1. XENOPHOBE

Never cut by thought or thesis
Evoked by hollow, rabid speeches
That clot up and fall to pieces
Then turn to birds and spread diseases

It turns to chemical meditation
It turns to paranoia and frustration
It turns to gray rotting teeth
It turns to entitled, hateful beliefs

Implant a thought, sow the seed
Groom xenophobic, racist steeds
Loud and dumb, without folly
"Stop evolving, uber alles"

Logic and compassion regress to selfish superstitions
Logic and compassion regress to selfish superstitions

Implant a thought, sow the seed
Groom xenophobic racist steeds
Implant a thought, sow the seed
Groom xenophobic racist steeds

It must be Hell to live in fear


2. FEAR ITSELF

It’s here again

A black mist that creeps into the air
Hangs like a veil and turns off the stars
To the thoughts in the halls of my mind
Softly it speaks, arise
Arise, arise

I let go and fell into the sky
Unable to blink or close my eyes

The world is torn apart
And reality rearranged
In a soft voice it speaks, descend
Descend, descend

I fell from the Heavens, into the sea
The hands of the water wrapped chains around me

Placing fear in my heart
And death in my eyes
In a soft voice it speaks, obey
Obey, obey

I wander the earth apart from the rest
Their eyes and laughter dance on my back
I am filled with their pain
Till just numbness remains

The mist hovers
Dark and quiet
In a soft voice it speaks, decay
Decay, decay, decay
