You Am I 04:46
Your whole life leads to this moment Hindsight watching every move go down Something said but never spoken Expectation of the profound When you step into the present You dissolve into what always was Only one without a second Set yourself on pause You am I I am you You am I I am you Welcome to the timeless dimension of now Are you yourself and I myself? Who is myself if not yourself? Am I myself if yourself is myself is yourself is myself? As within, so without As above, so below You am I You am I You Am I you? Am I? Am I? You am I I am you You am I I am you Om Mani Padme Hum Om Mani Padme Hum Om Mani Padme Hum Om Mani Padme Hum Om Mani Padme Hum Om Mani Padme Hum Om Mani Padme Hum Om Mani Padme Hum

My eyes bleed into the night Imbibing ultraviolet light My dreams slowly fill the void My head's a smoking crater asteroid Are you connected or confused? Discontented or amused? Sleep But don't close your eyes Through the screen Artificial lives Mesmerize Visualize Digitize Hypnotize Darkened mouth of Earth Inhale me into a new birth Are you connected or confused? Discontented or amused? Sleep But don't close your eyes Through the screen Artificial lies Synthesize Crystalize Digitize Hypnotize "Who is it?" "It's the future again."

Infinity 01:07
It feels like infinity Only when you're close to me Falling so easily But somethings aren't meant to be It feels

Every minute, every second that you wait Checking the time but it's all too late Hesitation is a broken inclination Nostalgia lies, reminiscing only highs Blue-eyed disguise hiding stormy skies Rising tide comes a time for a little piece of mind And sometimes I know that I try to be the best I can And I know I won't be enough cuz I'm only a man Dream on and dream on bout what could have been Move on and move on while I wait within Any day, any hour could be the last Stuck in your head someone else's past Memories that the future once guaranteed Recollect sentiment, conjure emotion No lock, no keys, just flowing motion Falling tide comes a place for a little open space And sometimes I know that I try to be the best I can And I know I won't be enough cuz I'm only a man Dream on and Dream on bout what could have been As this life just moves on and moves on while I wait within Here it comes again Here it comes again There it goes again There it goes again Here it comes again There it goes again

Dawn embraces bitter clay The birds sing of midnight's surrender Can you remember your name When you gaze at the flame? Blinding skies Burning eyes Beneath an amber setting star Inhaling the sun's sacrifice Phosphorescent mist flows The optical windows stained red with day glow Blinding skies Burning eyes Blinding skies Burning eyes

Hey You Where Ya going? Primordial gut growls for acidic thoughts As desert crawlers dare to walk Barren wasteland All in your hand Every atom is a lifespan When you hear the chime You'll go back in time Time Time It's all in your head You're not dead yet It's all in your head Running and running and Running and running and Running and running and Just keep running til one day you run out of luck Scorpions are stinging And lizards are biting But nothing seems more frightening Than what is just looking back at you In the mirror its all so clear A slave to the senses Always defensive Stuck in the trenches Struggling to quench his thirst Way too well rehearsed But the demons reenforce that there's an infinite number of realities Already within your very palm So what's the qualm?

Eat the mold Grow tenfold Break the chain Beast stain Synchronicity is scheduled chaos Destroy senses that separate us Why do some moments last forever And some exist only in a memory Shed the skin Turn within Saturn circles ripple purple Saturn circles ripple purple Synchronicity is scheduled chaos Destroy senses that separate us How do some moments last forever And some exist only in a memory Back to worms All returns Purple mud Rise up

Further 07:39
I'm going further and further into myself I'm sinking farther and farther into the storm Home Wait With reckless abandon I fall down the rabbit hole Sun light is fading My internal clock disappears Sudden awaken from dreams of lofty marigold Into the real world where everyone is their own fears Gone Gone Home Desire, distraction dissipate into formless clouds Free my mind's thinking from everyone's thinking Whatever you're thinking is taking you too far away What to do, how to be, somethings you already know My brain became chewing gum and my spirit was free Free Free (Terence McKenna) "The more boundaries that have dissolved, the closer to concrescence we are, and when you finally reach it, there are no boundaries, You are eternity. You are all space and time. You are alive and dead, here and there, before and after. The singularity is a coincidentia oppositorum. It can simultaneously coexist in states which are contradictory. It is Tomas Aquinas's vision of God. It's something which transcends rational apprehension, but it gives the universe meaning."

On and On 05:20
In a place where nothing is true Would anything matter to you? Another mirror shatters, what's new? And when the clouds mushroom, what can I do? Here in the presence of the absent Between real and relative fragments And it goes, and it goes On and On On and On On and On On and On On and On On and On Born in the multiverse Where people live their lives in reverse So does it even matter to you? A million variations, enjoy the view Here in the presence of the absent Between real and relative fragments There it goes, there it goes Down the stream of consciousness River flowing without consequence Who knows, who knows Why time moves on without tension Gliding through all dimensions Here we go, here we go Climb to the top of the living mountain And you'll find that there's too many to be counted So it goes, so it goes On and On On and On
