Would you like to know What lies beyond all time? What whimsy pulls the shoe strings That make a person's mind? Come taste the magic A whiff of the arcane The universe is full of secrets Most without a name All that is unknown Lies covered in a fog Will we live on to see the Mystery, mystery solved? Would you like to see beyond Expand your cosmic gaze? What spiders weave the little webs That make a person's fate? Can you hear the drum In the pounding of your blood The roar of all creation Cacophony of love Taste the flesh of gods Breathe the spirit deep Imbibe now the sacred host And all the power in its keep All that can't be known Lies covered in a fog Will we live on to see the Mystery, mystery solved?

So many unexamined souls Butterfly nets full of bullet holes I want this I want that Yes I accept So many unwashed drifting minds Time capusules full of thrift store finds I'll take this I'll take that No I won't refuse Now is the time on Brown Word when we trance 3 2 1 Slip into a an altered state of consciousness Separate from the rest Now push that panic button in your skull I gaze into the abyss The abyss looks back at me Keep screaming into the void Let the void scream back at you Whoever fights the monster Could become a monster too Keep screaming into the void Let the void scream back at you And now an interlude For your mind-rending journey to newfound hope What you want is what you want are you what you want or what When a man does a job that's what he becomes Full of dreams to feed an army how he gets 'er done 5 10 15 20 trips around the sun What you see is what you get are you looking close or what What a job does to a man it's easy to forget Full of steam to power dreams it's how he gets 'er done 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 all hard workers go to heaven Coming soon to a reality near you With all amenities Instant lifestyle just add you Open source lobotomies Roll it up and smoke it Put it in a pill and choke it Send a message in a bottle Greetings from the void

We settled into no man's land Walked a line that wasn't there Earth turned to sand and sun to shade Weight of the curse upon us laid Eyes in the dark out beyond the back gate Fingerless touch in the dead of the night Eyes in the dark and a voice on the wind I can't help but wonder where the rest of him is He was just an echo of the past An empty face no longer there Turn of sun and sands of time An eternity paid for his lost crime Eyes in the dark out beyond the back gate Fingerless touch in the dead of the night Eyes in the dark and a voice on the wind I can't help but wonder where the rest of him is We didn't taste when water turned to salt We didn't haste when shadows crawled The touch of evil on every surface The wilting fruits have gained no purchase There's nothing left to sell And no one who will buy We tend this patch of cursed earth Where nothing dead can peaceful lie

V1: Painting with a broad brush Faking every stroke Obscuring with the shadows Mirrors in the smoke Head in the sand ass in the breeze Ch: Piece by piece That's how it comes apart Pulling at the strings Let it all unravel Little by little Can't you stop it before it starts Everything Gonna come glued now Step by step That's how it comes apart Once the cracks begin to show V2: Everyone loves the loudest option But the buyer must beware We're talking about oblivion And no one seems to care 100 seconds to midnight Chorus. Used to sell newspapers And today they sell you soul Wear it for a day or two Then shed it for another role You're anything in fantasy Your name is anything you want Your feelings weigh more than the truth Believe what feels good in the moment All these riches can be yours You know the standard drill A little bit of sugar helps The burn of bitter pills V3: Yesterday's lies are getting cold Tomorrow's heating up Another firehose of views To overturn our cup Horse to water et cetera et cetera Chorus.

There's an urge coming loud and clear And it's talking to you What do you think you're doing? Disembodied voice Saying you don't have a choice Disembodied voice Tell me you don't have a choice There's a call on the telephone And it's pulling at you Now all money's gone And you won't say where you've been What do you think you're doing? Disembodied voice Saying you don't have a choice Disembodied voice Tell me you don't have a choice So now you listen when it asks It's taking everything you have You used to be someone Now tell me you don't have a choice
