Unawares 04:36

Your death caught me unawares Brittle psychic earthenware Smashed to smithereens Pieced back together In silence Hopefully Doggedly Hopefully Stubbornly Stubbornly Your death caught me unawares I did keep my head down Lifted up my collar LIFT UP YOUR COLLAR, MATE! Lifted up my collar LIFT UP YOUR COLLAR, MATE! COME ON, LIFT IT UP, MATE! Lifted up my collar Your death caught me unawares When a soul lays bare Brittle psychic earthenware In a wretched palace Smashed to smithereens Send your best trained seamstress Smashed to smithereens Send your best trained seamstress Send the seamstress WHERE’S THE SEAMSTRESS? COME ON, WHERE’S THE SEAMSTRESS? The best trained seamstress THERE MUST BE A SEAMSTRESS AROUND HERE!

The Noble Aim 04:26
lyrics

You don’t know what you don’t know The truths you live by The fire you live for nagging at reason Toppling pride Ramming through all these walls Impregnable sites Muskets and rams Crossbows or dams What of this Pride? Subtlety is required Your ego Crucified The humbling sight, pneumatic fight For the Noble Aim For the Noble Aim Don’t explain it away Face the truth head on Give silence a Chance For in the beginning was the Word… Beginning was the Word From chaos and void Shone into being through silence and consciousness Consciousness Called forth by music Gently prophetic For the Noble Aim ‘This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased’ ‘This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased’ Uisce beatha Uisce beatha Μετάνοια Μετάνοια Unheard of For the Noble Aim

I Am Near You 04:13
lyrics

I am near you Long after the storm I am near you Long after the flood Full time is passing I am near you No criticism No cynicism Wind abating Talking no more Sore no more Priceless serene Shots of moving stillness in a flashing of light Speeding trains in a motion-free time Life devours me to the ashes of mine Puzzled into a vertical line I am near you But you won’t say But you won’t say I am near you But you won’t say I am near you Conscience in between I am near you Something in between Like a crack is showing Like a crack is showing Shots of moving stillness in a flashing of light Speeding trains in a motion-free time Life devours me to the ashes of mine Puzzled into a vertical line

Sun And Shadow 05:21
lyrics
buy track
Born with the sun She whispered ‘saviour’ So ever since there’s been a shadow over here Sprawling Prowling Lurking Born with the sun Won’t make you any More visible waiting for a sign A full time job A price to pay these days To fight off darkness And resist, please, Light! Shining Glowing Blazing I’m standing up against the light I’m standing up against the light Standing up against the light Born with the sun With words long gone Wishing he were beamed up into a cloud Into a cloud Fleshless universe Coddling a cortex on your own Fleshless Fleshless Fleshless Universe Transhumanist universe world Fleshless Fleshless Transhumanist world I’m standing up against the light Standing up against the light I’m standing up against the light I’m standing up against the light

Adam Et Eve 05:41
lyrics

Pétrir la glaise mais se heurter au roc Ni marteau ni glaive n’entaille le bloc Adam voit éclore Eve Et s’évanouit devant Elle Sens amis Arracher de la gangue la pépite étincelle Aller dynamiter le cœur de la citadelle Ils fabriquent des chaînes Du matin jusqu’au soir Encagent des émotions Encagent des léopards Adam voit éclore Eve Et s’évanouit devant Elle La vie peut bien jaillir et ses ailes sont belles Le sang coulant, une veine, Flot afflue sans peine L’ouvrage quitte la trame Donne forme à une âme La mine pétrie d’Etrusque étrangement fruste Donne forme à une âme La terre couvrant la pièce en camoufle le lustre Donne forme à une âme L’éclat est terne L’éclat est terne Faire éclater la boue qui afflige la vie Souffler tout l’oxygène pour ranimer une âme Laisser monter du bouc mythique le cri Et refuser toute ode qui annonce le drame Adam voit éclore Eve S’évanouit devant Adam voit éclore Eve S’évanouit devant Elle - Elle - Elle - Elle Pétrir la glaise mais se heurter au roc Ni marteau ni glaive n’entaille le bloc Adam voit éclore Eve S’évanouit devant Adam voit éclore Eve S’évanouit devant Elle L’éclat est terne Elle L’éclat est terne Elle L’éclat est terne L’éclat est terne L’éclat est terne Elle
