\\\\Hot Bowl Of Marbles:(////
I have an irrational fear of linear time
Unearthing a secret is the ultimate crime
I hope you leave me pining for clarity
Soak my perceptive screen
Electromagnetic filters leave me blinded by earthly greed
Thanks to a life of conditioning
I block off my alien needs
Build a wall
Draw the line
That divides
The light
Spacetime is a single dimension
But not a path to mental elation
Embrace your Dionysian tendencies
Honor your isolation
I have an irrational fear of linear time
Unearthing a secret is the ultimate crime
Egos allude to separation
The object and observer constantly exist in cannon
Don't mistake an excuse for an explanation
My dream state is my counterweight
My truths are trustworthy
Build a wall
Draw the line
That divides
The light
Spacetime is a single dimension
But not a path to mental elation
Embrace your Dionysian tendencies
Honor your isolation

\\\\\Orchid Mantis/////
Hiding in the guise of something beautiful
To lure the weak minds into their mandible, such camouflage
Such selfish thoughts they tried to set us down this path
We're all just costs and benefits
They better get their dividends
Such shallow thoughts in minds like this
Where money comes before all risks and just to be a part of it
We let them kill the heart of it
I'm afraid that we're losing the point of it all
Falling in love with the feeling so small and what's the excuse
We're all so much bigger than you
The excuses they never end
No time to look through a thicker lens
Sit pretty and take this disinformation
Sit calm in silent complacence

\\\\trytobecool (ZORP IV)////
I'm the problem, I'm always gray
The sense of sour pains keeps the cancer at bay
Bleached clean, still can't save me
I've been coordinated
Operationally embedded
In something I've never laid my eyes on
Can't phase me with a shallow compliment
I don't like to be the subject
Bleached clean, still can't save me
I've been coordinated
Operationally embedded
In something I've never laid my eyes on
(You cannot save me from things that don't phase me)
The vibe from the next room has been leaking in
If I lose all blood accidentally is it still a sin
Your energy is the best way to kill me

\\\\Accepting Your Affinity////
Learning the limit of your own infinity can be troubling
When you have a lot to answer for
It's easy to slip into another personality
I don't expect you to set my feelings on the back burner
But I wouldn't put it past you either
I guess that's just my way of playing favorites
Watch me when I sleep
Keep adding weights to the chains that drown my under-proofed beliefs
Keep me weak, keep me weak
If you're looking for me
I'll be in the back meditating
Forgetting the physics of your inner gravity can be distracting
If you're always feeling bored
It's easy to drift into an alternate reality
I can't respect you if you don't make a change for the better
But I'll never learn to let it linger
I guess that's just my way of playing favorites
Watch me when I sleep
Keep adding weights to the chains that drown my under-proofed beliefs
Keep me weak, keep me weak
If you're looking for me
I'll be in the back meditating

Bittersweet company
Yeah I'm lonely but I'm not dying for attention yet
I'm looking for a word
Will you lend me a helping hand
Cause I'm trying to find a new way
To say the same thing
I've been keeping busy scraping brains off the highway in my psyche
Will you lend me a helping hand
Will you lend me a helping hand
Cause I'm trying to find a new way
To say the same thing
Not dying for attention just yet
I've been keeping busy scraping brains off the highway in my psyche
Will you lend me a helping hand
Will you lend me a helping hand
Cause I'm trying to find a new way
To say the same thing
Not dying for attention just yet
We've been hexed
Live in fear if you wish, but that's not a choice that I can forgive
I've been keeping busy
Scraping brains off the highway in my psyche

\\\\Tiny Bone////
Life is easy when you grow your own gold
Let me reiterate that love can't be sold
Life is easy when you grow your own gold
Your voids been engulfing mine
The job was done from the inside
Don't take your senses for granted
The cosmos didn't plan on it
