Harvest your disarray We're better this way Fools in disguise Your mask melts and cries Feel discouraged Search your mind So malnourished Seek in time Like flies to a flame Your rotting thoughts Campaign into night Darkened the guiding light Paid to attend Laugh and pretend Push rewind Now we won't mind Phantoms at bay They keep us in chains Break this dawn The shades are drawn Cog in machine This cold dream Hands of slight Reveal our pride
2.
A mistake Break my drift Go without Afterglow On repeat Can't compete Broken thoughts Count the cost Fits and starts Fits and starts Piss in fire Won't inspire Passion less No desire Your purpose is so vague and really unnverving Your resolve is fleeting and always leaves What ails us is in us Grow the old Bury new Your purpose is so vague and really unnverving Your resolve is fleeting and always leaves So many words so little to trust Call another cab and open up an orange Crush Fuck you B.F. Skinner

Festivus 03:04
Lights chastizing bright Strung out on the everglow Silent night strapped between the reigns Damned to the horror daze, remain Bleeding contempt for the mainstream Nostalgia is a horse from hell If you couldn't tell This festivus gets the best of us Every single time A stranger gazing in at this Dim tinsel town Bridges and boats and mostly human things River is frozen over Where resentment flows Who knows where the hole goes Round and round this broken town
4.
Cut down to size Clear smoke signs The new design Paradise in flames Built on roots and names Old growth beneath our feet A new world is coming down Light the match Just to watch it burn Truth in lies Fire and flies No alibies Right has been left up to down We don't know if we really need it From the ashes dawns a phoenix
5.
Maze 04:24
Miles in between us and all of our captured sky marbles So sick of the fool's omniverse You in reverse, you in reverse Pardon the guilty party for frivolous feelings Rage against the burning of the light Break through the shroud of night Hover above this mental break Why did I enter this maze A witching hour Nothing is sacred Trapped in a maze Of mental cues Wall yourself in Call yourself out
6.
Nightlife 05:19
The night life is the right life
7.
The infinite mirage This monster morality Inside you and me We mirror each other's misery And sifting illusions The undertaken man Mired in his awful plan Patterns in the sand Fall into windswept lands Side lined by love's restraints Phantoms of former days are here to stay Facewasted day on the horizon, a dim glow Rational and sober rays The sun's hateful glare is blaring overhead Shed my shadow, hollow instead Devil's face is etched in stone These solemn entanglements will leave you alone Stale mating in this sandy crevice Heat sink into this cold and lonely menace We bend and sway with the sand eating away Our scraped out and hollow bones
8.
Patience 01:58
9.
Pink Phase 04:11
Ghosts of the old ways They cloud up and cover in haze Depths of darkness below Threatens to swallow me whole This pink phase It washes away This pink phase Erase the pain A deep dark abyss inside Cracks across the broken ice Drifting spectrums on a maker's bliss Are manifold and endless A silhouette in a formless void Content in binding Cut down and destroyed Weird your way into this empty minding Whoa is us Rearrange the stage Your nothing face A role to play I'm drawing blanks
10.
We all undead sleepwalking in the night Down dark alleys and in your front yard A shooting star streaks by and goes darkness No one watching Caught in a loop of misfortune We beg again Removed from the emerald shadow Tent flapping in the wind A flag hoisted high We march by, this death parade In front of your empty endless ways Birds whisper their song in a code that no one knows My life revolves around this bottle Jagged glass sculptures of frozen and broken things Beneath the ice a life stirs inside
11.
Cueball 02:34
Spent your life getting knocked around You bounce around from one day to the next You can't believe how it got to this You've gone astray Life ain't nothing but a passing dream Here one day and gone the next Like a shadow of a cloud We race along The man with the million dollar voice One is one and two is too And what is love if it ain't the truth Fleeting and falling and failing until We all fall down Shadows lengthen and creep ahead In the waning light This magic hour is fading fast Into this endlessness We stand and stare At this abyss and It stares back Words are so meaningless So what can you say About existence and what it means to be
12.
Dark Room 04:41

about

Jesus on the Moon Puyallup, Washington

Jesus on the Moon is a collection of lo-fi songs I've been recording in basements, garages, and bedrooms since 2005. Recently, Derek Reed joined the ranks and, with the help of a drum machine, we've started to bring the songs to the stage.
