Blood Mars
-------------
You've got the rage baby you can rush them
The night is needling now sharpen your knives
Don't act your age honey you can crush them
Dust in the universe for the rest of their lives
Never again a constellation
Will hide your scars
Menacing men your desperation
The demon lays
The blood mars
The heads turn as you ride the comet
A black hole beneath your asteroid belt
The white dwarf darling makes you vomit
Celestial bodies in a galaxy of guilt
Never again the gravitation
Will shine your stars
Sickening men your devastation
The semen slays
And the blood...
Took on the chin the culmination
You kept in jars
Holy has-been of a generation
The memory stays
The blood mars
The blood mars
The blood mars
The blood mars

Near Life Experience (Hospital Scene Part I)
--------------------------------------------------
Ever lonesome ever hurried overwrought and overworried
Sewn together with emotion drank the wine and shot the potion
I'll be water I'll be land but let my body be unmanned
I hover high above the doctor humming like a helicopter
Take me home now
Break the last bough
I don't know how to live
Tunnel open tunnel pull me through the needle's eye console me
Demons growling to defeat me they come to make me incomplete completely
I'll be soul or I'll be wind let my consciousness ascend
I think as I view my lifeless body did I finish the laundry
Take me home now
Break the last bough
I don't know how to live
Grant ascension
To your dimension
Or send me back to forgive
Over
Not over
Over
Absolute or relative
Take me home now
Break the last bough
I don't know how to live
Grant ascension
To your dimension
Or send me back to forgive
Over
Not over
Over
I don't know how to live

Loud As Lightning (Hospital Scene Part II)
------------------------------------------------
All I know is afterglow and frozen fire
Moments fade and reasons sing and darkness stands
Memory of her and me in a hanging tire
Swinging as the surgeon moves his hands
You're right here loud as lightning in my brain
And I fear nothing frightening
I can't explain there's no pain
All the clocks are paradox the days are errors
Teetered on the edge and I got stuck in the mud
Guess I had to steal away from all these terrors
Guess I had to spill a little blood
You're right here loud as lightning in my brain
And I fear nothing frightening
I can't explain there's no pain
Heavenly view of everything I rue
Tore me in two how could I trust you...
Tried in vain to draw near
To make all of me disappear
You ever with me I was still withdrawn
I was left of the right shy in the fight
Tell my b-b-b-baby move on
Keep me gone and stay this love-laden future
I'll pine and I'll pray I'll be floating away
And the stars will be so near
It don't hurt here I can hear you
Loud as lightning

Waking Up (Hospital Scene Part III)
----------------------------------------
I hear her voice and I feel the sun
A drug or bug in my ear
There was a war but I don't think I won
And damn you why am I still here
Oh hold me now
Take me to a place beyond blood and reason
But don't tell me the lie is true
Don't tell me the lie is true
My friends rejoice that I put up a fight
But they don't know which side I was on
I know the score and I saw the light
Believe me I should be gone
Oh hold my soul
Take me to a place beyond blood and reason
If I extol
Would the coup de gras be guilty of treason
Don't tell me the lie is true
There is nothing here for me
But desperation and debris
The only place I want to be is high
Oh hold me now
Take me to a place of grace and devotion
And show me how
I can be as green and deep as the ocean
But don't tell me the lie is true
Don't tell me the lie is true
Don't tell me the lie is true
Don't tell me the lie
