Zeus In Orbit

by Hello Whirled

/
1.
Intro 00:44
open the curtain for this magic show lights will be spilled and secrets will blow your mind away with gravedigging honor and brand-name loyal trickery you’ll watch the illusions dangle about and you’ll leave never having thought about the meaning of it all now let me introduce the star
2.
she speaks to a lonely mountain it’s awfully cold these days he stands on the peak alone takes a lot to jump down she screams in the hopes he hears her he’s paramount to the cause he hopes he can ignore her and freeze to death white metal clad she’s trying to be glad she found him but you lose that charm missing half of your arm in an avalanche he’s feeling rocky today and hopes she can go away a land of zen inside his head violet as his frostbite a minor cold meets hurricane winds and that’s their heaven meet an arguing couple and it’s well well past 11 grounded somehow in figure but their words, they carry knives they want to get past this but they want to stay alive they’re paramount and lost they’re power mountain lost

we talked to Zeus in orbit about omniscience he said it’s lonely out there cause no one invites him to their conversations it must be miserable, god listening everywhere it’s a built-in surveillance state when the father is everywhere watch all the little humans run you never have time for the kids we talked to Zeus in orbit about his deadbeat ways he never sees his children kid gods run away
4.
when you find god on your patio count your needle stars luck is on your side tonight when your kids have the lawn darts they’ll be seeing needle stars and you’ll awake to find growth memory pulls at every heartstring and your veins headstrong illusion strawberry kiwi love down all the zealous lines eye opening precision in every needle time slept in front of a tunnel found the light at its end and it looked back lept in front of a pickup life flashed before me ignored me
5.
like skydivers we fast approach ground like skydivers we circle around head up chin down like academic scholars nothing new is found every sense on high every burned stick bright light sky, bury us in heat snow where the west ones cannot go light sky, bury us in heat snow and the east ones cannot throw it back
6.
what’s the fucking matter bitter that your friends got big why on earth are you surprised they’re easy on the ears and know how to work a crowd it’s all performance science doesn’t mean you can’t sing along might as well stop moping and watching from afar a problem often remedied by coming along
7.
grass grows in limbo today mist over the horizon blaring signal source unknown figure obscured but at least I’m not in limbo alone you’re my resident daisy cutter everything in my life, blown to bits you’re my resident one another right up to the end in our limbo shit shapes, buildings I’ve seen before here yet I don’t know where grayscale, monochrome too far out to locate home even leaning on its walls you never hear me call is this a way to exist? blink and reset, never missed grass grows how come? I don’t know misty days forever how come I can’t let you go?
8.
Dust 02:17
as time drips down like rain on a windshield like static falling snow we reflect upon ourselves a light wash over scrubbing behind the ears and the tires we’re so tired we are all dust in the grand scheme vice and lust nothing they mean we are all dust in the long term we will make mistakes and will never learn one more discovery find this last piece for me one more epiphany of forward momentum

about

Presentable outtakes from "Skin At 15 Degrees". "Dust" and "Zeus In Orbit" probably could have been on the album but I thought they stuck out a bit too much.
