could he be the one? maybe
but would he be ours to control?
kwizatz haderach!
you dared create the supreme being?
I tell you for the father nothing
abomination!
you thought only of his desire
we may lose both bloodlines now
well I remember your gom jabbar
now surely you'll remember mine
kwizatz haderach!
I sense your teachings in him
my greatest student, my greatest disappointment
abomination!
you vowed never to regret your choice
you'll pay for your own mistakes
ninety generations of Bene Gesserit
a living, breathing, super weapon!
this weapon, I am!
I will never be yours to control!

everything was beautiful
nothing hurt, and so it goes
become unstuck in time
revenge is the sweetest thing in life
all this happened, more or less, all moments
past and present, always have existed
always will exist
if you think death is a terrible thing
then you have not understood a word I've said
how nice, to feel nothing
and still get credit for being alive
all this happened, more or less, all moments
past and present, always have existed
always will exist
why you? why us? for that matter?
because this moment simply is
trapped in the amber of this moment
there is no why
there is no why!
I have this disease late at night
involving alcohol and the telephone
I can almost smell his breath
mustard gas and roses

Nostromo

awoken out of deep sleep
careering to dead planet
distress beacon calls us
LV-426
recover lifeform
priority one
crew expendable
Nostromo
our tomb!
Nostromo
our doom!
into the darkness he goes
down with his ship, claimed
fire will not save you
Brett gone, no trace
the clink of chains
blood on the floor
one less, one more
Nostromo
our tomb!
Nostromo
our doom!

it took them all
it took them all
then there was one

The Sprawl
06:06
|
|||
|
like city lights, receding
an infinite complexity
kaleidoscope of data
hands clawed, as one
coiled with the pain
dreams come upon me
cry for the Sprawl
the matrix in my dreams
neon arrays cut through
the colourless dead void
where logic unfolds
bellow out, raging
reach for the light
what cannot be there
can never be there
long strange road home
cannot be
a console cowboy
I offer you
this
I cannot see them
how I wish I was
information every flows
see him in the distance
absorbed into the new form
I am now all of you
what he imagines, you see
tuned to a dead channel

unaware of the peril
ignorant of the doom
watching from the distance
the world turns, unfolds
he waits
patiently watches
a silent menace
a silent evil
this town, unassuming
one among many
yet behind the mask
the horror awaits
hollow
forever hollow
behind a hatred
immense and endless
run far, fast as you can!
footsteps behind relentless
across an empty street
the shape approaches!
and with him came the crows
the blade gleam off moonlight
cold as stone from the grave
fear spreads like fingers

Directive IV

I am the future of law enforcement
somewhere out there, there is a crime happening
dead or alive, you are coming with me
looking for me? your move! think it over creep!
classified!
directive iv!
I know you but you're dead you're dead we killed you!
you started this now I gotta finish it
people want paradise they will have it
falling decaying symbol of corruption
classified!
directive iv!
where is Clarence?
Clarence Boddicker
Dick Jones!
wanted for murder!
Dick Jones!

the police
the jury
executioners
the judges
you are not the law
I am the law!
never break the law
I am the law!
those who walk
the lonely path
chosen of
halls of justice
you are not the law
I am the law!
never break the law
I am the law!
you betrayed the law
I am the law
do not mistake the law
I am the law!
sometimes I think we will all die like Alvin
maybe, but in my book
that is the way to go
in defense of the law
an irradiated wasteland
eight hundred million living in the ruin
convulsing, choking
breaking under it's own weight
the crime is life!
The punishment is death!

The Great Wave
06:32
|

|
alone with these walls
familiar, yet different
the clock grinds on
hours become minutes
I search for a place
where I remember
what it was to be myself
we build a fire
in the flames, our fears
the great wave is coming
what was, is no more
the ink continues to spill
filling these pages
the course changes
head into the unknown
with a full heart and a clear mind
we build a fire
in the flames, our fears
a fire in the sky
cannot, dare not
this land is not ours
it swells to claim us
things are not what they seem, they never are
the door behind is forever closed
no path to walk, no trail to follow
only what lies ahead
a cooling soothing dark
we sell ourselves to see the light
swim toward, frantic strokes
gasping lungfuls of the void
