Suspended Zen

Recommended Posts

Hey all, heres some lyrics Ive written for my lil rock and/or roll project. Enjoy....

 

'Naked Lunch' (heavy f'n metal tune)

 

Epic illusions on an ultragrand scale

Marley wannabes puffin on a greengrass bale

No repent from the riot on a yay-train rail

Feelin like a universe that’s designed to fail

 

(chorus)

Dining on a naked lunch

Of denial and crime

Trusting Burroughs is a marksman

Get to meet the end of time

 

Reading scriptures of the hysterically stark

Turning pages baring the Dharma Lion

Clock says its noon but I feel its dark

Beautiful for situation, this cant be Mt. Zion

 

Flippin all the switches for the one to stop the droning

Of a billion dipshits successfully cloning

Soundtrack of our planet is screams and moaning

Power-smack junkies and all the righteous stonings

 

(chorus)

 

 

‘Antithesis’

 

Amidst..chaos….rulers..flourish

Planets..aligned for…a new resolve to

Crumble..the..almighty..wall

 

(chorus)

To any and all ikons I do pray

Told to speak and what do we say?

Yeah, we’re told to speak but what do we say?

To any and all ikons I do pray

 

Its quite alright I have learned

To look at a body dead and burned

Yeah, it’s quite alright to kill off kids

Just don’t get caught looking at some girl’s tits

 

Told to speak and what do I say?

Yeah, I’m told to speak but what do I say?

 

On..hilltops….giants..cringe

In..disgrace….kings..refuse to

Crumble the almighty wall

 

(chorus)

 

Young and old we share a disease

We hate to love and we kill for peace

We’ll die to win but we’re scared we’ll lose

So many doors and which will we choose?

 

Told to speak and what do I say?

Yeah, Im told to speak but what do I say?

 

In..caves….hermits..smile

By..rail….losers..travel

Today…things…will…change

The..bright lights..sermonize

Revolutionize…bring kings down to size

 

(chorus)

 

 

“Ghosts”

 

Ingest the still photos

Of your heart and mind

Of every day gone

Wrong or right

 

Find all you’ve ever needed

Beyond the bounds of this

Of all whose felt alone

After everything gone behind

 

(chorus)

As the ghosts of the past remind us

Regrets assume the pose

Of all we thought we’d be

And tomorrow hobbles on

 

Ingest the still photos

Of life’s memories gone by

Keep that held close beside you

Never let go of this

 

Theres nothing left to gain when

Theres nothing left to lose

Life is our own shared secrets

And I’m feeling this surround me

 

(chorus)

 

“Fading”

 

The last move before the next one

Can I fuck up again just say this

Step back, walk away, turning steps up to a run

Past these waning days of gayness

 

Growing old in a hurricane of

Introspective destruction trumping aces of expression

Tiring a ceaseless rummaging of love

Finding new deals for a great depression

 

Life’s presence a little tramp at the ending credits

Losses chalked up and parading

On the setting sun it sits

An extended metaphor of fading

 

“Kinsasha Highway”

 

Trust-funded hipsters

Blood-hounded flippers

Look hyper, dance free, love, fuck, play

Nuk-chewin candy-ravin trippers

 

Off the ground, on the run

Supra-cool fake culture romance

Every nickel ‘n’ dime thinks he’s Lou Reed

Lost, found, wasted, where

 

On the paved dirt dreaming

Screaming, where did life go?

Yay-fueled people hating

White Housed liberty slaying

 

Towers of freedom’s fall brings

New excuses to crown new kings

Cities dying, nations crying, monarchs climbing

On up to where?

 

On the streets lost, am I out of mind

Howlin’ for Ginsberg, Dylan, looking for Kesey

Only finding plastic GI Joe suit ‘n’ ties

Johnboy Ashcroft and GWB

 

On the road to pain, to fear, today

Kinsasha Highway

No love, no of the people free, no way

Kinsasha Highway

Kinsasha Highway

Beltway cancer DC

 

Tax the souls of the blue collar

Ghetto life sold to MTV and the radio

All these balers ‘n’ shock collars

Wannabe hos that just cant say no

 

Starved politico pigs wallow

In mud pits with lobby fleas

America just take it and swallow

Be that best puppet that you can be

 

Money, money imperfect pharmacy

Feeling good’s a crime for fat bosses’ profit

A nations windows so tinted that it cant see

Only we the people can grow to stop it

 

Losing freedom, fear and loathing

We, the next generation becoming mindless pawns

House seats’ pockets sit fat and bloating

Gotta stand up before our new slave day dawns

 

On the road to pain, to fear, today

Kinsasha Highway

No love, no of the people free, no way

Kinsasha Highway

Kinsasha Highway

Beltway cancer DC

 

Where is Ken Kesey? Where is Ken Kesey?

Where is Ken Kesey? Where is Ken Kesey?

We got to be.
