Is it par? Nope! Dangerous! Is it wet? Yep! This course! Will we stop? Nope! New shirt! Spin wheel? It’s golf! A course! Terry’s lament is the pinnacle of slinking back from the meltdown hole Terry’s lament is a Sunday illness Irish Goodbye two years in a row Strap it on little buddy Everyone has to step up their game In the absence of Makarewicz I have to play a onesome and Steve has to play the...

Pavement folds Gently let me through Through the bifrost Into your kingdom In this world we lust for more In this place we find it all Savage we must be Stay the course Brave the line And emerge triumphant Like the conquering soldier whose name it bears The General of Tiny Money Walking slowly Cannot miss a thing Must stay in control Perfection periphery My eyes fall upon it Reaching inside so dee...

Rats in the body Like something out of Poe Master transfer Do the unknowable Slip into the skin of the one you want to be Find that perfect fit Let your self be known Dig To unbury the true love Dig Deep in the hallowed There's no judgment here (Judgment is always here) Only what you left behind, dig Silence the watchers They've never been seen Face up in bile just to get clean Dig To unbury the t...

That ceiling bursting and the trials that transpired Overflowing Dreaming of something dry A vacation earned doesn't ensure a good time Mitigation Now here we stand at the edge of a literal cliff You don't know... You don’t know how deep it goes I can’t be the only one concerned You don't know... You don’t know where the current likes to pull Go, I’ll be the last one in the water Look at it go Wat...

It's the glaze of the rays Burn a gap into the haze Right through the halo of this place As we rollerblade into the light Experimenting on this flight Bracing our life for the next stage In the face of the Champions It’s a race of the Champions Take your place with the Champions In outer space we’re the Champions of Light They carry me into the stars Where my thoughts can travel far Ancestor voice...

Am I frail? Is this democracy? Why even wonder Who holds the keys Promises were broken The moon is with me Say my name At wolf’s hour Save your breath Evermore The time is now At wolf’s hour To strike a deal Forevermore Are you frozen? Are you too scared to speak? Every lost breath Is gathered in by me Cannot hold the sunlight The moon is with me Say my name At wolf’s hour Save your breath Evermor...

In the Cave of Time Surrounded by atheists That’s what I’ll call ‘em Like Shortfaced Lawrence They’re not be trusted Oily denizens Creeping around Sick note! Sick note! I feed the mood when it strikes I trust the roll of the dice This dank labyrinth Nary a Minotaur That’s what I’ll call ‘em Like Shortfaced Lawrence They’re likely fictional Bulls and Boys They don’t mix Sick note! Sick note! I feed...

We’re going to have a clean break By hook or crook We will separate Been so long Forgot what I even felt like We’re going to have a clean break Like the bones that never met again Healing stronger in the most painful places Om Namah Shivaya Om Namah Shivaya Om Namah Shivaya Om Namah Shivaya Cover your heart Om Namah Shivaya Cover your heart Om Namah Shivaya Cover your heart Om Namah Shivaya Cover...

When I see the beauty Brightly colored Same thing routinely A coward’s gesture Where the crows fear to fly Where the alligator never swims Where the prey can wander free Just want to be Unaccounted for I see the beauty React and suffer Where the crows fear to fly Where the alligator never swims Where the prey can wander free So many signals So few lessons learned So many signals And yet here we si...

Taking heavy steps Take them on the road Where bystanders can feel the fear I could never stay (In the night I am walking) Stay in the middle Where the fire can’t reach you It’s all we can do to control (In the night I am walking) It’s all we can do to control (In the night I am walking) It’s all we can do to control Taking heavy steps Take them on the road Where the whispers are all but silenced...

These eyes have seen the majesty Sculpted flesh chiseled atop an armature Beach Body Mike is present and accounted for Oh no Do whatever it takes to avert your lady's eyes Oh no Anger is such a tired scene Externalizing rage gets us nowhere fast my friend Beach Body Mike is letting it all hang Oh no His biceps have triceps always pulsing Oh no We have to wrap him up in burlap just in case Oh no He...

Open up this membrane Getting ready for some righteous fluff I'm on the backside of a game worth playing Hedgehog style It's a fine line Might have spoke a jump too soon Oh shade Now I’m living in the back yard Now I’m drinking from the drainpipe Now I’m sleeping in the moonlight Now I’m living my best life Sulfur sticking to the back side Dreaming hot This stone don't skip no more I put my mouth...

There’s another useless victory The case is closed before the jury takes their seats And now all I can do is pour another pint I want to scream it to the heavens And the prosecution rests I want to tell them about you All the truth is spent There’s another dead man walking So easy to know the future when The one accused has nothing but integrity I want to scream it to the heavens And the prosecuti...

When you go panoramic We'll all be in hysterics The charity will all be gathered Your name immortalized What we eat will become us Growing and developing Aspiring for greatness You’re our Patient X Winding down the voices Silent like a friend We bathe in microplastics The next evolutionary plan We all bow in reverence To your bold commitment Mostly man but something else A shopper who went decaden...

I’d trade your summer for your fall Another springtime lie Watching leaves turn to gold Long time… Since the horizon broke So I… Will have to cozy next to you Repurposing memories In our stasis in the void The future we made To ride these... Surrogate seasons I’ll watch you bundle up at night As they dial the winter in Crystal breath among the stars Long time… Since the horizon broke So I… Will ha...

I was told not to listen to the sounds in my mind Looking back... Listening to... The people I left behind I’m afraid of everything And I don’t even know the language Learning nouns while lying prone helps me clear my thoughts My body gets looser, and the minutes get shorter But the voices keep getting louder I was told not to listen to the sounds in my mind Looking back... Listening to... The peo...

I fear for my life Deign to be strong But in the end it’s just a play Someone came home And what they brought is unholy Someone came home From the darkness born of light Someone came home Straight from the radiation zone Dinner’s getting served Ring that bell Testing site has alarms on Widening the net A brushstroke of futility Someone came home And what they brought is unholy Someone came home Fr...

Manos had his hands of fate Ilsa took her task so serious Foxy Brown was on her last nerve Den of Earth spread it all around In the cheap seats we’re looking out for you We’re looking out for you We’re looking out for you We’re looking out for you Manos had his hands of fate Ilsa took her task so serious Foxy Brown was on her last nerve Den of Earth spread it all around Find me in the cheap seats...

If we are chosen Are we unworthy? Can we be silent? Unless we participate Go for dark strokes Chiaroscuro My artist No one told you Not to be bold Free range Peel like an onion In this sweatshop of a scene Only come up to breathe Blindly lay yourself bare Uncover everything Go for dark strokes Chiaroscuro My artist No one told you Not to be bold Free range And madness is dissolvable Transfer to th...

It’s the lane that you’ve chosen It’s the road that decides it It’s the wave of commitment Steering towards the endgame It’s height of the stakes It’s guidance on the highway It’s the righteous decision To greet this head on Just like that Our choice is over Just like that We’re trailing fumes In the space between mountains Something that feels like deliverance Just like that Our choice is over Ju...

I’m finding it hard to believe I’m not burning In this actuality I’m an innocent bystander When they come with questions I’ll be in the wind Before that spreading fire does them all in In my life End of the line Be a brushfire And burn them out Seems like only yesterday you were kindling But everyone knew you'd amount to something In my life End of the line Be a brushfire And burn them out In my l...

Originally recorded on PKG's The Sea of Problems (2000) Something is changing inside of me today A metamorphosis if you will Gonna shed my skin And try a new life A new home Lose these flimsy bones Waltz back into town With a look that's all my own Natural predators will walk on by Not aware of what I used to be A fragile thing A covered thing A thing that once was lonely Was lonely A victim A vic...
