Blue is the color of soul riverside Yellow makes plans green genocide Red stares the yellow ones in their eyes Who's prey think they're serving the sunrise Crowd smiles counting their sheep While the wolves cull them to sleep Planetary Temple is their watcher Lick the electric hand that feeds

Inch by inch the night eclipsed the water Black slipped down this side of town toward us Radio waves echo through pave to warn us Deaf ears hear only the sound of vultures Underneath the satin screen Unearths a plan that's colored green A movement that is still by day Unhatches from its carbon egg A global green turns red Wash the tide with brainwashed minds Cleanse away the minds that stray from what they told us Electric waves in concrete caves conform us To teach the tribe to ride the tide contorted

The sky paints the flame of your heart Smoke rise fills the world with your art Sustain, plans remain in your name Your game bind the globe you claim to save We all run to get in line To run from the line Our ancient fathers of time Roll over Sanskrit lines The world sits inside of your hand Your plates spinning as you command The planes to crash as they fly The sky scrapes and crumbles from oh so high
5.
Underneath red city streets the veins of time are found A mask so bright that I can hardly see you Running through dust rock deep so billowed underground Amassed so high that light will shine right through you Watch the herding masses flock With the winders of the clock A passerby of century lines Keeps time as years go by Echoes from lives ago Speak of the past in present tense A river flowing silently carries capillary time Adrift in the mire is a forgotten amendment A softly voice of old and new will tell you of its crime A continuity of agenda The branches overgrowing Weep while they're willowing A passerby of centuries lies Covered in man's disguise Echoes from lives ago Speak of the past in present tense

(today's forecast is hot hot hot, so get to your nearest camp for a vaccine to cool your bones. Family photos for 89.99 courtesy of your neighborhood drones. Remember the Temple is watching so take your meds and eat your rations and listen to your chips...Thinkers are sinkers; brainwaves drown the mind) You clutch ancient text to rehearse Your silver tongue can't pay universe Running over the ocean till current and new A drowned mind will televise and turn blue Bloodline pastime so you can make your mark Sunshine blowing in the air tide brings light upon your dark Mirror covered gently by orchestrated steam Flowing is the main stream, a river like a dream Prison mind, talking heads of lies Holographic life in our eyes Reawaken sense that fell blind Inside you will find spirit mind

Staring is the sun at dawn A crack awakens sleeping eyes A monolith where plans are drawn Is easing our demise The figureheads will print our days A debt ensures that we will pay The prison guard has locked the door A keyless world will beg for more Disguising the sun Blocked rays has begun The fool in the ground His head will spin round By midday a march will grow Towards light right to the private lands A search for justice and for those who left sky in our hands The figureheads are printing green A round table sight unseen Closing in on self decay A bank run won delay That bright old star has gone to rest The hourglass keeps counting sand A nocturne set into the west A clock with restless hands The conduit is closing now The field reveals spherical plow Crop filled circle literature Speaks warnings into earth

If you want to see the wreck Free the mind that lies with In the temple of entanglement Sullen eyes sunk so deep Dig a tree buried six feet Reawaken spirits from a time that's passing by Excavate the sleeping sounds Of past lives underground Listen to the spirit sound Echoes coming from the ground The rabbit hole keeps going down Saving grace of inner space A rat race of the human race Against the overseers of our lives who count our time Cut the cord from overlords Umbilical binds unto our minds Open eyes of sun See the snakes one by one A pressed suit and a fake smile Open wide, take a step inside The third window door See the sky on the floor You will find salvation lies Open mind, take a step inside Saints go marching through the streets Wormhole veins reclaiming Love for all that is and was and ever will be free The shadow suits will run and hide Fear that ideas never die Ocean wide the currents break on the shore of our minds Liquid thoughts uncover truth Vaporize the prison youth Set the stage for a new day The final act tyrant tirade A broken levy colors streets With sound of golden waves Ships of space pass free in rays A new dawn vessel for today Silence broken only by the bird and passing word See the sky and silver sun And know your freedom you have won Daytime sky flies in those eyes
