Malfunction
Shutting the systems,
Closing the mind,
Kill organisms,
Thoughts unwind.
Close the vessels,
And the valves,
Cripple the muscles,
Limbs devolve.
Snap the cycle,
Activate defences.
Turn on psycho,
Sever the senses.
Matter condenses,
Slay the soul,
Cut the nonsense,
Cloud the goal.
Fry the circuits,
Overload impulses,
Seize the audit,
Stop the choices.

Meteorite Storm
The meteorites soared ahead,
Leaving behind a trail of electric blue,
As the spider wove its silvery web.
The leaves rustled in the breeze,
The eye stared down at me,
As the stars shone with all their glory.
Nocturnals creatures,
Out they came,
Awoken form their slumber to hunt.
The clouds crept across the sky,
The dew glistened on the grass,
As the meteorites soared ahead.

Kiss, Kiss
Driving down the highway,
In her brand new Porsche,
Big sunglasses on,
Her silk scarf blowing in the wind.
A bag of money,
In the back seat,
The zip is down,
She leaves a cloud of money.
Her jewelled hands,
Clutch the leather wheel,
Her big white teeth,
Grin through her big red lips.
The brakes malfunction,
And the car flips,
A cloud of dust and dollars,
Her silk blood stained scarf billows in the wind.

Doppelgänger
He’s stolen my looks,
And read all my books,
He’s stolen my clothes,
Yes the basics too!
My underwear raided,
He’ll need smaller sizes,
He’s copied my walk,
And now knows how I talk,
He’s mirrored my hair,
And captured my flare,
He’s worked for my build,
But he isn’t as skilled,
He’s got my posture,
And pulls it off well,
My shoes he has,
That he will never fill,
My identity stolen,
It is time for a change,
Let’s shake things up,
I’ll have a range.
*A German word for any double or look-alike of a person

A Tangled Web Of Words
Victory beyond our senses
in the bright congealing light
makes nonsense of our thoughts
that spill out through the night.
A tangled web of words
of which we have no control
splatter themselves
upon the blank pages
of our mind for all time.
We are captives to our thoughts
whether they be right or wrong
as they plan to captivate our mind.
We can only capitulate
under the onslaught they bring,
lowering our defences
to the power in gifts they bring.

The Sublime
I stay awake in empty darkness
Thinking thoughts that shape me so
A recompense of all the harshness
That my life has come to know
The sanctity of dreams and worry
Weigh me down and cloud my soul
The thoughts across my mind they scurry
Looking for their lifelong goal
Seldom as I lie there thinking
Could such actions ever find
Doomed as sure the ship thats sinking
Playing stories in my mind.
I have no answer to this haunting
Safe but sure I can survive
Though life itself alone is daunting
Thoughts may keep my dreams alive.
Let the darkness sooth your senses
Take its presence by the hand
While building bridges not just fences
Drifting to your promised land...

The way to activate the seeds of your creation is by making choices about the results you want to create. When you make a choice, you activate vast human energies and resources, which otherwise go untapped.

Extraordinary
You think that I go home at night
Take off my clothes, turn out the lights
But I burn letters that I write
To you, to make you love me
Yeah, I'd drive naked through the park
And run the stop sign in the dark
Stand in the street, yell out my heart
To you, to make you love me
I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho
You may not believe in me
But I believe in you
So I still take the trash out
Does that make me too normal for you?
So dig a little deeper, cause
You still don't get it yet
See me lickin' my lips, need a primitive fix
And I'll make, I'll make you love me
I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
See me jump through hoops for you
You stand there watching me performing
What exactly do you do?
Have you ever thought it's you that's boring?
Who the hell are you?
I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho

Bio-Force
The biomass is made up of sheaths:
Skin, muscles, nerves, blood, bone, morrow.
The bio-energy consists of layers:
Senses, mind, intellect, conscious,
Subconscious and unconscious.
The biomass and the bio-energy
Are under the operation of bio-force,
Which is a string linking all organisms.

Drain My Brain
Unwind my mind oh baby drain my brain
Unscrew my head take a part of my heart
Scrape away the pain and start all over again
I tell you baby I don't understand just how you can make love to me
While you're lookin' at the picture of another man
You got me talkin' to my elbow climbin' up the wall
First you tell me you despise me then you say you idolize me
Then you tell me you can't use me at all
Unwind my mind...
[ guitar ]
Unwind my mind...
I tell you baby I just can't go on
The hung up way that we're livin' while I'm doin' all the givin'
You keep on callin' me John
First you messin' with Charlie and then you jivin' with Jim
And I know you need a father but I really can't bother
Bein' all those other guys plus him
Unwind my mind...
Unwind my mind settle my spine yeah unroll my soul yeah

Network Nightmare
(Music: DirkschneiderKaufmann - Words: DirkschneiderKaufmann)
You're gonna drown out
While you're within the net
A megatronic murder
Upon the world wide web
My mind is "read all memory"
Your access is denied
A massive infestation
Infected RAM inside
I smile - while I'm infecting your veins
My style - I'm Dr. No I'm delivering the blow
I'm your network nightmare
I'm your network nightmare
I'll powersurge the virus
Directly to your brains
A gigabotic meltdown
Manic - cold - insane
I activate the relay
The master of the code
Expect hard driven lessons
All systems overload
[Bridge]
[Chorus]

Cycle Of Despair
Don't let your eyes close
Don't let the light dim
Don't let your wounds heal
Don't try and stop the end
Take another hit
Have another shot
Take another swing
Man, it's getting hot
Feed the demon once again
Stability in continuity
No reason to hold back now
You know you cannot beat me
Just one more turn
In this cycle of despair
I am with you at every turn
Where you are; there I am
My wind tears the clothes from your back
My breath sucks out your soul
Around that corner there is no return
Your heart will soon be black as coal
Try to hold onto the good
While I scribble it out
Another unholy union
That is what it's all about
Feed the demon once again
Hit her again for me
No reason to hold back now
You have now become mo
Just one more turn
In this cycle of despair
Look in the mirror, friend
Where you are; there I am

Sad thoughts
sad thoughts
occupies my mind
filled with emptiness
loneliness
and self doubt
when will it stop?
will it ever end?
sad thoughts
kept tearing me inside
im now broken into pieces
with these visions in my mind
when will it stop?
will it ever end?
sad thoughts
stop hurting me now
its your memory
that haunts me every night
when will it stop?
will it ever end?

Cripple Creek
1: well I married a wife in the month of june,
Married her up by the light of the moon.
We live down on cripple creek.
Weve been there about a week.
Chorus: Im a-goin down to cripple creek, Im goin on a run.
Goin down to cripple creek to have some fun.
Goin down to cripple creek, Im goin on a run.
Goin down to cripple creek to have some fun.
2: now cripple creek girls about half-grown,
Jump on a man like a dog on a bone.
Roll my pants up to my knees,
Cross on cripple creek a-when I please.
Chorus: Im a-goin down to cripple creek, Im goin on a run,
Goin down to cripple creek to have some fun.
Goin down to cripple creek, Im goin on a run.
Goin down to cripple creek to have some fun.

Im a-goin to cripple creek to have some fun.

The Law
The sun may be clouded, yet ever the sun
Will sweep on its course till the cycle is run.
And when onto chaos the systems are hurled,
Again shall the Builder reshape a new world.
Your path may be clouded, uncertain your goal;
Move on, for the orbit is fixed for your soul.
And though it may lead into darkness of night,
The torch of the Builder shall give you new light.
You were, and you will be: know this while you are,
Your spirit has travelled both long and afar.
It came from the Source, to the Source it returns;
The spark that was lighted, eternally burns.
It slept in the jewel, it leaped in the wave,
It roamed in the forest, it rose in the grave,
It took on strange garbs for long eons of years,
And now in the soul of yourself it appears.
From body to body your spirit speeds on;
It seeks a new form when the old one is gone;
And the form that it finds is the fabric you wrought
On the loom of the mind, with the fibre of thought.
As dew is drawn upward, in rain to descend,
Your thoughts drift away and in destiny blend.
You cannot escape them; or petty, or great,
Or evil, or noble, they fashion your fate.
Somewhere on some planet, sometime and somehow,
Your life will reflect all the thoughts of your now.
The law is unerring; no blood can atone;
The structure you rear you must live it alone.
From cycle to cycle, through time and through space,
Your lives with your longings will ever keep pace.
And all that you ask for, and all you desire,
Must come at your bidding, as flames out of fire.
Once list to that voice and all tumult is done,
Your life is the life of the Infinite One’
In the hurrying race you are conscious of pause,
With love for the purpose and love for the cause.
You are your own devil, you are your own God,
You fashioned the paths that your footsteps have trod;
And no one can save you from error or sin,
Until you shall hark to the spirit within.

Rainbows
Every life is filled with rainbows,
some not readily to be seen
but if you follow your heart
the one you want will be clear.
You’ll cross that rainbow to your goal
and find your pot of gold there.
The crossing may seem elusive
like the shadows in a dream
but if you keep going,
the end will eventually appear.
You’ll find that pot of gold
that which your heart desires
so long as you keep your goal in mind.

All That Really Matters
It does not matter who you are
your choices are up to you
whether you chose to marry or not
the choice is yours to make.
I never condemn anyone
for the choices they have made
so long as they are happy
that is all that really counts.

Dont tell me to snap out of it
Dont tell me to snap out of it
Why must you Tell me this?
The same thing day in day out.
Just snap out of it.
Its easier said than done.
When one has been in such
Emotional pain.
Lost in their fears
Not noing which way to go.
Im so very low
And all you can say is
Just snap out of it
Dont be stupid.
Why must you be so blind?
Its not so easy to do
Just snap out of it.
Open your eyes
Stop being iggnorant.
I cant simpily
Just snap out of it.

Get It? I Hope You Do
Oh...
I am going to give you what I've got.
Whether my choices made,
Are acceptable or not.
Remember this...
I am not here to please the whims,
Of your friends...
Parents, co-workers or other associates.
We are here TOGETHER.
That's all that is important to me.
You want to stretch that importance,
To include other people?
For you from your point of view,
May be a possiblility.
But from where my eyeballs sit...
None of that nonsense will cloud my mind.
Get it?
I hope you do.

0340 Leaping from the psychiatrist's couch
They warned me that deafness
would turn me in on myself,
make me suspicious and sour...
but since my psycho called me
'a bunch of new roses' today
I feel just great. There's nothing like
a compliment from an expert
to cure depression. What a poetic mind!
