We can’t escape what we have done
We must face what we have become
Desensitised emotionally numb
Slave to the machine’s and the guns
When more isn’t enough
Well then that’s enough
You’re choking out the love
Will someone pull the lotus out of the mud?
Maria ow ow ow
Where are ya now
Will you come out here
Free us from fear
Complacent safe and sound
Morally devoid and down
A new reality coming around
She’s gonna lift us up from this down
Maria ow ow ow
To free ya how how
Maria ow ow ow
Free her and you’ll free us all
Maria let the goddess appear
Ow ow ow ow
Where do we go now
We struggle with the balance of power
But the world is always changing somehow
We can no longer take from her
We can no longer deface her
We can not replace her
Earth Mother
Maria ow ow ow
To free ya how how how
Maria ow ow ow
Free her and you’ll free us all
Complacent safe and sound
Morally devoid and down
A new reality coming around
She’s gonna lift us up from this down
The critics and the cynics abound
They always trying to steal your power
A new reality coming around
She’s gonna lift us up to our crown
Rebirth of a new Earth
And a new sun
Remember that we are one
But so many things distorted through oppression
Like the Devine, the Sacred, the Goddess the Feminine
Oh Requiem

New Victim
05:41
|
|||
If I run where will I go
How will I know you won’t suck me back in
This game’s getting old and so am I
As well as tired of being the puppet on your string
The dead end is nigh
So put away your knife
You’re no good at lying
So give up the façade
And all your fucking whining
Power monger time to surrender
Time you got a new victim
Someone to target take for granted
Someone to take your shit out on
Power monger time to surrender
Time you got a new victim
Gullible good hearted
Vulnerable you love it
A toy for your manipulation
You live for the differences
Contrasting colours
Contrasting values
Vultures and martyrs
But love and hate have a fine line
Both of which can be blind
In a narrow mind
The dead end is nigh
So put away your knife
You’re no good at lying
So give up the façade
And all your fucking whining
Power monger time to surrender
Time you got a new victim
Someone to target take for granted
Someone to take your shit out on
Power monger time to surrender
Time you got a new victim
Gullible good hearted
Vulnerable you love it
A toy for your manipulation
Eeeeeeeeeee
Heya owwwww
Heya owwwww
Heya owwwww
Heya ow ow ow ah ah ow ow
Your grudge is my forgiveness
Your resistance my acceptance
Your attachment my release
So fuck off and leave me in
Peace
Peace
Do you even know what that fuck’n word means?
Just say the word
You’ll save the world
Just say the word forgive
And let live
Mother fucker time to surrender
Time you got a new victim
Someone to target take for granted
Someone to take your shit out on
Power monger time to surrender
Time you got a new victim
Gullible good hearted
Vulnerable you love it
A toy for your manipulation
New Victim Get a
New Victim Get a
I want it fair want it fair
Just to be seen as equal
Want it fair want it fair
Aren’t we all just equal?
Fuck off and get a
New Victim

Where did you go my love
You’ve never even been
I’m always floating around in the ether
Trapped in the worlds of in between
Mi Corazon Mi Corazon
How much more can this wait this torture go on
Mi Corazon She carries on
Somehow my heart she carries...
I wanna be, I wanna be with you
Not heart debris with you
I wanna see you I wanna see you you
I wanna feel you I wanna feel..new
Kin kindred souls we are
But how ma much long I’m starved
Don’t leave me long in the dark
Coz Mi Corazon you have my heart
I wanna be with you I wanna be with you
I wanna see you I wanna see all of you
I wanna feel you I wanna feel you all the way through
I wanna taste you I wanna taste all of you
We can no longer hide
We can no longer be deprived
Kin kindred souls we are
But how ma much long of this torture
Don’t leave me long in the dark
Coz Mi Corazon you have my heart
And how much longer can this go on
Oh C'mon break the silence with me
I wanna be with you I wanna be with you
I wanna see you I wanna see all of you
I wanna feel you I wanna feel you all the way through
I wanna taste you I wanna taste all of you
We can no longer hide
We can no longer be deprived
Your will has been paralysed
But you know too well that you’re mine
I wanna ugh ah

Predator

Predator on the staff
Predator I called his bluff
Can you believe they defended him
Said he was just having a laugh
Ha Ha Ha
That makes you all predators
Predator is what you are
Predator yes you yes you are
Like that predator dragged me alongside their moving car
Just like that predator drugged your drink at the bar
Don't wanna be seen anymore
Don't wanna be seen
Don't you look at me
Don't you fucking look at me
Leave me nowhere
Nowhere to go
How dare you try and censor me
You moral less fucks
I won't give in and I won't give up
I won't have you shut me up
Predator is what you are
Predator yes you yes you are
Like that predator dragged me alongside their moving car
Just like that predator drugged your drink at the bar
Fuck it
Why's it always someone you think you know
Why's it always someone you did nothing to provoke
If I say nothing well then I really condone (don't you condone)
Then how dare you abandon me and leave me on my own
How dare you condone a
Predator is what you are
Predator yes you yes you are
Like that predator dragged me along side their moving car
Like that predator drugged your drink at the bar
Fuck It
What the fuck
What the fuck is this shit
No I wont' put up
I won't put up with it
Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes you
You you you you you you you you you ya you
No No No No No you know you know no you are
You’re scum
Fuck'n predator

Sick of It
05:40
|
|||
Perplexed by the state of humanity
As we reside sedate or in anxiety
We could speak up against this society
Instead we just drink up against our sobriety
I’m sick of it of this shit
Our world’s sick and I’m
Sick of it
These petty pathetic conflicts
These shameful playground politricks
These self evasive hypocrites
These cold abrasive apathetics
We’ve all got to own up to it
Our world’s sick and I’m
Sick of it
As without ya know so within
The turbulence it’s only a mirroring
And illness prevails here
Despite our wealth
Do you think it’s to do with the alienation
Of our natural selves
I’m sick of it of this shit
Our world’s sick and I’m
Sick of it
These petty pathetic conflicts
These shameful playground politricks
These self evasive hypocrites
These cold abrasive apathetics
We’ve all got to own up to it
Our world’s sick and I’m
Sick of it
Sick
Sick of It
Aren’t you sick of it
Perplexed by the state of humanity
As we reside sedate or in anxiety
We could speak up against this society
Instead we just drink up against our sobriety
I’m sick of it of this shit
Our world’s sick and I’m
Sick of it
These petty pathetic conflicts
These shameful playground politricks
These self evasive hypocrites
These cold abrasive apathetics
We’ve all got to own up to it
Our world’s sick and I’m
Sick of it
Our world’s sick and I’m
Sick of it
Our world’s sick and I'm
Sick of it
We all share the burden of it
Our world’s sick and I’m sick of it

Enigma
03:52
|

I know you’re in there
I know I feel your light again here
Behind that mask
Behind that stare
I knew the enigma would reappear
And where are ya now
Moving through clouds
How long can the chase continue
When my shadows down
I cast them all out
Hope knew I’d find you again one day
And I found you
I know you're in there
I know I feel your light again here
And it’s getting nearer
Behind that mask
Behind that stare
I knew the enigma would reappear
A lost embrace
One would be all it takes
To keep hold of every minute
Encompass every concealed hour
In anonymity
You sit still and silently
I’ll keep your secret if you keep me
Ha you best keep me
Coz I know you’re in there
I know I know I know
It’s you I feel the light of the phantom
Again it’s here
Behind that mask
Behind that stare
I knew the enigma would reappear
I knew the enigma would reappear
And I know again you’ll reappear
Who is this figure I hold so dear
You’re always here

In Order of Wonder
07:09
|
|||
We awake in our misery
This mess we’ve made
And nothing can save you
From entropy
I notice that you’re drowning
But this will all evaporate
Some have to sink to the bottom
Just to float to the top again
And will the sun still hang in the sky
Will the world keep turning
The end of this life
End of the world you had warning
And it’s a mountain we climb
And a mystery how to survive
And when it’s too late we ask why
And wonder
Where did we go wrong
In relief I hear you sigh
Another day is dawning
I watch you come back to life
Consciousness uprising
I know it feels like you're drowning
But this will all evaporate
Some have to sink to the bottom
Just to float to the top again
Will the sun still hang in the sky
Will the world keep turning
The end of this life
End of the world you had warning
And it’s a mountain we climb
And a mystery how to survive
And when it's too late we ask why
And wonder
Where did we go wrong
Where did we go wrong
Where do we belong
And where did we come from
So why not love
Why not peace
Why not an open hand
Instead of a fist
Why cry
Why resist
Why not try
Why not persist
Like the sun that hangs in the sky
Like the world that keeps turning
The end of this life
End of the world you had warning
And it’s a mountain we climb
And a mystery how to survive
And when it’s too late we ask why
And wonder
Will the sun still hang in the sky
Will the world keep turning
The end of all love
Will be the end of the world you had warning
We made this mountain we climb
And it a misery to survive
And if it's not too late can we ask why
And wonder
Where did we go wrong
I notice that you're drowning
But this will all evaporate
Some have to sink to the bottom
Just to float to the top again
