They and Their Inventions-

-Chad Murdy-

Behind the doors of the mystery
Theater the empty hand
Holds the most illusions

Among the leaves of the
Virgin Forest the naked creature
Can claim the most inventions

As we witness the last wave
And walkabout for days
Don't look back now
Don't show you're afraid

On the blood covered ice
The last to fall through
Is the man who's down on all fours

In the dark of our victory
Is a mind as closed
As a pair of folding doors

Lying heavy-heavy lying
Lying heavy-heavy lying

Our revenge on life's
The opposite of suicide
And taking the swell of the stings

In the resisted light
We steal a new history
By clipping the grasshopper's wings

Our revenge on life's
The opposite of suicide
Our revenge on life's
The opposite of suicide

Repeat
