Cataclysmic Love
03:12
|
|||
In my heart I'm such a fuss
Permissive and promiscuous
I was made with so much love to give
In the past I collected dust
Watching the world with wanderlust
Now I shall love you as long as I shall live
We share the treasures of our secret abyss
The untarnished oasis of our forbidden wilderness
We can free our fears like ghosts to a better place
Tears of hope even on our darkest days
When I was a little girl hiding in plain sight
I viewed the world in black and white
Before I knew it things were simple no more
There wasn't much of which I could be sure
But as we spend our days together
In this feeling that will last forever
You fill me with emotions of all that I adore
At your cataclysmic love my heavens scream
The insatiable flames purr and hiss
I'm filled with the divine feminine whatever that means
I'll even love myself if you insist
We share the treasures of our secret abyss
The untarnished oasis of our forbidden wilderness
We can free our fears like ghosts to a better place
Tears of hope even on our darkest days

You're playing it cool and smart but inside you're raging
You're a sycophant a worthless hypocrite not even worth engaging
It's the concept not the label that makes you unstable
You really thought you brought something to the table
You can go away no one's asking you to stay
You never evolved a day past
Being someone who belittles others just for laughs
Like your mediocre ancestors before you
You let other noncontributing social parasites do your thinking for you
You don't know my bones or my chromosomes
You're naive to percieve what you see
You must feel so alone in your misery
Well that's fine, that's fine by me
The world is changing and you're scared
I hope your life is a fucking nightmare
You say I'm mentally ill, well you're not wrong
That's blatantly apparent to anyone who listens to my songs
You're mistaking the cure for the cause
You'd have your ignorance legislated into laws
It's not just transphobia in which you're swimmin'
Your attitude reflects disdain for all women
Your stupidity supersedes your use
I pray to God that you don't reproduce
You don't know my bones or my chromosomes
You're naive to percieve what you see
You must feel so alone in your misery
Well that's fine, that's fine by me
The world is changing and you're scared
I hope your life is a fucking nightmare
Stomp the fascists out, tread on them!
No safe space for hate
Stomp the fascists out, tread on them!
Before it's too late
Stomp the fascists out, tread on them!
With a high heeled kick to the ass
Smash their hierarchal society into pieces of broken glass!

Garden of Demons
04:09
|
|||
Caressed by moonlight your raven hair shines blue like the snow
on a winter's night as the autumn hibernates
Enwreathed in your darkness, in your warm embrace I glow
A moment eternal where time disintegrates
In the dread of life's flow
I'm a carried by your gentle river
A sedimentary soul under curse self-imposed
Your lonely eyes upon me mean I am forgiven.
You are so lonely, I want to fix you
You are so lovely, I want to feel you
You look so lost, I want to find you
You are so sweet, I want to keep you
A benevolent chemical tempest rages in me
The door is open and everything changes that you see
Your eyes and heart forget the past
Damage fades away from my and I'm under a spell
From my most spacebound fantasies for you I fell
Into your garden of demons I was cast
You are so lonely, I want to fix you
You are so lovely, I want to feel you
You look so lost, I want to find you
You are so cute, I want to keep you
I can be your dark angel, baby
and you can be my vampire
We'll let the flames burn into the night with desire
I know it's a little cliché but baby that's okay
I want somebody to love me that I won't scare away

Nature, Reclaim Me
04:21
|
|||
Another amaranthine rain cascades into my bottomless well
Cold unrelenting pain, a dampened day in Hell
A wound in this garden of my life, I've carved for myself
Eviscerate, deflorate this paradise
Dig darkly deeper into the wicked ways of this world
Tomorrow's forests uprooted of glorious potential
At which time seemed inconsequential, it's transcendental
As this world blackened I sought escape within
Digging a well to drown myself in
Nature, reclaim me! buried by shadows and time
Nature, reclaim me! I die
Nature, reclaim me! I meet my demise
Nature, reclaim me!
I hold myself afloat til I ascend to the top
The rain lasts forever never gonna stop
Will I die alone? Like an anchor I descend
Is the light I see my rescue or my end?
Survival began when life became lethal
A free for all of good versus evil
Human nature spawned corruption and contagion
I'm drowning in the sorrow of my own creation
I gave up and died years like cobwebs unwound
The Earth covered the well where I had drowned
The Cacophony never made a sound
Light never left that dying land
For my taste of life was bitter
Summer was a quest to love again
I was the grim frostbitten Winter
Nature, reclaim me! buried by shadows and time
Nature, reclaim me! I die
Nature, reclaim me! Can you dig it?
Nature, reclaim me! I die

Jamie was sitting in her room playing Minecraft
She hadn't been to school in weeks because it wasn't safe
The cops came and took her away from her family
They said "You don't belong any place."
She tried to use the bathroom and wanted to play a sport
Bullying your children is what your elected representatives support
They say that we're just pretending
They say the world must be ending
You're zombies of the media you eat what they feed ya
We have always been, you are just a trend
Molly was living on the street
On a diet of week-old food and sleep
Like 40% of unhoused youth
She carried too inconvenient a truth
Now she'd rather live alone with no money in her pocket
Than go back to living in a closet
They say that we're just pretending
They say the world must be ending
You're zombies of the media you eat what they feed ya
We have always been, you are just a trend
Ronnie came back from the war
She said she didn't know what she fought and bled for
She said the only thing she knew was killing
She spiraled into addiction
When her wife died she fell into deep depression
But that didn't stop her transition
Islan was a young professional
Daughter to her loving mother
Her asshole boyfriend murdered her when his friends laughed at him
He said he was fooled by his lover
After a 12 year sentence he will be free
To see his fucking family
They say that we're just pretending
They say the world must be ending
You're zombies of the media you eat what they feed ya
We have always been, you are just a trend
They want you to hide
They want you to hold it all inside
They want to deride
Progress that took decades to arrive
We will survive
Outlive them all and thrive

Last Train to Nowhere
03:06
|
|||
I'm hopping on the last train to nowhere
I've been riding this train all my days
And too my surprise the train to nowhere
hasn't taken me anyplace
I'm not really sure where I'm headed
I just kindof wind up there
But I can give a description of the bridges I have burned
That have led me to this thoroughfare
I'm hopping on the last train to nowhere
I've been on the road for so long
Soaking up all the fun from all the somewheres that I can
Cause nowhere is where I belong
Every now and then I meet a friendly face
Someone to share my company
They always get off at one stop or the next
No one wants to go nowhere with me
I've been sleeping in this boxcar for sometime
My head's all trapped in a daze
This track is a rollercoaster
And the map to myself is a maze
All I got's my purse and mirror
But I hate to look at my face
I want to jump into the moonlit river and disappear without a trace
I meet the porter at the station
He says who or whatever you are, you have to pay
But I don't have any money
I drank and smoked it all away
He disappeared before my very eyes
The conductor drove the train without a head
The engine was on fire and all the passengers were dead
Now the eyes of the law are on me
But I didn't kill nobody I swear
I just stare out the window
Riding on the train to nowhere
Riding on the train to nowhere and I don't even care
Riding on the train to nowhere, I don't even feel despair

Eyes of the Void
04:25
|

For the brief time stardust becomes us
A trial period of reality exists
In this time between two great nothings
We experience the extremes of love and death
And everything in between
It's all great well I mean
When I can be euphoric with you
When you see the beauty in all but yourself
Your eyes are prisms that showed me the colors
Every day can be an adventure
When you are loved by someone special
When you change and evolve together
Like we're supposed to do
I feel like I am glowing
I see you changing too, your own gift to this life
Our paths are our own yet entwining
Your smile is worth the tears of angels
You take me to strange and beautiful places
When we're together I can see
Beauty in this reality
When you see the beauty in others but not yourself
Your eyes are prisms that showed me the colors
Every day can be an adventure
When you are loved by someone special

Almost Corporeal
05:20
|
|||
Fallen angels dance the night away
Shambling zombies shuffle with craze
Tortured hums spew from burning guitars
Tears evaporate like dying stars
A tortured soul drenched in kerosene burns to beyond
A spectral semblance returns from oblivion
In the glow of the moon I burn down to my bones
Such sweet agony my final dying moans
Don't cry it's all so phantasmagorical
From the embers of creation, I'm almost corporeal
You are all that is beautiful to me
For the world and all that live here it's too late
Nothing we do , we can placate ourselves
But to what unjust fate?
All we can do is pass the time and hold it all in
And break it down so it begins again
In the glow of the moon I burn down to my bones
Such sweet agony my final dying moans
Don't cry it's all so phantasmagorical
From the embers of creation, I'm almost corporeal
My soul dwells in the spirit world, in a castle of bone
In fantasies that kept me company
Bask in the funeral pyre, you're never alone
The infernal passion sets you free
