realization of your destiny is at hand
Succumb, Succumb, Succumb
------------
Last night I dreamed a dream of blasphemy
it was a calling that at first
I couldn't fathom
but now know what it all means
from my sub-conscience, a deep sense
of mortal corruption
a virus slowly taking over
feeding my disease
I have been chosen,
as stronger than most and
I take my task
as something vital to realm of possibility
I have awakened, and shall spend
what little time I have left
in this mortal shell
in causing pain and misery

Uncork imagination
release the inspiration
the chardonnay releases all my dreams
Something all so simple
believing what is unreal
I cannot fathom traveling the beams
------------
I've crossed the northern boundaries
somethings calling to me
the tower stands amidst a field of rose
The crimson curses my name
his majesty doth fear me
the party marches toward a battle grows
------------
Knock knock knock
upon your door
let me in
oh evil lord
I have come
to seek the truth
the tower beckons
to our group
Hail truth seeker
solemn dreamer
I will stop you
you wont enter
Be on guard
you demon spawn
my aim is true
and you shall fall
Bullets put
into your soul
catch a fire
free from all
Hail gunslinger
demon killer
I shan't die
for time repeats here

The Lost Cosmonaut
04:40

System's ready, I engage
strapped into my safety cage
pulling G's I've done before
breaking space is so much more
launched toward the great unknown
past where any man has flown
I am tasked with seeking space
to catapult the human race
course is set to cleave the ether
shuttled I defy the reaper
gone is lowly solar system
fall into the rumbled rhythm
braving Oort and dead of space
tongue is liking glory's taste
in the distance heaven looms
vast and silent like a tomb
Sensors reading something strange
heading to investigate
light is twisted twisting me
draw me into mystery
Receiving your transmission
question what you're missing
come in Simon, stay away
something nearby radiates
jets of x-rays shoot like beams
warns of dangers still unseen
I cannot resist myself
headed into something else
I can hear the voice of god
Simon here I am to solve
all your questions and concerns
I have knowledge you shall learn
Crossed into infinity
you can still see me
vision on horizon
memories of Simon
farer of the spaces
tamer of the wastes is
dead and gone to everyone
ventured into fallen sun
couldn't fight against the tide
too late I did realize
full reverse pulse beam on high
I reject the end is nigh
somewhere off my children cry
some blue-suit says daddy died
they don't know all that I've seen
crossed into the in-between

Broken Stick
04:14

I dream of bottles, drum beats, and bullets
2 in the head and 1 in the gullet.
Swallowing fifths, fast breakbeats, and riffs
45 to my skull, pull the trigger and quit
I solemnly swear that I won't despair
But I make no promise to forget i care
I've got one finger on my pulse and it's quickening
I've grown too sick but I'm only steady sickening
I've been abused, been left out and used
and I can be quite the asshole when it's me who's used too
Now it's copacetic, read my lips it's hectic
but I won't fry my mind even if this shit's electric
I've got one brain but my mind is on reserve
and I can tell that the worst is all I've come to deserve
but I don't mind, the time loops on rewind
and the next time around it's the opposite I find
Switch off the TV (TV, TV, TV)
I'm melting, my brain is absentee (I'm melting, Oh god I think I'm melting)
Plugged into the grid (GRID... GRID)
I'm dying, I'm dying to be free (Somebody set me free)
Is it, solipsistic in here or is it just me?
I can't remember my name but that's Ok, you see
I've blown mind on Northern Lights and Wild Turkey
I've smoked my weight in Wides, my fingers are ashy, greasy
Is it, night or day and should I know? Is it Ok
if I don't. Either way I'd rather lie here all the same
I'm a zombie, only I'm not craving brains
I'll feed on my depression, misery, and all my shame
I was, born and raised in a purple haze
minding mine under the eyes of my parent's steady gaze
Now I've, burned and raised all my youthful days
writing rhymes I'm doin' time as I sit here in a daze
I was, dead and gone long before we got along
so read between the lines of the lyrics of this song
you can, pick and choose either way we're gonna lose
in this sick, sad world I'm saturated bloody, bruised
[Chorus]

Someone is singing my name aloud
I hear them and I'm calling out
But my buzz is killing all response
You know I'm feeling so damn lost
My voice is silent in the night
dying breath is what i like
Murder me by ignorance
Murder me by sweet silence
Oh, murder me you don't know why
I die avoiding trying times
But it's ok, please don't ask why
I'd rather suffer in your eyes
than live a life of useless waste
than live a life in my disgrace
Hades is calling me
Xibalba is calling
Sheol is calling me
the underworld is calling me
Someone is singing my name aloud
I hear them and I'm calling out
But my buzz is killing all response
You know I'm feeling so damn lost
My voice is silent in the night
dying breath is what i like
I spent so many years on Earth
reflecting on my human worth
and I can't see one time of peace
one time of satisfaction reached
So murder me by ignorance
yes murder me in your silence
Oh, murder me you don't know why
I die to seek my dreams sublime
Someone is singing my name aloud
I hear them and I'm calling out
Yes my buzz is killing all response
You know I'm feeling so damn lost
My voice is silent in the night
dying breath is what i like
I've planned my life out in this tome
as written word in spoken drone
to map a course out of my goals
and speaking thoughts as they are told
But somehow it's corrupted deep
into it's core my words are bleak
and give no meaning to you dear
the ones I love close minds to hear

Day Dreaming
03:58
|

I had another night like the other night
no sweet dreams nor sleeping tight in sight
every minute was a fight
with sounds all around and not a second of quiet
struggling to keep mind at rest
something told me it'll be alright
just relax and say fuck all to the rest
never mind that crack of light
I'm in a sleepless coma
uncomfortably sober
I think I'll toss back some jack
and a handful of soma
knock out for a moment
wake up unrested and angry
feelin' worser than ever
eyes red and drier
than and old piece of leather
Mind racing going crazy
I'm as light as a feather
coated in iron what I'm tryin'
to say is that there nothing left for me to remember
What time is it?
It's been 3 days since I've rest
I'm pretty sure nothing there's left
and my poor brain has abscessed
no lust for life
just an empty shell
who reeks of weed and sweaty must
I've stumbled into hell
I need Kevorkian
someone to lay me low
but no one would risk their life to put an end to me no
I would either
but if I had some ether
I can do myself by a method that's cleaner
than sharp blades or bullet shells
and brains on shiny tiles
Just let me think for a while
Let's not get carried away

Mellow down sunshine
beaming through the trees
rock and roll nightfall
bring me to my knees
sing song sing along
cold as winter freeze
see me sitting here
begging baby please
I saw
the rainstorms coming
sitting alone
she saw
the breakup coming
felt in her bones
Sometimes summertime
never seems to come
sometimes wintertime
makes me wanna run
I can feel it now
spring is on the rise
but sometimes melting snow
is autumn in disguise
Can't think of things like this
unless I wanna stay
pinned down like a clown
never get away
damned doomed whatever man
its really all the same
I can fight the change
but it happens anyway
I saw
a new day breaking
sitting alone
she's gone
so now I'm taking
my time to roam
What the hell is wrong with me
It shouldn't be like this
Wallowing in self pity
Ignorance is bliss
they say it's better to have loved
than never loved at all
I think that they're all single
and they're in for quite a shock
get up on your feet man
and try to face the day
it's fine to feel alone but
misery is not ok
get your head screwed on straight
it all gets better in due time
or you'll spend your life depressed
'til they put you in the pine

Something to Die For
02:55
|
|||
I wake up at three
there's a chill in the air
and I look at the moon
all regret and despair
'cuz my bed is so cold
since you're not here with me
and I'm sleeping alone
that's not how it should be
No it doesn't seem fair
'cuz you're out there with him
Since he stole you from me
my whole outlooks turned grim
From the moment you left
all I think of is death
Not a island of joy
in a sea of regrets
Oh,
I don't wanna go
but you
said it must be so
I look forward to death
as I once did to life
Here I am yet again
contemplating this knife
Will my blood run cold here
and freeze in the night
or will I feel some warmth
in release of my spite?
As the moment ticks close
I begin to feel fear
How you took all my hope
when you then disappeared
But I'm taking it back
slow one cut at a time
and I hope you feel pain
at the loss of my life
Oh,
I don't wanna go
but you
said it must be so
