Chrononaut

You were born with an indigo aura
Your Father took your hand, said you’d be an explorer
Beyond this realm, beyond tomorrow
You would walk the path that others hope to follow
Could you be the one that we need you to be
Are you the man from the Jump Room
Have you come to set us free
Do you bring truth
Truth to our reality
Are you the Chrononaut who would be President
Upon the Pegasus with a turn of the page
Moving through the history books at such a tender age
Sent to advise, never to change
An Angel in appearance making sure that things remain the same
Could you be the one that we need you to be
Are you the man from the Jump Room
Have you come to set us free
Do you bring truth
Truth to our reality
Are you the Chrononaut who would be President

What if I told you that I
I have a plan that could get
The people that are against us
On our side once again.
Not just plicate them but we could
Get them cheerleading I think
We could pull the wool over
Over their eyes.
Tell them whose side they should be on
Tell them who’s right and who is wrong
Get them to back our horse again
Keep them confused, so they won't know foes from friends
Make them feel like the underdog
Create a world where they're marginalised
Get the news to always put them down
sow the seeds of disarray
Drip feed them drops that we create
Tell them that again we could be great
Make them think it's us against the world
Feel pride when the flag's unfurled
Tell them whose side they should be on
Tell them who’s right and who is wrong
Get them to back our horse again
Keep them confused, they won't know foes from friends

The Wolves At The Door
03:51
|

Somewhere round here there is a corpse of a man
A man who told his wife and kid, I am the man who can
But, when push came to shove he kicked that can
So far down the road he just did as he was told
And when they came for his Kid
He should have kept him hid
But he threw his life away
'Cause that’s what everyone else did
Somewhere inside he knows it’s all gone awry
As his life it ebbs away, he hasn't even tried
To his wife and his kid it’s a sham and it's a lie
He’s failed at the one thing he was born to provide
And when they came for his Kid
He should have kept him hid
But he threw his life away
'Cause that’s what everyone else did
We tried to warn them
Researched and showed them
But no-one listened
And we we're shut out of the world
And when they came for his Kid
He should have kept him hid
But he threw his life away
'Cause that’s what everyone else did
He was told by the Government man
He was told by the big business man
He failed at the one thing he was put here for
To protect, to keep safe, keep the wolves from the door

Live in a world of twilight imagining
Marginal to the society
Live on the fringes, content to drift
In your own self-created value system
We have no tradition of Shamanism
We have no tradition for the journey
The journey into these mental worlds
We are terrified of the madness
Fear it for the western mind is
No more than house o f cards
Fear it for the builders know it’s
No more than house of cards
You don’t fit in
You are a problem
You don’t pull your weight
You’re not of equal worth
You are sick
You must be locked up
You’re on a par with the prisoners
You are no different than a lost dog
The Shaman swims in the
Schizophrenic Ocean
For millennia he has drawn upon
Sanctioned technics
You are special
You will cure
You will prophesise
You will guide
You will be drawn out
You will be cared for
Your abilities are central
You will take the most fundamental decisions
There is an impulse to return to what is felt by the body
What is authentic, what is archaic
A desire to return to a magical empowerment of feeling
At the centre is the Shaman
Invoking a world of conscious living mystery
For that is what the world is
The world is not an unsolved problem
For scientists or sociologists
The world is a living mystery
Our birth, our death, our being in the moment
Our culture has killed that
Taken it away from us
We have become consumers of shoddy products, shoddier ideas
There is an impulse to return to what is felt by the body
Self-exploration, empowerment and hope
Hope, for the Human enterprise
Hope, for the Human enterprise

Unfolding The Stone

[The Crying Philosopher]
All flows
Nothing is permanent, all is transient
Man as God’s brother
Higher than Angels it seems
Not fallen but divine
So why is perfection so distant?
If luminous beings then why
Why do we not appear?
Before each other radiant
Radiant in our illumination
All flows, all flows
[The Alchemist]
Alchemy
The redemption of spirit from matter
Meaning that vibrates behind the perception
Fate overcome through magic.
Nigredo
The inevitable dark night of the soul
Chaos as ever, is welcomed
The pre-condition for redemption
Cauda Pavonis
Colours play on the surface
Alchemical hope must be forged
Heavier challenges lie ahead
Albedo
The new beginning is possible
The possible becomes the probable
It becomes inevitable
Miracles can happen
[The Universe]
An engine for production of novelty
Alchemical furnace of being
Coalescing in the moment
Fate overcome through magic
Imagination has power
Boot-strap to higher levels
Depth can be reached in no time at all
If the elevator shaft can be found
The mind conjures miracles from time
Everything is alive
Let the monkeys speak, build fire, bring forth tools
Show commitment and obstacles will be removed
The emergence of life from all that preceded it
As dramatic a miracle as anyone could imagine
The emergence of language from mute bestiality
As dramatic a miracle as anyone could imagine
The emergence of a planet unified by electricity
As dramatic a miracle as anyone could imagine
Macrocosm, microcosm
The world truly is fractal
It is irrational to not be filled
With the fire of consuming hope
[The Peacock’s Tail]
Always have we been in the grip
Of that iridescent strange attracter
The Peacock’s Tail grows daily
Whiter, brilliant, more radiant
We sense it, breaking into our dreams
Breaking into our waking lives
[The End Of History]
We are privileged
We put it all together
Together in one piece
Stand ready at the end of history
Ready to enter the mystery
We will be completed
All flows, all flows
Nothing is permanent, all is transient

Down Caesar

Down Caesar
Barking orders at the world
Down Caesar
Demanding that you be heard
Down Caesar
You’re giving us no choice
Down Caesar
With the loudness of your voice
But I know the reason why
In the darkness I hear you cry
All your noise it hides the tears
Down Caesar
Controlling all you see
Down Caesar
Freedom's just a memory
Down Caesar
With force you push us back
Down Caesar
Empathy you seem to lack
But I know the reason why
In the darkness I hear you cry
All your noise it hides the tears
Just like us you’re full of fear
'Cause you're not in control
There are others that hold you down
You’re just a front
And the people see you as a clown
You’re as scared as us
Just doing what you’re told
They have you in their hands
And every day you feel colder

The Left Handed Priest
03:43
|
|||
The left-handed Priest knew of duty
He was called as the ritual began
Sage was burnt, offers were laid
They hoped to protect this land
The terrible worm had arisen
Bringing chaos from here to the sea
The man of the cloth he seemed bold and showed strength
But he feared they would never be free
He feared they would never be free
Every man and boy they could muster
With sword and cudgel and stone
They rode out to face down the dragon together
But the priest would face him alone
God played no part in this battle
It was evil and wretched and dire
From a distance the people looked on in horror
While the Priest extinguished the fire
The Priest he extinguished the fire
Fifty years to this day
The tale brings the elders to weep
A left-handed Priest will lead the prayers
In hope that the worm still sleeps
We all hope that the worm still sleeps

Singularity
08:25
|

Scientists they say we don’t matter
But the Universe has other ideas
Embrace as our particles scatter
The Time Wave ends after all of these years
Singularity
Infinite Novelty
As we reach the end do not fear
We were always meant to be here
As time and space meet as one
We are the Eschaton
Drawn toward the transcendental object at the end of time
Under history and ideology we have to draw a line
Shamanic experience tells us all we need to know
We’ve been offered this transition we have to go
Singularity
Infinite Novelty
As we reach the end do not fear
We were always meant to be here
As time and space meet as one
We are the Eschaton

Open Handed

It's the open handed way
With which you offer me to stay
Not for the night or for the day
But for always
