In the blindness you’ll see What you never knew about me Damage case just in case You won’t forget about me Time is the enemy of all the things that you see Chorus: Long after I my scent is gone You’ll still be hangin’ on Go on and walk away It’s all the same , all the same In the light things always seem So much bigger to me A million things that you dispise About yourself but you blame me There’s a risk that I’ll take Drank a million bottles, such a waste In the end it’s all the same You can’t burn away my name Chorus: Long after I my scent is gone You’ll still be hangin’ on Go on and walk away It’s all the same , all the same (Bridge 1 ) And now there’s not much left Left to do, but look away Just look away But when you look back it never looks the same The color gets muted and changed And now you know there’s no such thing Your memory is just as blind It’s just as blind as a fool like me From the start now to the end You wont erase me from your head Chorus: Long after I my scent is gone You’ll still be hangin’ on Go on and walk away It’s all the same , all the same (Bridge 2) And now I am going down In your book Your book of stone Now I am forever Etched into your book of shame Chorus: Long after I my scent is gone You’ll still be hangin’ on Go on and walk away It’s all the same , all the same ©2014 Nam Trip Music (BMI) Administered by Tunecore

Black steel waves of night Hold me in my bed dragging me Into that place That place again Wound up so tight No one understands unchain my feet unchain my hands Your words to blame for this awful mess it just cant be me you must know this Wound up so tight No one understands unchain my feet unchain my hands Blue moon won’t come not tonight or ever 'til then I’ll be on the edge on the edge of forever Wound up so tight No one understands unchain my feet unchain my hands ©2014 Nam Trip Music (BMI) Administered by Tunecore

Machines go down the road And back they come again Stopping only to reload And shoot their bullets again In the trunk the animals rage Fighting in the dark rolling cage Stopping only to reload And start their fight again (Chorus) You can’t deny The sounds you hear Or the sharpened edge of mounting fear You can’t escape The pending bloody rape Or the child It creates Your peace of mind is shrinking fast at events you’ve witness there’s nothing new or nothing you can do the truth will play out vicious The woman sits at the bar Lipstick butts fill the tray Outside the roar of the car Is not to far away The man speaks and she agrees She knows its lies but still believes In her fatal ventured wish Its his bloody power hungry dish You can’t deny The scene you witness Or jump the unbridgeable distance You can’t intervene To stop this tragic scene you stand back at deaths insistence Your peace of mind is shrinking fast at events you’ve witness there’s nothing new or nothing you can do the truth will play out vicious The angels go up and fly Back and forth around the sky Carrying holy recipe books Running errands for the cooks Stealing cheap wine and vodka for the holy rites there’s a party getting started there be no sleep tonight You can’t deny That sinking feeling Life has passed you by That sharpened edge Will honor its pledge And stop your tires from squealing Your peace of mind is shrinking fast at events you’ve witness there’s nothing new or nothing you can do the truth will play out vicious ©2014 Nam Trip Music (BMI) Administered by Tunecore

Bloody Foot Blues 03:16
lyrics

(Verse 1) I sit at the edge and watch as you slowly move around- your hands are busy and your feet don’t touch the ground- you say you don’t love me and you can’t stay anymore- I was left alone again when you walked out that door[ was left alone again when you walked out that door- There she goes- (Verse 2) I spend my nights shuffling around the dirty streets- blisters and bleeding sores open up all over my feet- I spend my days scraping around for something to eat- and thinking of you again and the love that was so sweet- thinking of you again and the love that was so sweet- the love that was so sweet- (Verse 3) Is it the ruin of man in need of a woman so much?- is he made weaker, if to flourish from her touch?- a walking a disaster the people look away- turnand run from me faster my eyes turn from blue to grey- my eyes turn from blue to grey- (Chorus) I’ve worn out my welcome I’ve worn out my shoes I’ve worn out my woman, baby got the bloody foot blues I’ve worn out the sidewalk Walking the street They’ve had enough of me sleeping on the beach the cops chase me around While I look for you its the same in every town got the bloody foot blues (Verse 4) I sat at the edge and watched as you slowly moved around- your hands were busy and your feet don’t touch the ground- you said you don’t love me and you can’t stay anymore- i’m left alone again when you walked out the door when you walked out the door- You’re gone for good ©2014 Nam Trip Music (BMI) Administered by Tunecore

Empty Space 02:13
lyrics

The arrow of time Moves in one direction Velocity increases Eludes detection It folds in half Then half again Pulling us back To the beginning Or the end From the zero Take one away Starting up the count To the Lord’s day Everything Comes from nothing The empty space is Gravity crushing (Chorus) The cherub trumpets Will blow the tune Angels with their harps Lit by the moon The harmony Is discorded Entropy Is rewarded I overlay My superstitions On your superposition We walk the Planck In the other direction And overlap Another dimension ©2014 Nam Trip Music (BMI) Administered by Tunecore

Everything Is Fine 03:01
lyrics

We’re spied wherever we go They mean business Whatever's said is recorded To be used against us So do you speak up? So do you shout? So do you type a letter? So do you lash out? Police are on our side You are told to respect Until you’re on the radar Then you’re suspect So do you defend? So do fight back? So do you ask for mercy? So do you attack? (Chorus) But Everything is Fine Everything is Fine Everything is Fine Everything is Fine Everything is Fine Everything is Fine We’ve all been told lies That what you do is wrong Disinformation campaigns Keeps you mesmerized So do you look for truth? So do you seek wisdom? So do ask for assistance? So do you cut thru the curtain? He says we’re the enemy That we stand in his way From getting his job done And make everything OK So do you stand in the way? So do you become subversive? So do get rolled over on? So do you get sent away? (Chorus) But Everything is Fine Everything is Fine Everything is Fine Everything is Fine Everything is Fine Everything is Fine Everything is Fine ©2014 Nam Trip Music (BMI) Administered by Tunecore

(Verse 1) I’ve extend an invitation From me to you You don’t need persuasion Just a push should do Come to me my darling My intentions are true There is nothing For you I won’t do Come to me, into my arms Freedom in my grip Stand with me against the enemy Shield the whip (Chorus) We salute a different flag And pledge to each other This is a call to arms Against big brother (Verse 2) Tell me you love me I make the demand Fall to you knees I order and command You can’t be without me And no other interferes We were made for each other I make this clear Fall into my arms, love Be warm in my embrace Kiss me softly, dear Your heart beats apace (Chorus) We salute a different flag And pledge to each other This is a call to arms Against big brother (Verse 3) The starling sings all day The mockingbird calls at night By the sacred clock We conduct our rites With spring comes the thaw The chill begins in fall The fires start the summer Winter brings the end of us all Sweet baby, feel my embrace And fear no more Together we immolate and martyr our love (Chorus) We salute a different flag And pledge to each other This is a call to arms Against big brother ©2014 Nam Trip Music (BMI) Administered by Tunecore

Romantic Interlude 01:16
lyrics
buy track
I find that worry comes from not knowing what the answer is or from knowing but not wanting to do the thing that solves the problem either from a lack of comprehending the steps,not having the energy or interest in doing them or because of the physical or psychological discomfort which may or might be feared to be a part of the process vs. that weird nameless gnawing that; although everything seems OK, you still feel you're not doing what you should be doing… but the absence of which,due to either the eventually assumption of duty and conclusion of the event or the acceptance of the inevitability of the outcome finally spells true open soul happiness—that relaxed chest,deep cool breathed relaxation that almost only exists as a counter-point to stress. We forget to have faith in the wind that bends dandelion stems on overgrown highway dividers, then, on to part wheat fields like a proud mother does her baby's hair. Out under the sun everything makes sense, even hunger and thirst and skeletal animals remains along mountain trails. That relationship won't ever fail you. We have magnets in our chests. Open your heart. Relax our mind and let time do the rest ©2014 Nam Trip Music (BMI) Administered by Tunecore

(Verse 1) Heavy drops from the sky It’s a sunny day, 4th of July Every wedding, every funeral Drag on, so elemental The liquid foundation My painted smile Hides frustration Fireworks, seen for miles You can see me coming I can fly... Little birdie, My sparks shoot the sky (Verse 2) The mouth spits fire, into your eye I can’t complain I scat in style Lead, no-bull target To much to carry Dead Dead Dead Poor little guy.... My ions are free, Who leased this party? I bark Constantly (Verse 3) Who can pick it up? And carry the mantle Center of the earth I will dismantle Elijah to Elisha They say I’m insane My meat is raw Light the flame Corrosion proof heavy artillery Mattress spring Load fully (Bridge) This is test Acid tongued battery No need to get upset It’s just family Food on the table Fills my teeth Dirty air pockets Drift underneath You sick of me yet? Getting tired already? Red-hot mice dance Parades are steady Check the oil and Wash your shirt I use electric chair To comb my hair (Verse 4) The paints faded away The magic gone Paper or plastic revolution? Rated PG or final solution? How much more can you take? Sounds in the night Lonely fear, cant hide Love me do Do me wrong Not a straight thought to grab Try and read in this light ©2014 Nam Trip Music (BMI) Administered by Tunecore
