Land of Decree

The earths just one big trash can
Gets pushed up into a mountain
The oil spills, the whacked out pills
Look how we're surrounded

Land of decree, home of decay
Stopping tomorrow to deal with today
Mixed up messages mixed up minds 
All of these questions, all of the time

Going to bury my head in the sand
Going to run as fast as i can
Not going to follow the plan
The plan it is a scam
Not going to work
Just want your brain to hurt
Just want your heart to squirt

It's a drop dead reality
Stuck in this cavity
Surrounded by catastrophe
Acting diplomatically
Making the brutality the reality
Glorifying fatality

Pull our minds out of the gutter
There is still more to discover
We will stand tougher
Smother the sucker 
Let us restructure

The strategy practically destroyed the galaxy
Demoting our nationality, we won't live unhappily  
Improve our mentality, principality, constitutionality, heterosexuality, and confidentiality

Actively attracted me to your mind
Maddened me 
Saddened me
Made me blind

Flowers On the Moon

Flowers on the moon
I got you
Feet are in the water
The sun is down
Nothings on my mind
All is well
Feeling peaceful 
With no one around

I thought that you saw me
But you turned away

There's no reason
A reason to cry
An old man told me
Never to worry
Time is always
Going to be hard
There's no distance
A distance to far

Then you saw me
You turned around

Flowers on the moon
I got you
Smiles never ending 
Its nothing new
I could tell you
Any thing
These days
May never end

Never ending
Never ending

Junk

It is in the small things we see it.
The prophesies of the diluted delusional irrational rations
That pull together the fortifying justice 
Upon mankind and intellectual vandals
Of this disgusting bland tropical environment 
That tears me from my stupidity of injustice and non riotousness,
These small things eventually grow 
Like an iridescent and gleaming tumor of the boring music in my mind

I am at the peak now and the flamingo of a flock has clued in
The the selfless stupidity that has endangered my world,
Is it that this correlation of fluctuation has indeed 
Set present the motivation and bouldering descent
Of our final and conclusive death

The afterlife is another analogy
The prophesying ancients of the colonizing and efficient soldiers
The past and present of our slowly crumbling universe
Some people may question the irrelevance to this statement of devastating truth, 
My statements of disbelief and romantics 
Overwhelm the readers that do not totally compensate or pay tribute to this amazing and exciting junk

Harpoon

Winter warmer
Sky forgotten
Eye glass frost
Rotten timber

Room for rent
Random guest
Renaissance
Heart from chest

Molten eyelids
Roman candles
Romantic end
Milk from breast

Sonic Paradigm

Didn't go to college
Lost most my knowledge
Eating them dirty mushrooms
Almost dropped out
Wasn't my fault
I just didn't fit in
Now I'm in the real world
With a real girl
Didn't know where to begin
My minds always racing
Times always wasted
In this life of sin

So rotate them tires
Tune up your gears
Pay all your taxes
Clean out your ears
Go to the doctors
Also the dentist
Could be a lawyer
A masters apprentice

Never got the memo 
Still in limbo
Making this my own

Sonic paradigm here to let you know
Anything is possible
The things you'd never know
If you put your mind to it
Got to give your time to it
You can watch it grow
Whats the sense of dreaming 
If your not really meaning
Ready to let it go

Down River Running

Radically impacted from forming shadows
Moon on my back as i walk through the hallows
Picked apart, shifting dark, using rare powers
Don't let the internet waste all hours
Making that, Taking back, soil for flowers

Changing concerns with the money earned
Getting so worried when the world still turns
Underpaid, overworked, overworked, underpaid
Needing new ways for our children to learn
Investments and funds their on the run
Washed downriver to the beat of our drum

Factories churning, with speed and power
Building on building, this fantasy is shallow
Take it down, root around, show some devotion
In the horizon a fiery ocean
Swells and it heaves
Lives and it breathes
Ill swim in it still 
until it leaves.

Under My Hand

Your left with no decisions
In his face we're all villains
Trapped in the systems vision 
What really is the mission

Don't loose hope on finding answers
I love you but people cant stand us
If we're lucky maybe they'll brand us
chances are we'll all get cancer

Were pushed in all directions
Throw you hands up, lets just guess man
Tonight is your election, your the correction 
We're staring at your reflection

Tonight lets set fire, to the bullies and the buyers
Our arms reaching higher, than the Bilderberg empire
Making profits from our presence,  from our sentence
Why not call us peasants, put us in your message

Your under my hand 
No control now

Woo Zen Wei

You can roll me
You can smoke me
You can put me out

You can roach me 
You can toke me
You can cook me down

In the morning and the evening
Afternoon and night
Take me any where you go
Even on a hike

You can bake me 
You can hate me
You can love me with a passion
You can smell me 
You can sell me
You can put me in a jar

In the middle of the night 
Heading for the kitchen 
Ill be sitting there 
With my stem in the middle

I bring danger
I like strangers
I'm often out of reach
I'm green, from the ground
I'll never bring you down

With your friends by your side
Guitars and a fire
Ill be by your side making everything
A little brighter
