Reprogram Ourselves
03:19
|

can we reprogram ourselves for love?
can we reprogram ourselves for loving?
can we reprogram ourselves for life?
i don’t know if we can
i don’t know if we can
i don’t know
what am i supposed to do
someone please just tell me
it’s too natural to make mistakes
things are just so complicated
i don’t know where to start
what am i supposed to do
someone please just tell me
can we reprogram ourselves for love?
can we reprogram ourselves for loving?
can we reprogram ourselves for life?
can we reprogram ourselves for living?
i don’t know if we can
i don’t know if we can
i don’t know

Bionic People
04:01
|
|||
everywhere you go
you’re followed by a 60Hz hum
electric currents pass
through appliances and your nerves
you can’t escape the charge
you can’t escape the hum
we’ve got to tune ourselves
to resonate with the frequency
we’re all bionic people
don’t unplug
from society just because
we’re different animals
than we were a little while ago
technology is your friend
if you figure out how
to use it in the right way
to resonate with the frequency
we’re all bionic people
bionic people feel
bionic people breathe
bionic people are
tuned to the frequency

Pause
04:53
|
|||
in between is not my favorite
place to be but it’s the only
place i’m ever at life is
transitions
in the middle of two things
but the things are middles too
feels like other things but they’re all
transitions
motion doesn’t stop can’t stop it
moving always moving towards
another middle always
transitions
i just need a break
need to stay still
need time to stop
need to take a
breath i need to be
motionless
where’s the pause button
on this thing
waiting around til i
grow up and know some stuff
but it never comes just more
transitions
motion does what motion does
spheres spin elliptical
universe expands
time stretches steadily
why do i feel like i’m going
somewhere when the only place
to go is to another
transition
i just need a break
need to stay still
need time to stop
need to take a
breath i need to be
motionless
where’s the pause button
on this fucking thing

Not Your Opinions
03:27
|
|||
you’re not identical with your opinions
or your taste in things
it’s a self constructed from
your past
dissolve your boundaries
don’t be caged in
just ‘cause you’re a body
seeing the world from within
it doesn’t mean you’re different
just means you occupy space
different from other people
who also occupy space
that’s different from yours
we’re all human beings living in time and space
it’s not our place
to judge one another
as if we know
it’s okay to have opinions
just don’t get too attached
‘cause you’re not your opinions
you’re just the person
who has all your experiences
because you occupy space
different from other people
who also occupy space
that’s different from yours

Comfort
03:51
|
|||
there is a disconnect
between what i know and what i feel
it may be naïve
to perceive the world with love
i need comfort in
confusion
comfort in
confusion
i have anxiety
‘cause i want things to change
but things don’t change
they only rearrange
i need comfort in
confusion
comfort in
confusion

No Mutant Jive
03:44
|
|||
civilizations crumble after a while
it’s just how
history unfolds and now
we’ve got to
deal
but I hope that
we’ll be alive
to start a new one
with no mutant jive
don’t want no nuclear bomb
don’t want no bully cops
just want the people to be
able to have a say
if the people who see people as numbers
don’t recognize
that every person is a whole world
we’re all
fucked
but I hope that
we’ll be alive
to start a new one
with no mutant jive
don’t want no sociopaths
running my civilization
just want the people to be
able to have a say

Thi-hi-hink
02:59
|

don’t listen
to any
one who tells
you how to think
think for yourself
it’s the only solution
otherwise the joke’s
on you and you’re living
in a world of advertisements
for products you don’t need
but you always seem to want them
and do just what you’re told
living in a world of statements
is not the way to be
when everything’s a question
you get closer to being “free”
don’t listen
to any
one who tells
you how to think
think for yourself
it’s the only solution
otherwise the joke’s
on you and you’re living
believing in a god
and national pride
with a steady set of morals
laid on you from the start
you must question every aspect
of what you’ve been told
don’t be bound on societal grounds
just because you don’t
think for yourself
it’s the way out
think for yourself
out of your mental bounds

Fuzzy Logic
04:45
|
|||
why do we see the world in binary
when opposites are figments
world is not organized so when we try we fail
but we might as well be okay with
fuzzy logic
i wish things could fit inside a sentence
then the world might make some sense
we should to accept that we need to change our minds
see the world as blurred degrees
separations are a product of the mind
that are often quite helpful
but when dealing with humans and truth
they’ll lead us all astray
there is nothing that will get us directly to the truth
but we might as well be okay with
fuzzy logic
i wish things could fit inside a sentence
then the world might make some sense

Feels Fluid
02:59
|
|||
i have never met
a human that
didn’t contradict
him or herself in some way
never believe
that anyone is
just who they
say they are
it’s okay sometimes
to be a hypocrite
consistency
is for people who don’t feel
i have never met
a human that
didn’t contradict
him or herself in some way

Surface, Peeling
07:12
|
|||
off-center
like my
vision is skewed
there is
something
behind
the veil
of our
ordinary
sense perception
something else
that we can’t perceive
i know how
we can get there
beyond
the limits
of our senses
we can’t
trust our senses
too much
peeling
away
from reality
surface
peeling
off-center
like my
vision is skewed
there is
something
behind
