lyrics

IGNORANT MALIGNANCY FORBODE UNTIMELY DOOM
ECHO CHAMBER DOOR WAS LABELLED:
“ONLY STANDING ROOM”
GOING BACK TO BALTHAZAR
NO PROMISE OF RETURN
HE GAVE A SILENT SIGNAL
INSISTING HE COULD LEARN
SHAPES AND COLORS, EVEN SOUNDS
THE EXPERIENCE OF BEING FOUND
TOOK YEARS AND YEARS, AND EVEN NOW
I STRAIN MY NECK TO HEAR
 
THE FIRST THING YOU MUST DO MY SON IS LEARN TO COUNT FROM NONE TO ONE
NOW FROM THIS PLACE YOU RUN
I’M DONE EXPLAINING
YOU PLACE DOWN LINES
I’LL FILL THEM IN WITH COLOR, SO TO SPEAK
WERE YOU EXPECTING FUN? HOW MEAK. SHOULD I EXPECT COMPLAINING?

ALL I ASK IS THAT YOU SACRIFICE YOUR VAIN ADDICTIONS

I FIND NOTHING MORE REPULSIVE THAN THESE WEAK AFFLICTIONS
WITCH DOCTOR OR MEDICINE MAN CAN’T WRITE YOU THESE PRESCRIPTIONS
JUST STAND BACK AND WATCH THIS IS THE YEAR THAT YOU BEHOLD THE OVERMAN
 
IF I SAY I GET IT, IS THAT ME GETTING YOU? IS THAT YOU GETTING ME? CUZ I THINK YOU’LL AGREE, YOU DON’T SEE WHAT I SEE
YOU REALLY DON’T SEE WHAT I SEE
 
IF I SAY I HEAR YOU, IS THAT YOU REACHING ME, OR IS THAT ME REACHING YOU?
IF YOU DIDN’T ASK, WHAT ELSE CAN I DO
 
DRY AND HOT, GETTING THIRSTY
IS THIS TOO RISKY? FEELING MAKING YOU MISTY FROM
TRYING NOT TO WANT BAD THINGS FOR BAD PEOPLE
YA I’M TRYING NOT TO WANT BAD THINGS FOR BAD PEOPLE
TRY NOT TO WANT BAD THINGS FOR BAD PEOPLE

Fox Heavy Portland, Oregon

Joe, Sam, Bennett, Tom and their trusty spirit fox/muse, Balthazar, find normal life has begun spinning into chaos. A rapidly aging narcissist with a predilection for calculated turmoil finds himself at the helm and positions himself at odds with formerly strangled-silent minorities. An invisible health crisis preys on the collaterals of ignorance & greed. Balthazar says "play for each other" ... more
