like stilted lovers on a collision path FORGED BY THE CHAINS THAT BIND THEM “yes! your color your eyes and the sweat from your brow …is captivating your color your eyes and the sweat from your brow And how can we survive these one-sided monopolies of trust my skin, my thoughts this betrayal of lust a lovers quarrel a lovers conquest a resistance to change a call to war a change of guard in this underground escape We know the Truth we find it in Desperate ways a means to an overdue end a means to a new life a new friend

3.	Hijacked Frequencies 07:08	lyrics	buy track
The elephant’s in the corner with those hijacked frequencies while no one casts a glance, no one but it blares from the radio it comes in cathode rays in those smeared printed letters you’ll find no subtleties just a strange chorea, of punchlines in wait radio hidden faces with an arm-tied discourse for you, the disengaged it’s intrinsic to the touch the chord they’ve struck a chord, a chord we’ll have to cut for every exclamation has missed its mark and every call sign has faltered in the dark the elephant’s in the corner and can’t be ignored

large tables with these restless thoughts numbers that cough and wheeze numbers that don’t make sense ‘cause they’re left with the dead on their minds growing weariness in these harsh tones dates are looming on these machines that ignite and burn accelerate reach farther than our minds could So, with every statement scrutinized they move every inch closer Penetrate with every set of eyes to move every inch closer

end the radio silence bring up the tower ignite the sounds beam the transmissions those subversions that belong to every-EVERYONE! constructed from the ashes, of archetypal ruins that can’t make this change we use the sounds we decipher/receive we transmit across all frequencies so cease the silence speak the revolution REACT. HERE. NOW. the beginning of a free art and a finale for misinformation.
11.	Lights Out 03:41	lyrics	buy track
Amid the infirmary we salvage the unseen, responses unprogrammed, to find the sounds. because the time is now to throw out all of those illusions for we are no longer swayed by the darling media’s sweaty, groping hands The time is now we’ll find the sounds We’ll find them now BANG. CLICK. LIGHTS OUT!
12.	La Tierra 11:29	lyrics	buy track
la tierra la tierra your gentle hands o’, those callused hands tied behind your back grasping at those frayed knots is it getting old? watching every freedom fighter? watching every trampled broken heart? has it hushed your spirits? la tierra with the exits blocked and the distress sounds I know it seems like the end la tierra choice. the fiction. - a word we can’t recall we. choose. not. - the soil, the water not. - the family we mend nor. - the eyes we look into not. the war. - waged upon us all sister…don’t give up mother…not on us child…we won’t give up la tierra…we won’t give up
