"Pixillate"

"Pixillate"


You are the rainbow
You are the sun to my chameleon

We are the river
We are the stone
And you're never alone, while you're feeding the crux of the you
You brave accadian

Oh, thank you... thank you

Paralyzed, terrorized
In my eyes I've always fallen
End this line, endless lie
Endlessly but still I'm falling

Break me away from my 'I'

Hold on tight

Hold on to you

Paralyzed, terrorized
In my eyes I've always fallen
End this line, endless lie
Endlessly, so pixillate me
Paralyzed, terrorized
In my eyes I've always fallen
Endless lies, endless lie
Endless lines but still I've fallen

Break me away from my 'I'
Hold on tight
It's this hope... that gives us

"Planet Of The Apes"

"Planet Of The Apes"


I know who I am today
But who knows?
To forgive the lord... you don't damn family
All I ever wanted was to be true for my wife and my kid
And I will never back down, and I release the pain

I say have it your way
I stay heavy for my god
I say have it your way

And pay!

Oh the mind goes!

And I've had to reassess the ways of the mind
And I will never back down, for you are my children's family
And I know what's inside that power
Have I forgiven the pain?

Forgive yourself!

I say have it your way
I stay heavy for my god
I say have it your way

Pay! No?

Sorrow man
Sorrow man
Sorrow man

I know the ways to love and truth
(Tungsten body, glowing mind)
And I realize they're coming through
(Tungsten body, glowing mind)
I know the way to love and truth my god... stay with me!

Sorrow man
Sorrow man
Sorrow man

(While we all have lots of bands who influence still... we all rip off Meshuggah!)

Well was I aware that I was more uplifted by the enkindled smiling of the stars
So I cannot find myself worthy

Covered with scent vile they seem to be side by side, animals in a row

I never (get your money's worth)
Pay pay
I never know (get your money's worth)
Pay now
I do not agree existentially

I know father, I know father... I know... I know
I know father, I know father... I know... I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, all about the blood!

Yeah! I let go, I let go my prehistoric mensa!

I say have it your way
I stay heavy for my god
I say have it your way
I stay heavy for my god
I say have it your way
I stay heavy for my god
I say have it your way
I stay heavy for my god

Worlds away, sun it glows
Hearts fade to grey, summer shows
Worlds away, sun it glows
Hearts fade to grey, summer shows

Way of ways, and in a way I'm heading towards the sky!
We never will die, we never know why
Just never look back now, and I'll be happy until!
Oh! Everybody will know, I am so happy now!
I've got a little boner!

Stay in line, in line we stay!
Stray from the norm and never be heard!
Always above, always alone!
Reaffirm:
This is the planet of the apes!

(Jesus, Jihad. Jesus, Jihad. Jesus, Jihad. Jesus, Jihad. Jesus)

Show ourselves the beauty of our ways
Then maybe we would last

Hey!
Are we observing? Are we the observed?
Are we deserving... Or are we deserved?
If what we owe is all we know!
Then ever in the presence of events that change us all... And then are gone
If they know, what we may never know... Then let this be the lesson of our ways!

(Jesus, Jihad. Jesus, Jihad. Jesus, Jihad. Jesus, Jihad. Jesus)

Please don't cry to me, 'cause what you believe is the cause of your own demise
You need to be free in money and the worlds between us! Your words, THEY SAY THIS!
Under the pleasant lines!

I'm sorry baby, I'm sworn to miles and miles of love
I'm sorry baby, I'm sworn to miles and miles of love
I'm sorry baby
Baby
Miles and miles of love!

One is all connected, tungsten body glowing mind!
One collective!
Wild desire!

All the world's been waiting for the news!

Save me your heart!

We must trust in ourselves my friends!

One is all connected! Tungsten body glowing mind!

(One is all, collective)
(One is all, collective)
(One is all, collective)
(One is all, collective)
(One is all, collective)

"Planet Rain"


What have we learned?
From this wee exercise
What have we earned?
Now that it's over

What can we say?
What are we doing here?
Everything's changed
Everything's stayed the same
But it's quiet now, quiet now
'Cause it's the end of the world
Quiet now, quiet now
'Cause it's the end of the world
Quiet now, quiet now
The end of the world
Quiet now, quiet now
End of the world

What if we've changed?
What if we're finished here?
Can we be saved?
Does anybody even care?

So many dreams
So many make the grade
So many fail
So many fade away

But it's quiet now, quiet now
'Cause it's the end of the world
Quiet now, quiet now
'Cause it's the end of the world
Quiet now, quiet now
The end of the world
Quiet now, quiet now
End of the world

Show you've a soul by crying

What have we learned?
From this wee exercise
What have we lost here?
Love, feeling

What have we learned?
From this wee exercise
What have we lost here?
Love, feeling
Love, feeling
Love, feeling
Love, feeling
Love, feeling
Love...

Sorry
I'm sorry already
I'm so sorry
I know now
So, slow down
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
Come on

...sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm so way you down now
My baby
I'll belong
I'll be wander...

[Ziltoid:]
Yes, I feel like a good bit of entertainment...time to destroy the planets
Which one shall it be? This one? No...too feeble. This one...yes, perhaps
Yes. This one shall do nicely. Commander...

[Commander:] Yes, Captain Ziltoid?
[Ziltoid:] Divert all the power from the main engines to the front guns

[Planet Smasher:] Who dares awaken the planet smasher!
[Ziltoid:] It is I, the 4th dimensional Ziltoid the omniscient!

Cherish the mind

Cherish your mental sanctum
Cower to war

Curse to be by the sun

You are the only one
Channels the mind
Channels the mind
Channels the mind
Of the earth
Cherish the pain
Cherish the pain
Cherish the pain
Cherish the mental weapon
Cower to war
Cower to war
Cowards remain on the earth
Tell me what you want from me
ALL I WANNA BE IS THE OMNIVERSE!
They're allowed to be
Around all of us
All I want to see
Through the omniverse
Let its thoughts go until tomorrow
Smasher
Bow to the valley below
Please do not raise the planet smasher, mighty Ziltoid!
We mean you no harm!
Smash it!
Bow to the valley below

"Poltergeist"


Let's finish this!

Now, we fall apart at the seams, then see that nothing's changed!
This life lies!
Oh my god knows!
That everybody wants to be the next one to bow!
You'd let your mother fall on down!
Do my eyes deceive me? Do my ears believe me?

One god greater than all religion!

Give it to!

I have no time!

So I say:
Die! poltergeist!
Die!
Poltergeist!
Die!
Poltergeist!
Give unto me! (wait!)
Give unto me! (wait!)
Give unto me! (wait!)
Give unto me! (wait!)
Die!
Poltergeist!
I have never known your war!
Give unto me! (wait!)
Give unto me! (wait!)
Give unto me! (wait!)
Give unto me! (wait!)

Now we come to the end!

Die!
Poltergeist!
Die!
Poltergeist!
Give unto me! (wait!)
Give unto me! (wait!)
Give unto me! (wait!)
Give unto me! (wait!)

I am right here, and I am not frightened... are we clear? are we?
You never come round, you will not be welcome, you will not!
You have been vanquished, let go!
I've conquered my soul!
Vanquished... now go!
Exorcise yourself!

And stand for what you truly believe in!

Now!
We all know the peace of mind that comes from the fight!
(Fight!)
Now!
We stand tall forever and seek the one true light!

Say it to the world!

So we've arrived, no one depends on me
So, with forces far from gone?
No way! no way! no way! no way!

There's glory to the brave!

Glory to the brave!

Stand!

"Praise The Lowered"


Close your eyes, get ready
One won't stop the flow
Console your child get him ready
One more don't let go
Tonight

It's you

Calm your eyes get 'em ready
One won't stop the flow
(Soul coming around in morning sun)
C'mon c'mon soul of mine you're ready
One more don't let go
(Soul coming around the mourn tonight)
Tonight, it's soda water
Soda water, soda water boys

Soda water so

Ah, soul of mine
Ah, sober
Ah sold the mind
Ah I'm so sober
I know the way
Ah stoned
Ah, so it ends
Ah oh stone sober

Ah, gimme that wine!
Gimme that acid!
And I wanna lose everything that's policing us, and then everything must begin!
And I wanna do heroin!
And I wanna do crack cocaine!
And I wanna lose everything but release why don't you just

Smoke that fucking weed boy, drink the wine

Weed boy, drink the wine
Weed boy, drink the wine
Bring the pain!
(All of it's all we are that's all we are)
Bring the pain!
Weed boy, drink the wine
Weed boy, drink the wine
Bring the pain!
Weed boy, drink the wine
Weed boy, drink the wine

Face yourself!
Send me to hell!

"Promise"

"Promise"


3:15 AM
Awake

Sweat lights fly by outside
Damn it, it's hot in here
It's so hot
Too hot to sleep

All I need

Black on black
The red burns
3:15 AM
Rises, beside, behind
It's easier to sleep
It happened

There's nothing I can do about it

All I need I am finished now
I am full
I am ugly
I am your promise

"Quiet Riot"

"Quiet Riot"


I wait for the pain
It always comes again
And I don't know why
And I don't care why anymore
Saved in the end
By a long lost friend
And I don't know why
And I don't care why anymore

And the rain it keeps on coming
And the pain it keeps at bay for another day
Home

So thank you Jean Michel
I'm on my way to hell
And I don't know why
But I don't care why anymore

Honey, I know that you can hear me
Your love has come and gone
And even at times when you're near me
Your loving's come and gone
And I know but can you hear me?
Your love is what keeps us strong
And even at times when you're near me
Where have the good time gone?

They're gone

Brother, all good but can you hear me?
Your blood is what keeps us strong
I need a second hearing
Outta the good I'm gone
Outta the way I'm gone
Outta the way I'm gone
Outta the way I'm gone
Outta the way I'm gone

Brother, I know that you can hear me
And blood is what keeps us strong
And I need a second hearing
And outta the way I'm gone
Outta the way I'm gone
Outta the way I'm gone
Outta the way I'm gone
Outta the way I'm gone
Outta the way I'm gone (Don't fear me)
Outta the way I'm gone (You'll hear me)
Outta the way I'm gone (Don't fear me)
Outta the way I'm gone (You'll hear me)

Something's got a hold on you, child
Something's got a hold on you, child

Runnin' the wheel!

Outta the way I'm gone
Outta the way I'm gone
Outta the way I'm gone (I'll fear me)
Outta the way I'm gone (Don't fear me)
Outta the way I'm gone (I'll fear me)
