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

Hijacked Frequencies
07:08
|

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

Transmissions
07:02
|
|||
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.

Lights Out
03:41
|
|||
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!

La Tierra

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
