Welcome To The Future
03:53

Highways are slow
At a walking pace we go
The few lights the sun can
Barely bring are filtered by the smog
Trucks are long long caravans
Of old, tired, ill elephants
Queuing whatever happens
CHORUS
Do you hear me?
Hey you robot!
(hey little friend)
Once we used to spend a half life
Sleeping in a bed, lying
Now in fucking cars we spend that time...
Wakeful for crickets during engines' nights
Stuck in the traffic, in the middle of our minds
CHORUS
...
Living in the future doesn't make sense
We already have it under our heads
Why we searching for some aliens?
We already have a beautiful land, a nature to defend
CHORUS
...
I knew it, you're not just a machine
I knew it, there may still be humanity

The wind blew to slam the door
And uproot the trees
But not his car
That he hides in
The long await for
The aid of clouds over the streets
Covering details
Everyone could be a victim
CHORUS
Don't turn away, just because of the day
Don't turn away...
Don't turn away, even if you're afraid
Soon it's night
And inside all the people sleep
A good smell
Of rain fallen hard on grassy fields
Those awake
In the later hours like this
Maybe the brave
Haven't heard much of him
CHORUS
...
Don't run away please I need your embrace
Don't turn away...
Don't run away, even if you're afraid
Not watched by the dark, as hollow as his car
But he can touch the air in one's heart
CHORUS
...

Youphoric?!

Do a little bit of jam with it and put it all away in a jar, dreaming of the better days
Wish you saw the lips of the goddess moving like your sexy tamer tonight
At times we gotta show we are prepared to take a cake straight to our face...anyway
For the lucky one satisfied there is another million pushed back in pain
CHORUS
Euphoria has a price...never the same
That you've felt more than twice and the taste gets cool!
Pick up a little bit of sun and put it away in a mirror, dreaming of the shiny days
Imagine a heart, a place for your beloved...who already made a raid on it
CHORUS
Euphoria has a price today
If you meet somebody nice, that's good for you...
Euphoria has a price always
But for now you can smile, somebody paid for you
Let's put cucumbers on our eyes and make funny grimaces
The most genuine way of being shameless
Absolutely no tickets to the carnival...
CHORUS
...
Let's not buy it all...it may not work

My Kite
04:32
|
|||
|
You screamed my name, exploding rays of pleasure around a sudden embrace
All I was able to say was “this is my kite”
Then a headache, struggle of broken sobs against a painful shame
All I was able to say was “just keep my kite”
Above...not across
CHORUS
The ocean
The ocean
The ocean wide
The ocean
You don't say my name, echoing alone through the canyons as far as the windy bay
All I was able to say was “don't let go of my kite”
'Cause of the strong drafts...across...across
CHORUS
The ocean, all
The ocean
The ocean wide
The ocean
I would have found the way to part the tides and run before it's closed
From underwater I'd be darting back, spreading brightness on the ocean wide...

Amusement Park
04:38
|

|
Jokey tunes lower along this freaky beach
To dismantle the attractions
Dispersed with the crowd, forgotten the key
Or stolen, the gate chained and locked
Connection is sweet syntony, imperfect harmonious mutual, the deepest melody
Transmission in sync needy of punctuality to prove the truth through apparent sincerity
Neglected boyfriend on the ferris wheel
Abandoned, disillusioned
Resigned, he isn't exactly about to kneel
And go below, wanna behold
CHORUS
Arrived, the time, lonely with yourself more and more fragile
Misunderstand me, then you'll regret me
49 slowly wiped tears down to your chest forcing to realize
a part is missing, his pure kisses...innocent kisses
Gone lost something called simplicity
You lost it, you lost that
Ability to notice shades of intimacy
The lens for Romanticism...
Science of passion, discrepancies
Based on a spark, inflaming a star
CHORUS
...
At midnight the spotlights watched me under, suffocate but survive
You'd rather hurt me and be selfish (and egocentric)
Hypnotized by those lies so repressed even for my tender eyes
Romantic teacher of how love used to be
Arrived, the time, lonely with yourself more and more fragile
Misunderstand me means a refusal to me

Tourist Of An Apocalypse
06:18
|
|||
|
Nothing remains of the sun
Except cars' headlights
Guard duty at the huts
Skinny dogs at the feet of empty slides
Maybe it's our purpose
Or unconscious will
To come out and drown sadness
Into someone else's desolate misery
CHORUS
I'm done traveling by now
Take my blood, take this camera
It's fair that I should fall with a thud
Onto the rocks...
The photo we'll leave will be
Of two kids on a bicycle
Who're speeding past the mountain,
But gonna be swallowed
'Cause so far we've only played
No more than every crime,
Not long ago, it gave way on us
Followed by lives
CHORUS
I'm done traveling by now
Take my blood, take this camera
I won't continue to observe
From the cliff...
I'm done traveling by now
Take my blood, take this camera
It's fair that I should fall with a thud
Me and the rocks together...
Just make sure we save the Earth

Lyrics by BlackLimo
Reflected eyes seem fake
A small deep infinite shade
I let it all go
They say I let it all go
Sooner or later you'll understand what it means
Meanwhile keep on getting carried away
Walking in the middle makes you feel empty
The will might be the key
You must recognize yourself
Nobody will do it on your behalf
CHORUS
I could open new worlds and tear a star away
Looking down on the rest
Instead of being below anchored to the ground
As a protest
You would have been great someday
You would have been the greatest someday
You can't change life
So decide quickly which is your side
Maybe you're nothing
But for sure better than what you've been
Now I choose to try getting my breath back
I'll stare at you, in the end
Walking in the middle makes you feel empty
The will might be the key
You must recognize yourself
Nobody will do it on your behalf
CHORUS

Lyrics by Pojo The Idealist
I see
All around me dyin'
All around me fryin'
I'm just tryin' to enlighten
Cast a flow like Posiden
Use the flow to enliven (build up)
Get my people aspirin' (build up)
New paradigm arisin' (build up)
New paradigm arisin' (build up)
We can see the shift happen changin'
Bringin' more space for laughin' embracin'
Kickin' back this mass degredation
Connectin' today with the facts of the ancients
Makin' a way for the path to creation
Takin' a stand, bringin' a mass illumination
Takin' a look at the one who gave us birth
We get together and save the Earth
It can live without us, but not the inverse
We need the water, the sky and the rich dirt
Whether lampin' in a mansion or a big yurt
You go to Gaia for materials to build first
And though today what prevades is an ill hurt
If you want more you gotta roar until your will's heard
Takin' action full of passion 'til the chains burst
Get together and save the earth
We're the ones who can move to make a difference
Usin' our affinities to lift away the sickness
Everyone will know it when we get there and the bliss hits
Elevate communities and rectify your business
(Ooo) Manifest your wishes
Make a world for your children's children
Shake the curse, disperse this grave hurt
Get together and save the earth
