NEW MEANINGS
New meanings for everything you've seen and believed
Reroute the synapses the routine collapses
Make efforts so clever you don't see it coming
Paint over the layers become a soothsayer
In the zone
Independent
In for good
Independent

Which came first the question or the answer?
Today is a zombie melodrama
Duality, Reality, Triviality
Every moment's cluttered by opinion
I'm trading sleep for a zombie mañana
Monotony, Lobotomy, Surreality

WHISTLEBLOWER
The deception
Go on as you were
There is nothing to see here
CONFIDENTIAL
"We know all the answers
But we cannot share them with you"
The deceit, the descent
Deliberate oppression of the transcendental
"Our agenda does not concern you!"
We the good sheeple
Victims of evil
I don't want to say that it's all a trick
but it's not what you think
Limitations
Imposed down upon us
by those who claim to lead us
This is old news
This is the last turning point
You're either with us or lost forever
Don't be scared it's ok
We all know that entropy is the only way
Look at the bigger picture
Violence, politics, overpopulation and climate change
We can't be far from rock bottom
We the good people can conquer evil
It will never be easy
It won't ever be easy

BEAUTY
Finding your way in the dark
Ain't half as tough as
Finding your way in the light
How funny it is to feel like an outsider
When it's coming from within
But such is so familiar
Where can I even begin?
I'm distracted by things of little worth
I just want to roam around the earth
There is beauty to be seen
Drink Water from a spring
What you're looking for can be
Anything, anything, anything
Holding your breath underwater,
Holding water in the air
Why do I lose myself?
So far gone, gone again, No control
I've fired all of my flares
No one there, nobody, gone again
There is beauty to be seen
Drink Water from a spring
What you're looking for can be
Anything, anything, anything

Stampede
Everyone is rushing me
then they have the nerve to ask
why I'm going so fast
"It's not like there's a stampede
right behind you threatening your life"
They say this with a grin
A real shit-eating grin
A smile more mischievous than contagious
More infected than infectious
The reaper beckoning on your life
They haven't caught up with me
They are craving my destiny
Like a pack of salivating dogs
Like a pack of swirling vultures
What will it take to stop the herd
and why aren't you more disturbed?
Everyone is rushing me
then they have the nerve to ask
why I'm going so fast
"It's not like there's a stampede
right behind you threatening your life"
They say this with a grin
A real shit-eating grin
A smile more mischievous than contagious
More infected than infectious
The reaper beckoning on your life
No one can take my energy
I'm the only one with that kind of power
No one can take my energy
I am the only one with that kind of power
With the force of a nuclear reactor
With the force of chemical warfare
What will it take to stop the man
and what's your back up plan?
Everyone is rushing me
then they have the nerve to ask
why I'm going so fast
"It's not like there's a stampede
right behind you threatening your life"
They say this with a grin
A real shit-eating grin
A smile more mischievous than contagious
More infected than infectious
The reaper beckoning on your life

FULL IMMERSION
You soul seek
You thrive in the deep end
The way we used to
We're past the days of lazy daydreams
The way we used to
You thrive in the deep end
You soul Seek
You know me
I dive in the deep end
The way olympians do, but into the pool of life
The way we used to
I dive in the deep end
The potential is everlasting
So demand it, no asking
There is no dipping your toe
The water is perfect
Full Immersion, I'm talking all in no faking
the adventures, escapades, noble journeys
The d-d-d-d-digitalization of human moments
Digital addiction it can take you down
The potential is everlasting
So demand it, no asking
There is no dipping your toe
The water is perfect
Full Immersion, I'm talking all in no faking
the adventures, escapades, noble journeys
The d-d-d-d-digitalization of human moments
Digital addiction it can take you down

REENACTMENT
In speaking I have tainted words that could have been
Poems, mantras, a passage to cool fires within
Tip tippy toein' Imitatin' the fluttery motion of escapin'
Tip tippy toe instigatin' a suble reenactment for you
In my return I have stories wicked, twisted, insane
Shapeshifters and plastic souls who wait in vain
To gather up the remaining iotas that once were sustaining
Waiting and waiting and waiting to take a nice chunk out of you
Make your plans for escape
When you know who you're running from
You won't run, you won't run, you won't run
Just take the stage and steal the show
In a single flash I have lost track of who, what, when, where, why?
Your answers resemble dancers when I gently inquire "why?"
I was doing fine 'til you took the stage
Closing the curtains on a golden age
I was doing fine 'til you looked my way
Those eyes they could change the world
In modest words I declare a newfound love for
Making love without inhibition I won't hold back
Feelings sweet feelings
That tormented me lift me up to be all that I can be
Feelings sweet feelings releasing
A subtle reenactment for you
Make your plans for escape
When you know who you're running from
You won't run, you won't run, you won't run
Just take the stage and steal the show

I AM A GHOST
I am a ghost
Deceiving the other apparitions
I no longer feel pain
I'm frozen and numb
I am a host
For viral infestations
It's not a pretty picture
It's still worth a thousand words
Together we can haunt
The people who don't believe
We promise not to torture or taunt
Just a little spook
to jolt them, make them live again
I am a ghost
Deceiving the other apparitions
I no longer feel pain
I'm frozen and numb
I am a host
For viral infestations
It's not a pretty picture
It's still worth a thousand words

UNDERSTAND
At a loss, at a loss for words
Every mutter every stutter falls short
And I always overcomplicate things
I just try to understand
There's a melodrama inside
You and me and all the world
We really do try, we really do (try to understand)
At least we say we do (try to understand)
We walk around like big know-it-alls
Yet most can't say hello or make eye contact
We've built up walls
We gotta tear them down to understand
All flash and no class
All hype and no tact
We talk for miles but trip and fall when we walk
We talk for miles but no one walks in others' shoes
We gotta put them on to understand
Where's the love for our fellow man?
Impatience is the western way
We rarely do try, we rarely do (try to understand)
At least we pay our dues (try to understand
Melodrama

IDLE BRAINS
The moment you awoke did you see magic? (2x)
Wrong side of the bed means you forgot your
Naturally occuring supernatural powers
Eyes in the night sky turn us into satellites
Falling free we're lost in the debris
The deep abyss has taken me
You think I'm making jokes ha ha ha ha ha
Me, myself, and I wish we could say we were
I betrayed myself once and hurt me
We now stand tall and love unconditionally
At sunrise everything aligns
So get up son and improvise
Falling free we're lost in the debris
All of this was unforseen
Eyes in the night skies turn us into satellites
Falling free we're lost in the debris
Blown up into smithereens
Who has the cure for an idle brain? (2x)
The magic bestowed on you from a higher plain
Your naturally occurring supernatural powers

THE NEXT PHASE
I'm ready to move on
When did things become so complex?
I'm trying to pinpoint that moment
There's many distractions
When did I spin so far out?
I'm trying to orbit that moment
Nostalgic tremors every waking hour
Fond pictures playing over and over
To know who I am is all I wish for
Fill my eyes with color
Surround my ears with sound
I'm a mirror reflecting melodies all around
Art is where my heart is
There's no time for petty games
There's no time for shoestring tales
I'm moving on
What was I waiting for?
Longing for the next phase
I've gone forth, how could I not look back?
My memories keep me young
The tremors return now the time is ours
My motion picture playing over and over
To be a strong man is all I push for
Fill my eyes with color
Surround my ears with sound
I'm a mirror reflecting melodies all around
Art is where my heart is
There's no time for petty games
There's no time for shoestring tales

Zombie Mañana Chicago, Illinois
Hello, I'm Zombie Mañana. No fear is the next frontier. PERSEVERE; embrace the blood, sweat, and tears.
This half-man,
half-dream seeks refuge from this place, this world where everything is a race. Tragedies and adversities taught me more than universities. Happiness and ecstasy comes from living with no jealousy. All it takes to be inspiring is to be inspired, and now is the time to rewire.
