lyrics

(Joshua)

Crackling bones barely stabilizing this rag doll between air gusts,
With earth's crust caked over face, I'm too selfishly cold to share the sun,
Preparing to jump in the wake of plush toys, feigning mistakes,
through some voice of awareness in their dead, mislead headspace,

Maybe to just negate the balanced weight tied to the scales,
We trade virtues into slavery for the gluttonous snake, knowing it's fate,
I tire -derailing high strung ticks of overcondensed rage,
Hate breeding age of aquarius, watch as your generation decays.

Show teeth, no more holding back, only blackness prevails,
Maximum bailout, last minute crash to gradual fail.
Big finish, hands out, tap dancing, marketing propaganda as creative expression when current events are too depressing,

Blowing a gasket, congested, with a track record of holding up traffic,
Pathetic smile, i'll torch your show of plastic,
Now the sky's raining fire, & with your below average level of motor skills,
Oh havoc, no chance of dodging, got you cockroaches on overkill

(Adam)

I sprawl across imaginary lines that I drew from past beliefs
while all attempts at killing time had barely bruised its effigies
remember me, the cracking of the sky, and rising of the streets
when curbside manners slide the sleeping deep beneath the driver's seat

tonight the blind will beat the blinder till their finer points are seen
all eyes will bleed in silence as doves cry the deaf and dumb to sleep
reap, sow, rinse, wash, repeat and set the phoenix on fast forward
toward ouroborus's endless clashing of of his tail and teeth

I feel we should unite based on the shade of blood we bleed
instead of breeding stereotypes from notions totally preconceived
fetus flytraps catch and feed upon the weakest of our dreams
and angels become fragile things when they wear skin instead of wings

I sing myself awake when daylight breaks the silence violently
hiding the design of divinity but an inch beyond this titan's reach
breaching the sternum's flimsy bulwark armed with little more than speech
to take that barely beating sleet soaked heart you claim makes you a human being

(Joshua)

Plotting the rate of fall, skin-popping thumbtacks in place
of the over saturated map, compacted fly-dropping act to erase us all,
Dead man's pace of brawl, stampede-stomping operetta,
overacted synapsis gathered by trading straws,

(Adam)

while the pace of which the lambs are culled is tied to corporate gains
the ordinals replace the names , the flesh reduced to pavement stains
against the grain, the hatchet strikes to fell the wood with sonance paused
so when cacophony returns its pulse emits threnodic songs

(Joshua)

Gone, the lesser of two evils, withered and decomposed,
leaving breeding to beatless souls as a testament to the people,
Congressionally cerebral, practicing acupuncture with rusted nails,
rush the sales & production, we're decorating the feeble...

(Adam)

with every needle adorned iris scanning the horizon with violence in mind
the flies that applied for clemency will systematically be declined
the skies are emptied in anticipation for the razing of the house of blue
when the personified obsidian wields your own memories to murder you
