Between The Buried And Me

The great misdirect
The great misdirect
bbcode
Mirrors
Obfuscation
Disease, injury, madness
Fossil genera - a feed from cloud mountain
Desert of song
Swim to the moon
Mirrors
Everything's a novelty
Everyone grows but me

Close one eye
Step to the side
Everyone grows but me

Everyone's in fragments
Close one eye
Step to the side

Obfuscation
From the simple idea of Change Blindness, our minds are not as they seem.
An entire existence revolving around what we can't acknowledge.
A brain function we'll never admit as defeat....
a constant determination to find truths...to find reason...to find comfort.
An unspoken religion in being the ALL-DOMINANT...This is what we call a brain.

This step will allow the universe to run it's course. We have a short ticket and a lot of it is in hiding...so lets take in what we can for now. Just like here on Earth(a notion we do comprehend)
Hide what "others" can't understand. The universe is the biggest threat...
overachiever that commands attention. Brute force of hysterical reasoning...
There will always be a Marfa.

Close one eye.Step to the side.

As humans we could never be content with knowing all, yet we can't be content with the fact that our brains will never know. A mental surgery...
a never ending journey...a technological drawback. Pushing us further from our natural minds.
Even things created by other humans should be considered in the experiment of an entire species understanding. A magicians pure joy...A mind bend for the common folk...Follow the straight line...(A full house watching what we can't see) The ultimate deceiver...

Close one eye. Step to the side.

We will ALWAYS be part of the great misdirect...stepping in and stepping out.
We will ALWAYS be part of the great misdirect...Mirrors and Obfuscation.

Disease, injury, madness
Don't think.
Don't speak.
I will do this for you.
Every natural thought or feeling you've ever had will change tonight.
Don't think.
Don't speak.
I will do this for you.
Trust the pedastal,
for now we become a higher being.

I am your new mind.
I am your new you.
I am your new sin.
I am your new lust.
I am for you now.

Control...
and collapse...
collide.

A letter plagued by a twisted word.
Slave.
You will become mine,
for there are no more options.
There will not be a sweet consolation...
This is what is supposed to happen.
A predetermined destiny
put in motion by my stronger power.

YOU are ME.

Child:
I sit on this dirty floor.
A weak mind for a cause.
A cause I do not know.
Don't know what to live for.
A compliment I've never heard.
A comfort I've never felt...
it's here, even though
it won't last for long.

Man:
Sit down.
Stand up please.
Lay down...
drink this please.
You'll be in peace soon.
A tribe within itself...
A vision I will display...
to blind the caring.
I have regrets.

A tribe within itself...
A vision I will display...
to blind the caring.

Too late...

I am a cult by definition.
I am a friend by first impression.
My task: to recycle this earth.
To not repeat human history...
Start from scratch...
rid every sound.
Deconstruct... deconstruct all.

I've bid every method into the hands of my employees.
(I am a cult by definition.
I am a scientist by default.)
I have saved you.
Now you will follow my journey...
my destiny.
Tonight's your death
Resurrect my new you.

I am a cult by definition.
I will end this human world.
This world is shit and I have proved that with my followers.
Fuck humanity, end life.
You are now dead, and I soon will be.
Disease, injury, madness.

Fossil genera - a feed from cloud mountain
Beyond the satellites:
Sweet candy populous... a worry free entrance into the world's history
Never underestimate... never think beyond their thoughts.
The satellites have been tapped and Cloud Mountain will carry on the commands of our ancestors

Indeed we work from here. We have for centuries... hearing every breath... watching every disease
(You must accept this truth)

Below the satellites:
The leaders are driving to the farthest retreat. Sit back, relax, enjoy the ride.
They have been speaking for years.
Every night while you're asleep they have been discussing what the future holds for us all.
The outer space takeover. Worlds collide in a dreary pre-determined idea brought by our fellow night owls.
Their stories have been mocked... their ideas have been crushed... but after last night they control every idea we think from here on out.

A GOVERNMENT OVERTHROWN...

We have come to tell you all that we could have prepared for this.

The night owls speak overhead:
The apocalypse (at least our apocalypse) will happen sooner than we think
if we don't read the journals our station has prepared for you all.
We call ourselves the "night owls". We've roamed the earth for years and kept your world afloat.
We've made it so you stay comfortable in your precious homes.
While you sleep, we discuss. Discuss our future... your future.
Our journals give detailed instructions on the machines and weapons we must build.
These are weapons that none of you would even begin to think could harm the outside world...
Everything you know is false... your first instinct is now your last.
Like I've said before... we have been discussing and planning this for decades. (Trust is essential)
We don't have time to explain everything, but just know that everything will soon change.

Trust us and we will all be safe. We are the new government.

Before the satellites:
In simple times we must take control.
With simple skies we create... more sky.

A simple land we must change... for man... is god.

How fast we grow...

We must move on.

Desert of song
The Radios stopped tuning.
This Static is forbidden.
The chords quit strumming...
But we found our new home.

It will rain (falls so slow)
It will rain down here.

The drums quit thumping.
These tones are forbidden.
The throat can't start singing...
The scarecrow is watching.

It will rain (falls so slow)
It will rain down here.

Here, we're awake in the desert of song.
The silence is broken.
Here, we're awake and the silence is broken.
Silence is broken.
Silence is broken.
Here... we... sing...
Sing with the fear.

Fear: the control tower.
The new sun comes by the hour.
Ghosts slowly disappear in the fog...
Silence: the suffering.
We've built back the age-old sound of song.
Here... we... sing...
Sing with the fear.

Here, we're awake in the desert of song.
The silence is broken.
Here, we're awake and the silence is broken.
Silence is broken.
Silence is broken.
Here... we... sing...
Sing with the fear.

Swim to the moon
It's been a long night away from it all
The grabbing authority of my peers
The rusty cage that never seems to open
When can I escape?
When can I swim to the moon?
I've heard this expression my entire life
Never realized how peaceful a statement it is
All alone on the worlds waters
Here I am
The sun's slowly drifting past the edge of the world (can't blame our ancestors)
I'm the loneliest boat on this entire body of water
Rest will not give my awakening purpose
This is why I have come here in the first place
A peace I have never felt
A life I did not want to live
I will awake through sleep
The drifting drifter
Look into the picture
(The Foreshadowing)
No more panic
No more regret
No more hoping for a new mess
Slide into the water
Become one with the sea
Life seems so much smaller
Swim to the moon
I awake with a cool breeze blowing through my dirty hair
Rested
Stable
A first
A caffeine junkie's longest wish: peace and quiet
No wake-ups
No expectations
This "as seen on TV" anchor is just another lie I guess
Hoping for something that's not there
Filling a void that I can't quite put my finger on
This loneliness I always seek
I'm in the middle of black water
No sign of human life in any direction
The most peaceful event of my life seems to have typically turned into a struggle
I'm in the middle of black water
No sign of human life
Panic takes over my body
I have indeed floated due to a non-reversible decision to flee
Just for a day I told myself...
My survival skills were lost years ago
Here I am: no food, no clean water, and this extremely embarrassing attempt at a "get away outfit"
This is an inevitable death
Slide into the water
Become one with the sea
Life seems so much smaller
Swim to the moon
Look into the picture
(Worry leaves my body)
This is what I lived to be
This very moment is the first time in my life that I've felt pure joy
Slide into the water
Become one with the sea
Life seems so much smaller
Swim to the moon
