Pan Atomic X
by Eddie Gillis
I found my way to something new
Gonna be there in a spinning flash
I’ll give you all that you wanna do
I just hope you got the cash.
Come on, my way, come on.
Always on the outside looking in
Don’t open your window no more
I feel my chances are pretty slim
You always slam the door oh no!
Come on, my way, come on.
You’re tellin’ me that you’re gonna be mine
Just take back whatever you give
I’ll fall into the back of the line
I want the fruit but you forbid
Come on, my way, come on.
Gonna pack my case, cuz you set me free
You couldn’t even tell me why
I’ll think about you at a quarter to 3
Have a drink and a heavy sigh
Come on, my way, come on
Next time you find somethin’ new
Take a look at the lines in my face
You might see something that looks like you
Let it die without a trace
Without a trace
Not a trace

Open the gate and let me in
I can’t wait to be within
Your confines, your perfume
You’re divine, like the womb.
I got my scars too long to tell
I plot the stars, I know them well
I made my wish, and “I” was done
The rush of bliss, I’m overcome.
Out of steam on these rails
The grinding wheels, the vapor trails
The letters flow, I put them in
They stop and go, on paper thin
Look around, no look and see!
What are you saying, next to me?
What are you bringing to the feast?
Beauty is singing to her Beast.
In the cage, rattletrap
My hometown is painted black
I got the blues over you
I begged my muse what to do
She replied with a grin
Open them wide, and let me in.

Dance Eva Dance
04:02

|
There was a night so vast and full of stars
That the explosion rent the fabric
Of the lonely watcher below.
And in the treeless waste of the curving dunes
The distance increased between the one and the other.
Sliding through fingers that helplessly grasp
At a fragment of time, a glimmer of light,
No answer to the question that hung in the air,
And disappeared into the night.
And I waited, and I wondered, as the voice of the wind
Took my last breath away and extinguished the day
And I lit a great fire for the camp
For tonight we celebrate and we dance with the snake
And the dawn is not far away
The dawn is not far away.
I lit a great fire for the camp
To cleanse it and keep it alive
Till the blood was absorbed, and the triangle gone
And the spirits had vanished again.
I relied on them once, and I saw in the flames
The illusion of Fire and Water
My thoughts were but flickers, my Reason a lie
And I searched for a snake I could dance with.
We dance in our folly ‘neath a blanket of stars
That glow in the dark like a child’s plaything
We laugh at the Gods as we dare to embark
On a journey that takes us in circles.
In the bliss of the moment, we cannot believe
Our paces will not be remembered.
The sands will be shifting, the waters receding
Our thirst will increase by the hour.
But onward we dance for we must celebrate
And Eva will charm the slithering Snake
And the dawn is not far away.

The River (de Troit)
05:12
|
|||
|
The river's rushing, I can't get across
The flow is crushing, my nerve is lost.
A world of prisons I can't escape
I take the hammer and try to change
I smash illusions, and my mirror too,
I crack the windows to let in the blues
I find no solace, trapped by the walls
My tears are flowing like waterfalls.
This river's flowing from paradise
The chill is blowing, it turns to ice
My motion frozen, immobilized
The path I've chosen is memorized.
It bent so softly below the trees
It gently offered the slow release
Now there's no laughter within my heart
I've seen disaster since we're apart.
The river's running, the sun is red
The night is corning to wake the dead
The crying spirits that sound toots sweet
The inspiration is striking me
I wake and wonder just how you feel
The ring of thunder like bells that peal
Their tortured voices are calling your name
There are no choices, it’s all the same.

You slipped on a shingle
I’m digging a well
Just when it hurts.
Overtake and underrate,
She’s held together with crinoline
The hill is hollow
The hill is hollow
My compass is pointing to a map
How many jars does it take?
Can we end this home
Can we end this home?
Slicked back heart attack
It smells so lonely in here.
I can’t breathe,
Where’s my bottle of hydroxygen?
Hydroxygen!
Hydroxygen!
Slip it, slip it, slip it
Leave the switch alone!
Leave the switch alone
Leave the switch alone
Leave the switch alone
I told you!!!

Rosy Cross
02:58

I guess I got to live
but how can I forgive
Everything you’ve done
with your Other One?
Everything you say
changes day-to-day
Your rationality
is invisible to me
You hide the Truth, you dyed your roots.
I’m ready for the tomb,
I hope I make it soon
I got the Rosy Cross,
I’m sufferin’ the loss
I don’t understand,
you canceled all the plans
The tapes are all erased,
and I’m so out of place
You hide the Truth, you dyed your roots.
Even though it’s hard,
I’ll draw another card
Even though I’m burned,
I’ll take another turn
I got the six of Disks,
I calculate the risks
Of cleaning up the mess
that’s covering Success.
You hide the Truth, you dyed your roots.
You know I’d rather die,
than listen to your lies
Every other day you’re
changin’ what you say
You burned the Rosy Cross,
and you don’t give a toss
And I can see the end,
I lost another friend.
You hide the Truth, you dyed your roots.

Blue-lidded Daughter
03:05
|

|
Did you drink of the water of the loveliness?
Blue-lidded daughter, damsel in distress.
I received your message, it said nothing’s known
How quiet is the power behind your throne.
I had the arms to hold you so close to me
You forgot what I told you, you have no memory
And now the Main Attraction is done at last
Too many imperfections to cloud our past
See the Lord of Strength and Silence
Become like a child
When his Word is finally whispered
The virgin is defiled
By his double wand of power
He moves like Mercury
With a message from the heavens…
There is no misery.

Sophia

Well we took our chances
And we tossed the dice
And we heaped the altar
With our sacrifice.
And we wore the jewels
And we burnt perfumes
And we kept the secrets hidden
In our empty room.
I gave you time to change your story
Make your mind up fast
You just had to steal my glory
Oh I know this can’t last.
My thoughts don’t seem to matter
While you re-work the plans
I’m at the top of the ladder,
You are nowhere man.
In the naked brilliance
Of the night-sky
See the daughter of sunset
In splendour and pride
See her way out…
Is your way in
Her figure by the window,
A body without Sin.
She brings her wisdom
In the hour of need
I call Sophia
A moon that bleeds

Dogs in the Oven
04:07
|

|
Nothing is the way it used to be
Ever since you turned to look at me
I’d like to think your wink is erotic
But I’m not quite that quixotic.
Why’d you tell me you would be my bride?
When you took your vows you must have lied.
Cuz you don’t give a damn about true lovin’
You just want my Dog in your Oven
I bet you thought you’d catch me unawares
But I can hear you creeping up my stairs
The rhythm of love is so exotic
It’s enough to make a sane man turn psychotic
You lied and cried ‘there’s no one after me’
And then you tried to use witchcraft on me
But I’m not gonna join their cult or your coven
I just want my Dog in your Oven.

Oh – I breathe
Through a broken reed.
O my god!
How I loved you from afar
I drew near
And you fled away into fear.
Oh – I breathe
Through a broken reed.
I gave chase,
And I finally found your trace
As I feared,
You had nearly disappeared.
Oh – I breathe
Through a broken reed.
Now I rave
At the site of your watery grave
And I wait
For the night to make my escape.
Oh – I breathe
Through a broken reed.
I am Pan.
I am more than a mortal man.
Ah but Death!
I can only offer a breath.
Oh – I breathe
Through a broken reed.

In the perfumed air - He recites the prayer
Hail! Great Mother
Thy birth is not uncovered
Hail! Great Goddess
Within the doubly hidden Underworld
Thou Unknown One!
Hail! Great Divine One
Thy garment not unloosened,
O unloose, they garment!
Hail! The One Hidden,
My way is not given
Of entrance into her
Come! Receive Thou
The soul of Lord Osiris
Protect it, within they two hands

I smell the roses, the graveyard is near
Two thousand paces, I now feel the fear
Why do these people just stand there and stare?
A demon moves through them and still they don’t care.
I hope you’ll stay with me here
My madness won’t hurt you since my logic is clear
Do I upset you when I speak with the dead?
I think that there’s danger ahead.
The gate is open, the doorway is clear
The journey’s over, do I see a tear
Dig that hole deeper so no one will know
That I’m locked in the shadows, with nowhere to go.
I hope you won’t walk away
My visions won’t hurt you they have nothing to say
I see you standing with flower in hand
I know that I must leave this land.
The priest is leaving, I don’t hear a sound
Only the silence is moving around
How could this happen, no warning at all
Where are the angels, why don’t they call?
I hope you’ll banish this dream
My stare won’t hurt you, but I hear you scream
Cold and dark winter the snow will descend
I hope that this is the end.
