They took him off the throne
Let their inhibitions roam
Conscious of the wrong place
Synthetic distaste
They say I cerate myself to my own gain
Beat me down in to submission till I suffocate
They say As-Salaam-Alaikum, Wa-Alaikum-Salam!
Metaphysical I know
See right through your undertone
Holy lands are in my heart
Now they’re torn apart
They say I placate myself to my own gain
Beat him down into submission for his fantasies
They say As-Salaam-Alaikum, Wa-Alaikum-Salam!
Try the existential mission
Find the rule of thumb, find the rule of thumb
You know I’d like to run and hide from my shadow
A life disguise – So ripped off
It’s no surprise your life arrived while mine was slow
Or so we thought
So ripped off, so ripped off, so ripped off, so ripped off
Get a break no I won’t listen till I suffocate
Try the existential mission
Find your fantasies, find your fantasies, find your fantasies
You know I’d like to run and hide from my shadow
A life disguise – So ripped off
It’s no surprise your life arrived while mine was slow
Or so we thought
So ripped off, so ripped off, so ripped off, so ripped …

They say I’m better off without you
But I just don’t know
Sitting in my bubble with my head turned round
Looking for the answer or a positive sound
Are you prepared to stop & listen?
I’m not sure it’s me you’re kissin’
The sun sets slowly on a distant plain
Swagger with a dagger kills a sun-drenched day
I know it’s gonna rain and it’s alright
I’m living for the day to turn to…?
We’re in a fragile state
A slip-up now and you can shut the gate
The mist floats in & the temperature drops
It’s time to weigh the baggage ‘cause the weather won’t stop
The sun sets slowly on a distant plain
Swagger with a dagger kills a sun-drenched day
I know it’s gonna rain and it’s alright
I’m living for the day to turn to night
But don’t think that I’ll let you walk the line
Everybody seems to handle me just fine
Sitting in the corner with my head turned down
Waiting for the answer or a passionate sound
Swagger with a dagger kills a sun-drenched day
Everybody shows they’re getting fucked in the face
I hear it in my head and it becomes the truth
The mountain if it’s climbed should be tackled by two
Go tackle the breeze and you can tackle me too
The mountain if it’s climbed should be tackled by two
I know it’s gonna rain and it’s alright
I’m living for the day to turn to night
But don’t think that I’ll let you walk the line
Everyone except you seems to give me time
The mountain if it’s climbed it should be tackled by
Mountain if it’s wild could be your child

Hanging by a thread, I cut me down
Expose the girl she don’t want found
By anyone, who’s sent from above
In any case, I need to shout
To prove I’m worth not giving up
I feel discern, through all that you burn
And it’s a shame, spread legs validate and animosity prevails
I’m sick and tired
Our patience expired
Well I can’t breathe out, anymore
You know you had me smiling forever
No matter what it takes, you need to know
The way you break me seems to flow
I know I’m pissed, delirious
And it’s so hard, it separates my sides
But I don’t need incisions there
Dissolving flames, to cinder again
Cause I can’t breathe out, anymore
I know it gets you smiling when I’m down on the floor
If I breathed out, you won’t know
You coulda had me smiling forever
But know I can’t go keep on ignoring what’s not gonna last
To touch up details I’d give it a rest
The seething deranger contemplating with nature
We’re analysing your mind
So when your love leaves you for broke, resolve to punch them in the throat
With anything, you wanted to be
Cause I can’t breathe out, anymore
I know it gets you smiling when im down on the floor
If I breathed out, you won’t know
You coulda had me smiling forever
But know I can’t go keep on ignoring
You know im fuckin’ sick of ignoring what’s not gonna last
My only salvation I’d give it a rest
Deceiving derangers contemplating with nature
We’re analysing your mind

Game Of Drones

All I need is another reason to be late and out on my own
What I feel is the season changing as I break and hammer my phone
Oh what’s a stone, gonna bleed?
I got no need for your disdain
Or shitty pay
You’re not my mate
And if I said it was us against the world
A fuzz of flavour’s enough to savour
Got your back but I won’t play game of drones
I’d rather pick out the shit between my toes
So where’s the justice? Send all our kids to foreign lands they kill for oil and coin
A shallow genepool won’t bring the rednecks any closer to a zero point home
Where I can roam, on the streets
Freedom’s the peasant life for me
Those are the stakes - can’t live off rage
Or blind deceit
And if I said it was us against the world
A fuzz of flavour’s enough to savour
Got your back but I won’t play game of drones
I’d rather pick out the shit between my toes

Frack Your Army

A broken hip for the queen, I should know better than to dream
The world’s salvation takes too long and I’m impatient
God help the royals cause when Fukushima boils
We should know better but it seems ok
It’s our way
The frightened need a license to plant a seed
Protest for Mother Nature, and write on paper
Your greed is faker than the isle of plastic in the sea
If you hear her haunting pleas
No fracking army could stand up to a tsunami
They should know better but until that day
It’s our way, our way, got me low
Pollution isn’t free and if it’s bottled air you seek
The world’s a sick old place I’ll turn the other cheek
As far as new world order goes
Life is cheap and your there to dispose of their mess it’s a joke
I couldn’t sit still when the time to choose a path
A billion people annually will starve
It’s our shame, our way
Got me low, our way
Can’t be true
Nature sees you
Forsake greed and violently oppose

Jump Off The Line

Hey, listen to the words I say
Taste the change and do it brave
Some love black and white but I love grey
Just to leave our broken families
Cut down the tallest of poppies
Hey, kick me in the shin to my dismay
All the while my heart contained you
Point me to the one who set you free
Patiently in happiness and grief oxygen thiefs
Surround and confound me
Glory I see warning signs
Bathe me in shades that I don’t ever want to know
Morning time jump off the line
Deprive me the place where
I don’t ever wanna go ever wanna know
I don’t ever wanna go ever wanna know
Leave me to breathe in hypocrisy
Wasting all your time don’t you see how funny it can be
Shining brighter than the high for me
Glory I see warning signs
Bathe me in shades that I don’t ever want to know
Morning time jump off the line
Smile a little harder cause we’re here today and gone tomorrow
Hey man, we’re gone tomorrow here today and gone tomorrow
We’re fuckin gone tomorrow
Here today and gone tomorrow, hey man we’re gone tomorrow
Here today and gone tomorrow, my heart’s still filled with sorrow

I know I shake your faith, lost face cause I can’t stop jumping around
This is the way that the world can stop, without soul you ain’t got no body of light
I’ll be the cannon that shoots your rocks, I always thought it
Your ignorance a prison to me
‘Bout time you set out for some water
A tongue of sun to burn the herb
Wrap your arms around my telescope
See how far inside the answers go
This is the way that the world can stop
Realise that you’re not just one in the crowd
That plant’s illegal and evil
Nature can’t be illegal, like beagles and seagulls it’s legal to me
Trade Centre 7 collapsin’ you know on 9/11?
Whatchu say?
On 9/11!
Come again?
It didn’t need a plane to fly through!
‘Bout time you set out for some water
A tongue of sun to burn the herb
I see the truth of now and I know somehow
Justice won’t see the light of day
Wrap your arms around my telescope
See how far inside the answers go
Tell me how you see our fragile world?
I’m just waiting for a rosy glasses girl
Show and tell
Ringing bells
Feeling like I’m feelin’ the love again
I know that I’m feelin’ like I’m filling out on the love again,
Feeling like I’m feeling the love again
And I know when they’ve got it wrong, there’s a fire inside that leads me to the truth where I belong
Feeling like I’m feelin’ the love again
Feeling like I’m feelin’ the love again
If you want your mind free of fear re-search every word’s etymology
Guiding your citizen-ship to a conspiracy
Feeling like I’m feelin’ the love again
Feeling like I’m feelin’ the love again

Piracy
02:51

We love our piracy
No sense of irony
We love our piracy
No sense of urgency
We can’t stand the politics, turned our country back some years
That’s why we love anarchy, got no time for bigotry
So we strayed out from the quicksand
Strapped up to the boat
I can’t handle chances that remote
No longer for freedom
It’s the life I know
What’s a refugee then my friend?
Look out for pirates here
Some of them are so queer
Take every job that’s here
Play up the dumbest fears
We all came across the sea, in the name of slavery
Combat to community, don’t give him what’s yours for free
And we strayed out from the quicksand
Strapped up to the boat
I can’t fathom chances that remote
No longer for freedom
It’s the life I know
What’s a refugee then my friend?
What’s a refugee then my friend?
What’s a refugee then my friend?

Hash? Tag Me In

To point the finger, what lingers around
Renew the distance, kicks me to the ground
Not mine to fight for, I’m stuck in a rut
Such indecision, what we could become
I can’t believe her, it’s never enough
Threatens to leave me, every other month
Silence it deafens, glad that’s not my game
I’ll show you my love, in my stupid way
So tired and lazy, I’m falling apart
With indecision, a stick in the mud
I can’t believe her, it’s never enough
Threatens to leave me, every other month
My heart’s in season, she needs to grow up
I’m disappointing, that’s life and it’s tough
I can’t believe her, it’s never enough
Threatens to leave me, every other month
My heart’s in season, she needs to grow up
I’m disappointing, that’s life and it’s tough
That’s life and it’s tough
That’s life and it’s tough
That’s life and it’s tough

Yellow belly brown nose purple nurple blue balls
Ruinin’ perfect skin with your modest way
Based on what I fear
You won’t understand me
But I’ll give you a hey!
I don’t think you want me I’m a little bit uptight
Mother Theresa Holy Vestal Virgin of God!
She swiped it right g-string tight and we’re on our way
Not contained at all
Life just understands me
And I’ll give you a Hey!
Contradictions flaring, I’m a little out of touch
I’m gonna take the easy lay tonight
But what’s the point of spending life judgemental?
No time to combine all that’s existential
Not contained at all
Try just understanding
How Ill give you a hey ahhh
Swipe you right all day ahhh
Sad realities
Contradictions flaring, I’m a little out of touch
I’m gonna take the easy way tonight

In Too Deep

I heard you came from a dark place
On Melancholia Street
You navigated a minefield
But came through in your angelic way
When you appeared on my stairwell
And wrote a message out
I knew right then that your unworthy friend would
Never know that you called
The sparks ignited
I might be in too deep
But I miss you like crazy
I toss & turn in my sleep
How I miss you like crazy
Like kites we blew to the Windsor
And tangled through the next round
You tolerated, the intoxicated
And planted me to the ground
The sparks ignited, I can’t deny it
I might be in too deep
But I miss you like crazy
I reach out deep in my sleep
How I love you like crazy
Ain’t got no problem in my own backyard
No need to worry cause we play it hard
Just take a breath and don’t get spent
I’m hooked on just how you are
Just think the best and run with it
Let’s do our best and run with it
It’s just a test have fun with it
Happiness for no good reason, happiness for no good reason,
Sparks ignited, I can’t deny it
I might be in too deep
But I miss you like crazy
I reach out deep in my sleep
How I love you like crazy
Yeah I might be in too deep
But I miss you like crazy
I toss and turn in my sleep
How I miss you like crazy
How I miss you like crazy
Now I miss you like crazy

Nothing like the horizontal dance, I’m just profilactose intolerant
Close shave against the grain, know how to shake the frame
Share the load but then you tell me who’s to blame - ‘cause I won’t!
Riding out a strain at the beach
Dig my way down into a hole
Cold beer next to my feet ey
Took the risk when I got half the chance, I’m just not one for co-dependance
Contemplation begins, I swear this time I gotta learn
Somehow I have never felt the burn - been so close!
Riding out a strain at the beach
Dig my way down into a hole
Cold beer next to my feet eyy
Banished in disarray
Find a place to call home
Shrink wrappin’ all the way ey

The Green Dream

Outside the space, where I have been
Ain’t nobody to contain all my fears
And when I prayed, to my dismay
They try to take my only medicine away
Outside that frame, you’ll see it goes down alright there
And I can’t do it on my own
I could help feed with the nature of weed
More over time, it will be fine
And come out sooner than they want to believe
Green-dreaming Life
A day at a time
Cut off the chains, you’ll see it goes good with life there?
All that you face, you’re straight up living a nightmare
This could be our new religion
But without the public flogs
I cannot seem to inhale enough weed
I’m on the line, biding my time
It’s coming sooner and I want to believe
Green-dreaming Life, a day at a time
If I could scream out, shatter the Greendream War
Opening minds, Lord knows I tried
To get you here, up in my time, I cannot hide
Peel me like an onion, another layer lost
It could be our new religion
It’s at the point of decision
It could be our new religion
