Deep Water 04:22
I survived the deep waters So far to sink Tossed out like Bantha fodder Almost extinct And I didn't even need to be there I really didn't have to stay I told myself I was alright But thats all on me Hold back those tendencies You have my sympathies You must be tired You've run around my mind a hundred times Your trial by fire Will temp your eye disguised as fancy wines That all sounds nice How do you want to cross the finish line? You have my sympathies A hand on your arm Hold back those tendencies They go too far

Thoughtless 03:48
Alone again and I know why Card on the table Theres no compromise Rehearsed justification Your default disguise Its holding us hostage You wouldn't look me in the eye Fast talk and insults The way you handled that is thoughtless I'm told Blinded by words You must think that I am uninformed Aimless these go I need a walk before this gets uncontrolled I'm right but I'm wrong The way I handled that was thoughtless I'm told We can't perpetuate this state We never learned to communicate If you need some time I'll wait A solid plan to contemplate The genesis of our reality Didn't make out inquiry We only act in hyperbole One day you'll see the forest for the trees In my life I never What did you say? How dare you How many times? Whatever I guess I should have known better How many jabs can you get in? Leaving me with all your lies How many tears can you squeeze in Leaving you knowing that I tried It wouldn't hurt if you had put a little work in It couldn't hurt if you had put a little work in I know that I tried And would till I died

K1NG CRA8 04:10
The wind is blowing across the sand My hands are buried in my pockets And as I look out to the sea The salty air clings to me The storm is coming and I'm stuck Memory lapse run amuck The waves are tall and I am high They're crashing down by my side The castles made of sand Bow down to King Crab Self destruction natures bold Wet claws the hole walk home The waves are pranksters in disguise They're crashing down by my side It starts to rain but I don't mind I'm really high Philosophobia Philosophobia

I feel at home in the dark Am I the things I used to fear? I feel at home in the dark Am I the things I used to fear? I feel at home in the dark I feel at home in the dark I feel at home in the dark I feel at home in the dark I lost my one good eye It gave me perspective Under the night sky Dark forces connected We enlist machine machine All hail machine machine

Ghost Dance 04:05
Lost in the woods past 12:15 Theres nothing left to eat When suddenly I spot a gathering of dancing entities Theres a crow looking at me I see it through the trees It sees what I see I'm in disbelief Theres a Pharaoh twerking on me A Cleric and a Witch getting frisky The Ghost Dance gets funky Theres Cowboys and Shogun and Vikings A Prince and Princess, Geishas and Queens Romans, Scots, Saxon Kings The Ghost Dance aims to please Its the hottest discotheque in the paranormal scene Lost in the crowds near Elvis Presley Someones lost a spleen I can't believe I'm witnessing this debauchery I see the crow looking at me And like a prophecy Gandhi is talking but its 4:15 Theres a Pharaoh twerking on me A Cleric and a Witch getting frisky The Ghost Dance gets funky Theres Cowboys and Shogun and Vikings A Prince and Princess, Geishas and Queens Romans, Scots, Saxon Kings The Ghost Dance aims to please Its the hottest discotheque in the paranormal scene Theres a Hopi dancing around a tree A Persian and a Caveman getting tipsy The Ghost Dance isn't free You gotta ditch that smelly old body You can hang with a Mayan or a Swede Or kick it with some Maori or some Taiwanese The Ghost Dance is super trendy What better way to spend all eternity

Watchers 03:30
We watch for oddities and system scrambles Invader alerts are not too much to handle We watch the night turn to day Watch the night turn to day Lately theres been watchers on the wall Its been hazy but we see through it all Lately theres been watchers on the wall Its been hazy but we see through it all Error error network failure Monitors out theres nothing to see Remain calm and breath Theres a plan for when the systems been breached (We require cheat codes) Error error network failure Monitors out theres nothing to see Remain calm and breath Theres a plan for when the systems been breached Lately theres been watchers on the wall Its been hazy but we see through it all Lately theres been watchers on the wall Its been hazy but we see through it all Error error network failure Monitors out theres nothing to see Remain calm and breath Theres a plan for when the systems been breached

about

This album was a 2 year process of dealing with life. We all lose some, we all win some. We lose ourselves and have to learn to find our way back. This record is all that mixed with the process of learning new techniques both musically and visually and simply finding a new way of doing things.
