Prelude
00:43
|
|||
I’ve seen the dawning of day
I have seen all her mysteries
Taught through our ancestral ways
Through our memes and our ribosomes
Though the mystery prevails
We can’t re-write all history
So come along with me

Hands of The Dead
03:52
|
|||
Fate is a memory
Blistered faces in the sun
While the sea brings the tides of wine
So much damage getting done
High upon the mountain top
Looking out into the sea
Businessmen they shake the hands of war
Three books will destiny
Wild men, cast their futures and their lots
Rewrite the manuscript
Break the chain
Crack the whip
We will ride
We will ride

Scientific Method
04:24
|

The road of time is immeasurable
A continuum we share
There is science in the air
Let’s dig up fossils and roll the bones
There’s a heritage we share
There’s a spirit everywhere
Love Fossil will save me
Love Fossil will save me
So you claim to be part of the loneliest heart
So you claim to be part of the loneliest heart
We’ve got one more chance to dance in the night with the fire
And the science of desire
Time is on the way
Science knows your name
I won’t live again
There are luddites across the way
Let’s bring them home for bread to break
This is a chance we all should take
Let’s plant on earth the human stake

The Cosmonaut
04:28
|
|||
They saw the monkey up
With science in his cup
Beyond the stratosphere uniting
A race of East and West
To see whose man is best
Damn that cosmonaut was gorgeous
Flight make right
When does fight make right
Beyond the atmosphere uniting
East verses West
Whose man is best
Beyond that gilded Iron Curtain

Demiurgic
04:41
|
|||
Don’t run on your dream man
Because the monster remains
It’s a sad situation knowing that we had to go it alone
Now it’s us to feel the shame
I had a dream boy
Casted a seed
Planted a scene
I had a dream
I want to feel like I’m home
And kick a whole through the son
Who’s side are you on...anyway
It was a bad mistake to let it go this long
I heard a voice in the sky
You called it 4th of July
I saw the planes flying by
You called it 4th of July
You heard voices

The Wound
07:17
|
|||
Smoke stacks exploding, shorelines eroding
Will there be more bombs dropped next year?
My heart is imploding from the pain we’re all holding
Will there be more bombs dropped next year?
I thought a lot about this now
What are we up against?
People who rather we would not
Because it’s not in their good book
There’s no need for the fear
We’ve had millions of years
We have a lot to answer for
We have a lot to question more
Hey mister man what did you do?
With all the continents abused
Did it mean that much to you
When you’re a skeleton too?
You put the wound in my head
Maybe I’ll remember all the things that you said
You put the wound in my head
Maybe I’ll remember all the things that we’ve read

Immanentize The Eschaton
05:23
|

Dear mister preacher you told me a story
One day of heaven and hell
My telescope doesn’t see the place,
in the books that you sell
I got confessions to make
I am ready to feel the earth that is real
My heart feels the glory of the humans in the field,
let us heal
Give me your Bible, your Koran, your Torah
I need fuel for the night
My heart feels the glory of their
Fire burning bright in the night
It’s been a long time coming, I’m over you
We got a world we can work with
We have the seeds for the field
We got the architects building
All the power for the free
So the sermon that I’m feeling
Comes alive with you and me

Beggars Choose
05:53
|
|||
To break away from chains, I saw the beggars in the cave
I watched the candle light the way
I watched the shadows change
Who are you to strap me down
Who are you to let me out
I saw the image light the way
Watched the shadows change
I watched the channels change
To break away from chains
I won’t be lying around to save your slaves
To walk the street again
I won’t be lying around to watch your dead
I’m calling all my folks outside the cave
There are a million ways that we can land this plane
Did I call your name?
Heaven is out of the cave

Memes and Ribosomes
02:27
|
|||
I’ve seen the dawning of day
I have seen all her mysteries
Taught through our ancestral ways
Through our memes and our ribosomes
Though the mystery prevails
We can’t re-write all history
So come along with me
Though the mystery prevails
We are free
You can’t solve anything
Unless we agree
