nightside on venus
i'm late for everything
scour caustic polemics
to give me angel wings
not today life i don't have time for this
just trying to live life right, here in the mist

there's a world between us
there's a saturn ring
there's a dying winter
in an eternal spring
eddies on an information sea
angel wings at war with entropy

superpositions
of the mind and heart
midnight distractions
keeping us apart
it's not just that life is so damn short
it's that we waste so much of it

if wishes were fishes
then we'd all cast nets
burn all our bridges
earn our regrets
i'd take a bullet for you but you shouldn't be the one
to be pulling the trigger while you aim the gun

nightside on venus
i'm late for everything
scour caustic polemics
to give me angel wings
not today life i don't have time for this
just trying to live life right, here in the mist

love's intravenous
a plasma full of bliss
like little liquid jesus
can't cut it from your wrist
it's a little secret for the mad
he's got the goods, and the goods are all bad

A new psychedelic folk song! (Or is it progressive folk? Or freak folk?)

Animation from Plato's Allegory of the Cave (animated version)
