i'd like to draw a picture
please Don't mess up the mixture
i'm going full chameleon
whats that up on the ceiling?
i'd like to know
now who the fuck was that dude?
man, life is such a crapshoot
i'm wearing full regalia
what did they try to sell ya?
i'd like to know
what are you looking for?
where is your destiny?
i want to see the world, take me with you
i can't get out
if there's a way
i'd like to know
i'm stuck inside the wired
looking for Lain, i'm tired
i saw her last Tuesday
she flew off like a blue jay

day 72
i can't tell you how many times we've been through
the same conversation
please lay off the juice
breaks your concentration 6 more times than 2
i can't take it
3 miles underground
lies a military base we haven't found
constantly we're searching
ray cats glowing green
what i wouldn't give to see a flowing stream
i can make it
understand you're mine
you're the only human being left to find
there aint no one else around this place for miles
you can run but it may take you quite a while
to escape me
day 1005
i'm the only of my unit to survive
had to bury all my brothers in the san
far from home out in a foreign godless land
please forgive me
i'm in endless night
been so long it seems i've lost all track of time
only way to see my path is by the moon
have a feeling that my journeys ending soon
end transmission

我在这里走啊走
看看世界什么样
形形色色的人们
都和我擦肩而过
我走了长长的路
无论刮风或下雨
认识的人没很多
聊得来的有几个
一路上笑过哭过
疯疯癫癫不停休
爱人朋友在左右
喝点小酒真开心
早起海边看日出
傍晚阳台看星星
爬到山顶吹吹风
潜水听鱼儿说话
做我喜欢的事
听我喜欢的歌
生活可以很简单
丢掉不要的报复
带上轻松好心情
就可以出发上路
我在这里走啊走
看看世界什么样
形形色色的人们
都和我擦肩而过
做我喜欢的事
听我喜欢的歌

another one
i'm back again with another one
up in the sky there's another son
seems like you're blind so i brought it up
get out of town when the thunder comes
the rain and flood come to smother ya
leave you with wounds to recover from
out in the mud with the blood and guts
there's no hesitation when the guillotine comes down
pray for preservation
but we choose to revel in the flashing lights and sounds
savor the sensation
another one
something is coming and i wonder what
ca't you hear the screams come from under us
can't shake the feeling that somethings up
ghost on the ceiling like what the fuck
gnashing its teeth on some bubblegum
burning the plebs at the country club
now is the time you should up and run
get up and run
there's no hesitation when the guillotine comes down
pray for preservation
but we choose to revel in the flashing lights and sounds
savor the sensation

又东三十里遇见奇珍怪兽
我食下不死草与之搏斗
顿时力大无穷战胜它
西王母听闻我的聪慧勇敢
派青鸟请我来瑶池做客
赏美景 乐无穷
上西昆山看黄帝蚩尤之战
风雨交错女魃助战止水
她耗尽神力无法回天
我请求皇帝赐她赤水安家
与世无争不饶人间凡事
神北行 无雨下
神北行 无雨下
宵明烛光神容颜绝世无双
灵光照亮四方
夸父追太阳喝光了黄河水
身体变成山
应龙杀蚩尤人间兴云覆雨
所到处有生命
凤鸟如出现德顺仁义在身
天下会太平

bulldozer, God's soldiers
be kamikaze pilots
be drifting dead sprits
with eyes so violent
somewhere
there's no air
just dead staring empty spaces
i really don't care to go see those places
to tell the truth
i never saw them
no one knows them
when they're gone
when I was so young
i was haunted by a creature
but as i grew older it lost its features
to tell the truth
i never saw him
no one knows him
he is gone

Song for Terrill Mast
04:05
|
|||
|
Opens up his notebook
upon a mountain top in mid spring
105 melodies in his head
but he's thinking now of one thing
Panama sky on his mind
fine..
but he knows now that he must go
somewhere in time where the shorelines high
and cosmic melodies flow
Mediamonster
held up in a basement
or in a parking lot in Pilsen
another day is but another song sometimes
and he's written About A Million
in a world so fast
will they just look past?
will they all remember us?
but for Terrill Mast
i know its a fact
they will hear the cry of the Mediamonster
home
i will go

Not What You Might See

see the world just like a movie
then turn off the tv
and you'll find how time
makes you re-align
step back
watch the others moving
and they seem dead
but they never tell me why
why won't they tell me?
its true that i
once knew you well
but now you're only
what they breath
and me..
well i'm not what you might see
wonder why we would want this soul destroyed
is the world our toy now?
can we understand that its in our hands?
something bigger than the voice inside me calls
takes me by the hand a shows me why
why they won't tell me
they want it all
but i'm the only one thats here right now
so i breath
and be
but i'm not where you might see
