+ Vicarious Eye on the TV 'cause tragedy thrills me Whatever flavor It happens to be Like: "Killed by the husband" "Drowned by the ocean" "Shot by his own son" "She used the poison in his tea [and / he] kissed [him / her] goodbye" That's my kind of story It's no fun til someone dies Don't look me at like I am a monster Frown out your one face But with the other Stare like a junkie Into the TV Stare like a zombie While the mother, holds her child Watches him die Hands to the sky cryin, "Why, oh why?" Cause I need to watch things die From a distance Vicariously, I Live while the whole world dies You all need it too - don't lie. Why can't we just admit it? Why can't we just admit it? We won't give pause until the blood is flowin' Neither the brave nor bold Will write us the story so We won't give pause until the blood is flowin' I need to watch things die From a good safe distance Vicariously, I Live while the whole world dies You all feel the same so Why can't we just admit it? Blood like rain fallin' down [Drown on grave and ground / ?? ] Part vampire Part warrior Carnivore and voyeur Stare at the [transmittal / transmitter] Sing to the death rattle La, la, la, la, la, la, la-lie (x4) Credulous at best Your desire to believe in Angels in the hearts of men. But pull your head on out [Your head please / ??] and give a listen Shouldn't have to say it all again The universe is hostile So impersonal Devour to survive So it is, so it's always been ... We all feed on tragedy It's like blood to a vampire Vicariously, I Live while the whole world dies Much better you than I. + Jambi [Here from the / If in the / Infinite] king's mountain view [Here from / If in] the wild dream come true Feast like a sultan, I do On treasures and flesh never few But I would wish it all, away If I thought I'd lose you just one day The devil and his had me down In love with the dark side I've found Dabblin' all the way down Up to my neck soon to drown. But you changed that all for me Lifted me up, turned me round So I, I would wish this all away Pray like a [martyr / father] dusk to dawn Beg like a hooker all night long Shout to the devil with my song And got what I wanted all along But I I would If I could I would Wish it away Wish it away Wish it all away Wanna wish it all away No price could hold sway Or justify my Giving away, my center So if I could I'd wish it all away If I thought tomorrow, they'd take you away You're my piece of mind, [my home / my Om / my own / my all] I said I'm just trying to hold on One more day Damn my eyes! Damn my eyes! If they should compromise a fulcrum: [Want and need] divide me Then I might as well be gone... Shine on forever Shine on benevolent sun Shine down upon the broken Shine [on 'til / until] the two become one Shine on forever Shine on benevolent sun Shine down upon the severed Shine [on 'til / until] the two become one [Divide and wither away / Divided, withering away / Divide, I wither away] Shine down upon the many, light our way, Benevolent sun. Breathe in union So, as one, survive Another day and season [Silent legions / Silently, just] save your poison [Silent legions / Silently, just] stay out of my way + Wings for Mary (part I) You... You believed ... You believed in movements none could see. You believed in me A passionate spirit Uncompromised Boundless and open A light in your eyes Then immobilized. Broken Fell at the hands of those movements that I wouldn't see Yet it was you who prayed for me. So what have I done To be a son to an angel? What have I done To be worthy? Daylight dims leaving cold fluorescents Difficult to see you in this light Please forgive this selfish question, but What am I to say to all these ghouls tonight? "She never told a lie, ... well might have told a lie, But never lived one. Didn't have a life, Didn't have a life, But surely saved one." See? I'm alright Now it's time for us to let you go. + 10,000 Days (Wings pt. II) Listen to the tales and romanticize, How we follow the path of the hero. Boast about the day when the rivers overrun. How we rise to the height of our halo. Listen to the tales as we all rationalize Our way into the arms of the savior, Feigning all the trials and the tribulations; None of us have actually been there. Not like you. Ignorant fibbers in the congregation Gather around spewing sympathy, Spare me. None of them can even hold a candle up to you. Blinded by choices, hypocrites won't see. But, enough about the collective Judas. Who could deny you were the one who Would have made it, illuminated You'll have a piece of the divine. And this little light of mine, the gift you passed on to me; I'll let it shine to guide you safely on your way, Your way home ... Oh, what are they going to do when the lights go down Without you to guide them all to Zion? What are they going to do when the rivers overrun Other than tremble incessantly? High as a wave, but I'll rise on up off the ground. You were the light and the way, they'll only read about. I only pray, Heaven knows when to lift you out. Ten thousand days in the fire is long enough, you're going home. You're the only one who can hold your head up high, Shake your fists at the gates saying: "I have come home now! Fetch me the spirit, the son, and the father. Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended. It's time now! My time now! Give me my, give me my wings!" +++ Give me my wings! +++ You are the light and way, that they will only read about. Set as I am in my ways and my arrogance, Burden of proof tossed upon the believers. You were the witness, my eyes, my evidence, Judith Marie, unconditional one. Daylight dims leaving cold fluorescence. Difficult to see you in this light. Please forgive this bold suggestion: Should you see your Maker's face tonight, Look Him in the eye, look Him in the eye, and tell Him: I never lived a lie, never took a life, but surely saved one. Hallelujah, it's time for you to bring me home. + The Pot Who are you to wave your finger? You must have been outta your head Eye hole deep in muddy waters You practically raised the dead Rob the grave to snow the cradle Then burn the evidence down Soapbox house of cards and glass so Don't go tossin' your stones around You must have been high Foot in mouth and head up ass So whatcha talkin' 'bout? Difficult to dance 'round this one 'til you pull it out. boy, You must have been so high Steal, borrow, refer, save your shady inference Kangaroo done hung the jury with the innocent Now you're weeping shades of cozened indigo (Musta) got lemon juice up in your eye When you pissed all over my black kettle. You must have been high! Who are you to wave your finger? So full of it Eye balls deep in muddy waters Fuckin' hypocrite Liar, lawyer, mirror, show me. What's the difference? Kangaroo done hung the guilty with the innocent. Now you're weeping shades of cozened indigo (Musta) got lemon juice up in your eye When you pissed all over my black kettle. You must've been... So who are you to wave your finger? Who are you to wave your fatty fingers at me? You must have been out your mind Weepin' shades of indigo Shed without a reason * Weepin' shades of indigo Liar, lawyer - mirror, for you what's the difference? Kangaroo be stoned. He's guilty as the government. Now you're weeping shades of cozened indigo (Musta) got lemon juice up in your eye Now when you pissed all over my black kettle. You must've been high! Eyeballs deep in muddy waters Eyeballs deep in muddy waters Ganja? P-lease! You must have been out your mind + Lipan Conjuring ... + Lost Keys (Blame Hofmann) Nurse: Excuse me, doctor, do you have a moment? Doctor: A moment? What's the question? Nurse: More of a situation, a gentleman in Exam 3. Doctor: What's the problem? Nurse: That is the problem: we're not sure. Doctor: You've got the chart? Nurse: Right here. Doctor: Hmm... not much here, is there? Nurse: No doctor, no obvious physical trauma, vitals are stable. Doctor: Name? Nurse: No sir. Doctor: Did someone drop him off, maybe we can speak to them? Let's get some background on this fellow. Nurse: No ID, nothing, and he won't speak to anybody. Doctor: Well, let's say hello. Doctor: Good morning, I'm Dr. Watson. How are you today? How are you today? Look son, you're in a safe place, we want to help you, in whatever way we can. But you need to talk to us, we can't help you otherwise. Now, what's happened? Tell me everything. + Rosetta Stoned Alrighty, then ... picture this if you will. 10 to 2 AM, X, Yogi DMT, and a box of Krispy Kremes, in my "need to know" pose, just outside of Area 51 Contemplating the whole "chosen people" thingy when a flaming stealth banana split the sky like one would hope but never really expect to see in a place like this. Cutting right angle donuts on a dime and stopping right at my Birkenstocks, and me yelping... Holy fucking shit! Then the X-Files being, Looking like some kind of blue-green Jackie Chan with Isabella Rossellini lips, and breath that reeked of vanilla Chig Champa Did a slow-mo Matrix descent Outta the butt end of the banana vessel And hovered above my bug-eyes, my gaping jaw, and my sweaty L. Ron Hubbard upper lip, and all I could think was: "I hope Uncle Martin here doesn't notice that I pissed my fuckin' pants." So light in his way, Like an apparition, [that] He had me crying out, "Fuck me It's gotta be the Deadhead Chemistry The blotter got [right] on top of me Got me seein' E-motherfuckin'-T!" And after calming me down with some orange slices and some fetal spooning, E.T. revealed to me his singular purpose. He said, "You are the Chosen One, the One who will deliver the message. A message of hope for those who choose to hear it and a warning for those who do not." Me. The Chosen One? They chose me!!! And I didn't even graduate from fuckin' high school. You'd better... You'd better... You'd better... You'd better listen. Then he looked right through me With somniferous almond eyes Don't even know what that means Must remember to write it down This is so real Like the time Dave floated away See, my heart is pounding 'Cause this shit never happens to me I can't breathe right now! It was so real, Like I woke up in Wonderland. All sorta terrifying I don't wanna be all alone While I tell this story. And can anyone tell me why Y'all sound like Peanuts parents? Will I ever be coming down? This is so real Finally, it's my lucky day See, my heart is racing 'Cause this shit never happens to me I can't breathe right now! You believe me, don't you? Please believe what I've just said! See the Dead ain't touring And this wasn't all in my head. See, they took me by the hand And invited me right in. Then they showed me something I don't even know where to begin. Strapped down [to] my bed Feet cold [and] eyes red I'm out of my head Am I alive? Am I dead? Can't remember what they said God damn, shit the bed. Hey ... Overwhelmed as one would be, placed in my position. Such a heavy burden now to be the One Born to bear and bring to all the details of our ending, To write it down for all the world to see. But I forgot my pen Shit the bed again ... Typical. Strapped down [to] my bed Feet cold and eyes red I'm out of my head Am I alive? Am I dead? Sunkist and Sudafed * Gyroscopes and infrared Won't help, I'm brain dead Can't remember what they said God damn, shit the bed I can't remember what they said to me Can't remember what they said to make me out to be the hero Can't remember what they said Bob help me! Can't remember what they said [We] don't know, [and we] won't know (x12) God damn, shit the bed! + Intention Pure as we begin Pure as we come in Pure as we begin Pure by will alone Pure as we begin Here we have a stone Gather, place, [erase, so / a razor] Shelter turned to home Pure as we begin Here we have a stone Throw to stay the stranger Swore to crush his bones Move by will alone Spark becomes a flame Flame becomes a fire Light the way or warm this Hope we occupy Spark becomes a flame Flame becomes a fire Forge a blade to slay the stranger Take whatever we desire Move by will alone Pure as we begin Pure as we begin Move by will alone Leave as we come in Pure as light, return to one Move by will alone + Right In Two Angels on the sideline, Puzzled and amused. Why did Father give these humans free will? Now they're all confused. Don't these talking monkeys know that Eden has enough to go around? Plenty in this holy garden, silly monkeys Where there's one you're bound to divide it Right in two Angels on the sideline, Baffled and confused. Father blessed them all with reason, And this is what they choose? Monkey killing monkey killing monkey over pieces of the ground. Silly monkeys give them thumbs they forge a blade And where there's one they're bound to divide it Right in two Monkey killing monkey killing monkey over pieces of the ground. Silly monkeys give them thumbs they make a club, And beat their brother down. How they survive so misguided is a mystery. Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability, To lift an eye to heaven, conscious of his fleeting time here. [Cutting it all right in two / Cut it all right in two] / Cutting our love right in two] Fight over the clouds, over wind, over sky Fight over your lie, over blood, over anything Fight over love, over sun, over nothing Fight till they die, (Ahhh!) over what? for their ending Angels on the sideline again, [Mixing love / Benched along] with patience and reason. Angels on the sideline again, Wondering where this tug of war will end. [Cutting it all right in two / Cut it all right in two] / Cutting our love right in two] + Viginti Tres Be patient...
