Into the vortex
Into the fray
More eager fingers
Look to point the blame
Eyes wide and fist deep
In the cookie jar
Thought you were real smart, yeah?
Like hell you are..
Like hell you are
Out from the wreckage
And still the same
Life as a bloodsport
And we lost the game
Thrown onto the heap
Close but no cigar
Thought you’re above it, yeah?
Like hell you are…
Like hell you are

Welcome back
A front row seat for the collapse
We’re kindly asking for you to…
Hold your applause
Wait for all the teeth and jaws
That are still gnashing
Sacrificed for the spectacle
Our lives commodified, our value null
You’re out of luck, they’re out for blood
They’re out for blood
You’re clearly numb
Maybe it was too much fun?
You’re clearly numb
Maybe it was too much fun?
All that gasping
They’re almost done
Conditioned not to love
As useless trappings
Sacrificed for the spectacle
The spectacle
They’re almost done
Conditioned not to love
As useless trappings

Shake me down
Shake me loose
You bring the feathers
And I’ll bring the goose
When we climb the walls
The crucifix falls
I guess we’re just lost souls
I guess we’re just lost souls
Shake a leg
Shake it off
We’re under the wheel
It’s harder to stop
When the devil wants paid
We’ll end the charade
And sink back into our fish bowl
At the end of the day
We can’t shake it away
I guess that’s how it goes
Try as we may
We can’t shake it away
I guess we’re just lost souls
I guess we’re just lost souls

Look what I just found
Lying there on the ground
That certainly ain’t a shiny penny
Some just step around
Others don’t even look down
Though the air is thick and inescapably heavy
The bar crawlers are dazed
But here I am unphased
You tried your best
But I’m one better
The cops have long since gone
I glide into the dawn
Stand back, man
I’m a real high stepper
Look what I just found
Lying there on the ground
Someone’s trash is another’s treasure
Striding without shame
To uncommon acclaim
Your disgust has been my pleasure
It’s been my pleasure…

If you get too attached to an idea about who you are
Then maybe you can’t become who you really ought to be
Because you get stuck in place
And stuck in time
Diminished in body and mind
While other things move
Your looking glass has a narrow view
So you can’t experience things in full
And your heart grows cold
And your eyes strain to see
Fixed on how you thought things were
As if that’s how they should be

16 knives to find
A sound without a sign
And heaven fades into
One hell of a ride
A finger to a scar
Carry pain with pride
But you haven’t peaked
You’ve got some more to climb
Hide away
It’s so high away
High away
It’s so high away…
The body first
Then the memory
Then hopes and dreams
Of everyone I see
Seem to atrophy
The body first
Then the memory
Then hopes and dreams
Of everyone I see
Seem to atrophy
Seem to atrophy
Seem to atrophy

Hey now, not so fast
Take your time to collapse
Close your eyes and lean back
Dive into the sandglas

The flac version of this sounds great in my truck... not a crunch, clip or boom to be heard. That, in itself, gets this major points. This is a lovely combination of early Floyd, U2 and a few San Francisco bands from the '60s with a heavy dose of Helmet tossed in. It's definitely best of breed when it comes to modern psych stuff. Even without a Hammond B3, it gets an easy A+...

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art? But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space.
