GATES OF HELL
03:06
|
|||
Our blessed building was never built
But you can still wonder 'round it
Feel the guilt reverb through gaps
The fricative drag from ash to ash
Two pound spirits
Glycol-based fog
I felt you and I knew you loved me
Resurrection cut with speed
For cheap entry talk to me
Sacramental ambulatories
Colossal rise through all our stories
Rib volute
Ashlar and mortar
Put dignity in death
O no one seems alarmed by this dogmatic dance macabre
I felt him
Cyclopean punters on the fervent hunt
Cary a tid to naos ridge
The deceased bulging from the wall where I could have survived them all
Intercolumniation
Knocking out teeth that go on lasting
In the earth setting
Blood orange over the North-West
Damp leaves clotting
Clay over clay
I felt him coming
And I knew
That He
Loved
Me
He loved me
He loved me
He loved me
He loved me

NO OTHER FAULT
04:24
|

For this failure and for no other fault
For this failure and for no other fault
Baptise me, please
There is nothing to be done
Among these Giacometti trees
For want of a rope
To live without hope
But desire, desire, desire
For this failure and for no other fault
For this failure and for no other fault
Baptise me, please
There is nothing to be done
Among these Giacometti trees
For want of a rope
To live without hope
But desire, desire, desire
We certainly
Will not be
Sixth amongst
That company
The long way
We shall go
Down into
The world below
For this failure and for no other fault
For this failure and for no other fault
Baptise me, please
There is nothing to be done
Among these Giacometti trees
For want of a rope
To live without hope
But desire, desire, desire

LET ME SPEAK
03:43
|
|||
Let me speak, you owe me
A great deal because you made me love
I'd rather have my ears shattered
Than to hear the phone not ring
And now the tones of pain
Demand I hear them out
So now I've come again
Where grief and weeping are found
And so I came where light is mute
A place that moans as oceans do
Embalmed by storms
Embattled scorns
I can't do this anymore
There is no misery so great
Memories guarding Hell's gate
But if you so yearn to trace
Then through tears I shall say
Doves when called by their desires
Will come with wings spreading high
And now lifeless bodies fall
For dead
You owe me this revenge, God
I insist that you grant it me
I loved him quite madly
More fool that I was for him

GET REAL
04:16
|
|||
And now
I came
Once more
To conscious mind
New forms
Of torment
Wherever I set my eyes
Rain falls
Heavy
Endlessly
Pours down
In sheets
Through Tenebrae of air
Cerberus
Barks down
The bodies
Of creatures who thrived there
His eyes
Vermillion
His fingers all sharp nailed
He mauls
Skins them
Hacks them into four
From all them
Rain wrings
A wet-dog howl
Over
Such shadows
Flattened
In that hard rain
Chopped down
For money
For profits sake
Green-washing
Lying
Lying to your face
Get real
Get real
Quiet only when teeth sink in
They feel
They feel
They die as teeth sink in
Get real
Get real
Quiet only when teeth sink in
They feel
They feel
They die as teeth sink in
Such shadows
Flattened
In that hard rain
For money
For money
For profits sake

AVARICE
03:45
|

Here is almighty justice for those who live in avarice
Justice for the suffering that lines the pockets of the rich
His sight restored
Plutus is able
To make the world
Inevitable
From us concealed
As if the serpent
Hungry as wolves
Insatiable
Ignoble life
Which made them vile
Now makes them dark
Indiscernible
Beast or whirlpool
Rock and a hard place
Rolling great weights
This will be their fate
Here is almighty justice for those who live in avarice
Justice for the suffering that lines the pockets of the rich
I do not feel sympathy, it's not worse than they did to me
Live in fear who live in greed, the revolution is coming
The suffering of the many is spent on their life of luxury
The suffering of the many is spent on their life of luxury
Lines the pockets of the rich
Here is almighty justice for those who live in avarice
Justice for the suffering that lines the pockets of the rich
I do not feel sympathy, it's not worse than they did to me
Live in fear who live in greed, the revolution is coming

THE STYX
04:39
|
|||
Yes, I’m crying
I’m too mad to talk
I’ll just let the tears fall
Feeling rising
I just let it come
Nothing to be done
Under this cold water
Black sullenness
Nothing good adorns my
Whole memory
Like these orange streetlamps
Peeking in to see
The smashing of the mirrors
And sinking down beneath
The Styx
The Styx
The Styx
Going over
What I should have said
Poison myself instead
Under streetlamps
Minutes trudging past
Matches struck in the dark
Under this cold water
Black sullenness
Nothing good adorns my
Whole memory
Like these orange streetlamps
Peeking in to see
The smashing of the mirrors
And sinking down beneath
The Styx
The Styx
The Styx

TELL THE TRUTH

Tell the truth
Oh you're stealing all of my future
(I want you, I want you to panic)
Tell the truth
Oh you're stealing all of my future
(I want you, I want you to panic)
Tell the truth
Oh you're stealing all of my future
(I want you, I want you to panic)
Tell the truth
Oh you're stealing all of my future
April is the cruelest month
Breeding lilacs out of the dead land
Mixing memory and desire
Stirring dull roots with spring rain
Tell the truth
Oh you're stealing all of my future
(I want you, I want you to panic)
Tell the truth
Oh you're stealing all of my future
(I want you, I want you to panic)
Tell the truth
Oh you're stealing all of my future
(I want you, I want you to panic)
Tell the truth
Oh you're stealing all of my future
(I want you, I want you to panic)
February is blistering
Walked straight out
Into a fly trap
What if it's not fair
To raise children
Who will never
Feel immortal
There's a reason
There is always
A flood story
But this one seems
To have slipped from
The page when no one
Was watching it
It's now or never
Tell the truth
Oh you're stealing all of my future
(I want you, I want you to panic)
Tell the truth
Oh you're stealing all of my future
(I want you, I want you to panic)
Tell the truth
Oh you're stealing all of my future
(I want you, I want you to panic)
Tell the truth
Oh you're stealing all of my future
(I want you, I want you to panic)

Foul is fair and fair is foul
Above I wallowed in blood
Present fears are less than
Horrible imaginings
So really, you're lucky
If the ground moves beneath your feet
Unsex me here
Fill me up with cruelty
Stopper remorse
Let boiling vermillion run through me
I am not worried
Come what may
Time and the hour
Run through the roughest day
And you will know me
When I lay my vengeance on thee
I said you will know me
You will know me
You will know me

VIOLENCE (AGAINST SELF)
03:04
|
|||
Sit and try
To justify
The reasons why
All stand in line
They're here for
The trepanning
Toothed orotund
Grips hood of bone
Chuntering
I'm winding
Myself up
I cannot stop
Cover lifts
A gurgling
As air flies out
Ominous sound
Disbelief
Hollows my head
Mocking me
Left for dead
Skull is like
A fly hive
Trypophobe
I've lost my mind
They me
May thee
They me
Dead tree
Trepanation
Trepanation
I made gallows of my house
I made gallows of my house (trepanation)
I made gallows of my house
I made gallows of my house (trepanation)
I made gallows of my house
I made gallows of my house (trepanation)
Trepanation
Trepanation
I made gallows of my house
I made gallows of my house (trepanation)
I made gallows of my house
I made gallows of my house (trepanation)
I made gallows of my house
I made gallows of my house (trepanation)

ALL CONNECTED
04:33
|

Never see
Never see the face of you
Never hear
Never hear just what you do
What you did, what you did
What you did, what you
Like I got
Like I got imperfect sight
The supreme
Ruler gives us that much light
What you did, what you did
What you did, what you did
We're lighting up the dark side
With our network of gold veins
All connected
All connected
Then someone hit the big score
Figured how to ride the wave
All connected
All connected
Put your feet down on the ground (don't act out)
Got to switch it off somehow (of character)
Get your head out of the cloud (make sure you're)
Got to turn it round somehow (predictable)
Got to make them all stand down
Get the fuck out my head
My head, my head
My head, my head
My head
Now the whole thing feels so stuck (can't keep your)
Quiet when the smart phone locks (heart hidden)
Don't know what they use me for (we know you)
Guess it's whatever they want (we know all)
Got to switch it off somehow
Get the fuck out my head
Get the fuck out my head
My head, my head
My head, my head
My head, my head

(TELL ME)
Lowest of the universe
Towards the centre on which all other weights are one
Frozen to glass
O the shallows O the lowest dregs of all
Denials of love
A thousand faces, teeth chattering, heads bowed
To escape, the harsh wind
That whips around from Satan's bat-like wings
Two souls close
In one hole
Their eyes sent
Drops to the lips
And frost bound
Their tears tight
In crystal
And so
Tell me who you are
Tell me who you are
Tell me who you are
[OMITTED]
Tell me who you are
Tell me who you are
Tell me who you are
[OMITTED]
Tell me who you are
Tell me who you are
Tell me who you are
[OMITTED]
Tell me who you are
Tell me who you are
Tell me who you are
[OMITTED]
(HOPE AND THE ARNO)
Father, lessen our pain
You who clothed us
With this flesh
Strip it away
I plead for you
I bleed for you
Already going blind
I called to them
Though I had watched them die
And then hunger
Had more power
Over me than grief
And then hunger
Had more power
Over me than grief
Plead for you
Bleed for you
(VISORS)
Here stars dance before my eyes
I have lost all feeling so really its pretty
Violet, sapphire, holographic visor
I don't want to wake up, wake up baby
Feathering white against the light
Shadows bicker, snowflakes flicker
Wretched spirits, running 'round this fun house
I don't want to wake up, wake up baby
You know it's curtesy to
Keep these stony veils over you
You don't need to know where you are
Just look at the pretty, pretty
You know it's curtesy to
Keep these stony veils over you
You don't need to know where you are
Just look at the pretty, pretty
Here stars dance before my eyes
I have lost all feeling so really its pretty
Violet, sapphire, holographic visor
I don't want to wake up, wake up baby
Feathering white against the light
Shadows bicker, snowflakes flicker
Wretched spirits, running 'round this fun house
I don't want to wake up, wake up baby
Still seeing stars across my eyes
I have lost all feeling so really its pretty
Violet, sapphire, holography visor
I don't want to wake up, wake up baby
(CHANGE)
God was made in
Our own image
I see God in
Every person
And all this time
All we needed
Was each other
To hold each other
The power we share
Is the same power
That parted oceans
And made the whole world
Love each other
Love each other
