I am no one
Watch it implode
I have no one
To call my own
There are now secret ways
To pry in, deep in minds
And I know a good place
To spend time, to lay down
I'm not even myself
I am no one
I'm not myself
Watch the stars
Simple things
Away from here
It's quiet
Out of town there's no trap
No obelisks to ignore
Did you say you saw them?
Late at night in shadows?
Doing what but killing
Sleeping vice for us all
It's hard to say now
What it means to me

Everyone is an extension
Of the same basic thing
It stands to reason, friend
There can be no end
And no cheap escape
Despite what they say
When they're selling you death
Crystal palaces beyond veils of night
In lost horizons faded and cryptic
It is within you
The hearts of towers are open to you
Just follow the map
To open realms of light, also a blackness
Unknown whose beauty extends measureless
Outside the city
Far beyond the net
In silent thought
See her for yourself
Reflect to challenge deepest rooted fear

I can't wait to leave this place
And return to your grace
Counting stars, I'll give them names
I'll stumble through their doors
Beyond walls so pale and gray
The doctors demonstrate
Violence and psychic pain
Bending will into it's grave
I fall in ancient traps
And again what's good has lapsed
I leave you in silent halls
The devils can't find our home
I am stuck with memory
One last friend in reverie
Golden strands stretch to me
Forming songs eternally
The cast net still seizes minds
Obelisk, the black-green hive
Find the house concealed in grime
Disintegrate for one last time
I think of the Director
And of his destroying glance
Enemies that never sleep
Still dreaming in endless night
Light commands through pyramids
A pointless aging city
That's designed by a sick mind
Projecting infinity
The circle has been broken
And it has no more free life
A dead sense all pervasive
You can cut it with a knife
Here I am once again
Thinking of you old friend
I'm riding deadly currents
To the heart hiding our curse
What to do? I send this wave
To envelope to counteract
False hopes controlling youth
You know it to be true
So I'll sing this simple tune
To outlast all those bad things
Inertia, the false message
Doesn't matter any way
You are my silent star radiating by degrees
And though I'm trapped here right now
We'll meet again and you'll see me

When the wind changes in fall
It is my breath in the air
I'm sighing for you people
There is nothing left to do
When I look to your city
I can see their pulses
Enveloping hearts in flame
I see the terror rising
In putrid emblazoned waves
Staining azure horizons
Through the veil and the lies
And running fast from my fold
I welcome you to my world
I will receive you in love
Showing visions of the birth
Slow-moving, persistent
Revealing new paths above
In the heart industrial
Of the city late at night
The abode of the stellar hosts
Giving signs to follow light
& rise into the skies

Their holodesires
They are clearly insane
You see impossible
Tell me where is justice
Hearing the Director
And his strange glassy wave
Well-concealed he's weaving
The structures of the Plan
They have it in their minds now
Obelisk of deceit
Re-living memories
Projected into skulls
I don't mind business
Nature's way
Watching leaves changing hands
The fresh blood sacrificed
To relieve the burden the response
The gleaming secret star
Do they know what I know?
Can they see what I see?
How to speak secretly with knowledge?
Set them free?
Justice
Just is

I overlook the city
All their minds belonging
Soothing thoughts of the times
Simple words, simple rhymes
Only me, no one leaves
They appear, blinking lights
Structuring their thinking
According to the Plan
I am the same program
Hiding in their black hearts
In darkness I know them
Better than they realize
I am the hidden hand
Lingering deep in their minds
I revel in the night
Watch tracing all of their lines

They have no real secrets
Swept up in the deluge
The last ray of false dawn
I have been watching them
I pass through their hallways
I sit with them at dawn
Know they are deceivers
They're nothing real at all
From life they're fleeing
Their lake is boiling
Rank their names and numbers
All consumed by our eye
And filtered through bowels
Turn to ash their dreaming
Gone with a secret word
In smoke-stack air of void
Fools, drawn into the fire

Sodomize their senses
And rot them to their core
A simple formula
To blast open their doors
Living in a dream world
Sustained by the bullshit
Polish faulted sense of self
Force them to listen
I write it as I see it
I figure it all out
There is no other way
Power flows according to the Plan
Understand simple truths
I am free
They don't know what they want
So give it to them raw
Listen to the pulse
Go into the streets
Catalogue dreamers
Reflect them back in
Sustain the current
Set up underground

We have new desires here
Alive in silent dreams
Under the green light scene
Nearby the railroad track
Star/House/Light/Screen
Wire/Desk/Mind/Shelf
Where to? The starform laughs
Grass/Tree/Brick/Thought
Hidden right before your eyes
Void/Leaf
Trailing to the lakeside
Where she slumbering waits
Calling you to bear her
Across an endless night
We her agents stay
We play sentinel guard
Guiding you along waves
To places sacred and soft
Blood/Sky/Thought/House
There is no sense in life
Void/Star
Tracing infinite lines
Across an endless sky
Beyond the measured light
Tell me, now, the password
