The Old, Cold War
05:21
|
|
||
the eyes share nothing
a look of disdain
what do you want to say?
silent table
uneasy peace
longing for a release
the old cold war
the old cold war
give nothing away
careful what you say
save your purity
for the old cold war
remember every lie
recorded and filed
to bring up in time
for the old cold war
every misstep
every sideways glance
waiting for a chance
to start the old cold war
count up all the days
since there was a reason
just for a season
the old cold war

Dark Lord
05:55
|
|

Dark Lord
Take my ego
Warring concepts
Assail my perception
Dark Lord
Blitz my essence
into obscurity
Dark Lord
My anima waits
to be set free
from corporeality

Absent King
04:01
|
|
||
just a fleshy mess
a mistake, at best
no eternal soul
nothing after this
a mutation of words
a messianic spark
the controlling hand
of an absent god
the absent king
of the human being
they’ve written a book
in an unknown tongue
the analogion
a gossip’s bliss
bring him your gold
give him your desire
for the darkened mills
keep stoking the fire
the absent king
of the human being

Eyes of Glass
05:16
|
|
||
Surveying reality
Noticing discrepancies
Logic is a fallacy
The centre cannot hold
Regulation failing
Manipulation emerged as
Indisputible
Obscured horizon
Tenebrosity
Alien twilight
Unattached existence
Unsubstantial form
All is gone

Serried Ranks
04:07
|
|
||
Mow it all down
You shit on my world
I shit on your word
The bible whores
Soaking lies
A torrid wrench
Mow it all down
The empty halls
Of an irrelevant god
Dagger in hand
Rifles high
Side by side
Ready to die
Ready to die

Song for Chirra
02:59
|
|
||
The death bringer
The shape of things to come
Could not stop
The death of his love
Magna
With libidinous eyes
Terminated Chira
Recondite in lies
Chira
Progenitor of Thoth
Chira
Petitioner lost

Old Gwilym Evans

Golden solution
Pour the ale
Sweet abandon
Quarrymen’s tale
Pour the ale
Walking on air
Follow the beloved young
“Feed me
Lie with me”
Awoken naked
Thorns in his side
Old Gwilym Evans
Nowhere to hide
