Magnetostratigraphic happenstance
Those of us who live for chaos finally have our chance
To use all of our potential energy
To focus on accelerating entropy
Poles started switching when you left your home
Now that needle's got you drifting towards magnetic unknown
You could compute the hour angle, maybe chart the stars
Or embrace the arbitrary and just set off in the dark
Plan on serendipity
Sure, results may vary but the thrills come cheap and fast
And if you ever find you're in too deep
Dig in a new direction and just don't look back
Poles started switching when you left your home
Now that needle's got you drifting towards magnetic unknown
You could compute the hour angle, maybe chart the stars
Or embrace the arbitrary and just set off in the dark
Pulled from your sleep in the dead of the night in the middle of dreaming
You were on the edge of understanding it all
When you blinked yourself right back into the dark
Poles started switching when you left your home
Now that needle's got you drifting towards magnetic unknown
You could compute the hour angle, maybe chart the stars
Or embrace the arbitrary and just set off in the dark

Fastest car in the Foreman's Champions
Going down to the Golden Antler
Shots like this they never last
He's the fastest car in the Foreman's Champions
Longest night in Schaumburg Village
Signal's weak but the system's willing
Override's been overwritten
As the longest night in Schaumburg Village ends
Brightest mind in the Cygnus system
Laying low and we nearly missed him
Looked again and who'd have guessed
There the brightest mind in the Cygnus system sits

Hide under the cover of night
You've got that weight-of-the-world look underneath your eyes
Find a spot, lay low for a while
And hope that nothing-lasts-forever business still applies
Your belt-fed friend he set his sight on me
But if you let me slide on by I think you'll see this kind of
Incentivizing of psychopathy is a bit short-sighted
To say the least about it
You can't run what you can't hide
Looks like your covert operation agent just went live
Like a mine field and you keep stumbling into
This familiar situation that we've found again
Your belt-fed friend he set his sight on me
But if you let me slide on by I think you'll see this kind of
Incentivizing of psychopathy is a bit short-sighted
To say the least about it
Your belt-fed friend he set his sight on me
But if you let me slide on by I think you'll see this kind of
Incentivizing of psychopathy is a bit short-sighted
To say the least about it

Long Sleeves
03:10
|

As we pass each other say goodbye to the summer
Feel the autumn wind at your back
When the weather's better we will get together
And reminisce about the past
You say you got that feeling when I called this evening
The one you used to feel about me
I said call me in the morning when my coffee's still warm
And my memory's still fast asleep
Summer's end is just a new beginning
So wipe those tears away from your eyes
Trade those long days for some long sleeves
We'll close our eyes and dream away the night

Smoke rolls off to reveal
The hive's a-humming
Not quite what I hoped to find
Is what we had in mind
Second guesses are worth
More than the first
Cause once our wills are resigned
Our thoughts will align
Excuse the interruption but we've gotten off track
Let's allow the prime directive to direct us all back
To recall our common interest and return to the sky
We're floating off higher and higher and higher
Up and over the hills
The clouds are coming
Crowding out all the light
Til it's darker than night
Find yourself on the ground
And paralyzed
Then all together at once
We open our eyes
Excuse the interruption but we've gotten off track
Let's allow the prime directive to direct us all back
To recall our common interest and return to the sky
We're floating off higher and higher and higher
Excuse the interruption but we've gotten off track
Let's allow the prime directive to direct us all back
To recall our common interest and return to the sky
We're floating off higher and higher and higher

On the line with Bell Witch, your call never made it through
I heard it first from Old Kate Batts who heard it first from you
Old rabbit-head was barking when Josh laced up his shoes
But Lucy cast her spell on Jack when Betsy left the room
When John Bell first came calling, I sent him straight away
Then came the invitation for Jim and I to stay
The night to rid the Bell house of their unwanted guest
But it's clear that it was never Kate for whom the trap was set
When Josh walked by that evening, Jack had never pulled the blinds
And much to our misfortune, Josh never learned to lie
It would have broken Betsy's heart, so Josh resigned to leave
But not before Miss Lucy heard about Old Jack and me
On the line with Bell Witch, your call never made it through
I heard it first from Old Kate Batts who heard it first from you
Old rabbit-head was barking when Josh laced up his shoes
But Lucy cast her spell on Jack when Betsy left the room

Life like a dream
Selected scenes stitched together in post
The seams are showing if you look real close
Between the lines where no one ever goes
There is a subplot of interest waiting to unfold
Entangled objects collide and retreat
And you can hear the hum as their spin starts to sync
Leaving infinite options and possible states
Mirrored over the ever expanding space
Sleep like a scene from some other plane
Wake and wonder if the other world still remains
With a stand-in helpfully holding your place
Where you'll return when you can remember the way
Entangled objects collide and retreat
And you can hear the hum as their spin starts to sync
Leaving infinite options and possible states
Mirrored over the ever expanding space
Entangled objects collide and retreat
And you can hear the hum as their spin starts to sync
Leaving infinite options and possible states
Mirrored over the ever expanding space

Was It a Dream?
03:25
|

Walking around in the winter wondering
How long before we're snowed under
Retracting our tongues to find the flakes are only ash
You ask won't you relax
Soon as the words are out my legs give way
On the floor I find myself awake
And asking what just happened
Was it a dream and does it still remain
Was it our hands that set the hills on fire
Or was it the smoke that took our minds
Feeling the flow or swept under
A voice somewhere behind says close your eyes
Before the words are out my eyes are closed
In the dark I find myself alone
And asking what just happened
Was it a dream and does it still remain
