Minimum Rage
That which shall be built shall be built.
That which shall be torn
shall be torn asunder.
Listen to yourself, to the mantrasong.
This will tear it apart.
This will meld it together
This will tear it apart
This will mold it together.
Pity not the fallen, this is not their song.
We are not of them, this is our song.
That which shall be built shall be built.
That which shall be torn
shall be torn asunder.
Listen to yourself, to the mantrasong.
This will tear it apart.
This will meld it together
This will tear it apart
This will mold it together.
And you tell yourself that they exist
and the world has meaning. And you
tell yourself that they exist.
And you tell yourself that they exist
and the world has meaning. And you
tell yourself that they exist.
And you tell yourself that they exist
and the world has meaning. And you
tell yourself that they exist.
And you tell yourself that they exist
and the world has meaning. And you
tell yourself that they exist.
And you tell yourself that they exist
and the world has meaning. And you
tell, tell yourself.

Gotta keep ahead of the game
Keep ahead of the wind
Keep moving in all directions
Keep ahead of the game.
Square the velocity
Escape the gravity well
Escape velocity
Keep ahead of the game
Solar wind behind me
Far behind me
Keep ahead of the wind
Far behind me
Chased by the hunted
Keep ahead of the game
Chased by the hunted
Keep ahead of the game
Escape the wind
Escape the game
Keep ahead

Keep ahead of the game
Keep ahead of the game
Chased by the hunted
Keep ahead of the game

2 Year Old Leaf; $5 Kief
2 Year Old Leaf; $5 Kief
Could get you life in OK
Could lose your job anywhere else
in this dumbfuck nation.
But 'One man's venom is another man's nectar.’*
And I’m
standing there
like a
big white
riverbird
with its
mouth
hanging
wide open
It’s hard to take a good bite out of this
I know too much to have teeth
that far back
chronia, -chrone,
1 suffix meaning "(condition of) processes with respect to time"
That could have been me
Oh yeah, another dead artist
Buried deep between all those
Pretty mounds
There might have been a blurb in the
Weekly press, a couple of lines, oh yeah,
bound to runoff into those
ugly lakes
bound to runoff into those
ugly lakes
bound to runoff into those
ugly lakes
bound to runoff into those
ugly lakes

Words
New notes to myself
It don’t matter
I’m just sitting here
Drinking
and thinking
Am I bound
or just in a bind
How ‘bout you?
Sick little clowns
That’s what I find
How ‘bout you?
I’m just sittin’ here
drinking
and thinking
All these pretty notes to myself
All these pretty words
Am I bound
or just in a bind
How ‘bout you?
Sick little clowns
That’s what I find
How ‘bout you?
All these pretty words
All these pretty words
Am I bound
or just in a bind
How ‘bout you?
Sick little clowns
That’s what I find
How ‘bout you?
Am I bound
or just in a bind
How ‘bout you?
Sick little clowns
That’s what I find
How ‘bout you?
Am I bound
or just in bind
How ‘bout you?
Sick little clowns
That’s what I find
How ‘bout you?

Just Click On The Minotaur
You know you want to
Forget the way you know
The way you came here
To bow before no one
No one before you
To witness the beginning
To pick up the thread
Take hold of the only thing
that you understand
You know you want to
Forget the way you know
And yes, it’s the only thing
that you understand
And it’s not time yet to
Forget the way you know
To pick up the thread
To witness the beginning
No one before you
To bow before no one
The way you came here
Forget the way you know
You know you want to
