I glide
Falling asleep while traveling through time
Clouds are angel squadrons flanking both my sides
In case I should fall
Heaven looks all right
Somewhere between the ground
And where the gods reside
Is where I find my dreams tonight
I spite
The laws of gravity and elevate my height
I watched the stratosphere catch fire that night
The darkness overthrown

Patience as a Virtue

I am out of patience
Waiting for a sign
The road is split in fragments
And me without a guide
They wanna watch me go down
I'm gonna give them such a show
They wanna watch me go down
Only hope I live to see you falling
Touch less automatic
We deliver on our word
To bring you isolation
Lips may move but words are never heard
We all pay the piper someday

We walked down roads where we'd never been before
And we'd never go again if we could help it
We looked each other directly in the eye
As if to apologize for the 100,000th time
We counted one Mississippi but the girls were so pretty
That we thought we never would go home
We told those crass mother fuckers
Not to raise such a ruckus
Running laughing all the way back home
We met in secret under bleachers at the game
Cause the other kids were lame and we could tell that
They didn't care if we never did return
But our parents they were firm
We would have to live and learn
We counted one Mississippi but the girls were so pretty
That we thought we never would go home
We told those crass mother fuckers
Not to raise such a ruckus
Running laughing all the way back home

One More Machine

I am just a sad machine
A poorly engineered machine
I express myself in endless screams
And subvert my mind with feckless dreams
Like one more machine
Can you see the world
Outside of yourself?
Put down your disease
And breathe
Like one more machine

The Devil's Two Step

We'd burn in hell
If we had souls to sell
We drew short straws
Death's fate better than ours
We took the bate
And who wouldn't in our shoes?
We sealed our fate
And bought our teeth eternal gnashing
We flew too high
By gods we were denied
We knew too much
And were treated as such

Blinking lights off in the distance
They're sending messages in code
They are sent and received by no one
And what they're saying no one knows
When all of your childhood dreams have failed
We've got some great
Opportunities in sales
There are those children who believe they
These winks of angels, sparks of ghosts
Can usher them to better places
Upon the wings of UFO's

Apocalyptic Prelude
02:01

When the satellites blot out the sun
We'll be talking on our telephones
Talking about TV like it was our family
No, no, we won't even know
No, no, we won't even notice
When the robots kill us in our sleep
We'll be dreaming about watching TV
Dreaming about which sex in the city character
Represents us most accurately
And what does it say about me

When the World Ends

When the world ends
And all the hard drive stop spinning
And all the cathode rays stop
I know
Somewhere
I'll be smiling
When the world ends
And all the motors stop moving
And all the people fall silent forever
I know
I'll be happy
I'll be happy
When it's all gone
I'll be happy

Bigger Than You
03:19
|
|

|
No new happy life
You are fabulous statistics
If a solitary time you have stepped out of line
You are the dead
So you might as well say goodbye
Because we're bigger than you
Because we're always right
You are the last man
Overcome by helplessness
You are outside of history
And everything is perfectly under controll
You are under controll

The Singular Akron, Ohio
The Singular is a band that holds high the value of music as an experience and strives to make a good one for anyone who cares to listen. As a modest four piece rock band they produce a sound that can be described as cavernous and overwhelming. They triumph the art of storytelling through song, and always invite their audience along with them on a musical journey. ... more
