2 - your skin, celestial wet moonlight shining on your lips a silver torch across the night like a bed of human wings with kisses in the grip of fire sweetest sweat milk and honey in this new caanan dazzled with the falling stars that soak your skin celestial sing to me in whispers beyond the barriers of dream heavens earthbound unveil between your open limbs, limitless and free within these temple walls mysteries revealed your infinite heart infinite heat within your hair, bewteen your breasts and feet pulses racing towards the edge of realities within these walls all truths revealed your infinite heart infinite heat endless bewteen your breasts and feet will you sing to me in whispers? in the borderlands of lovers' wildest dreams to the front line to the surface of an eternal sun I will never fear while you stand with me 3 - against the gods wake up and burn the sun it shines with new intensity emerge in alleys incandescent with violent fascination crash in from the future to sunder doors like gateways to another world opened with a savage kiss ruins, ruins, we live in towers crumbling under their own weight let us gather, silent in their shadow (to make them ours) support conspiracies against the gods of sleep and separation let's trip the street light haze fantastic as if smog were dry ice vapour in deep and empty spaces we collide a thousand sparks alive within ready to live willing to die ready to live let's trip the street light haze fantastic as if smog were dry ice vapour with heated breath in hidden hours we're shining, feral in the glow of action's blaze support conspiracies against the dictatorship of the commodity sing subversion like a storm of lips, naked against the night 4 - behind plastic eyes echoes crash against the walls sweeping in slow motion across these fractured spaces a salty cascade it pours over the levee in momentary lapses of unreason we run on deprivation images pass before our sunken eyes rapid and automatic we descend we descend a vague and ghost-like sense of loss lingers, and then it fades numb, beyond haunting no longer longing for deleted memories you and I, s u s p e n d e d in icy glow behind the plastic eyes of apparition sundered animation becoming fragmentation in severed moments without pasts slowly shuffling on and off this plain of drifting dust becoming nothing 5 - breakin' the law of value the march is on and we cannot slow the pace stone by stone foundations crack and tumble to the ground all is crisis all is crisis decline and disillusion the clocks have stopped the hours lay broken, shattered like shards of storefront glass estrangement universal is melting on an unseen pyre smoke rising at the touch of flame-smeared hearts multitudes, we move like lovers dancing in the shifting light of auto-fires NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! raise the scream of refusal like a fist in the face of a corroded god this dead-weight is tired, all is crisis all is crisis from freeways, workshops, battlefields our martyrs call as we grasp the hour in strong and earthy hands and pound a stake right through its' vampire heart the march is on we cannot slow the pace we are the final crisis and you will never save this moribund machine on the backs and blood of those who toil 7 - beneath a sinking sky (bonus track) hiding from mirrors shining jet in disrepair awaiting angels from some distant fading star elysium evaporating standing on earth hallowed in radiation wet with acid tears defeat after defeat holds us like a leaden weight upon the silver altar is this the end? can we walk beneath a sinking sky forever? defeat after defeat an aching education armor for the struggle shoulder to shoulder casting stones and petrol bombs into the falling sky this is not the end this is not the end
