All hands on deck until the wind moves
Pretend Old Nick forgot his due
Wait out the storm with friends-with-benefits
Pretend their answers are true
All hands on deck until we all be damned
Replacing skin-on-skin with holograms
Wait out the future with a blowup doll
It's gender neutral though, you know?
All hands on hold until the time noose
Unties itself and lets us loose
We do not need the daily regiment
We just need freedom to choose
All hands on hold until the action breaks
A barricade does not a faction make
Wait out the future til you hear the call
It's problematic though, you know?

Sun Will Blaze
02:36
|
|||
|
Too easy to fade away away away
Lost track of my face today, okay, hooray
No need to throw shade my way - go pray, go pray
For the sun after a long cold rain to blaze to blaze to blaze
Blaze
Too easy to take away away away
How simply they may be swayed by a parade
No need for the chains, I'll stay - just wait, just wait
For the sun after the long cold rain to blaze to blaze to blaze

Dimensionoids Again
03:46
|
|||
|
Cold floor, cold bones, cold knives
Old bones, old hands, old spies
You swore I swore they lied
I for one do not recall at all
I never meant to be the one to kill the holy high
Bear with me, I'm certifiably free these days
I never meant to be the one to shoot the moon in the eye
It just gets away from me sometimes
I'll tell you all about Dimensionoids
And how UFOs and ghosts and all the gods are real
They're just from another dimension that our brains evolved not to see
So that we don't all end up like me
Hard head, soft brain, third eye
Off brain, off switch, off time
You glitch, I glitch, we're fine
I remember everything

Been both kinds of sane
Can't say I prefer
Breaking hearts to being broken
I've hung my head in shame
From the top of the world
Taking bets on who gets taken
One of us
It'll be one of us
One of us
It'll be one of us
It'll be one of us
It'll be one of us

Got Bridges
02:35
|
|||
|
I got bridges
I got bridges
I got bridges
I got bridges to burn
I make witches
I make witches
I make witches
I make witches to burn
Hit them switches
Hit them switches
Hit them switches
Hit them switches and turn
I got bridges...

Traitor Defenestrator
02:26
|
|||
|
Flick the end
Save for later
Need an apocalyptic stash
Godsend
Elevator
Seed of the utmost cryptic wrath
Make pretend
Levitator
Breed that always needs a bath
Soul to lend
Maybe later
Speed of light, we might just crash
Traitor defenestrator
Traitor defenestrate

The crows don't seem to like me anymore
The crows don't seem to like me anymore
The crows don't seem to like me
And that might be why they bite me
But the crows don't seem to like me anymore
The snakes don't seem to like me anymore
The snakes don't seem to like me anymore
The snakes don't seem to like me
And that might be why they bite me
But the snakes don't seem to like me anymore

I try to find
A road divine
Distracted by the pomp and shine
Had to find out how my head hangs now that pride is poison-tongued
Pride is poison-tongued
It's all in view
They censor They
Redacted by the CIA
Glad to find out that my spies and tails have all the fun,
Surveilling me on the run

Broken Hand on the Reins
02:46
|
|||
|
The hand that holds the reins is broken
All shattered bone and withered skin
Listen for bullshit when it's spoken
Beware a planet's worth of spin
Here comes the overflowing river
Here comes the ever-rising sea
Here comes the taker and the giver
Debating on which side to be
No answers for the inundated
All shattered homes and giving in
Evolution might be outdated
The fittest do not always win

No longer
Relevant
Opinion
Moot
All been heard
All been said
Shut it down
Don't shoot
Self-righteous
Hypocrites
Comeuppance
Is due
Witch trial
Hysterics

Whiteboy Dub
01:59
|
|||
|
I'm a whiteboy and I got no soul
Just a whiteboy and I know my role
I'm a whiteboy and I got no soul

Scavenge No More
02:54
|
|||
|
Obnoxious aviators fly around in packs of clones
I'm here just grateful I don't have to worry about drones
Scavenge no more, I got meat on my bones
I'm content
I'm content
I'm uncomfortably content
Come in screaming from the west with nothing great to say
But it's better than hearing the sound of somebody yelling "BOMBS AWAY"
Enemies of enemies know not for whom to pray
I repent
I repent
I repent
I unwillingly repent
I don't know what's real or not or if my thoughts are true
I'd prefer to never know and keep my mind in two
This madness keeps things interesting, better me than you
Heaven-sent, heaven-sent, I believe it's heaven-sent

Fat Now
02:07
|
|||
|
Some kind of ritual exposed
I'm not sure what but something's off
Maybe it's all for our own good
I'm getting fat and going soft

Stoop
02:12
|
|||
|
There used to be these stairs
There used to be a house
There used to be a crew
They had it figured out
Stoop
We creatures used to care
But we burned down the house
There might have been a point
But it's all over now
Stoop

Benjamin Lee Farley Asheville, North Carolina
Never took a lesson in my life. All songs written, played, sung/sang/sing-ed, produced, computerized / all album covers made

NONE of my sounds are made with Artificial Intelligence, just a few album covers. Is anybody reading this? If so thank you. If not, then I guess I can say whatever I want because you'll never read it. So fuck you I guess? Just kidding madluv.
