about

Standy to transmit

Well I was heading out
coming at you directly from the mother Sun
it was like lazers 8 o'clock day 1
excerpt from the symphony of the unsung tongue
[blurred transmission] signs to be undone
The old gods know not as they prepare their grey ships for battle
we are little more than cattle to their worn milky eyes
borrowed from oracles who would rather be blind than die
who would rather be kind and lie
knowing that in the end their words will inevitably lead you
around the bend through the veil beneath the world
and into the realm of the minds eye
you are relinquished to an intergalactic elevator ride
via the arch highways of space and time
parallelo tram to the giant slide
just past the laughing crows and the three sisters silently mourning
third star to the left straight on till morning
straight soaring sky high, all I wanna do is fly
Captain Cat cruises by on a melted moon pie
we've reprogrammed the cabin to be optimally pressurized
to allow your thoughts to move freely about the cabin
thru the whole nine shabangs and the mind of a certain Aaron Neville
sworn into change the map with akashic groove
embezzled from the conglomerate souls of the old lux school
we are the propiretors of the symphony of life from which this universe has come and now my unsung song is sung
