Saucer Separation

Set on the quest
Put to the test
Looking out in awe
Great unexplored
Galaxy remains
Colossus built to tame
On a brand new ship
Explorers take a step
Keep silent
In this hall full of mutant jurors
A peanut gallery
That cracks and eats themselves
In full disclosure of human ugliness
Plead guilty
Accept sentence here
Compromise is suicide
blinded by foolish pride
Makes us wonder how
how you stay alive
Small minds, occupied
Insist on pain
Nothing ventured, well
nothing gained
Keep Silent
Hall full of mutant jurors
A peanut gallery
That crack and eat themselves
In full disclosure of human ugliness
Plead guilty
Accept sentence here
Forward functions stopped
Signal the following
All languages and frequencies
We surrender
With no terms and no conditions
Its web will not splinter
Trials past
in post-atomic horror
To your feet criminals
multiple grievous crimes
United earth nonsense
Answer for your species with
Irrelevant testimony
Disregarding equity
Sentence to be carried out
Immediately
(Solo: Dustin)
(Solo: Kurt)
Saucer Separation,
On the Battle Bridge
Not the Q’s reign
Colossus built to tame
Saucer Separate!

All claims of conspiracy
Are just expressions of fragility
So mad, won’t open eyes to see
The problems you project on me
Are just proof of your inability
To balance the scales
And justice will prevail
Your criticism fails
Even with all the comforts
You’re still a creature
An animal among us
And what you see as
Disruption
Is only a function
Of your ignorance
Complacent arrogance
Maybe this calamity
Is a sign of fallacy
Will you realize you were wrong
And were never that strong
A flickering light
Does not mean we’re blind
Stand on freedom’s throat
As she dies
Broken contracts
And badly severed ties
All conclusions
There’s no reason
No coalitions
None joined in unity
We took what was beautiful
Or least something hopeful
Its promise in disguise
Consumer, creator
Of illegal harvests
Resistant to your conquest
Decry my dissidence
To compliment
Your complacency
The table is turned,
And the rope has been cut
Investment returned
One thousand fold
Imitation of dedication
An invitation
to the desecration
The very end of hope
This final note
Foolish vote leaves us
Ill-equipped to cope
Murder and lies
Veins are open
Blood flows like bile
Tightly wound
And surely to snap
System crash
Nuclear backlash
Savagery
Proud feeling
Emptiness
Lies appealing
Dream Theater Heavy
At the notion of seeming
To celebrate sabotage
Irony with no advantage
Hold the whip, but cannot crack it
You’re chasing reptiles and helicopters
Inhale the trails,
You claim are a product of blame;
(Product of blame)
The real tragedy
Your Energy
Into nothing becomes
Prefer to fellate
Your smoking guns
You Believe the impossible
There’s no bravery
In denying the plausible
Find the explanation
Etched in your damnation
Cut and runaway
Can’t stand examination
Your own ego blinds you
To the prison that confines you
Built up, around your mind
A space to safely hide
Dream Theater Heavy
Your flawed ideation
All biased extrapolation
Symptomatic of
Forced indoctrination
A chamber of echoes
Won’t take the place of
Truth
Or power
Face it,
You cowards
Suffocating lies
Stuck in never ending night
Till the break of day
Breaks all promises made
Solo - KURT
Proud to be fooled
You signed the order
To pretend you’re free
Bring others to the slaughter
Solo - DUSTIN
Time is up, rethink your views
When liars thrive, progress eschews
No mandate only the rule of fools
Explain yourself, but you will never prove
‘Cause you lack foundational truth
With demons and witches you collude
Fuck your alt-right attitudes
Now it’s time to run
From flawed imagination
Out of many one
the stronger we become
Bring each other in
Make yourself listen
When the money’s gone
Then the war is won
This is your last chance
Or hang from this olive branch

Steeped in the horror
Of such clear reflections
Past regrets
Cowardly actions
Boundaries break
depraved satisfaction
we dismiss
our victim’s reactions
Mirror of shame
Reflects what we’ve made
As we sought
Justice so poorly
Voices silenced
Cut-off by strangulation
Lesson taught
The source desperation
We WALK
Upon The Earth
The Earth
Is Dead
Never, to be
Risen
Forever rotted
We WALK
SOLO - DUSTIN
Now is the time of judgment
Trade nonsense for substance
Or WE lose this race
A Speeding bullet to the face
Pretense
Shattered
Choked out;
Blind to the matter
I hear you;
Hoarse from screaming
Please judge me
Please stop me
Please force me
Please end me
We are a festering death march
Repel each other, broken and bled from the start
Our value reduced to currency
Melting ice, bleaching coral, raising seas
Annihilation pushed into our hearts
It’s how we know that we can’t win out
Counterfactuals cannot account
For the lies which you flaunt
I want to scream,
I want to cry and shout
Voice ignored, feelings wasted
Actions questioned, choices all in doubt
Gun to the head
Boys raised to slaughter
Blood in the streets
Who breeds these monsters
Put down the rope
Try to keep your brother
Think of someone else
If you can even bother
SOLO - KURT
Against safety nets
See the poor flies
Then try to forget
Cut their life line
Ensure their destruction
So angry feast on each other
grow fat Bloody with
Consumption
no stronger
Still a construction
Can’t handle metaphors
Easier to label women as whores
Other victims targeted with ease
So tiny cocks can flap in the breeze
All - of - it -lies
Spiritual suicide
Can - you
Bring back Water
Dignity, justice, power
Due - for -a
New birth
Why torch
The womb first
You stand behind
Imaginary lines
Laid down like shit
Cuz you couldn’t get a grip
Your understanding
A matter of pride
Not even caring
That to you they lied
Your lucky guess
Won’t support the rest
Gloating and observing
Won’t stop the storm from coming
Instead you pretend
Pretend you’re a strong man
Pretend you’re enlightened
Pretend that you’re not frightened
See what’s at stake
Hear the claims you make
So loudly silent
In a sea of violence
Obsession with freedom
Won’t serve as a reason
Truth is a weapon not
a pointless distraction
Truth we have spoken
Fascists must be broken
Your ego can’t be fed
When The EARTH IS DEAD

STABBED STABBED STABBED STABBED STABBED
STABBED THROUGH THE HEEART
Broken toy organ
Forged flame of a life
Gone dark
FACE TO FACE in blinding light
A self-proclaimed God
Speaks of a second chance
Lost in temporal fog
The choice is between immediate death
Or play this fucked up game
I CANNOT ACCEPT
The universe is not
So badly made
Prompted to reflect
Think upon regrets
Redraw the line
Do it right this time
BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK
Back in my Prime
Playing all angles so raw
It should be a crime
Knowledge of events
Avoid the old outcome
Check your arrogance
Just try to run
The choice is between immediate death
Or play this fucked up game
I CANNOT ACCEPT
The universe is not
So badly made
Prompted to reflect
Think upon regrets
Redraw the line
Do it right this time
At the scene
My friends all rely on me
Need to stand up to this threat
Voices raised, tusks, stinking death
PLAY DOM JOT HUMAN?!
SOLO - KURT
SOLO - DUSTIN
WAKE WAKE WAKE WAKE WAKE
Wake up and find
Purpose destroyed, living but hardly alive
Beastly foes can bring
Bring their attack
I LAUGH AT YOU WITH YOUR KNIFE
IN MY FUCKING BACK
The choice is between immediate death
Or play this fucked up game
I CANNOT ACCEPT
The universe is not
So badly made
Prompted to reflect
Think upon regrets
Redraw the line
Do it right this time
BRING ME BACK
Fuck artificial heart attacks
Starfleet are not all alike
This very breath is my garambah

Guided by starlight
Guided by lies
Directionless journey
Through dangerous skies
Forgotten Commandments
Impermanent stare
Disjointed are the fragments
Unbounded, unfair
-And so it goes
-Like we were always told
-Turn skyward
-Years in space cold
Goblin star
Last of our salvation
Goblin star
Sunrise of damnation
Stories on paper
All burn away
Songs of hope and power
All end the same
Kings of the star-land
Masters of no realm
Sorcerers, strange wisdom
All serve the same end
-And so it goes
-Like we were always told
-Turn skyward
-Years in space cold
Goblin star
Last hope of our salvation
Goblin star
Sunrise of our damnation
Quest for The final messiah
Star in space night
Corruption of goblins
Their crisis in sight
Crest final asteroids
Free of the nebulae
Cradle of cold born gods
To live here is to die
-But so it goes
-Like we were always told
-Turn skyward
-Years in space cold
Goblin star
Last of our salvation
Goblin star
Sunrise of damnation
[Intruder Alert!]
Oh no, what is this place?
No home planets, deep in space
Evil minds we must embrace
Poison tech of the goblin race
Took their god, broke it down
Copied it so all year round
They can feast on it’s oozings
Last attempt awake with fusion
-----
We need it to fuel our ship
Maybe too for deep space trips
Goblin home in disarray
They’re boarding us to get away
Don’t wake up the sleeping babe
It will want to annihilate
Behold prophecy made flesh
Putrid, disgusting, nightmares birthed
The slug, Master Slug
Frees itself to strike
Solo - DUSTIN
Bells the only sound space holds
Blaze of red; ancient cold
Leaving bombs in the cargo hold
Clone god is saved
Great goblin deity
Gorging celestial bodies
Bringing insanity
Red interloper…..
Master slug;
No destiny
Gifts an escape
on creatures eight
So we can learn new ways to hate
----
Lesson of this tale
Stars are not fair guidance
Monsters in many forms
Deaf to all our cries
CRIES TO THE GOBLIN STAR!
HO, HO, HO

Awoken from strange ends, the hunger strikes again
Craving precious rock, it will never stop
Strange as it may seem, I must fulfill this need
Kill half to make me whole, the only way I know
Primal command, A song of the damned
Famished and decayed, I scream out for new prey
CREATURE, sight so pleasing
Drawn back into time
Image ripped from my
MIND, and from my past
The feeling brought back
Move towards it so
FAST, now it is gone
We must defend
Before it brings the
END, we cannot allow
This crisis of flesh
Brutal death!!!
Ancient and corrupted
Kill to maintain substance
Forced to conspire
Feed the salt vampire
Explosions and deafness
Proper alien menace
Hunter near extinction
Survival on the brink
If only you could see, see my face
And you would see, see the look of pain
One thousand years, Of gnawing agony
Simple need, cannot explain
Ancient and corrupted
Kill to maintain substance
Forced to conspire
Feed the salt vampire
Savage stalking, creeping death
Need to eat to maintain breath
Explosions and deafness
Proper alien menace
(SOLO - Dustin)
PAST lives
We were so close, now grown apart
Years consumed in the
FIRE
We’ll die on this ship
Interstellar crypt
We must set a trap
(SOLO - Kurt)
TRAP
It’s hunting us down
Can we trap from afar?
It’s attack leaves
Scars
Scars on the faces
It steals our dreams
Bodies embraces
Frantic ravaging
Hunger crippling
Must eat at all cost
This means all hope’s lost
Strange as it might seem
You can’t fulfill this need
For human life behold
Is greater than you know
We’ve no choice left
Deceive, confront, repent
Eat or be killed
Cornered, but still
These monsters crave
To put me in my grave
Though there be some grace
This product of space
Human life, behold
Greater than you know
We’ve no choice left
Deceive, confront, repent
(Solo - JACOB)

We’re bound to stones,
Cast at the birth of time
Millenia drifting
From host to host
This age grants me
No quarter
Weakened with each
Vicious rip
WAKE UP
TOKE UP
DRIFT AWAY AGAIN
Desperation breeds
Determination
And open roads
Left best un-tread
Sanctuary sameness
Repetition, obsolescence
Vacancy, dimensionally
Focal point hypocrisy
What does it matter
Incessant chatter
Chorus
WAKE UP
TOKE UP
DRIFT
AWAY AGAIN
Can’t find my footing
My time is being looted
Listless and drifting
Horrified and crying
Entire fortunes and failures lived
And with each destination
And thoughts of infestation
Solar stowaway
That lives with us always
WAKE UP
TOKE UP
DRIFT
AWAY AGAIN
IOTA DRACONIS THE REZURGENCE.
Dwell in imagined worlds
Draped in all the spoils
Contently wandering
One life, worth squandering
Packed so tightly
Ignition shines brightly
Melt all the slag away
Make it through one more day
SOLO - KURT/DUSTIN/JACOB
This is how to insult the dead
Replaced with something that should never live
Repeated assaults on the soul, crimson
Salt and piss poured in wounds open
Burning reaches up
Soul coughing, mouth sewn shut
Raw stripping at this mind
Blind me, damn you, rip out my eyes
Could use some new direction
Forcing course corrections
Could the power equal our own
Karmic harmony in song
Dwell in an Arcane past
But the Ritual collapsed
IOTA DRACONIS
If we can’t sing,
We won’t last long
IOTA DRACONIS
We won’t make it to the dawn
IOTA DRACONIS
Essence transferred to the weed
IOTA DRACONIS
No sustenance without fertile fields
And with no place to sew
Seeds of wisdom
They cannot grow
IOTA DRACONIS
If the fire burns out
IOTA DRACONIS
We will choke in the drought
IOTA DRACONIS
Fire to the residue
IOTA DRACONIS
But burned corpses will not do
Pausing to hear the moans
For the cause of
Being stoned ..to death
