The Double
Words by Paul Streckfus
Music by Jorge Lara, Lino Max, Juan Ramos,
Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus
I saw my double in a doorway
He was talking to my friends in my way
I said we got to stop him
They thought I was trying to top him
Me,
I'm me
Not you
Searching
Searching for my shadow
It escaped me I could not follow
Without it I feel hollow like an echo
Hey Hey
No in-betweens
I'm me,
Not you
How could it be?
How could it be?
How could it be?
My shadow got free
I told my friends to be careful
Told my brothers and sister be careful
Told my parents be careful my boss
Be very very careful
My shadow got free
Got free
I'm not you
How could it be?
How could it be?
How could it be?
This facsimile
How could it be?
How could it be?
How could it be?
Don't counterfeit me
How could it be?
How could it be?
How could it be?
This facsimile?
How could it be?
How could it be?
How could it be?
My shadow got free

lack Market Hearts
Words by Paul Streckfus and Lino Max
Music by Jorge Lara, Lino Max, Juan Ramos, Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus
Across the lot you're smiling with the one you got
You bet, you met, you mot, you got you get you bought
And it feels like I've been eating cigarettes
But I don't choke not yet
Not yet not yet
New Art Girl's exit trick
Cathedral Boy in black tight jack
How I'm hit, I'm in white
Got to respect that act
Across the lot you're smiling with the one you got
This the secret history of my heart
Meet me on the floor
Maybe on the floor
Meet me in the flow
Refuge
Refute
Refuge
Refute
I'll get away from you
I remember I knew them better
What's been missing?
I knew them better
Wouldn't it be awkward?
Why bother? Why brother?
Afterwards Refuge
Refute Rescue Refuge Refute Refuge
I'll get away from you

Vaccine, Mercury Rises
Words by Paul Streckfus
Music by Jorge Lara, Lino Max, Juan Ramos,
Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus
Between my teeth,
painkiller pills
Deadens my fear

Door is ajar,

High pitch howl,

Vaccine,

Vaccine
Alabaster plaster
disaster natural
Quarantined mean

Sanity unsanitized
Mean streak freak out
left out vomit mouth
Vaccine
Mercury rises,
Mercury rises
Ah
I took a number,
I held my breath
Horrible slumber
It felt like death
My form is a line
between liquid and stone
I am a thin line
scratched into skin
and bone
Vaccine

Vaccine
Ah
Mercury rises
Mercury rises
Vaccine

Like a blanket of fog she comes
Look inside of your black bag for me

What you brought along for me?
What you got in there? Gimme

Gimme something
I got a fever
I got a fever

Pskylops
Words by Paul Streckfus
Music by Jorge Lara, Lino Max, Juan Ramos,
Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus
One track eye
I've got one very good eye for you
I've got one big red blood shot eye staring at you
One love to find behind tired lids
Do you think it can work?
I think my eye needs two to look into
Do you think it can work?
Do you think I'm a jerk?
Iced beverage goes down cold
Slick story untrue
the one that you told
No matter no matter to me
I've got some of my own
Thick slice
Cut one off the whole
She got the hands of a mole
She digs into my skin
Creates a little warm place to get comfy
Eating little bites of goodies taste nice
Let's get some din din din
I've got one
Very good
Eye
Staring
Straight at you
I've got
One
Big
Red
Blood shot
Eye
Looking
Looking for you

Brownie Hawkeye
Words by Paul Streckfus
Music by Jorge Lara, Lino Max, Juan Ramos,
Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus
I found my true love
I found my true love
I found my, I found my
I found my true love in the viewfinder
If you wanna know I blew my wish away
I couldn't stand to be without my true love
We lost our memories, we found each other
True love, viewfinder
The past is smashed on film to remind her
That she's my true love, that he's my true love
Technology unwind it
True love: I've got to find it
The past is smashed on film
We lost our valuables, our marbles
Our whole damn memories
Her name is Amnesia
Where are you? I miss you
I've got him in my sights now

WALKIE-TALKIE
BY GLORIUM
MUSIC BY GLORIUM
WORDS BY PAUL STRECKFUS AND LINO MAX
I'm walking in my sleep
I'm talking in the sleep
Head on my shoulders
Shoes on my feet
Astronaut material
Unknown objects coming towards me
Are you attracted or repelled?
North South East West East North South
Feet on my legs,
Teeth in my mouth
Astronaut tears
Space needle, space needle
Circle of friends saves me from irradiate danger
Which clue is your mnemonic me?
Circle of friends it goes on forever
Secret film roles on nocturnal screens
The mountain is so so steep
We crawl to you
Crawl to you
I'll crawl to you
I'm waking in my sleep
Talking in my sleep
I’m walking in my sleep
I’m tired of counting sheep
I”m talking in my sleep
I’m walking in my sleep
Astronaut material
Got to find a way to sleep somehow
Got to find a way to sleep somehow
Got to find a way to sleep somehow
Got to find a way to sleep somehow

Mother Machine
Words by Paul Streckfus
Music by Jorge Lara, Lino Max, Juan Ramos,
Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus
We bought this dead machine
Hoping it would make us come clean away
From our city of home and dust
It's made of chrome and rust
And we've already kissed ass
So I’ll tell you anyway
Got a couple of checks to pass
Before we make our getaway
Mother machine
Got our bags in hand
Got a map of the land
Got a gas tank full of sand
And a tin can
With wheels for motion
We’re loaded, we’ll travel the ocean
Play our noisey noise
for the scaley girls and boys of the sea
Use the eels
for our electricity
Good god got to get away
Mother machine
Mother machine
Make me seen
Get my clothes clean
Dream yourself a beautiful dream
Where all your friends
They is machines
The toaster, the radio, the tele-V
Take them to bed and plug into electricity
Electricity
I'm thinking about cutting loose
A runaway caboose
I'll do just what I choose
You've given me nothing I care to lose
I've taken nothing that I can lose
Except for
Except for
My machine
Don't wanna lose it,
Nah
My machine
My machine
My
My
My
My
Mother machine
Mother machine
Mother machine
Mother machine
Mother machine
Mother machine
Mother machine
Mother
Gonna leave our ties undone
Gonna head straight for the sinking sun
Talking about the west coast
This is the best
This is the most that we’ve ever done
Yeah
It was the most fun

My Wanderin Mt.
Words by Paul Streckfus
Music by Jorge Lara, Lino Max, Juan Ramos,
Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus
Stop sign where traffic
Never ends
Come sliding by my shadow
Want to make friends
But I got
No warm heart for
Your noisey chokin
Smokey place
That defines your race
From home to work
Office desk phone counter clerk
Got line one,
Line two on hold
Hands delt fast
This one I fold
Hands delt fast this one I fold
Invitation not handed down
To the game after five
End of the day card
Punched in a clock
Movin on past
The cars in line
Lookin at the lights
And streets and sign
No time for your doors
And windows of tint
No sweet minted taste
Of the great outdoors in sight
In this off ramp on
Are you gonna buy one
With your money
Given for your time at their place?
Your tv hours
Your mid-day naps
Television oven microwave
Counts them down
2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Here comes the bus
Here comes the bus
Put your feet on the line
Look straight ahead
Black ink please
Sign in red
Carry on your person
At all times
Surrender you have nine days
There are one million ways
To break the law
The stop sign the warning that you never saw
Get back in line
Get back on time
Don't be the last one speeding ahead
But follow the leader
Look straight ahead
When were you born?
How much do you weigh?
Eyes, hair, sex, address, and race
Swear it's the truth
The lie that you told
Finger prints flat, not rolled
Invitation
I run, I run, I run
Here comes the bus
My mountain's wandering
My mountain’s wandering
My mountain’s wandering
Here comes the
Here comes the
Here comes the
Here comes the
My mountain’s wandering
Here comes the bus
Here comes the rain
Here comes the
My mountain’s wandering
Put your feet on the line
Put your feet on the line
Black ink please
Sign in red
Surrender
You have nine days
There are one million ways
To break the law
The stop sign the warning
That you never saw
Get back in line
Get back on time
Get back on time
Get back

Future News From The Front Line
Words by Paul Streckfus
Music by Jorge Lara, Lino Max, Juan Ramos,
Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus
This won't hurt
One bit
Bite your lips
black and blue
Relax your muscles,
relax your mind
To cast a spell on you
All I need is my two hands
And teeth and tongue for talking
And brain and eyes
TRANSMIT
Don't get me wrong
Future news from the front line
I may be young but I have
A very long long tongue
Does it tell a truth or does it tell a lie?
One that entraps and surrounds
A single sound is all it takes
Flood fire famine earth-quake
Alright alright
Alright alright
Alright alright
Alright alright
Alright alright
Now it is night
It's time to fly
Unfold our wings
From under the protective shell
TRANSMIT
Don't get me wrong
I may be young but I have
a very long long tongue
Does it tell a truth or does it tell a lie?
One that entraps and surrounds
Casts a shadow as it unwinds
Coming back with news from a future time
Future news from the front line
The last great war was fought with the mind
I navigate right through like it was nothin
This is all the proof that you need
No written document
Or finger print paper on file
No no no nothing to ride
Nothing to write
The Insect Lord came down from the sky
She had ten legs
Just one big eye
Let's trade our places in line
It's time
It’s time
It’s time
It’s time
It’s time
TRANSMIT
One land-lover went straight through
The heart of the eye of the hurricane
Future news from the front line
Heading towards you in a straight straight line
I got our tickets punched ahead of time
Ins and outs all access pass
First and the last and the overcome
I am the only one to make it back

A cold spot like an inkblot
You hover and fade
Divine inspiration

Did we know each other
In a past life?
When are you coming around?
Leave me a sign

Rip-Off
Words by Paul Streckfus
Music by Jorge Lara, Lino Max, Juan Ramos,
Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus
Didn't mean what they told you
No guarantee what they sold you
Must've needed it bad

You gave them all your money
Didn't want to feel left out
Thought you'd be wealthy and happy
Now you're crappy and unhealthy
That's what it's all about
Rip off
Rip off
What I
What I said
Rip off
Got busted by the county
For sleepin in the alley
Community service hours
Over one thousand dollars
A court appointed lawyer
Who is your employer?
Do they treat you rightly?
or kill you day and nightly?
Rip off

Hardcore poser
Opens up a chain store

Words by Paul Streckfus
Music by Jorge Lara, Lino Max, Juan Ramos,
Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus
We drive drive drive drive
Drive drive drive all night just to get here
We're here for you, are you here for us?
Oh it feels so good to get outside of the bus
Now come outside now come alive
Slip on your shadow
Reach inside of yourself
Now put it on
Feels so good to come outside
I set my distant foot on your alien soil
You know my blood did not boil no no no no no no no
I found some oxygen.
It's my best friend
And I found you
Don't look right through me like I'm a ghost
Here I am for you
Can you hear me?
Here I am for you
Can you hear me?
Here I am for you

Electricidad
Words by Paul Streckfus and Lino Max
Music by Jorge Lara, Lino Max, Juan Ramos,
Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus
I'm doing time floating at sea
Counting the heads in front of me
Electricity
Something's gonna shock the fuck out of me
You're off of work again
And I'm doing this dizzy walk
I followed you until it gets dark
I threw up in the park
I've got a plug
and you're the socket
I'm so still you're in motion
What's got into your body?
Watching the currents swell in the ocean
Kiss me quick, electricity
Something's gonna shock the fuck outta me
I've got a plug and you're the socket

My Demolition
Words by Paul Streckfus
Music by Jorge Lara, Lino Max, Juan Ramos,
Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus
After they laid down the corner stone
As I lay in the street alone
I said hello
Then I buried it deep below
Then I blew it into light
The big bang in the middle of the night
That makes the city moan
I wanted to save every man woman and child
From the walls and nails all bricked up in the stack
Who said I bled when the whole forty fell?
An explosion like a liberty bell
Plate glass makes a deafening crack
Who calls this red stuff blood?
It's just worries running down my back
I can't even sleep, The task is heavy
I'm so damn hot for destruction
When they're in bed I find a construction
There's no reservation, I bust that erection
Landmines are salvation in my demoltion
Say a prayer on this day of destruction
The angel of death has risen to the surface
A dark thick loch entombed her cold and silent
But see she's smiling she's wearing gold
and she holds a trident above her head
Cities will explode like dandelions
Blossom and melt before our eyes
Before our eyes melt

This is the bottom line
Fearless showed his ugly face
Beautiful, it's beautiful
Yeah I've seen that before
uncountable times
Uncountable times
I've seen it
This is the hour to rebuild the jaws of resistance
I'm devoted to another cause
Break down the laws of power
Resistance
Power
Resist
These are violent days
Rage of youth, I want change
But I can't be afraid of the violence

Iced The Swelling
Words by Paul Streckfus and Lino Max
Music by Jorge Lara, Lino Max, Juan Ramos,
Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus
I've got a gut feeling about this one
I've got some gut feelings about this
There's something missing
And it's getting old
Cut me to pieces if you need to feel whole
Breaking that boundary
Now I'm growing
Breaking that boundary so you're cutting me down
It starts here
How about now?
Iced the swelling but it's not going down
Outside is the sun
How high is the sun?
I was as high as the sun
You're not the only one
I'm so sick of the sun
So tired of the sun
Do you think it's well lit?
It's not the only one
Am I willing to kill?
Would I kill this one?
Would I kill for this?
Am I willing to kill this one?
No
I'm in the middle stuck hard
The thick of the tar
It's time to pull out please don't stand in my way
What you gave me pulling me under
Let me glow like a sun or lock me away
It's a big enough crack, a thick enough space
Some light may seep in on my face
You keep me beneath the line of visibility
Did I kill this time wastefully?
We treat each other so tastefully

Coming in last
And there’s no control
Gonna crash land
Gonna lose my soul
Spinning I’m loaded
I’m ready to blow
Going so fast
To go so low
North is at the top
Feeling force of drop
The bottom is the stop
I picked up momentum,
I picked up speed
Losing everything by gaining the lead
A one-way ride down a slippery slide
All of my memories crash and collide
Dive-bomb,
Dive-bomb,
I’m on
I was the bullet shot down from the sky
Not sure why I ever thought to try
Not sure how I’m gonna live this through
Look out of my window
At the bottom it’s you
Dive-bomb,
Dive-bomb I’m alive, I’m on
Dive-bomb
Dive-bomb I’m alive I’m off and I’m on
North is at the top / Feeling force of drop
The Bottom is the stop

Dive-bomb I’m alive, I’m on
Dive-bomb I’m alive, I’m on
Dive-bomb, Dive-bomb
