Lieder
1: Hippocratic Oath
Lyrics
I crave your blood
Did you need a sign?
I just want more
Alien life
Let it be mine
Let symptoms come to the fore
Corrupted state
The fever swells
I’m getting close
It feels morose
I need another dose
It will light my cells on fire
Claw out my beating desires
Syringe sears like burning fire
Show me my wreckage
Craft a crime scene to sell to a crowd
Such body horror will sell out
He gazes terrified and still
As I complete his will
Ethics disregarded, push the plunger down
Careful not to push him out
That’s not what this is about
Get to keep a clean gown
The camera views a mirror and I focus
I must reach inside
I must dissect
Where do I go when all is said and done?
Show me my paralysis
Fill my veins with putrid rot
Make my flesh fray apart
Turn my eyes to glass
As it chews a hole in my gut
Tunnelling through my consciousness
I can finally unearth beneath
My ears are drained
Barrelling through empty boxes
I’ll know it when I see it
Need to access, need to focus
Practice scorched Earth
On every cell
I’ll sacrifice the altar too
He gazes terrified and still
As I complete his will
Ethics disregarded, push the plunger down
Careful not to push him out
That’s not what this is about
Get to keep a clean gown
It gives
Underneath it lives
It breathes
Beneath it seethes
I go
So low
His eyes seem ready to kill
I have completed his will
Gloves come off, their purpose bitter irony
All the more reason for doubt
Now that the injection is out
It’s just his body and him
2: Cautery
Lyrics
I saw the wreck today
Wasn’t eager to return
My journey feels like it
Lags behind me
I never heard lightning strike
I never saw fire catch
Even hindsight’s not 2020
Their spirits blacken my lungs
My trial of disease
Trails this destruction
Attempts to appease
Judgment comes to release
And rebuild my construction
Boxes pile up with no end
A tower that reaches up for a mile
On memories I depend
But they all begin to blend
Trying to focus
Can’t access my file
I follow the smouldering road
The heat keeps my feet in motion
And my mind is firing at this enigma
How can I lay this crime to rest?
How can I see my perspective
When my mind’s eye is blind?
Arriving at the edge of this world
And the heat dissipates
This is as far as he could flee
He’s frightened and concerned
Now I’ll capture this conundrum
Finally the lens can focus
He’s looking back at me
His eyes seem so familiar
My trial of disease
Trails this destruction
Attempts to appease
Judgment comes to release
And rebuild my construction
Boxes pile up with no end
A tower that reaches up for a mile
On memories I depend
But they all begin to blend
My world begins to mend
Erase
Arise
This is my reprise
3: Lucid
4: Ivory Shoulder
Lyrics
I’ve fallen over the edge
The warmth long gone, replaced with steel
Consciousness opens my eyes and I see
Before the burnt altar I kneel
Heart and home seen turned to stone
Lost connection under a metal dome
My purpose has corroded and the mind imploded
Trying to access, the file is encoded
A slave to the grind of flesh and mind
Forgot the design was all mine
Relentless planning and endless scanning
Until the code reaches the final line
A rude awakening to all this power
I’m peering down from my tower into the fog
Can I get it to clear?
Technological jamais vu
Clawing through a forest of wires and cables
I’m crawling out of this Earth and up
I’m back, have I turned the tables?
This is like an out-of-body experience
I count my blessings and my fingers as well
I have to reacquaint myself with this newfound shell
To see how much survived this hell
My old mission has been discarded
Life is a gift that keeps on living
My senses keep getting bombarded
But I can make out the parting clouds
A rude awakening to all this power
I’m peering down from my tower into the fog
Can I get it to clear?
A rude awakening to all this power
I’m peering down from my tower into the fog
Can I get it to clear? Can I drain this bog?
A rude awakening to all this power
I’m peering down from my tower into the fog
Can I get it to clear? Can I drain this bog?
5: The Way to Sea
Lyrics
Payment is due
For I have seen
Beauty deep within
Planted crosses in the holes
Pure intimidation
Heavy pockets now ensure me
Final admiration
I’m ready
Red eyes converge on me as I finally slip into darkness
I am weightless
Voracious roar
Of excitement and power
Now the spacious soar
And they will watch the light disappear
Push myself away
Never end the day
Your sentence shrinks to a final stop
Revolution pulling still
Just push this weight away
Rocking boat the final tilt
Chains rattle as it falls
Wondering what else to do
Then the chain pulls tight
Blue greets cold defeat
No light or sound has joined but words now come to me
I never had to ask the way to sea
No light or sound has joined but words now come to me
I never had to ask the way to sea
I try to soar
Feels like falling forever
Does it need more?
Were the conditions ever met
Nails filled with dirt
Never was hurt
Not like I was shown
Settle into my new home
Just signs of the last inhabitant
Is it you or is it this land?
You planted the first seed and in this vacuum it blooms
Now these powers just deny me nothing but the end to my exile
Take me back
Take me
No light or sound has joined but words now come to me
I never had to ask the way to sea
No light or sound has joined but words now come to me
I never had to ask the way to sea
No light or sound has joined but words now come to me
I never had to ask the way to sea
No light or sound has joined but words now come to me
I never had to ask the way to sea
