   Artificial Chemistry

   4:53
   Lyrics

   Every morning inside me, after a seeming awakening you're felt as pain somewhere around my esophagus Somewhere in my brain you pound on the walls where no good pill can reach till I fall asleep on artificial chemistry In a hollow in my head a shell of you is left a mental addiction, tainted with emotion Sometimes, brimming with you, drenched in height, and the damp slides down the curves of my eyes so the things I wrote spill out into the open the sorrowful theory of choosing a mirage, out of something like blood, and I write it on paper till I'm fucked up on artificial chemistry Up the sandy wall of the pit of your step-heart every day I climb and climb and slide back down Strip away the excess of a habit-soul, this damned bond the thrill of combining, the pleasure of watching the reaction with you so the things I wrote spill out into the open till I fall asleep on artificial chemistry

   Communication With The Deaf

   5:47
   Lyrics

   Beside the bottles, for drinking beside the crowds, for dancing beside bodies, for sleeping beside savages, in the middle of fighting Six thousand four hundred centuries to understand getting out of this cycle instead of rotting I'm an unwanted part for this machine a technical error in the lab talking to the walls going back to the caves to be understood Cities overflowing with men and women beside human beings, how alone my mind is pounding on every door reaching into thoughts, communication with the deaf An intersection tired of all the comings and goings in the traffic of people, how alone my mind is beside idiots, for laughing beside you, even for hurting I'm an unwanted part for this machine a technical error in the lab talking to the walls

   Yellow Harmony (ft. Belle Nava)

   4:29
   Lyrics

   Don't listen to my voice, it carries a yellow harmony Don't touch my heart, it has a cold disease Don't come near my soul, it's been cast out for years Don't touch my brain, it's caught the contagion of pain and from right there, far away, give me an otherworldly feeling give me some echo of a creature that's alive and get used to me like a painting, through the channel of your gaze because I can't move out of the black frame Be there, but be parallel, be with me, but don't touch me no urge to bond or react or whatever, I'm scared, don't Don't come looking for me, I'll get lost; don't sleep with me, I'll diminish Don't leave me, I'll die, I'll turn into low frequencies Don't touch my shadow, it holds a spectrum of lust my restless nature has a breath that breaks off Don't touch my scent, it keeps a cage in your chest because breathing in your smell makes a futile connection

   Button of Doom

   4:43
   Lyrics

   With the flimsy ropes of your now-and-then longing I'm rescued, and I go under In the space-holes of the abstract image of your face I'm trapped every day, and I fall asleep From the estimated altitude of your otherworldly soul I panic every time, and I fall From the seasonal crowds of your new adolescence I rise from heart to lips, and I go silent Because in the lab the doctor puts me under the microscope for the final test after reporting the result to the boss, on his orders, he presses the lab's button of doom From the whirlwind you made and the storm you stirred up, you snap bone-dry and I bend, soaking wet From the nausea of falling and the urge to give back the poisoned fruit, you die and I diminish Though I see you too, at the center of my attention, laughing at the roots of the tree, I understand you From the waterfall of time and the bounds of the possible and this world, I step out, and I leave you

   Underneath the Ocean (ft. Belle Nava)

   4:02
   Lyrics

   Life underneath the ocean of isolation, sleeping in the dark blue depths of the sea, calm, I need these more than air, that's all You dance on the water and see more of the world I'll lighten you of the lead in my body I won't wake from my sleep underwater, go O recurring night, you won't let go go, I have to think, I'm in a state of emergency Empty surroundings, the long whistle of silence, emotional stillness, the tides at a standstill, weightlessness, I need these more than gravity I've got an open appetite for flying over the valley My loneliness in the crowd, my crowd of one, the height of my soul, you never reached them Fertile soil for growing sick identities take your foot off my heart's territory, your hands off my mind

   People

   5:06
   Lyrics

   People loot my parts and my soul on the cheap in the world's last year they buy three days of happiness I just watch, like nothing matters to me at all little by little I've turned into a postmodernist patient The feeling of what I say is nowhere on my face even my thoughts don't match the frames of my movement I nod along to people's grief I imitate their emotional reactions Mornings I bring raw meat to the zoo of my beliefs to go back to the city I buy guns and traps People chase progress and I decline people want bad things and I go along They add you to the heroic celebration at night they cross you off the classified lists People buy up genius and hoard it but what do people do with your ideas how easily they cheer for me from a nice distance people want you close so they can drag you through the filth People insist air is no urgent need people justify it and say it's no big deal People come up with an initiative for suicide but what are people doing about life prevention

   Free Spirit

   5:18
   Lyrics

   One cold night in the street you look at your hands you find yourself facing two eyes with your look you stir up a mysterious feeling your whole being thrills, but you deny it My love, every day you're changing, form to form swayed by every breeze and every storm I'm the one who drew you this way I mended your wounded heart in my arms the one who operated on the wounds of your soul who designed your thoughts night and day without rest I kept my heart busy with your simple sentences and with difficulty I got used to your simple existence I freed you from the need for empty wishes I sent you off into the real world The neutral feeling in your free spirit is all you still remember of me Inside me I feel an imaginary welling up moments, from afar, when you're restless a beautiful enemy, made from my own essence by forgetting you I faded out of myself You drifted away from me and I grew restless I endured the days, the nights I couldn't sleep I need a little time to go cold on you to become like the world that crushed me

   Nature's Guilt

   5:07
   Lyrics

   The pupils of your beautiful eyes are dilating the blood flow in your brain is rising you don't believe the scenes you saw there's no escape from the tormenting truth In your room, busy with a solitary massacre: the fact that you haven't answered your messages for thirteen days you want to lose every tissue of your memory you want to give your poisoned experience back to the world Feeling like a wounded animal you head for the water you lick your wounds and slowly fall asleep In the morning you wake in the forest and don't remember your name there's nothing in your free land but the smell of revenge You feel a lot of pain in your jaws meaning you were clenching your teeth in your sleep The fact that the geometry of your face isn't like the animals' means you're a breed they didn't choose The fact that wherever you go you take those scenes with you means you tear innocent people apart like a wolf The fact that you're the crop of human farming in a zoo means you'll never forgive nature's guilt The fact that the way people act doesn't look like they want you means not one living particle in nature is worried about you The fact that you feel a lot of pain in your jaw means you were clenching your teeth in your sleep The fact that you're the newborn predator of this very season the fact that you're the next link in the chain of breeding

   The Black Rose

   5:38
   Lyrics

   The corpse of a black rose is all I have of you my sad afternoons when I loathe being alone and brief delusions that you're sitting beside me I'm fog close to the ground, a river close to the waterfall Memory tissue in the brain, forced memories life beneath hell, the only choice you've got a blanket whose fibers smell of sleeping with you the rim of a glass of water that has tasted your lips Water and sunlight and lullabies, everything I gave you Black rose close to me, I'm a cloud at the mercy of the wind I planted your body in a cleft in my skin I kept your soul in my veins along with my blood Naked black rose in the fifth season of the cold year two identities in one body, meaning a painful coexistence the feeling of being kept from you between the two poles of a game our nightly meetings in parallel lives I'm the fruit of the tree of illusion, my flawless black rose in the middle of a still autumn, a little leaf, dancing I'm an unreached height, as high as my drunkenness I'm snow riding the storm, a piece of what lies beyond being

    Mercurial Fountains

    5:27
    Lyrics

    I live in a land that from God's realm has been cut off by high glass walls Before my exile God sucked the soul out of my body and you were the angel he breathed my soul into Exiled shards along the border at night lie in wait to seize the hearts of stray angels And I, whose soul is lost, sense a scent in my sleep sometimes a vague image of a wish coming true The scent of fresh grass under your bare feet I sense it from this side of the border, and the tremor of your laugh The mercurial fountains raining down on your body slide down your skin with the gusts of humid wind From behind the border glass sometimes you stare at me you think I'm a painting, the mental image of a body you think I'm a product of nature's cycle that a coastal storm sometimes washes up to the edge of the border You have no idea that I'm your estranged self and you're the calm of my soul, and I'm your estranged self You have no idea that you're every side of me you're the cells of my heart, the particles beneath my soul You don't know at all that you're that same insane me for my tired soul you're the loveliest cup And the clouds come down and the glass fills with damp and your face, with a smile, fades and dwindles from my sight

    Xanax

    4:29
    Lyrics

    God, this recurring image of your face in my sleep my half-open eyelids filled with water again the details of your face being sent to memory an analyst called the mind that's incapable of understanding love the brain's decision to react to the memory through the nerves that lead to the virgin heart the release of pain-triggering hormones into my blood through the arteries the message of pain reaches every part of me The evil doctor's irrelevant, money-making bullshit the pink, routine prescription of that man in white an emotional disaster, by Murphy's laws a chemical that he recommends Without a second thought, at the shelf, after the pink pills a chemical product, an industrial derivative swallowing the pink ones to conquer comfort to break through the security walls to escape my own self that's addicted to you absorbed through the stomach wall, into the damned blood And the pink flakes storm the brain and quietly bury you, the corpses of cursed memories my mind gives up its endless confirming and refuting and weightlessness eases the pulse's restlessness a little I set foot on the shore, outside the cage doors and the lump in my throat sinks a little lower down the windpipe

    Good Happening

    6:20
    Lyrics

    When, miles away from me, you feel the longing my heart has been cold for days from this symmetrical love When, hours from now, the lonely days are yours my mind has given up on the recurring delusions When every one of your cells wants a safe embrace when all your damned memories start to talk When you were leaving me, the lights of the sea's lighthouses died the termites of fantasy ate the lifeboat the sea angels gave me over to the waves the monstrous waves of terror took me to the edge of death When every regret adds you to death when all the philosophical sorrows drive you crazy the sorrows that close in on you however much you laugh breaths slowly get used to the smell of a corpse When you want to talk to the walls and you can't when there's nothing in your windpipe but a chronic lump When everything around you is so good you're sick of it you see you've grown old waiting for a good happening When you're empty and aching inside you drag your tear-filled eyes across cold windowpanes When you tear your whole being apart with the need for a kiss you take refuge in photos to be kissed When I'm not there for your soul to stay warm under my skin

    Nothing Will Get Better

    5:15
    Lyrics

    When someone like you leaves, someone like me dies someone like God suddenly takes back everything he gave The sky gets light, so why is your heart still night and your life in your throat, every day closer to your lips You hate what you believe, a craving for death in your head you want to be over, like your torn-up wishes No one like you is coming to warm this cold body but every day I'm more alive, so I feel the pain more You're the piece of my heart that blood runs through take you from me and my peace goes with you You're the corners of the lips that can laugh with you take you from me and my feelings show No one like you is coming and nothing will get better hard days go by, the root still remains No one takes your place, nothing gets any calmer because a wild feeling says nothing will get better Until an angel arrives after long years and the corners of your lips pull apart, open in a laugh Look, the sun is still warm, its light no less at all but when you really think about it, nothing, nothing has gotten better You're the relief of a pain that's been with me for years take you from me and it tears out my foundations You're the part of my eye that can only sleep with you take you from me and it won't blink till morning
