RAEIN/this life my cage
This life is your prison.
This is our golden prison.
This is the habit from which we'll hardly break free.
Tear our tied mouth.
We will get aware of our potential strength.
We shall rise again and the fear of what we can become will undermine your certainty.
Our prison will be yours.
RAEIN/on air
You are the star.
This is your show.
You know that we're on air.
Come on let's play this game push it.
Push the button and make me smile and make us smile you make me blind we'll love your bomb.
Airplanes are flying to find what could be the reason why.
Airplanes are flying and we seem to like them.
Airplanes are flying and I'm slowly losing my mental strength.
Airplanes are flying and I'm becoming completely enslaved.
FUNERAL DINER/welcome to my book collection
"We are an island," he says.
The other man smiles and replies, "we are indeed."
In deed and in word we fool ourselves something can be done
And nothing is clear or concise
As the transmission of reason and clear thinking are slowly weeded out
And the buried separation becomes the standard and everyday practice
The drawing in becomes more complete
With every downcast eye and mumbled word
Dead words on both sides and all the in betweens.
"Where do we stand?" echoes in the empty spaces
Never to be filled as the divisions continue
Being defined until everyone is the enemy
With the collapsing comes a lust for revenge destroying more,
Ourselves not the least as we carry out what was screamed for.
We forget screaming sounds weak over the rush of air
And constant destruction and tears and empty words.
