paranoid that it won't be much longer paranoid that I've come all this way with hardly a loss and hardly a word against but who's keeping track that I've been getting it slack bringer of doom, enter my room, tell me the wait is over bringer of ends, it only makes sense to cut through this safe enclosure paranoid that I'm soft in the middle paranoid that piss'll run down my leg strangers will watch and loved ones will turn away but who's keeping track that I've been getting it slack bringer of doom, enter my room, tell me the wait is over bringer of ends, it only makes sense to cut through this safe enclosure and find out what I might withstand never had a beating, left motionless and bleeding I've never had a car crash and taken flight never had a break in where innocence was taken I've never had a good friend jump through the light bringer of doom, before you I swoon, carry me limp and senseless into your den, let no one come to my defence, I'm wholly willing to find out what I might withstand to find out what I might withstand to find out what I might withstand to find out what I might withstand

Everywhere I go Middle-aged women on their own Pay for copulation With a servant that they choose Everywhere I roam Babies are born in plastic wombs Athena's favorite tale of a woman and a man, man! She dreams about the drama of human kind She turns it around The men arrived with weapons of war and run They gonna kill thee She dreams about the drama of human kind And turns it around Women arrived with weapons of war and run They're gonna kill the unborn History is changed For the good of breast and nails Remaining men in cage Educated to obey Theories are vain Crystal roses must prevail Cleopatra the Great took Valhalla from the men, men! She dreams about the drama of human kind She turns it around The men arrived with weapons of war and run They gonna kill thee She dreams about the drama of human kind She turns it around Women arrived with weapons of and run They're gonna kill the unborn Pandora's Dream Every room is stained Lady Diana wants the world Demons on her wall Mother Theresa on her floor Everywhere I gaze Asherah's daughter on the cross Joan the arc is trained to remove the corpse of men, men, men, men She dreams about the drama of human kind She turns it around The men arrived with weapons of war and run They're gonna kill thee She dreams about the drama of human kind And turns it around Women arrived with weapons of and run They're gonna kill the unborn They're gonna kill the unborn Kill the unborn She dreams about the drama of human kind She turns it around Women arrived with weapons of war and run They gonna kill thee She dreams about the drama of human kind And turns it around The men arrived with weapons of and run They're gonna kill the unborn

Last night I met you in my lair I thought I was crazy but you were there You smiled at me and said "I'm gonna dive into your head" I kissed your lips a thousand times While darkness came inside my mind I felt the cold invading my body I saw you had no mercy Your hundred tentacles around I fell unconscious on the ground In my sleep I had a nightmare And in the distance I saw a flare I crawled across a human tide As dark as the deepest underside I had to get out of this mire To try to reach the saving fire I was lost into my fears And the minutes became years You were still torturing me I did try but couldn't flee You're my misanthropy And you come every night to visit me When I woke up afternoon I was alone in the room But you never really left me You're still here and you sap my sanity

(En chair et en os, en âme et en sang. Que dieu vous bénisse jusqu’à l’autre bout de l’orage.) Where do you come from? Where do you come from? Where do you come from? I come from the sea, my son. Do I make you feel alone again? Love me do. Do you fear my eyes, at the end? At the end of the sea. Seeking my way to make you love me But do I feel well again? Where do you come from? Where do you come from? Where do you come from? I come from the sea, my son. We’ve tried to reach outer space President, they were all paranoid Rocket men, they were all in love We’ve tried to reach outer space President, they were all paranoid Rocket men, they were all in love

Shut away Another war Shut alone What is it for? Let me know End the show Another moan Another goad Shut alone In my muffled roar Shut away Stop the throe Change the course Sight the shore Before i fall Overboard Let’s start planting forests of hearts Let us go far, let’s grow art Find a pure dimension I have seen a circle in spiral Inspiring something about to be born Still remains the brains’ rain Falling on shallow waters to rise so high If you’re not blind, let’s sight the end of all delusion We’ve something to claim Let children be our stars Shut away Shut alone Another way Another door I’m fucking bored Shut alone Help me grow Take another road I don’t know Where i go Stop that throe If i fall Let me know I won’t go Wouldn’ float? Still remains the brains’ rain Falling on shallow waters to rise so high If you’re not blind, let’s sight the end of all delusion We’ve something to claim Let children illuminate the dark

Purple twilight sunshine bounces off a sea of green An orange sunset sky meets up and reminds me where we’ve been Gentle and caressing winds relax into a breeze Caressing ever softly as your touch join in a dream

I’m under your spell Is this Hell? I don’t wanna be you Split in two I’ll love you to the death You’re deep within my head I’ll hate you to the end And you’ll love me Black mirrors revealing dark secrets, and hearts Forcing my hand, I hate your love. You love my hate They’ll love you to the death Forever in their heads You’ll dance upon their graves And yet you’d save them Blood moon burning bright, tonight The ebb and flow’s tide of the mind You’re a danger to them, to me and you You’ll never be through, they still want you

Same hypotheses everywhere: The world is flat and square Walk off the edge Through space and time to reappear (on the other side). Faith in ‘Square Earth’ Made me a better person While everything else was chaos My world became secure The world is square (The world is square) The world is square The world is my castle Surrounded on four sides By a square ocean Protected by a moat of ice It doesn’t speed through space But rooted somehow, Still, calm, glorious Epicenter of the universe. The world is square (The world is square) The world is square I see four spirits Standing at the four corners of the earth Holding back the four winds To prevent any wind from blowing On the land Or on the sea Or on any tree. Into the wilderness Up a high mountain The third spirit leads the way Then lightning strikes The fourth spirit approaches I see his face Within it is the form OF FOUR LIVING CREATURES! The moon is a projection A hologram A doctored NASA photo Creating a false perception Thousands of years Of fake science Everything you’ve ever known Is a deception The world is square (The world is square) The world is square (The world is square) The world is square (The world is square) The world is square
