A Slumbering Mire

all hands on deck here at the clinic. strangle those who come with red tape. choke on pills from the apothecary and leave with the regret of a sizeable debt. or just lie in bed and suffer instead. hedged your bets on trickle down. land of the free. land that was never yours. placed faith in shit and watched it trickle down. land of the free. free to die. a line in the sand just inching further. one step away from total collapse. ride here on roads paved of gold or be proud to die standing on your own feet

Fifteen Pound Angles

Start at the top, be at the top. born into wealth and spoonfed every chance to lord over an empire. you did this all yourself. got the world on a hook. you've never even touched the line. you reap the spoils and watch the rest of us die. every pauper a prince.

trapped inside a shrinking spiral. the sand's run out the hourglass. trapped inside a shrinking spiral. watch the world burn before our eyes. watch the future go up in smoke. the sand's run out the hourglass. you were warned. you knew. sold us to the highest bidder. nothing new. just this once i wish that god you worship were real. so she could throw you in the deepest pit in hell to rot. burning for eternity would still never be enough. you sold your soul and you knew. now we're coming to collect. you're through.

The Nameless Flood
01:55
|

when the ice melts and the seas boil. the water is poisoned but the woods won't stop burning. the flood is well on the way. there is a storm coming and we've run out of names. the time for action has passed with a collective sigh of relief. we brace ourselves for collapse. a collective in disbelief. traded the future for this moment. an investment in retreat. if you're not scared. you should be.

Our god Commerce

stolen lands. stolen freedoms. all along this path of bones and spirits that will never rest. claim these tokens of impermanence and have the audacity to subsist. we wait to be blessed by opportunity but even this art feeds the great machine. we wait to be blessed by opportunity but it's never mattered what you call your shackles. watch everything we love become a product and suffocate within it's grasp.
