I'm putting skin to the ground
blowing smoke to form a cloud (so form a crowd)
because words are only wind
I'm a snake, and I'm proud
unashamed of my background
but don't look too deep
cause I can't swim
History time again, reading of a better time
memories of gold never stain
what about the gods, worries, wars and bedtime stories?
I was never told better tales
because my only virtue is riding in the dark
I'll only fucking hurt you if you can't deal with the sparks
Every old mind has a secret entry hole for you to find
where every gold mine has a saviour
so never let go of a word that's handed down
There's danger in the grass, a fire in my heart
I'm burning wax as I go straight to the sun
don't follow if you can't take wing against a faster beast
don't fall asleep if you can't dream

I'm gona make a statement to make some changes to the world
I'm talking of revolutions
it's gona raise the questions that relate us all
why are we passing judgement?
we all want the same thing right?
can't we all just get along?
This is honours strength knocking at your door
this is honesty like it or not
we are one or two mistakes from the past and we're here on your doorstep now its the front line
I'm gona make a statement to make some changes to the world
I'm talking of revolutions
It's gona raise the questions that relate us all
why are we passing judgement?
we all want the same thing right?
can't we all just get along?

I wanna start belated,
bore into an understanding life when it's not rewarding rules that waver
punishing the stepping out of line
that's the life that's alright
so I'll stop pretending
trying to be someone that I'm not
it'll compliment me and I'll say thanks for gratuitous unrelenting belief in a self that can't exist
shaping a world that is in my favour
not just a dream
shaped by a world where the only danger is being alive
the softest parts on paper
keep the smallest eyes from traumatising
hang the bigger picture from the television screen so all the fires can be seen
they grow up so fast

Split Second Opinion

What is this afresh hell?
I got that idea from burning blunt lips but I can't tell if that ideals gonna stand
I stand alone, I watch, I wait, I wonder
I hear the sound of wooden thunder coming soon
I know what to do when I say to people I feel something else
and I see their eyes glaze over and they can't think
well today you are a person but tomorrows on its way
I make no promises that the slot machines won't spin the other way
We're standing on the lines
of the findings of our time
and we're following the light from the shadows
I know that it's true but I save it for the good of rainy days
not like anybody listens to me anyway
plus I don't think that I'm gospel, I'm just human after all
so maybe I will wait til after I've achieved a better life for myself
then still not hand down words
this business in itself is absolute and it haunts me
it's got deals that I can't sell
got an appeal to the damned
I'm blind so I am lost, I traipse, I wander
I hear the distant sound of thunder
