MOTHERLODE
03:31

A house of one's is full of lungs,
It has no chairs, no walls.
There is no meaning, the time you’re living,
There is no room for us.
There is time, there is time, but there's no future for us.
There’s some space, there’s some space, but there’s no room for us.
No
No home
Motherlode
Motherlode, and it's done.
I've been married to the future for so many years
‘cause only love things that cannot be real.
But I recognize I was better at being a kid,
now my body screams and screams.
Promised Land was actually unsafety,
corruptibility, crudity, faulty.
Not easy tricks nor meritocracy
Chronic life fatigue
Just wanna reach what I seek.
In my glorious isolation
I’m illuminated by the marvellous incandescence
of my electrically charged nerves.

Material Weight

Feel the rain is only a construction.
There’s no need to bound into abstraction.
Word’s domain belongs to the receiver
but there’s a meaning in the voice of a believer.
Feel the pain is only a construction.
There’s no need to bound into abstraction.
Hesitate and you’ll be grieving
for these eternal needs of feelings.
Material weight.
I can take it.
Impressions and sense.
I can take it.
Material weight.
I can take it.
Stay awake.
Feel the load of losing my connections.
No control, I can’t find the directions.
Feel the load of losing my connections.
No control, I can’t find the directions.
No connections.
No directions.
No connections.
No directions.
Material weight.
I can take it.
Impressions and sense.
I can take it.
Material weight.
I can take it.
Stay awake.
I can take it.
Fragile structure.
Material weight.
I can take it.

Me da la impresión de que estamos navegando,
como flotando en medio de un desastre.
Por lo menos tener la angustia de la tragedia.
A eso me refiero.
Por eso yo me pregunto:
¿habremos llegado al límite
de lo que podemos dar?

Reliquias
03:11

Smoked glass
Well cut
Claiming the useless
Our legacy
Lack of lack
Gaze at the ground
Yet you’re stepping on my chest
But never fall across the gap
The vault is now a roof
But we haven't even noticed
The spire has been bricked up
Forgetting all the field behind
The jewels of my grandparents
are now ice and ash.
The voices of my grandparents
are now ice and ash.
How to set up, how to set up
without plowing the ground?
How to set up, how to set up
without tilling the land?
That
silence
gives more facts
than a sharp image.
Vestige
Relic
Narrow
Shadow
Time to envision cause only see
ideology and ghost, ideology and ghosts.
Time to envision cause only see
ideology and ghost, ideology and ghosts.
Neck pain
Circles of search
Can see
The orchard’s asleep
In my village
Cinder covers the green
Recollect
Apples grew without effort
And now
They don’t even taste
They don’t even taste
That virtue is gone
Colorless
Color
Vestige
Relic
Narrow
Shadow
Time to envision cause only see
ideology and ghost, ideology and ghosts.
Time to envision cause only see
ideology and ghost, ideology and ghosts.

You don't have to know
You don't have to be here
You're stuck
The glass is empty
Crowds pull
Nowhere
I'm talking like I mean it
I am talking like I mean
I slip through the same words
For yelling from too close
Not tonight
You don't have to know
You don't have to be here
This time
We merge into some
things won’t be
Never the same
I'm moving like I mean it
I am moving like I mean
But as long as this murk lasts
Our ideas will clash
with the concrete
Nous
The Truth must dazzle gradually
Or every man be blind —

The Mill
04:44

|

People's hearts devour emotions.
Saturn said that sets us free.
Great emotions are fed by people.
Big-eyed Narcissus drowns us in the spring.
In this field everybody is crying,
in the other one, they wait to live.
Spinning like a mill,
spinning like a mill, spinning like a mill.
Covered in a starry velvet shroud.
Uhhhhh uhh uhh, I remain still.
Weather
erodes
my own
contour.
Craving
to leave
but I remain still.
I shelter a diamond knife in my chest of fire.
Edges shine brighter between my guts.
Pluck wild lilacs while they’re intact,
before the tongue of pain could crack
I see everybody’s trying.
I heard a black dog bark far from here.
I swear everybody’s trying.
Spinning like a mill,
spinning like a mill, spinning like a mill.
I coat you in petals and warmth.
Uhhhhh uhh uhh.
Uhhhh uhh uhh.
Weather
erodes
my own
contour.
Craving
to leave
but I remain still.

Are you scared?
Be not afeard.
The isle is full of noises,
sounds, and sweet airs
that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
will hum about mine ears, and
sometime voices that,
if I then had waked after long sleep
will make me sleep again.
And then in dreaming
the clouds methought
would open and show riches
ready to drop upon me,
that when I waked
I cried to dream again.

Helicóptero
02:26

|

There’s too many of us in this massive pool,
touching each other’s bodies.
Some will drown, others will reach the surface.
Trying to guess the future, trying to guess the future.
They can’t see,
oh, they can’t see.
Uncertainty,
uncertainty.

Oneness
02:35
|
|
||
We are the ones that rule
We are the ones who choose
Their sovereignty
A reining mind
Equals constraint
De-divinize
Fade out
Harmonic social order is naturally broken
Fade to black
Sharp drift
Repair the light
Blow out
So I claimed once
And I’ll do it again
Oneness (Despite) is the answer (procrastination)
Oneness (Against) is the answer (discrimination)
Oneness (In spite) is the answer (social isolation)
Oneness (Against) is the answer (constant oppression)
We are the ones that rule
We are the ones who choose
I’ve just become aware
No longer meek
They tried to cut us down
Jamming up
but they failed
They conquer meaningless
I feel like I belong
No need to knock
Every wall is gone
Air is clear
I claimed once and I’ll do it
so just breathe
Again
Oneness (Despite) is the answer (procrastination)
Oneness (Against) is the answer (discrimination)
Oneness (In spite) is the answer (social isolation)
Oneness (Against) is the answer (constant oppression)
Oneness is the answer (O, N, E, N, E, S, S)

Interlude III - El Deseo
00:49
|
|
||
Hunger, thirsty of a deep touch,
vulture of the punctum on my soul.
Anger, fury and collapse.
I’m a living corpse, a beauty fan.
Flesh and bones, aura and souls.
Bodies enter, people don’t.
I feel alone.
Amazed by feelings: I’d like to be a cloud
to rain every pain desires cause me down.
But I’m the mist that once grabbed and kissed.
The one you never trapped,
the one you never miss.
I want to.

Try not to close your eyes.
Chances are that you’ll jump.
Try not to close your eyes.
Try not to close your eyes.
You never know where you will wake up.
Try not to close your eyes.
Burdened by my own half time,
overly still - I am.
Not only did I lose the track,
but I didn’t even start to ask.
Where did I go?
I go
Do I still feel?
I feel
Back to top
The groove is fast,
it reached me.
I opened my eyes
and bumped into somebody new
(bumped into someone new).
The groove is fast,
it fooled me.
I opened my eyes
to someone I already knew
(someone I knew).
The lane is over now.
Look up and see.
The ride is over now.
Get up and leave.
Some things happen,
some things you miss.
Some are forgotten,
others stay always here.
The image remains in place.
The place remains the same.
The lane is over now.
Look up and see.
The ride is over now.
Get up and leave.
You are here until you stray.
You are here until you cease.
You are here until you burst
and another image appears.
The lane is over now.
Look up and see.
The ride is over now.
Get up and leave.
Look up.
Get up.
Try not to close your eyes.
You never know where you will wake up.
Try not to close your eyes.

To Whom It May Concern

It’s time,
rewind.
To build
the ruin.
Device
designs.
Expand
the gang
Contact,
all's task.
I would not call wellness not having self-awareness.
I am more reckless since I lost the fear of death.
For nonsense contingency, the pill of irony.
Empathy is medicine for alien realities.

I first opened my eyes.
Saw the light in the shadows.
Tears are falling down your checks.
Most beautiful smile you ever had.
In the beginning the innocence was ours.
You taught me what to do and
I responded the only way I knew.
Your statement was my truth and
that’s the path I didn't take.
Uhhh uhh uh-uh.
Uhhh uhh uh-uh.
One day diving into my fears
the right and wrong disappeared.
If I ever call out your name
will there be somebody to hear?
Uhhh uhh uh-uh.
Uhhh uhh uh-uh.
Uhhh uhh uh-uh.
If you want to.
If you want to.
If you want to.
If you want to.
