Mont Ne

You dance in the echo chamber
Where gods float around your mind
Digging into why they put you
In this place and time
Settle down the river basin as air goes foamy and white
Beautiful mont ne
Gods gift to man they say
Health resort to all the world
Is beautiful mont ne
Break
Don't put your weight in that rope
I don't want you losing hope
I can see from your folded ears
You've been dreading this for years
Rosy cheeks and purer blood
They gain there day by day
In mountain air, water rare
At beautiful mont ne
I can see the corona leakage
At the edges of your form
Static flowing through your being
Grounding out in broken words
Beautiful Mont Ne
For 100 years they sang
Cover over all the forms
Of the ones who came before
Em am c f
If I fall into what I'm not
Came I come back to what I've got
Retreat back to rust and gravel
Every single chance is shot
Beautiful mont ne
For 100 years they sang
But when it doesn't fit
What can we make of it?
Beautiful mont ne
Gods gift to man they say
Shape my form to fit your image
As long as it's got a tail

Phlogistinated
02:57
|
|||
The mustangs fly over the east side of the city
Fueled by the souls lost to profit and plunder
taking you over and checking you out and under
When all check and balances are loaded with cash
and your valuable body turns to ash
as you run out of phlogiston
And I'll keep
Clinging to cows
And keep dodging bullets
They want us to breed faster
we might not get through it
Eat right through our bones
Out of house and home
Scream down the phone
As if anyone's home to hear it
tonight, we'll fight for the future
of the places we've turned into hell
it's a cracking, hollow shell
and you know that a suture won't help
Another tree will fell
Another lie they'll tell
another bullet through the tender
I dig in my claws
And hold on to what's left
I'm slipping and cracking and losing myself
Return to the earth where I'm most worth
Rotting and smelling and yowling as loud as I can

It was one last time that I let myself slip
Colder in the cave than it is in the stream
Merge into bodies, bite at the bit
One more time that I let myself dream
It's one more roll of film
One less chemical reaction
It's one little slip
and the door bursts open
Both beamed off the same ufo
One week later i'm raring to go
Down to the floor and let me roam
Open my heart and weave unto yours
I hope that I stay young forever
I hope the worst's finally over
I hope that the next pissfly that I hit
Finally fuckin sticks
It's one more roll of film
One less chemical reaction
It's one little skip
And I burst open

Take over my body
And leave me misconstrued
Take over my brain
Make unto you
And I don't know when
You'll end in pain
And I don't know how
To explain
Fox will you let me
Take back my mind
Fox will you let me
Go back to the wild
And I don't know when
And where you were
And you can't know
How much it hurts
Fox will you let me
Take back my mind
Fox will you let me
Go back through the cave
When will I see
What I was meant to be
Through screens of human
misunderstanding
Fox will you let me
Let go of this plight
Fox will you let me
Get on this flight

Solace

Take one last look at what you've done
Seconds made in moments
Take one last look at where you’ve gone
Gone for all time
I can’t go back home
where the free spirits roamed
Forests destroyed
Gone for all time
But I can't stay here
And neither can you
where either soul
rings true
My winter coat won’t come in
I’m frozen in the snow again
Silent in the solace
Louder than ever
I dig my claws and remind myself
This is forever
Silently standing on cliff edges
Wondering what was meant
Wind fluttered through my fur
but I can’t have it
Trading scents in the kitchen
Wood pellet stove is lickin
I knew who you were
You knew as mine
Quiet forever
Talk for all time
And you cant know
How much it hurts
And you can’t know
what you’re worth
Everything's breathing
Your hearts still beating
Influence left
Gone for all time
The hospital you were born in
Soon won’t be there
Memories forged here
Floating on the air

You opened your teeth and smiled at me
The beast I tried to tame
I asked you to remember me
You didn't feel the same
I thought we had agreed
To keep your claws sheathed
I thought you wanted me
But I was being preyed
On
The reflector disks in your eyes
Threw up caution lights
Heavy breath and yellow eyes
Sighing in delight
I guess I should have known better
To be playing with a predator
I guess I should have known better
Or I'd be here today
I wish you would have played fair
Before you went out of control
I wish you would have heard my cry
Before you took my soul

G em am c
I'm playing guitar at 3am
And the upstairs neighbors are knocking on the floor
I have to get out what I feel right now
Before they come down with a .44
G em am c
Fields and valleys of concrete
A Walmart would look neat
Places where people walked
On two or four bare feet
G em am d7
Everything that's been laid out for me
Everything was here before
Everything that was under you
Everything you were
G em am c d
G em am c
Clear cut forest, bridge for convenience
Bodies dug up for bike paths
No part of leveling a mountain
Will ever help me get to sleep
History saved by burning it down
Amphitheaters underwater
Keep your bars across your cave
Don't let anyone go down
G e am d7
Cause they might get stuck
End up with bad luck
When the grim reaper can't reach you
You know you're truly fucked
A coyote on a fencepost
On a day that never happened
Sating me of things I worry
Will one day happen again
Everything that's here before me
Everything you were
Everything that's been destroyed
Your long forgotten fur
Everything's come down around me
Everything you were
Everything you dug your claws in
Have I ever seen your fur?
Static cut in on the radio
To tell me it's okay
Slide the van door open wide
There will come another day

Sometimes you're a starling
Sometimes you're a kite
You're a hyena from early to mid afternoon
You're a stray dog at night
It's the most amazing thing I've ever seen
How you will not act like a human being
When you put on your special coat and
You made your special lunge for my throat
Between you and me
It was, it was really exciting
It's the most alarming thing I've ever seen
How you will not act like a human being
It's the most incredible thing I've ever seen
How you refuse to act like a human being
In the starlight
In the starlight
In the starlight
In the starlight
In the starlight
In the starlight
In the starlight
In the starlight
In the starlight

Gardening At Night
04:46

I see your money on the floor
I felt the pocket change though all
The feelings that broke through that door
Just didn't seem to be too real
The yard is nothing but a fence
The sun just hurts my eyes
Somewhere it must be time for penitence
Gardening at night is never where
Gardening at night
Gardening at night
Gardening at night
The neighbors go to bed at ten
Call the prayer line for a change
The charge is changing every month
They said it couldn't be arranged
We echoed up the garbage sound
But they were busy in the rows
Which fell enough to see the sun
Gardening at night just didn't grow
I see your money on the floor
I felt the pocket change though all
The feelings that broke through that door
Just didn't seem to be too real
Gardening at night
Gardening at night
Gardening at night
Your sister said that you're too young
They should know they've been there twice
The call was two and fifty-one
They said it couldn't be arranged
I see your money on the floor
I felt the pocket change though all
The feelings that broke through that door
Just didn't seem to be too real
We echoed up the garbage sound
But they were busy in the rows
Which fell enough to see the sun
Gardening at night just didn't grow
Gardening at night
Gardening at night
Gardening at night
