Cold Open 00:50

Garmonbozia 02:50
Air locked, but somehow I get by I wonder if I’ll ever disappear Lately I never go outside There’s nowhere else I’ve ever been but here Drifting high above the ground Screaming out but never making sound Waiting on this cosmic throne In this massive kingdom I am all alone Watching all their lives play out Never got what that was all about
3.
Dirt Episode 05:02
Down below no one knows Which way’s up or the things I feel Surface life blinds my eyes I’ll ascend, leave by drilling deep Well it’s been wrong for a long, long time No one gets why I’m stressed Nothing left, so I guess channel down With my bare, with my bare hands Up above, loss for love Fertile ground bare your mystery Down below, great unknown As I claw for a world unseen No one gets why I’m stressed Nothing left, so I guess channel down With my bare, with my bare hands Channel down ‘til the bone’s sand

Scattered notes, your favorite dress The tattered shoes you wore out in school A magazine between debris A treasure trove, mementos of you A ghost, I must have seen a ghost From long ago These years, they haven’t been so kind Still, what a find Underneath these broken machines I saw you Well preserved in chapters of dirt So close, you used to sleep so close An age ago These years, They haven't been so kind Still, what a find
5.
Cyberbeard 07:01
Avast those marooned On the Concorde IX I am the captain She’s a man-o-war Navigate the void across the galaxy Cast aside your woes As we chart the sea, they hold no currency Headlong through each wave Danger at each turn, but freedom guaranteed Channel down, underground Then, they say, the captain will appear To get us all out of here Aboard, aye aye, his orders we’ll abide Legendary Infinity Deep below the ground, above the sky Other worlds, stars like pearls A universe awaiting us outside Take us away from here, Cyberbeard We must escape the Hexendoplex Living like we’re half alive Oh, what I’d give to reach the other side That cosmic light is in our sights We set our course, we soar above the tide

The Audience 04:30
Whispers up and down the halls, a minister set to fall Hungry for an empty seat at the feast Flags at half mast, at last he’s disposed Now’s my chance to advance Hear the news, his death resounds Hear ye neighbors, gather round (Wonder who’ll take his place) Pastor, pastor bless his soul (One day you’ll say “my grace”) Bells alight now hear the Win the court with etiquette, but coins will make my case Conciliate the electorate, cement my rightful place Hear the news, his death resounds Hear ye neighbors, gather round (I know who’ll take his place) Pastor, pastor bless his soul Bells alight, now hear the toll (One day you’ll say “my grace”) Here on this day, I do proclaim He is worthy, now put your hand on this book Repeat after me, “I with this seat Will uphold the tenets of our society” [Society] has cast me out again (Why can’t he just move on) Thinking this might be the end (Pity on his poor soul) Someone’s in my rightful place (And we love him)
8.
Give me some time, I’ll change your mind Give me the space, I’ll take to flight Give me a plan, I’ll get inside Give me respect when I survive, a home of my own Just give me some time I’m just a face, no pedigree I’ll rise above what you expect from me A trebuchet, my ticket up (Will he come down or fall amok) When I return they’ll fill my cup (No way, good luck) Anything to prove you wrong Bon voyage, the crowd just looks on Wave goodbye, I’m on my way Think of me next time you say Give me some time Just give me time

A boy who walked alone Deciphered a tome It told him how to leave, Transcending this machine Unborn Conform You’ll never be more Your history erased Barely a ghost Rooted in the veins, It’s rusted out remains He hoped to make it lift, This interstellar skiff His foot off the brakes, He blasted into space Nothing endlessly, But finally he could breathe Now born This form I’m destined for more I’ll make like a ghost My story starts now A legend is born They say he’s a Reborn Transformed I’ll sail evermore The legend is told, A ghost in my wake
