commodaro told me that
we will gain a day soon if we ever
talk about O.M.C.I
ok we do this now
even though i said i’d be alright
too many people and too many true lies
oh redefine this as nocore whatsoever
indulge in never going there
the sky would drop for a while
doing all the stuff that makes you feel sick
i feel like vomiting
the flowers and the bile
you took a little · i saved a little
piece of the divine that named you so hollow
can’t cross my little · bones oh so brittle
i don’t understand · no reason to be a man
then you took a little · i saved a little
piece of the divine that named you so hollow
can’t cross my little · bones oh so brittle
i really don’t see why this is bound to be a tie
anyone could walk through this
it’s sounding like a sign
turned on by a summer kiss
i reresign
commodaro told me that
we will gain a day soon if we ever
talk about O.M.C.I
ok we do this now
even if it means
that you are getting
twice the pleasure of consensustain each one
or the other
intimate or not it doesn’t say
coming home and i go my way

AND I GOT TO DO
ALL THE THINGS THAT WENT UNSAID
WONDER IF I JUST MIGHT
SOME CHEW AWAY
CHANGE THE LOCKER DOOR
CHANGE EVERYTHING FOR THE BETTER
THERE ARE SO MANY CHORES
AND I’M HERE · GRATING ON MY BED
IMAGES OF A LIGHT THAT I GOT TO
REACH FOR · BUT I GOT TO DO
THE THINGS YOU SAID
BEFORE I CAN START
OVERNIGHT SENSATION
THEN TOTAL ADMIRATION
I JUST HAVE TO SAY THAT SOMETHING WITHDREW
I’M PEELING THE LEMON AND FOUNDING THE NEW
I LOST MY CONCENTRATION
IT’S FULL RETALIATION
BREAKING THE FLOW WHEN THERE’S NOTHING TO DO
YOU SAY IT’D BE FINE WHEN I’M NOT IN THE MOOD
NOW I HAVE DONE
ALL THE THINGS THAT WERE IN MY HEAD
THEY FADED EASILY
I’VE SEEN IT BEFORE
CHANGE EVERYTHING FOR THE BETTER
AND I GOT TO CLOSE
NOW I’M HERE · DOING NOTHING
IMAGES OF A LIGHT THAT I GOT TO
REACH FOR · NOW I GOT TO DO
THE THINGS YOU SAID
BEFORE I CAN START
MAKING UP BREAKING DOWN
IT’S NOT A TRAIT TO BE HAD NO MORE
I ALWAYS CAUGHT YOU ON THE SOFT SIDE
DO WHAT I SAY · NOW
NOW I QUIT MY BELIEFS
AND I’M REIGNING OUTSIDE MY DOME
ALWAYS · FOR NOW
I’VE GOT A HEAD START
LONG AFTER
THIS HOUR
NO THINGS · DO
YOU’D ASK THEM
WILD FLOWER
SOMEONE SCARED?
I DID NOT SAY WHEN I’D WAKE UP

DISCONNECTING FROM THE GRID
I SEE BEYOND THIS MORTAL TOY
NEUROMANTIC NOT SURPRISED
TO BE A PART OF SCI-DEFIED REALITY
I SEE NO TV READ NO NEWS
WHEN I WAS YOUNG A BLEW A FUSE
MY DAYS ARE STRICTLY FILLED
WITH FIRST HAND XP
I KNOW I’M WISE BEYOND MY FEARS
AND THAT’S REALLY REALLY COOL
UNTIL I FIND MYSELF
LOGGED ON AGAIN
ANDREW LLOYD WORLD WIDE WEBBER
SING! SING ME OFF THIS THING
I’M PINGING ALL OF THE TIME

MY HALF-DEAD BODY IS KEPT AWAKE
I’M HOOKED A LUNG
THESE BREATHS ARE NOT MY OWN
THOUGH THEY TRACE TO MY IP
MASS CONSCIOUSNESS FEEDS ON US ALL
AND I KNOW THIS CALLS
FOR PRESENCE
BUT RIGHT NOW I CAN’T
I’M JUST A MAN
I’M PINGING ALL OF THE TIME
IT’S REALLY MAKING ME CHIME
MAKING ME CHIME
IT’S JUST YOU
NO IT’S NOT
IT DOES NOT BELONG TO ME
SOMETHING IS BREATHING THROUGH ME
AND I DON’T GET IT
THAT’S CRUDE
REALLY THAT’S CRUDE
PULL THE PLUG
NO I JUST CAN’T
I CAN-CAN-CAN CONTROL THIS NOW
SOMETHING IS RESPIRATING me
- AN ALVEOLUS THAT CAN BE
SO MUCH MORE
I DISCONNECT RIGHT NOW

YOU KNOW
OH I’VE COME A LONG WAY
JUST TO GIVE TO YOU MY MONEY

i don’t need you
i just like to feed you
if someone took you
i’d be relieved
you need to need me
and you sort of feed me
with constant adoration
and i need to break free
i don’t wanna be loved
for the things i do or the words i say
and i do not enjoy this pattern
and i do want to change your ways
but you will always be you
you know i see right through
the way you make yourself small
just to make me look good
although i really don’t need it
just be yourself · it’s understood
come on and hear it from my point of sound
this cycle will just keep spinning ‘round and ‘round
you threw it up · now it comes down:
to me not letting you tie bonds
it’s ok for a little while
you tell me i am like a child
yet with the wisdom of a sage
i want to end it at that stage
‘cause i need not to need a person
to constantly give me their version
of how unique and great i am
i’m saying stop because i can
express my right to just be
and relate in a state of presence
i’d love to love someone who feels free
enough to just love my pure essence
and after all i can do
is write this song and sing it through
what am i really feeding on ?
who loves who and who goes on ?
when i reject you feel offended
by how abruptly it all ended
you want to know the reasons why
i tell you
we both have wings and need to fly
and as surely as we all outlive our bodies
i will receive your utmost sorries
the qualities you love me for
are now just grinding your core
‘cause i need not to need a person ···
i’d love to love someone who feels free
enough to just love their own essence

Shards of broken mockery START waving like hair
Ever is it so ever that it never ever ends
TO NEVER STOP
TO FIND YOUR CALM IN THE FLOW
FIND YOUR CALM IN THE FLOW
geists sow needles in my feeble soil
and seek seek see kings without their clothes
swagging around the globetoddlers lost ON the pane
growing seemingly seamlessly conscious of
introvertebrates gone big and hit the silver sheen
having enough for now ?
you see them sticking out
call in the next school
call in the next new thoughtforms
a choice so simple to make
break constellation
call in the next school
don’t mind a little backbone
such are never mistakes
they’re yours to define
Shards of broken mockery START waving like hair
towards the trembling prostitutors
ever is it so ever that it never EVER ends
left for ebullition
NOW SOME PROFOUND
SHADOWS GOT EXPOSED
AS LUCIFERMENTED STINGS
call in the next school
CALLING IN the next school of thoughtforms
such an ultimate phase
phase cancellation
call in the next school
don’t mind a little backbone
TO NEVER STOP
TO FIND YOUR CALM IN THE FLOW
FIND YOUR CALM IN THE FLOW
TO NEVER STOP
TO BE SO CALM

Some have found their way
they’ve found a place to stay
some have found a meaning
they don’t have to seek beyond the premises
some might speak thy name
for some it’s just the same
some might get into
the occult SECTERIC queue
deities now are gone
now where to find THE love
always hard to find truth
when truth relies on subjective eyes
ANGEL · YOU’RE A WORN OUT DATED NAME
FOCUS MIND AND BREATH AND TRY
PLACEBO · ACHIEVE EXACTLY THE SAME
LEAVE SULLEN CONCEPTS WAY BEHIND
a whole school’s prone to be
stuck in history
young ones they act old
no one wants to be the one asking why
don’t you get sick of being patient
won’t you get away?
as in when as in why
as in no one needs to define
ANGEL · YOU’RE A WORN OUTDATED NAME
FOCUS MIND AND BREATH AND TRY
PLACEBO · ACHIEVE EXACTLY THE SAME
LEAVE SULLEN CONCEPTS WAY BEHIND
celestial beings · shrugging when we pray
they can’t do it for us · anyway
ANGEL · YOU’RE A WORNOUTDATED NAME
FOCUS MIND AND BREATH AND TRY
PLACEBO · BEHAVE EXACTLY LIKE AN
ANGEL · SPREAD YOUR WINGS AND PRY
FOCUS MIND AND BREATH AND TRY
AND SEE WHAT IT HAS COME INTO
DO WE NEED ALL THESE FIGHTS
TO DIVIDE BODY FROM DIVINE
FLIGHTLESS CHERUB YOU KNOW WHY
IT’S ALL GONE
IT’S BEEN DONE
ALL THINGS HAVE BEEN

FEEL FEEL FEEL
THIS WILL GET YOU WHERE YOU WANT TO
BE WHAT WHAT YOU HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO BE TRUE
drag drag stuck in a lag lag
acting like dumb dumb
then it’s no fun fun
talk to me
CLEANSE CLEANSE DROPPING MY DEFENSE
NOTHING MAKES SENSE
I WANT WANTED TO GET REAL
BUT I’M STILL STUCK TO THE WHEEL
I’VE TRIED REIKI WITH HOUSEWIVES
THOSE WERE GOOD TIMES
ALWAYS TRYING OUT ALL THE WAYS
22 CONFIRM WHAT I FEEL
THERE ARE SO MANY PARTS OF ME
UMBILICALAMITY
IT’S NOT THESE EYES THAT WILL SEE
THE LIGHTNING TURVY-TOPSIED
MAKING THE CHOICES · DESIGN
ASCENDING IPOMOEA VINES
THAT HAVE BEEN PLACED IN PSEUDO-TIME
I HAVE GENES BUT NOT MY KIND
LEY LINES THEY SWAY
I BELIEVE I’M NEVER GONNA BELIEVE IN ANYTHING THAT
DEMANDS THE CONSTRUCTION OF A TRUTH
DO SAY
ALL THE WHIMS I NEVER ACT OUT
COULD HAVE BEEN A MAN OF CERTAIN WORDS
FALLING UP · UPSIDE DOWN
STRUGGLING TO LIGHTEN UP
THOUGH I KNOW WHAT GOES DOWN
‘cause MY DESIRE TO AWAKEN
BECOMES a HINDRANCE IN THE END
IT KEEPS ME IN A SOFT SLUMBER
WHERE IT is EASY TO PRETEND
THAT I’M ABOVE ALL EARTHLY DRAMAS
ALL THE CURSES · ALL THE KARMAS
I NOW DESIRE TO LET GO
OF EVERYTHING I have COME TO KNOW
BUT TO DESIRE NOT TO DESIRE
IS AN UNDESIRABLE STATE
I’M CHASING BLISS · A BLISSFUL FUTURE
YET NO BLISSFUL PRESENT I CREATE
I KNOW THAT WHEN I TRULY LET GO
OF enlightened FEATS · THE SPUR · THE SHOW
MY NEED TO SEPARATE HIGHS AND LOWS
IS WHEN I AM ABOVE AS BELOW
IT HAS TO BE WITH ALL MY BEING
SO SINCERE MUST BE MY KEYING
THE DAY WHEN I CAN FULLY RISE UP
IS WHEN MY HEART CAN CHIME:
I DON’T GIVE A
