Crooked Man's Peak

you will find all my problems floating down the river
you will find all my problems drifting out to sea
you will find all my answers and my inspiration
at the top, at the top of crooked mans peak
i have slain so many foes, and fought so many demons
i have explored so many caves, and conquered so many dungeons
i have been to the edge of the earth, and i have been to the depths of hell
but when i am almost destroyed, i will always remember
WHAT THE WISE MAN SAID
IS that THE VERY END
IS NEVER THE FINAL END
it's never the final end
and the words i was told
will stay with me til i'm old
until my last december

Fantasically Stagnant

stuck in the literal
not in the fantastical
this imagination is stagnant
if only these dreams
these strange visions and themes
could retain but they seem to forget
all of these thoughts running
throughout this brain, humming
melodies rhythmns that hauntingly croon
if it weren't for the madness
society's sadness
there would be no tree from which to prune
so we laugh, and we cry
though we don't know the reasons why
and we moan and we scream
please let all of this just be a dream!
inside the subliminal
at this point it's pivotal
if not handled just right it may die
to the master of dreams
the lucidity king
before him it is all life that lies
with a splashing of colours
strange patterns and murmurs
the canvas we paint on beginning to fall
to the brink of madness
where all of our sadness
collectively gathers to call

Senate Floor
09:08

<v1>
will we keep on fighting
this illegal war
will we keep on raping
everyone like they're whores
will we keep on killing
in the name of peace
will we keep destroying
when we know we should cease?
what will we do when we realize the choices that we've made
cannot be retracted
how will we handle it when all the world is dead, there is no more
have we taken an axe to our heads?
<CHORUS>
What are they thinking
what are they doing
out on the senate floor
do they care
are they aware
of how the rest of us feel?
what are they thinking
what are they doing
out on the senate floor
sit with jaws on the ground
as they strip off our rights
and then send us to war
<v2>
when will we stand up
and take back our lives
when will we expose
all of their lies
when will we open up
our tightly closed eyes
have we become blind
to all the deceit that they try
how come so many people believe we are in hot water
but they just watch it boil
why don't they try to do something instead of bitch and worry
are they really that spoiled?
who is the master
is it us or them
where is the truth
is it here in our heads
can we be trusted
to help run this world
or is it just a lost cause
have we given it all away
when everything is falling down and the world is in ruins
government will realize their failure <x2>

Pirates of the Black Tar

y'arr! y'arr!
the oil is not ours!
y'arr! y'arr!
the pirates of the black tar!
they make record profits with each passing season
and steal from the poor without any reason
the shipping increases the price of our food
the truckers are losing their fair share of loot
big business will never help our economy
surely this is deceiving robbery
the government is stealing from you and from me
open your eyes to the blatant robbery
how come they can never tell us the truth
they hide from us all of the proof
horrifically we are exporting our industries
surely this will destroy the economy
take back what is ours
take back what is ours
take back what is ours
FROM THE PIRATES OF THE BLACK TAR!
so pick up your pens and bullhorns and fists
and fight back en masse with intelligent twists
it is time to reclaim all the freedom we've lost
come with me now let's show democracy we are the boss
we must not stay blind to this highway robbery
come everyone let's reclaim the economy

They alter then they falter then the fall like a pack of wolves.
Never will it ever be like this, never will it be the same...
