Let the white wash over you
Let the Godspot see you through
There is nothing you could do
So let the white wash over you
Let the bodies float away
Into the oceans vast display
There is nothing you could say
To make death grant you a stay
Let the white was over you
Let the Godspot see you through
There is nothing you can do
So let the white wash over you

Girl because of you I'm losing my mind
Shadow of the ingrate, hate is all that's left behind
How does a Bolshevik trick you into bed?
"Please clean that objectivist shit from your head"
Aryan Rand damn you've got it going on
Eyes of blue and hair of blonde
Have an affair with a married man
Got his address off the local bulletin
Aryan Rand made a gross misuse of me
She tied me up and made me call her Dagny
"Face the truth communism's dead"
I'll follow her instead
Aryan Rand damn you've got it going on
Eyes of blue and hair of blonde
Oh how I wish I had a magic wand
to make you appear before me

We won the war, nobody cheered when we came home
What was it for? Ask yourselves: "What you were for"?
I went to school, I came out indifferent
It must have worked, everyone here is indifferent too.
Just give in you might as well give up
There's only so much for one man to take
Give in you might as well give up
Everyone wants a piece of the take
Give in you might as well give up
Everyone knows it takes two to take
Give in you might as well give up
All I ever wanted was just a taste
I fall asleep, to the voices of the paranoid
Conspiracy, Cover-ups and mind control
Is it easier to fear in your unknown?
Then take a look in the mirror
And you fear you wasted your life.
I won the war, I came out indifferent
It must have worked, everyone here is indifferent to me
What was it for? You really wanna know?
Take a look at my gun, and ask it what you were for.

When they've got you by the throat, you're hanging from the rope
God is on their side, gone is all hope
Can you be the one to answer the gun? Listen to the hum of a brain come undone
Don't worry baby cause it ain't alright
living to be given more of the same
Don't fight it baby we're safer off the grid
living to be driven like lemmings off a cliff
Feet are in the river, body starts to shiver
to think you were delivered an innocent sinner
shocked into belief the tattoo on your sleeve
a little voice inside you screams you were deceived
Don't worry baby cause it ain't alright
living to be given more of the same
Don't fight it baby we're safer off the grid
the boredom eats your silence its the meat that keeps you tame
When the stars are in the sky
You think you've seen a sign
The cleaners must have left
something behind
Welcome to the club
Our brains have all been scrubbed

Bleeding White

Called you up drunk late last night
For no other reason than to start a fight
Just before you hung up the phone
I said "I'm fucking tired of being alone"
Well if its you or me I guess it's you
Survivals your game that's what you will do
I can't be here on my own
They'll find the bodies sometime soon
Girl you know I'd bleed white for you if it would make you stay
All the rotten shit I pull just drives you away
I don't know what I could do, or what I could say
All I know is how awful it feels, to be this way.
Followed you home from work last night
Chased you to the door and forced my way inside
You can call the cops I'll never stop
Until they pry my dead hands from your throat

Common Ground

The landslide never buries you, exactly how you want it to
There's always just enough room
To breathe and let the light shine through
Why can't you see? This isn't me
Why can't you see? This isn't free
The Coffin never covers truth: There's something wrong inside of you
Always just enough room, for her to be there too
Why can't you see? This isn't me
Why can't you see? This isn't free

Good morning my little Mourning Dove
Last night you said you'd had enough
I tried to salvage the last bit of love
But swimming's hard when the sea gets rough
And here she comes again, dressed in black
The way she looks at me it makes me sad
The only faith I have is you will let me down
The only bed I made is right here in the ground
Good morning my little Mourning Dove
Last night she said, she had enough
I tried to give her the last bit of love
But giving's hard when there ain't enough
And here she comes again, dressed in black
The way she looks at me makes me mad
The only faith I have is she will let me down
The only bed I made is right here in the ground
And its alright and I hope to god that its the last time

In California where the Redwoods grow tall enough to block the suns bright glow. There's a place for the rich and powerful, where they can get away from it all.
I've heard a lot of conspiracies about what goes on behind those trees. So I hitched a ride from Crescent City, figured I'd go see what I could see.
I had a friend who was a cook, he said "Man I'll get you in come take a look" Well imagine my surprise when all I'd see, was nothing more than drunken revelry.
Under a starless sky, an Owl looked upon an effigy burn til dawn. I couldn't tell what they were on, but I said "man what the hell lets get it on"
It just so happened I had with me, about a hundred tabs of LSD.

Maybe You Were Right

When you bled out did you see through the clouds?
The air was hot and loud, as the people began to shout.
I would never say, we are better of this way
I'll be there in that state, if you want to take my place.
Maybe you were right all along, how long can you fight them on your own.
When you figured out you could be part of the crowd.
Did it freak you out? When their voice came through your mouth.
I would not defend, ever watching it again
I'll be there as a friend should you ever seek revenge.
Maybe you were right all along, but how long can you fight them on your own.
And what if you've been right all along? Is it worth the fight, if your alone?

Why sell your soul, when you can lose it along the way?
You stay here long enough baby you'll get paid
The pressure in your head, will bring about the dread
A loss of faith becomes a fear of death
No answers, only more questions
their hero's are villains to you
This absurdist nomare is a painful cross to bear
when awake feels like asleep
The future is as cold as your dead gray eyes
Its a future filled with compromise
No answers, only more questions
their hero's are villains to you

A crane with a broken neck still holds its head up high
The ashes from volcanoes fall gently from the sky
A field filled with frozen men don't bother asking why
There's No Heart for the Mercy Kill?
No Heart for the Mercy Kill
Bayonets for babies, and they'll ignore the cries
With bounded hands, you'll slay them, fill your pockets with their eyes
Don't ask for forgiveness, if its penance you despise
No Heart for the Mercy Kill
There's no Heart for the Mercy Kill
Their faith is like a fire, burning deep inside of hell
The masses scream for murder as the manic cast their spell
There's no alive behind those eyes, the skins become a shell
No Heart for the Mercy Kill
There's No Heart for the Mercy Kill
So flush away your problems, the fish are feeling fine
With insect sensuality, they pluck you from the vine
and take away your humanity like its some sort of prize
No Heart for the Mercy Kill
There's no Heart for the Mercy Kill

I fell through a plot hole just the other day
A loosely written story about a fish that got away
All tied up and threatened, I claimed I was a witch
As my luck would have it there was a Solar eclipse
Cherry Odds
I was in the sewers searching for a coin
my grandpa left down a manhole when he was just a boy
I flashed a set of eyes and an alligator smiles
right between his teeth was my grandpa's lucky dime
Cherry Odds
A pretty girl once told me if I was ever in Peru
To look up and she'd know just what to do
An Ayahuasca Journey brought me to a snake
And when its skin became me, she said I was awake

The kids don't do enough drugs these days
At least not the good ones anyways
I'd really like to leave this place
For somewhere the Air Raid siren sounds on Christmas
There's so many shitty songs about California
I think they are all a bunch of lies
Cause I've been to California, but I never wrote any songs
I went to the doctor cause I had a wolf in me
The doctor gave me some pills, and put that wolf down
I regret telling everyone I was crazy
because man I really miss that wolf sometimes
You're only with me because you got tired of being right
I'm only with you because I got bored of having fun
The best part of being disfigured is I finally got one up on you
The worst part, nobody believes i could have you
God created science to write himself out of history
History wrote him back in, because they needed someone to blame
I had a dream where i saw my own grave
written on the headstone: "here lies a man who they refused to save"
I don't do enough drugs these days
At least not the good ones anyways.

I was on a train travelling to Seefeld in Austria and had nothing but the Alps to look over from the windows. This was a perfect compliment to the environment I was in

I don't know any of the musicians on this lp/cd but have heard of the struggle against the pipeline in Dakota, so I bought it for that alone. The music is actually quite good. Surprise yourself and take a punt.

KALOS EIDOS SKOPEO
by COMACOZER
supported by 4 fans who also own “The Music of Decline”
Quite a journey of an album! Hypnotically dizzy and dense guitars over slow, thick basslines. Great songs to get lost in with a nice set of headphones. And the packaging is fantastic. 3D lenticular with some beautifully colored vinyl. The pressing is clean, and the quality is outstanding. A must have !!
