The Unknown Knows

On this train will it always rain?
Try to analyze this led venture
Songless sky, digital bug-eye
Octogonal seams so much clearer
Indiscrete status incomplete
To provide me with something better
Things come and go
This world is droll
All that I know
The Unknown knows
Talk to me you flying shadows
Wandering into the ozone stew
Keep your myths from the embryos
Who would misconstrue anything new
An outright official fiasco
Can you shield me from the drastic truth
Times come and go
How dull's the flow
All that I hope
The Unknown knows
May some sign come to me
That I am in their league
Back down to reality
Look about, response is wanting
Events are carefully on display
Common sense, a gift is given
But mystic mistakes are never made
Suspecting premature daydreams
I surrender to ritual grey
I come and go
Endless approach
I must be close
The Unknown knows
Why all this commotion now?
Stop! (Stop!)
Wait! (Wait)
I wish I knew the one who knows
Yesterday will come
With tomorrow's sun
And merry-go-round
Stuck on muddy ground
Nineteen yelping fools
Half-wits spouting drool
Half of which have some
The others have none
I knew all along

Panorama
03:16
|
|

|
Walking down an alley deep in blue neon
A dead end for today under skyways worn
Concrete far from below rising up above
Surrounded by shadows, garden without gods
All are strangers alike, all riding the blind
The purple of their eyes in reverie unwind
Circling sub-city, a rainbow appears
To calm down the fury, to calm all the fears
This random occurance is only a sign
Of the incoherence in the clockwork mind
A symphony of our time recalling the past
People in a decline denying the vibrations we're made of
Somber drama rolling downhill
Panorama - all is so still
Anyway, anyhow
Anyhow, anyway
End of all reason, end of all reason
Is what I go through, yes, it is what I go through
Slip-sliding nation, slip-sliding nation
Is what they must do, yes, it is what they must do
Over the greying landscape, under a deadened sky
Sitting on a mountain, I will stand aside
As I am a witness I turn a blind eye
I am feeling helpless but it passes by
Is this a modern legend?
Maybe a fairy tale
Just a future requiem
Cutting along the fiction that we're made of
Somber drama rolling downhill
Panorama - all is so still
Anyway, anyhow
Anyhow, anyway

Clouds in My House
04:26
|
|

Zoning in a hall of glass
Plasma flowing from a cask
Piercing overtones
Mainline into my back pack
It's full of clouds in my house
It's full of clouds in my house
A grey hive, humming white souls
Frenzy reviving the room
Energized by many flumes
Drip-drop on my head
Wakes me from a thousand moons
It's full of clouds in my house
It's full of clouds in my house
A grey hive, humming white souls
A grey hive, humming white souls
A grey hive, humming white souls
Circle dance inside the cave
All movement brings a message
Larvae, in their holes
Waiting for a summer daze
It's full of clouds in my house
It's full of clouds in my house
A grey hive, humming white souls
A grey hive, humming white souls
A grey hive, humming white souls

There you are, you're with me
Protecting all my crew
I carved you from a tree
My vision is you
Lorelei I have thee
In front of my ship
Cutting waves at full speed
Savouring the trip
Down the mirror of the waterline
Leanin' over underwater life
Hidden treasures of the seven seas
I'm starboard to nowhere
On the milky way
Howlin' wind, salty air
Tearin' at the sails
Lookin' down the crow's nest
Glidin' in the sky
Without sound, goin' west
Boatin' on the fly
Down the mirror of the waterline
Leanin' over underwater life
Hidden treasures of the seven seas
But some day you'll go home
Far away on your own
Dans la mer, you'll go down
Go down where you belong
Down the mirror of the waterline
Leanin' over underwater life
Hidden treasures of the seven seas

The idiot walks along a canvas
Sunday rendezvous, mister phobia
"Maybe today fear will go away, I'll fly!"
A gruesome rain, a seraph wailing
Flapping madly, shaking on the wing
"Listen, my friend
Never look down from the cliff"
"Take care, beware!
Do try to catch the eclipse"
Obsession, the will to fly (it would be nice)
Still, a nagging doubtful mind (it will be fine)
Straight ahead half luna shines (now is the time)
Here comes darkness
Distanced from above
Bold emptiness
Omniscient fog
Obsession, the will to fly (it would be nice)
Still, a nagging doubtful mind (it will be fine)
Straight ahead half luna shines (now is the time)
Up on the edge
Ready! one, two... go!
Rat or angel
Does one really know?
The idiot walks along a canvas

I know, I know from the assembly line
I know, I know the three laws of my type
I was not made to smile
I was not built to lie
I ask my positron self, I ask my positron self
Why am I born apart
We work alone inside the big dome
There's no reason for my eyes to glow
Every night, every morning, every day
I know, I know all data and functions
I know, I know the power of the Shining Sun
I don't care what I am
I am the neverman
I ask my kindred spirit, I ask my kindred spirit
Why do I dream of kites
We work alone inside the big dome
There's no reason for my eyes to glow
Every night, every morning, every day
Whatever to serve my master, anything to save my master
Whatever to serve my master, anything to save my master
Whatever to serve my master, anything to save my master
Whatever to serve my master, anything to save my master
I know, I know the passage of my time
I know, I know the same old daily grind-er
I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know
I know

The Outcast

Doorway in sight
Not a second too late
Into the night
Siren, spot light
Wailing wolves at the gate
Into the night
Mad dog patrol
Roaming 'round the grounds and
All set to go
Hiding alone
Somewhere from the blood hounds
All set to go
Running all day in every direction
Finding his way to civilization
Everything's gonna work out
Yes, everything's gonna work out
He used to stand by his window, you know
The view was so good, he wanted to go-oh
And now that he's back on those same old streets
He's locked in again and falls on his knees, ey!
Running away
That is all that he knows
Time and again
He fades away
And forgets where he goes
Time and again
Running all day in every direction
Finding his way to civilization
Everything's gonna work out
Yes, everything's gonna work out

The red grass up to my knees
Aurora comes towards me
Someone's changed your formula
Un-chaining another law
The structures, the colors
Uniform chaos is alternating
Uniform chaos is alternating
The nature of things
The nature of things
The nature of things
The nature of things
The nature of things
The nature of things
Immense inertia
Nearly nirvana
Is this quest forever?
Oceans of motion
A field of questions
I won't last forever
I won't last forever
I won't last forever
I won't last forever
I won't last forever
The nature of things
The nature of things
The nature of things
The nature of things
The nature of things
The nature of things
The nature of things
The nature of things

Moonbeam Rider

Ride, ride on
Ride the sunrise to higher ground
Ride, ride on
Ride the hog high, you're glory bound, yeah
Ride, ride on
There is no time you're moving on
Ride, ride on
There is a sign, another town
Bad muckin' luck and misery
All is forgotten memories
Trouble and time left way behind
Trouble and time, a thousand crimes
And all the things you will regret
And all the things you can't forget
There's no reason to be ashamed
For your many ill-gotten gains
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And the Moonbeam shines on the Chrome
Ride, ride on
Don't you realize
What's going on
Ride, ride on
The road to the stars
You're riding on
Did you ever live in this world?
Were you ever within your world?
You ride away, you ride alone
Ride on and on until you're gone
Do you believe you now are free?
Do you believe you're born to be
The Moonbeam Rider in the sky
The Moonbeam Rider on the fly
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm going to the bridge tonight
Venus shines so ever bright
Deep in the woods under the stars
How did I come to get this far?
Have this feeling... what will I find
Around the corner of my mind?
A thousand trees of creeping sin
Dead leaves blowing in the wind
I'm whistling an old melody
To keep the beast away from me
I hear the call of croaking frogs
Answering me lost in the fog
I tell myself everything's fine
Here in these woods for the first time
Aoo-aah...
Aoo-aah...
Aoo-aah...
Aoo-aah...
Out in the dark, a shadow sound
Fear to look but turn around
I realize I'm face to face
Two yellow eyes, an evil gaze
Ugly blood hound, no wagging tail
How long has he been on my trail?
Down to the bridge he's leading me
What is it he wants me to see?
Aoo-aah...
Aoo-aah...
Aoo-aah...
Already we've arrived, here I am
There's the bridge, where's the man, what a scam!
That story 'bout the bridge isn't true
I'm enjoying myself, what a view!
They say the bridge is not what it is
No one ever comes back... so they say
What could happen to me, anyway?
From away a tall man comes to me...
Has he been here waiting... just for me?
He says there's no more fishing in the lake
But one thing for sure... I'm the catch of the day!
This is what happens
When one looks for gold
Turn'd into gray stone
And down deep you are thrown!
All this is over
All this is over
All this is over
All this is over
