VNV Nation – Genesis
Breathing an air
Permeated, soaked in darkness
Emanating from within
Resonating like a scream no one can hear
I wear this chaos well
Though none should save me
Desperation keeps me here
My need for innocence
The place where I began
The abyss becomes me
I wear this chaos well
Are these not words of heresy?
A venom on my lips, a poison?
My spirit impurified
In everything I choose to say
With you I stand in hope
That God will save us from ourselves
Every cry a wasted moment
Until another day is lost
Even lands we once called home
Lie undiscovered and unknown
Only heaven’s silence for an answer
And did our laughter, did our tears
Have some purpose after all?
Did we toil in vain in hope
That wisdom came from what we’d done?
Even lands we once called home
Lie undiscovered and unknown
Only heaven’s silence for an answer
Are these not words of heresy?
A venom on my lips, a poison?
My spirit impurified
In everything I choose to say
If I would shed my skin, the layers left
But not the lessons learned
It would not undo what I have done
Or grant forgiveness in some better days
With you I stand in hope
That God will save us from ourselves
Every cry a wasted moment
Until another day is lost
Even lands we once called home
Lie undiscovered and unknown
Only heaven’s silence for an answer
And did our laughter, did our tears
Have some purpose after all?
Did we toil in vain in hope
That wisdom came from what we’d done?
Even lands we once called home
Lie undiscovered and unknown
Only heaven’s silence for an answer
Envy is Blind – Sea of Flames
With you I’d fly to the surface
Where the oceans rise and fall
And everything lives a short while
There’s a pattern to the way we die
And as the flash leads the thunder
We see the brilliance on the waves
Reflecting to remind us
That we stand in a sea of flames
And I have never known such beauty
As the wonders of the mind
And at the edge of the moment
Creation gives design
[To everything]
Here we stand together
Seizing the sirens’ waves
And if you listen closely
You’ll hear that they sing our names
[In a sea of flames]
And the air we breathe is water
And the fire burns our hearts
But this tension of division
Breaks the edge and the real divide
So then nothing lies between us
And everything falls beyond
Strength exists immortal
But is not only for those who are
Front Line Assembly – Transmitter (Come Together)
A jaded generation
Dissolves the unknown
Neurotic deprivation
No one left to own
Sinking endlessly
Into infancy
Let’s come together
Narcotic imbalance
The energy is strong
Resilient and defiant
This claustrophobic song
So cold is the water
Crouched into a ball
Like fragments of illusion
We all start to fall
Let’s all come together
Let’s all join hands
Let’s all march together
Let’s do the war dance
The universe
The stars
The planets
Civilization
Edge of Dawn – Pray For Love
Early on in my life I was confused
Took the path of someone else
Today I might be you
I can’t get out
Second to none
I can’t get out
Invisible sun
I’m sick, you’re not
I might be you
Invisible sun
Early on in my life I made a choice
Someday I’d use a gun to stop the noise
(Stop the noise!)
Pray for love
We dance
To an inaudible drum
Stay for love
In the light
Of an invisible sun
(x2)
(Stop the noise! x4)
Early on in my life I made a choice
I couldn’t go on with all the noise
All the noise
(I might be you!)
Pray for love
We dance
To an inaudible drum
Stay for love
In the light
(Stop the noise!)
Of an invisible sun
(Stop the noise!)
Hey
Invite
Follow
Pray
Follow
Invisible sun
Pray for love
We dance
To an inaudible drum
Stay for love
In the light
Of an invisible sun
(x2)
Depeche Mode – Macro
Overflowing senses
Heightened awareness
I hear my blood flow
I feel its caress
Whispering cosmos
Talking right to me
Unlimited, endless
God breathing through me
See the microcosm
In macro vision
Our bodies moving
With pure precision
One universal celebration
One evolution
One creation
Thundering rhythm
Pounding within me
Driving me onwards
Forcing me to see
Clear and enlightening
Right there before me
Brilliantly shining
Intricate beauty
See the microcosm
In macro vision
Our bodies moving
With pure precision
One universal celebration
One evolution
One creation
Juno Reactor (w/Don Davis) – Navras
Asato ma sad gamaya
tamaso ma jyotir gamaya
mrtyor mamrtam gamaya
Om shanti shanti shanti
Jnani manasa saha
Buddhis ca na vicestate
Tam ahuh paramam gatim
Translation:
From delusion lead me to truth
From darkness lead me to light
From death lead me to immortality.
Let there be peace everywhere
When the five senses and the mind are still, and reason itself rests in silence, then begins the Path supreme
Assemblage 23 – Binary
Monochromatic reasoning
A divide and conquer legacy
Dissect and over-simplify
All hail the death of compromise
CHORUS
The world isn’t rendered in black and white
Other shades lie between
Don’t view the world with binary eyes
We are human, not machine
Eliminate the critical
When it all becomes too difficult
Ignore the layers of subtlety
Force feed them full of your beliefs
(CHORUS)
Some day when we all awake
From the dreams we dreamt for country’s sake
The logic you let come undone
Is the noose that you’ll be hanging from
(CHORUS)
In Strict Confidence – Eye of Heaven
Brokenhearted
The moon leaves earth
Looking for a new world
To protect & serve
To avoid the danger
Of increasing heaven´s space
My eyes covered with blindness
Diving into endless grace
As long black rainbows fight the light
Conquer and turn dawn into night
Holding on – going down
The sun takes off her crown
As long as stars brighten the sky
As long as time is passing by
Protect the eye of heaven
Celestial bodies
Nestling close to me
In search for shelter
And security
Dust of clouds
Cover desert sky
To save us from a demon´s seed
The seas run dry
As long black rainbows fight the light
Conquer and turn dawn into night
Holding on – going down
The sun takes off her crown
As long as stars brighten the sky
As long as time is passing by
Protect the eye of heaven
Cherrie Blue – The Ritual (unofficial lyrics)
sample (It’s a big world, you gotta go where it’s happening)
You know it feels good

We’re gonna get, high high
We’re gonna get, high
Come on now baby, sweat it baby
Come on now baby, I will show you how
