SUBVERT
No more power for power's sake
Son of purpose, freedom's daughter
Non compliant, resilient as fuck
Leaders expelled to the dustbin of history
Catch the sun's rays, fuel our best hope
Growing our freedom in every back yard
Blow open the cages we've built for ourselves
Tear down the government, open the village square
Time to tame this monster...
Fear the Other no longer.
Decentralise, realise that we can
no longer count on our state to uphold
our interests, our health, our fucking wellbeing
We're completely on our own.
Time to tame this monster...
Fear the Other no longer.
[We will break the system].
If you cannot dream, you cannot build.
We are nothing if not problem solvers.
Beauty regrown and hacked to endure.
The kinder type of rebellion.
Cancelling our broken future
Is always work in progress.
The secret is we made this world,
so we can remake it differently.
We will wait if we must
We will bleed if we must
If we fall in the dust
We will never lose trust
in the purpose we have
We will hope 'cause we must
We will break this system.
Son of purpose, freedom's daughter
Father of change and mother of hope.
Crush the class of parasites
Drag the unwilling to the crest of the slope.
Look down upon what you have built
A critical eye will never betray
The master plan of divide and rule
Will finally have had its day.
If you cannot dream, you cannot build.
We are nothing if not problem solvers.
Beauty regrown and hacked to endure.
The kinder type of rebellion.
Cancelling our broken future
Is always work in progress.
The secret is we made this world,
so we can remake it differently.
We will wait if we must
We will bleed if we must
But on a timeline long enough
We will always win.

INTERESTING TIMES.
May you live in simple times.
May you live in happy times.
I just wanted to explain it all and keep it oh so simple.
May you live in kinder times...
The white noise of ignorance blasting through
so loud it feels like a physical barrier crushing me
that drowns out my soul and every thought.
Ears bleeding, I flee into the night.
The bitter cold soothes my churning rage
against a world without logic or justice.
I could just end it here, fall asleep in the snow
and drift away.
I just wanted to explain it all and keep it oh so simple
May you live in kinder times.
Cursed with knowledge that refuses to be shared.
A rogue planet spinning through the void.
Breathtaking loneliness, I cannot reconnect.
But this time will be different,
now the rules have changed,
the problem's too great to be ignored.
Realisation dawns,
disbelief cast aside,
the clutch of dread drags you down.
Will we emerge from the other side unscathed..?
A mindless explosion of sound, I am reduced to crawling
on the margins of a world disintegrating around us,
as you pretend and scream in denial,
I shall be here waiting.
You must see, you must hear, it is far too late for fear.
There are decades where we fuck around,
there are weeks where we find out.
There are seasons where we try,
there are days where we despair.
There are lifetimes where we waste away,
There are minutes where we rise.
There are aeons waiting for us,
if we don't step up and try.
May you live in gentle times.
May you live in interesting times.

THE BURDEN OF PROOF

THE BURDEN OF PROOF
Falsehood skills, rhetoric thrills,
have conquered the world on feelings alone
Bad actors, bad acting, crocoduck smiles and glassy eyes.
The time, the effort it takes to staunch the flow of lies.
This is our burden now.
The weight that drags us down.
False balance, false equivalence
Now Brandolini’s Law is set in stone
The truth be damned, ignorance wearing the cloak of authority
They bring their god unto the ballot box.
This is our burden now.
The weight that drags us down.
You make our ears bleed with your lies.
Your driving goal is to divide.
Asymmetric warfare going down.
We are the insurgents now.
As the time we have left trickles away
You argue that we are eternal.
But we’ll exhaust your efforts, grind you down.
You will collapse under the weight
of your own inanity,
The black hole of reason, your singularity.
I have no patience for your arrogance.
You provide neither evidence or eloquence.
You are increasingly irrelevant.
As my words grow in resonance.
We sharpen our wit, we sharpen our tongue,
Cut through the bullshit, get the job done.
We will not rest until light shines through.
The burden of proof now rests on you.
You make our ears bleed with your lies.
Your driving goal is to divide.
Asymmetric warfare going down.
We are the insurgents now.

THE COST
Take pity on our self-harming species crawling through a social desert
Driven to rage by overwhelming anxiety crushing inequality fear of the other
We’re no longer wanderers but we’re still plagued by the feeling that no place is home
Atomised communities shallow encounters monetised loneliness
Downloading your new friend choosing its eye colour and personality
Turns out it wants your dead exploiting your weakness for profitability
Uploading your fake life choosing what you show so very carefully
Turns out that this white noise is really the sound of nobody caring
Transcends age and class this epidemic does not discriminate
Desperate for solitude we purchased our privacy the magic of our industrial age
Unlimited power over nature cracked this naked monkey’s brain
We got what we wanted but what was the cost what was the cost
The power of speech the power of thought
The power of change the power of warmth
The power to feel the power to love
The power of loss the power of hope
The power of doubt the power of shame
The power of shock now it all feels the same
The power of trust the power of fear
The power of boredom that lead us all here
The power of zeal the power of lust
Watching as freedom crumbles to dust
The power of grief the power of wrath
The power to choose a different path
Downloading your new friend it whispers what you want to hear
It gets inside your head turns out it wants you to live in fear
Uploading your fake life a sponsored link to a beautiful lie
Turns out that this white noise is really the sound of nobody caring
Unlimited power over nature cracked this naked monkey’s brain X 4

THREE MEALS FROM CHAOS

THREE MEALS FROM CHAOS.
Clouds of dust choke up a troubled sky,
The first domino topples, the stakes are so high.
Our problems inflated, we now count the cost.
Full, never sated, so many opportunities lost.
Emptiness nips at the heels of one-trick leaders who have no response.
Grain slips through our fingers, rotting in silos, what the hell do we want ?
There are no rules for this, there is no procedure for this,
Buying into the panic is just the beginning.
Each link is weak, it sickens me to think that
Every single part of this could be avoided.
The worst weapon of mass destruction
has been deployed.
Lays all to waste and crushes rebellion,
a gaping void...
Three meals from chaos !
Three meals from chaos !
Blackmail, diplomacy through empty shelves,
Artificial shortages, yet change never sells.
Crippling dependancy, autocrat scum,
So much is wasted, too late for some.
No soup from the sky.
The third horseman rides...
Born to starve, they passed last night.
Seventy years too young.
The worst weapon of mass destruction
has been deployed.
Lays all to waste and crushes rebellion,
a gaping void...
A nightmare for four hundred million
will now unfold.
Failure of harvest, failure of reason,
Misery untold.
Three meals from chaos !
Three meals from chaos !
We have scorched the Earth
Our lands bleeding dry
We must now sustain
Regenerate and ally.
No soup from the sky.
The third horseman rides...
Born to starve, they passed last night.
Seventy years too young.

THE POINT
We will soon reach the point where there’ll be nothing left for you
It’s been coming for so long and I’ll not gonna lie
As the oil runs dry as the waters rise the horizon darkens
They will try to take your future too
Twisted birthright realm of shadow
A pocket full of crypto and NFTs
An obsession with supplanting the material with some lame metaverse
Engineered by someone twice your age
Toxic escapism the real world is no longer enough
And they will try to kill all of yours dreams too
Twisted birthright realm of shadow
A pocket full of crypto and NFTs
Leasing sunlight borrowing time
Pay-to-win features and DLC
Breathe in breathe out breathe in
Don’t give up yet because
Breathe in breathe out breathe in
Don’t panic yet because
We will soon reach the point where their lies wil bounce off of you
And they will try to force it through
When this day comes as the waters rise the horizon reddens
They will have to defer to you
Twisted birthright realm of shadow
A pocket full of crypto and NFTs
Leasing sunlight borrowing time
Pay-to-win features and DLC
Breathe Breathe
Breathe in breathe out breathe in
Don’t give up yet because
Breathe in breathe out breathe in X 2
Don’t panic yet because
Don’t panic / Don’t panic
INSTRUMENTAL Theremin
Don’t panic / don’t panic …
The only thing they fear is you X 4
It’s you

ANTHROPOCENE
The forests make way for towers and walls,
these are succeeded by deserts and wastelands.
No great empire was ever destroyed
They only ever collapse from within.
The holocene dream is over.
The road to ruin is swift and abrupt
This drive to collapse is a feature
of a system we strive to shore up.
...and still we race to discover remedies for the sickness we've unleashed.
We cannot wish this one away,
or greenwash our hands of these stains.
The axe in the hand of a psychopath.
Overshooting day after day.
The holocene dream is over.
The road to ruin is swift and abrupt.
This drive to collapse is a feature
of a system we strive to shore up.
...and still we race to discover remedies for the sickness we've unleashed.
Brace yourselves, summer is coming!
Gradual downward trend, full-on decline.
A ten-thousand year change in one single lifetime.
A pathological rage of destruction,
Suicidal fever of mass-production.
We take, we wander, we grow.
Now it is time to rise to the challenge.
We hunt, we gather, we sow.
Now it is time to apply what we've learnt.
Gradual downward trend, full-on decline.
A ten-thousand year change in one single lifetime.
A pathological rage of destruction,
Suicidal fever of mass-production.
We reach, we blunder, we dream.
Getting it all wrong time after time.
We doubt, we wonder, we scheme.
The stakes are much higher than ever before.
Brace yourselves, summer is coming!
Stability lost, an unstoppable decline,
A thousand generations lead to this point.
Now it is time to apply what we've learnt,
Now it is time to show what we are worth.
The clock is ticking, the candle is flickering,
Sea rise is creeping, gathering pace.
A dream of my home town, now it's an island,
An ocean rolls across the surrounding plain.
Now is the time to apply what we've learnt,
Now is the time to show what we are

THE MOST DANGEROUS ORGANISATION IN THE WORLD
They are silently slipping their fingers
around the throat of liberty.
They feel its pulse, they sense its weakness
the crushing grip of theocracy.
Their generational project plays out in courts across the land.
Coming to fruition as the apocalypse is at hand.
Stunned disbelief, (but it's worse than you think).
Their secret is that they welcome Rapture.
If you're a dissident, their God wants you dead!
If you're a commie, their God wants you dead!
If you're a liberal, their God wants you dead!
If you're not straight, their God wants you dead!
Slick, suited leaders whip up insane beliefs,
Fanatical death cult, and it's armed to the teeth.
A nation wracked by storms and wildfire,
reaping the mayhem they have sown.
Let them all drown, let them all burn,
Their God will know His own.
Providing absolute salvation for the unborn,
But slaughtering children to guard the rights of the reborn.
Stunned disbelief, (but it's worse than you think).
Their secret is that they welcome oblivion.
If you're a woman, their God wants you enslaved!
If you're a teacher, their God wants you enslaved!
If you're a journalist, their God wants you enslaved!
If you're a child, their God wants you dead!
Slick, suited leaders whip up insane beliefs,
Fanatical death cult, and it's armed to the teeth.
Deadlocked democracy, unable to act.
All checks and balances have finally cracked.
Let them all drown, let them all burn,
Their God will know His own.
