They Come To Me

about

Lyrics- Darren Moore
Music - Brian Delaney

lyrics

They come to me on bended knee where I can free them from reality
They come to me in the gutter where I can monitor many frequencies
They come to me at war with the now and their own sanity
They come to me with futures of dust, just another dependency

They come to me with progress reports but all I see are bodies burned
They come to me with targets achieved but all I see is blood and chances lost
They come to me with their cargo of dead and a history they scorn
They come to me with choral approval but all I see is cost

To live or die for a cause you have not first understood
A mound of habits, the ties that bind the endless extraction of blood,
The World is increasingly designed to depress us.
Happiness isn’t very good for the economy
A world of corporate consciousness, the unseen presence of victorious corruption

They come to me, pared down to need, the flywheel of society
They come to me with no hymns or ballads to relive the glorious past
They come to me that’s what keeps them within the bounds of sanity
They come to me and I tell them that happiness is revolutionary
They come to me seeking an upgraded existence
They come to me when the form of happiness is not good for business
They come to me from another galaxy another hallucination
They come to me with everything sagged in ruin, structural radiation
They come to me on bended knee where I can be with them for reality
They come to me with futures of dust, just another dependency
They come to me at war with the now and their own sanity
They come to me in the gutter where I can monitor many frequencies

Come join me in the gutter
I will not ask you to fight
No hymns or ballads to relive the glorious revolution
The past, and its cargo of dead
But it’s too late to do anything but mourn
Grind it into the flesh, lest we forget

from another galaxy

El Morta

Combining lyrical landscapes made from the residue of the remnants collected from a horrible past, the wrung out filth and leftovers of a postcovid world and melded, at times with a futuristic sound shaped based around our pharmacological age and other times taking a nostalgic trip through timescales our ancestors could only dream, ... more
