Every day's the same routine of endless chores and boring details
And you know you're waiting for the perfect condition for your ship to set sail
But of course the climate's always changing
Clining to the past has got you straining
Comes the recognition now you're on a mission that is born to fail
(Leave it! )
Brothers say goodbye
Sisters don't you cry
Changing Tide

There's a feeling about myself that I can't understand
It's a foreboding sense that I see all around the land
When the wheel of fortune turns progressively depraved
It's the manifestation of a biospheric decay
Keep yourself in line, there's no design
The new paradigm is crisis time
Luxury was privilege and I knew it all along
Crisis Time

Welcome my son to where the work is never done
And the hungry are seldom ever fed
The department of false hope is a proving ground for dopes
And they'll grind your tiny bones to make their bread (Hosanna)
So hold your head up high forgotten man
Tomorrow won't be made for you
And everybody's gotta try to lend a helping hand
For god and man there's nothing more to do
Dept. Of False Hope

Wasted days and cigarettes
Cracked cement and palms
Bodhidharma has gone fission
With your vedic mom
Yeah the Sergeant Major is dreamin' of genie
And she's armed with a borrowed polka dot bikini
Oh yeah tomorrow's coming down like dharma and the bomb
Falling down
Falling down
Dharma And The Bomb

Everybody needs a slogan in their pocket or two
It never hurts to have a strategy you can go to
Sometimes I have no sense at all
As most flawed men are won’t to do
Just say fuck you
Pavlovian rude
A menace too
Pay homage to
Fuck You

I can't stop the way I feel
But I can penetrate your religion with a nail
You are mine and we are twine
When we radiate in waves together everything is fine
Hello cruel world do you know that you're killing me?
I don't mind but I could use a little sympathy
I've been blind as a fool can be
My dear cruel world do you ever think about me?
Hello Cruel World

There's something pathetic in the world today
And I don't know how it all began
As if all the shame and punishment will finally make me understand
A word means nothing wanting action
Intentions are valuable as deeds
And a wound can dog you for a lifetime
Unless it only makes you bleed
Everybody knows what's in their heart is right
In Their Hearts Is Right

I don't really care what other people may say
I've gotta go on living my life anyway
Everything is golden, everything's for sale
I'm done with unsubstantiated fairy tales
But out here in the lap of luxury
Unlimited guarantee for your insatiable need
In the land of endless greed
In the emerald forest hear a nasty sound
Land Of Endless Greed

My head is full of ghosts
But I'm no revenant
Despite my resident's rivalry
And I'll be the faithful pilot
On our blind trajectory
Do you want to know a secret
Will you hold it close and dear
This will not be made apparent
But you and I are not alone in here
My Head Is Full Of Ghosts

Now, there's a list of catalysts that hold the heart at bay
They grip the mind and sap the soul and feed on your dismay
And I never understood why you can't see the world this way
The lines are drawn at the break of dawn there's nothing to dismay
It's no, no, no security
No, no no security
No, no no security
Nothing to dismay
Nothing To Dismay

Solemn regret, transgressions fill my head
A measure of success is how well to forget
And the past is dead
Strewn about the battlefield of life are the remainders of history
When convenient we exalt them and pay them such respect
As if we're all in an equivalent trajectory
And trash piles high in the rubble we forgot
The angels of our nature just sit and watch it rot
Past Is Dead

Some people are almost impossible to live with
Some people have faith in the craziest things
They follow outdated conventions that were recorded
But most of it to me all sounds insane
Maybe that's what you need to get you through the night
Maybe you've seen the light
But you know that popular consensus doesn't make it right
Nothing can go on while forever increasing
Popular Consensus

Here is the church
There is the steeple
Open up the door
Corporations are people
Wait what did he say?
What the fuck did he say?
It couldn't last
They had to crash
Some parties are just made that way
Robin Hood In Reverse

There's a world outside but I can't really make it
There's a life to lead but I can't exactly fake it
Yet the mood feels right
But my island is sinking out of sight
I made jetties so they'd catch all the sediment
Removed the rocks and every impediment
But the tide's rising high to wash away my island in the night
The sheltering sky was to be my everlasting lullaby
The Island

Unrepentant vagabond
Plot the new coordinates and cast the map aside
Now I gotta ramble on
Navigate the pitfalls and cross the great divide
The mapmaker's legend gave direction and a key
He set the declination but what good is it to me?
I can't see the rationality
The world's not my responsibility

I'll strike it if I don't like it
Gimme a club and I will have myself a riot
I'm a monkey with a brick on my shoulder
And I'm getting bolder
Let's deny and defame
Let's destroy and recreate in our glorious name
And when the joke of our centrality is upon us
Grovel and decry
Vanity
