5. The Impassecopedum (14:16)
"You were never truly out of the desert's reach. Its restless, dried nails dug deep into the ocean trenches lining its shores. They were as an amoeba would be, if traveling from the fingernail to the ear.
The amoeba summoned fire, would mimic the sun overhead. With this signal the goats began to convene. One by one, over the horizon they came – First two, then four, then six, and finally, eight of the horned creatures arrived."
The calm sunlight whispers
The horns come in numbers
As we wait in frigid desert sweats
The goats, the goat knows
Now we approach with armed, wary eyes
And bated breath, what could they want from me (from us)?
They shift, the herd, their minds coalesce into one
(Knowing us, knowing all, knowing what, knowing why)
Octagram arise in the sky
Humanity's despair alive
But would you stay far away
From this place of merciless space?
Would you smile in awe so bright
Before the sum of mankind's disgrace?
My arms are damaged from holding you up
I'm so tired of caring for you
But if this burden revolves, I'll care for you all
‘Til the end, it's true
(You know it's true)
I'm not one known to trifle with your trivialities
No, I have come here to settle for impatient miseries
Our antiquities predate histories
(He's not one, he's not one
Get away from this space)
Oh, girl, your tears mean the world to me
If you're looking for a pretty good time
You haven't found it yet
An answer to the meaning of life?
Oh, please
You disturb my rest (His rest)
Just like all the rest (The rest)
Before I turn that smile inside out
Tell me, what's this all about?
"Guardian of the north
Soul of many in one
Beseech us with your beauty
As penance for how far we've come"
Pretty (so pretty)
A little sadness goes a long way
In the city (in the city)
Look how far you've come to be an other, or a no one
But I've never felt so alive before you, singing and dancing
Oh, put that boy up on a screen and see what he would scream
The shapes he makes, the ways he squirms is worth it, wouldn't you agree?
You can't talk shit if a friend don't lie
(A friend don't lie?) A friend don't lie
You can't talk shit if a friend don't lie
Well, everybody lies
They call you out, blind, withholding mercy
My children abhorred, decadence be done for
The dead smile only in rain (In pain!)
The heart that you lack, an emotionless art attack
From a burdened and burgeoning son
Keep on your feet, ‘cause no matter how sweet
You always will fall for that one
When you're done, I'll see you in the battle for the sun
(Now this is the part where things started to get...weird)
Don't cross the line; We are of fearful kind
I never was a boastful god
But don't you try your luck
Consider yourselves the privileged, the honoured, making history
To watch me destroy it and not give a
Funny you should ask (Haha!)
For penance from the desert plain
I cradle the thoughts of a whole species
Their vanity insane
Don't cross the line, or enter the realm of all things divine
Where the thoughts are all
Mine, mine, mine, mine!
Creature from the north on high
Let us take you higher still
We have friends in higher places
Let's go have a couple of drinks, we got the bill
May your souls now tremble, my friends
For eternity is never afraid
An affront to the glory of our earthly story
She outshines us all in her way (every day)
She follows me home, yet I made her lead me
And leave me for her sister night
May the light of her fire consume myself, the liar
She remains, wholly and truly, my guiding light
There's no love in this temple
But there's now joy in this heart, his heart
It's useless to deny it
But how can I survive this?
Ahhh - We are undone
So long, goodbye
We had some fun (a whole lotta fun)
But now it's time to go
We wish you the best (and all the rest)
It's just been nice to see how you've grown
But still, I know
Closer now than I've ever felt
Bright eyes burn
Man taught gods to learn to love
To save your world
Plot the course we will travel on, swiftly
May her stars guide the way
Hold your loved ones close, let your stories grow
It could save your world, world
Someday, some way, somehow
I will shine with the sun
