Sonic Disturbance
03:54
|

|
You deserve to be exiled
And we deserve better than second best
A sonic disturbance in your mind
Sonic disturbance
Your corruption is so predictable
And eating away at the periphery is my sonic disturbance
A sonic disturbance in your mind
Sonic disturbance

Computer Music Revolt
04:36
|
|||
|
Whispering in the electronic ear
Meditating on a new beginning
The hierarchy just fell
A computer music revolt
Computer music revolt dissolving your speakers
Unleash your creativity
Remove all negativity
Open up through high technology
The hierarchy just fell
A computer music revolt
Computer music revolt it pulls you in
The hierarchy just fell
A computer music revolt dissolving your speakers

Beauty From Nothingness
05:29
|
|||
|
Beauty from nothingness
It’s a quality you can have
Buried in confusing words
Waiting for impact
Beauty from nothingness
Traveling the wireless grid
To become an energy source
You are the information
What do you expect when you only extract from that which gives freely?
What do you expect when you only extract beauty from nothingness?

What happens when you destroy the most valuable resource we’d ever have?
Depreciate the future’s best real estate for short term gain?
Music becomes a weapon
An audio wave to the heart
Ripping freedom from those who would oppose the rise of Direct Democracy
What happens when you drain the vitality from the lake?
And leave in your wake a wasteland of poverty and polluted streams?
Music becomes a weapon
An audio wave to the heart
Ripping freedom from those who would oppose the rise of Direct Democracy
Music becomes a weapon
An audio wave to the heart
What happens when your company is hooked on a testosterone drip?
And you push the button every time you want to hide?

An act of unparalleled genius

The Earth Off Its Axis
05:08
|
|||
|
It's a brave new world with uncertainty
And the need for control inevitably leads to the Earth off its axis
The Earth expanding the impulse towards greater prosperity
But their forms of control must ultimately be reduced to
the Earth off its axis- the Earth
Will you just stand there and take it?
Will you just sit back and watch?
The Earth off its axis- The Earth
We're ready for the Earth off its axis

Being lucky doesn't equal talent
Being first in the door doesn't mean you deserve more of what is OURS
The complete eradication of corporate vampirism
Writing your own rules to starve the youth
Interview away all signs of free thought or individuality
The complete eradication of corporate vampirism
If you are not a parasite why do you bleed the economy dry?
Using inheritance to limit competition
Claiming to own things given to you through Legalese and conformity
The complete eradication of corporate vampirism
If you are not a leach what do you need with everyone's integrity?

You're shielded from accountability
Lazy
Wouldn't want you to get your fingernails dirty

Limited Liability
You're protected from responsibility
Poolside
Expecting your next drink from a servant society
Such a fine line between dependence and productivity
But the waves will find you
It's crashing in
Digital evolution
The head of the snake
It's alright- it's OK to make amends, to feel inspired
The inspiration to start over again

It's not too late
You can lead a benevolent and moral company

Where did you go in the audio?
Are you still outside your speakers?
Or did you get behind the meaning?
Did music turn backwards?
When music turns against itself an industry falls
When music turns against itself
Where did you go in the audio?
Are you still outside your speakers?
Are you still in line to be the same?
Or are you an electrical virus infinity?
When music turns against itself an industry falls
When music turns against itself
It's an exponential increase in collective generosity
Where did you go in the audio?
Are you still outside your speakers?
Or did you undermine structure in favor of intimacy?
When music turns against itself
Spanning the distance
To the equilibrium
