Prelude 02:24
2.
I have seen my dream that they call hallucination, I have glimpsed my hopes far beyond the horizon. Now it shares my thoughts and breathes my air in, As it stops me running from a misty vision. It takes over and engulfs all I become this formless entity. I have climbed the peak to seek new sensation, Can't retrace my steps, trapped in my own creation. Travelled in time, can't think how I used to, Less confused than then yet more questions to answer. In day dreams In dark dreams In dreamsleep.
3.
I'll take you by the hand and make you one And leave you by the river when I'm done And walk across the water to the sun... Two Gods... Bet on two Gods I'm naked and I'm hungry in my room I'm tearing arms from deities for fun This hell is like a holiday, with guns... Two Gods Bet on two Gods I'll bring a little magic to your room And pass to the assassin who has none He's taking out the tyrant, for his son Two Gods Bet on two Gods Two Gods Are better than one...
4.
Three blind beggars, how they run Picking up girls and books and guns Three blind, three blind Six (sick) citizens, how they click Burning our words with stones and sticks Six sick, six sick Genetic, hosetic, generic, innocents Genetic, kinetic, cosmetic, citizen Five live devils, ooh, they`re slick Picking up dirt and rhetoric Five live, five live Two bored (f)ello(w)s, how they fuck Spitting up blood (and tar for luck) Too bored, too bored Cosmetic, hosetic, generic, innocents Cosmetic, kinetic, endemic, citizen Four man-eaters, how they bite Picking up writs and sharpening knives For man, for man Nine assasins, how they crack Opening heads and turning our backs Nine-nine, nine, nine-nine Cosmetic, hosetic, generic, innocents Genetic, kinetic, cosmetic, citizen Cosmetic, hosetic, generic, innocents Genetic, kinetic, cosmetic, citizen
