Fragile Today

Can you really tell what time it is?
Can you tell if it’s a month ago?
Do you walk into a yesterday?
Have you lost a today?
Have you tried to be an honest man?
Have you lied about the things you can?
Make a mountain of your ice and hate...
Fragile Today
Are you sorry what you gave away?
Can you choose to wait ‘till yesterday tomorrow is the one to pay!

Indivisibility never did define a country
Seeking its’ identity from emerging nations
Pyramid insanity stamped upon our currency
makes us worth that extra length
in nonsense is strength!
I wonder who can lie the best?
So we fight for children’s’ minds
with any slogan we can find
making up what sounds the best
lining up our latest conquest
Pledge allegiance can’t you see?
I’ll whore you ‘till you vote for me!
Party time for those who find sycophants control their mind!
Party time for those who find three piece suits control their mind!

Salem 1692

Deaths confession waits for those
Hideous lies remain untold
Heaven sent a daemon bold...so cold
Giles called her witch
Salem 1692
I hung 26
Broke their crucifix
Deaths confession waits for me
Hideous lies remain for thee
Heaven sent the daemon me...make you bleed.

Losing it All
04:42

When the answer you give
causes 20 more questions to live
and the tide that once washed it away
leaves you lost and confused every day
What can you do when that feeling finds you?
Where can you stay to be free from the pain?
Who can you call when you’re losing it all?
When all hope takes a leave
and the dark becomes all you can see
as the pit you walk calls out your name
what’s the point of still playing this game?
When you know it’s around
just a thought you have brings you way down
Every stranger you see
hurts your eyes, please stop looking at me
When decisions are played
and you’re scared of mistakes you could make
Don’t come back to today
what you’ve done can’t be changed anyway
When you get what you want
but can’t smile and feel you’re done
As your goals become truth
better find a new way to be you
What can you do when that feeling finds you?
Where can you stay to be free from the pain?
Who can you call when you’re losing it all?

The winter sang lullaby lullaby
I can no longer be what they’d like to believe
as if games we had played had spirited the age
If this smile were a porcelan bell to be rung
then our fortunes would merit this melody sung
Sometimes water can slow and grow bitter with age or betray your eyes forming icecycles of hate...

Walking, watching, feeling, misty night sea like me
When will you understand?
Circles of sea birds painting desert sand, spelling pretend words
When our time has come around
Stop to wash our future down
can’t be sitting sad
nursing times we thought we had
Living, waiting, finding
lost time nursery rhyme
When will you take my hand?
Mask wearing leopards
lead the masquerade
posing as dancers
When our time has come around
Stop to wash our future down
can’t be sitting sad
nursing times we thought we had
If our days come to an end
one last letter I must send
Dear Santa — Northern pole
Do you sometimes feel old?
Wond’ring, being, list’ning
swirl pie squirrels cry baby
When will you make a stand?
Sweetheart Lestat
Raisins in your hand
Forever love you...

Spy Game
04:25

Moon at 11, tide at 1:10
Ticket to nowhere, passport of lies
Move in a jet set, devil—may—care
Playing a spy game, wink of an eye
Deep undercover, ministry mole
Under disguise identity crisis
Hiding allegiance could save your life
Code blue for trouble, red means abort
Synchronize watches, second hand lies
Safe house addresses — secretive knock
Tell me the pass word, say no surprise
Hidden revolvers, silencers speak
Deep throats & trench coats meeting in subways haunting your dreams invading your nights
Trust in no contact, making no friends
Second hand living, shadow thick life
Keep one eye open, sleep when you can
Ducking for cover, waiting for light
Taking a powder, tapping a line
Never retires no golden watches
You’ll never see a rest home for spies!

Mutiny in Jonestown Washington
Influenced by classic 70's progressive rock bands like King Crimson, Van Der Graaf Generator & Genesis - along with late
60's psychedelia from The Beatles, Procol Harum & Pink Floyd (with a little 70's Black Sabbath thrown in for good measure), Mutiny in Jonestown has always sought to take these influences and synthesize them into something new.
The band has released 42 albums since 1987.
