Intro 00:36
2.
Helium 02:58
Let’s be practical, for the sake of childish scrawl Remember that thread, watch the heads, wanted us to stay down Go back down, tired of them all It's a problem, we'll stipulate Wanted the piece of--the delicate thread Succinct fabrics--the ideal crevices Rip the parachutes, soft signals Buoyant envelope, we’ll stay afloat Treat it as a project Conceive it, not an object Take time, we’ll start it Hold on, to this fabric Go back down, tired of them all It's improbable, tired of them all
3.
For all we know it is, skeptical of future tense and that’s where knowledge resides, between the habits, you’re lost in time Future states, don’t have hope, my past today, the sequence is broke Form habitual ties, I need to survive I won’t give up hope, let’s we are right This pathway is not a determined line No knowledge of our path this time Constant conjoin along the dotted line Cut the slices of the present tense Habits, all that’s left, a temporal mess Seams of value are projected there Habits, all that’s left, a temporal mess
4.
Dress Shirts 02:51
My values are seamless and targeted Our paths will cross, my aims, disregarded My goals are misplaced and will conflict, between my corduroy pants that mend wrinkled ties that keep me up late at night My dress shirts will hold me up, and stay driven to what has value for us. They are worn out and used too much, still attached to the meaning, these are not my inferences, this has value for us, they are worn out and used too much. Seamless trace, wayward and targeted for our lack of ways, desires, delicate
5.
Pastures 04:10
The shame I feel, Ignorant, lost and numb, conflicted Culture of brutality, the state of liberty Educate biblically, participants, prosperity The pride I feel, has lost its mark I'll wallow in the dark The pasture has been sucked dry of nutrients Fixate on the depth, violent Juxtapose, it's comforting, I'm anxious I’ll stipulate, I’m skeptical, it’s vacuous Sit down for the pain, Let the pride win again The pasture is luscious for some of us Educate the masses, it's dubious Juxtapose, it's comforting, I'm anxious I’ll stipulate, I’m skeptical, it’s vacuous
6.
Identity 03:54
I’m built for it, interwoven, laces on and still I’m holding [on] I’ll finally decide, context driven, intermingle, and still I’m holding [on] Between societies and train myself to sleep And then the context begins, it’s owed, it’s owed to me Obligate and wait, a sojourn Futile attempts to wait, to wait and see I’m burned, I’m burned beneath the haze, it’s owed to me [The] context depends, it’s thankless Obligate and wait, a sojourn Obligate and wait, a sojourn A forced needle are meant to fade and wither away Value-laden, precarious, I’m broken
7.
Questioning oneself, Leads to reflective . . . bend, In which one hides confidence, Bend to exchange the foundations. Broken evidence is all that’s left I can mend this bridge, you want to destroy it Complement and make amends Constructed from previous mistakes And finding solace in all that is, In which one hides confidence, Bend to exchange the foundations. I’m a spectator, self-aware of my own weaknesses Deliberate and choose which self is already chosen
8.
Creationist 03:55
Protect creation, background myths Fine-tuned for life, creationist Desire functional aims, impose and stipulate Sufficient background, it's impotent There's altruism, beneficent Send the fury and fire, I won't be there For forgiveness. Strike down the imposition, it seems fair to Want contrition Justified ends, for fine-tuning
9.
Deflect and ignore them, The details are within Designed to cause actions, Patterns are within Gut reactions, Constructed to fail My intuition bleeds, It fires thin, I’ll trust them when, They have solidity Hold firm, intuition Reshape, recognition I’ll hold off the patterns Transcend the argument It’s so obvious I’ll hold off the patterns Disposition, marred by Actual scars, it’s pantomime Tempted to seek solace Evolution, determined I can’t trust them, you would want to believe, Carving nature at its joints It fires thin, I’ll trust them when, They have solidity
10.
Depart from the red, specialize your skill set. We are not endangered, we’ll be all that’s left. Climb these tree tops, designed to be specialized, we are functional machines. It’s our choice, to be caged. These are sound judgments, as to why I did what I did. My neurotic states in so many, prima facie dictate. This is not a self-effacing gesture, but a prolonged puncture. Who wants this anyway? Tactless gestures, sarcastic remarks. Tired of my designed state.
11.
Objective view falls away, It's diligent and safe. Let's mark reality, Let's play our foolish games. The view from nowhere, is absent of quality It’s constructed, piece by piece it lays Let’s say, a domain Let’s say, we’ll stipulate Let’s say, eyes are glued Point of view, is nowhere in you Crisis in our thoughts Sure marker of what? Privacy is lit To nowhere Objective view, away It's safe and true, away I'm desperate, and longing for this trick The conflict between the subjective The view from nowhere I can't see it anymore and it's gone away
12.
Pass the time, with nothing. How will they survive? Vacuous. Hoot and holler out there, facade of. What’s the argument? It’s there, it’s shot. So drive your students, misfire. Feem them common sense and worship. Nothing, you’ve wasted their time, empty. Blindly accept, truth for the willing and branded. Your so-called faith in capital justice. Proclaim your principles backed by glass houses. Throw your stones at the rational. Come out and explain your defense. Cling to your guts, your feelings are sacred. Intuitions cannot be questioned. The louder you scream, you’ll win by default. Settle up to your favorite feeling.
