Ready To Erupt - Vulcan (Armstrong)

My blood is boiling, lightning fills the sky
The rain keeps falling, steam is rising high
I’ve finished toiling at the fire
I’m ready to erupt

My mind is restless and searching from within
My body arches and quakes will begin
This time, you’re paying for your sins
I’m ready to erupt

Feel me, I’m the heat beneath your feet
See me, I’m the fire that cooks your meat
Free me, and start to make your peace
‘cause your world will turn to cinder and your end will be complete
I’m ready to erupt


My hands are idle, but my intentions are good
If I cause destruction it’s not because I’m rude
Fire and brimstone are my fucking food
I’m ready to erupt

There’s some disruption in my function
mechanical contraptions, provoking my reactions
I love the Lady who rules in May
I’ll clear the path, she’ll have her way
And then we’ll start a brand new day
I’m ready to erupt

Change Will Come - Oya (Armstrong & Roschkov)


Although the end is now in sight

I fear the time is not quite right

For now, my gentle winds will blow

 

Hush My Lord, Change Will Come

Hush My Lord, Change Will Come

 

Clouds are fast over the land

Weather’s stranger every day

That’s just our planet’s ancient way

 

Chorus

 

Change is a constant thing you know

Only certainty will flow

Old will eventually go

 

Chorus


Destroyer of Worlds - Shiva (Owen, Armstrong & Roschkov)


Like the Phoenix I am born with the ashes of fate

I spring from what is burned and what blossoms again

I seek no death for death’s sake but for life

To soar from all pain, from the wreckage of gain


As if I were evil,

Destroyer of the Worlds

you will rise and fall without me

as your Destroyer


With fierce wild robes

and a beast at my side

With my half open eyes

I can see a new sky


As if I were evil,

Destroyer of the Worlds

you will rise and fall without me

as your Destroyer

 

The Garden is Overgrown - Gaia (Armstrong, Owen & Morrison)


Yes my love I know that you're not evil
you only strive for change
this ship, it isn't sinking
the deck chairs can still be re-arranged

Have pity on my creations
they've worked hard to stake their place
Show a little cheer for them
as they near the end of the race

They really are noble creatures
who aspire to my goals
suffer the little humans
as they try to wield control
Too little, too late.  We might as well wait
The garden is overgrown

Can you feel the satisfaction
as they fashion their own doom ?
Just a little more rope
and the end is coming soon

It's not what they intended
they're only trying to get by -
misguided and mismanaged,
with stars in their eyes

They really are noble creatures
who aspire to my goals
suffer the little humans
as they try to wield control
Too little, too late.  We might as well wait
The garden is overgrown

Suicide Seeds - The Green Man (Armstrong, Owen & Watson)

 

For a century Monsanto
has weighed the earth with pain
making saccharine & styrofoam
and even Agent Orange


They also specialize
in bovine growth hormone
and hey I hear they're breeding pigs
that only they will own


Give them your cow, give them your land
they'll sell you a bag of beans
give them your hard earned money
they'll sell you suicide seeds


Destroying other species
poisoning the soil
reaping massive profits
while the farmers toil

They've taken over the food supply
with GM seeds for crops
You get sued if you don't buy them
who will tell the bastards STOP !

Give them your cow, give them your land
they'll sell you a bag of beans
give them your hard earned money
they'll sell you suicide seeds


Perversions of Nature - Baphomet (Owen)


Look at humanity!
Vast, unbalanced, a cancer of insanity!
I who am male & female,
I both god & animal,
I who raise one arm to Chesed
And the other to Geburah
Say to you now – Look at humanity!


Sad, rapacious, a disease of insolence!
The flame between my horns
Burns with irresistible intelligence
And yet they choose to quench it
With their endless restless blindness
I who am bird & beast,
I both sexless & erect,
I who bear the Pentagram on my forehead
With its point of light so radiant
I cry to you now – Look at humanity!


Mad, irreverent, an illness of injustice!
But the enemies of the earth shall be divested,
And those who bear the pelt of the wild
& the ice of its silences will be the only remnants
Of a world self devoured!
I command you now– Look at humanity!


Gods of Love - Freya (Owen, Davies & Watson)


You think I've not known hate

but I have, I have

my spouse vanished after the wedding night

I thought he was dead then found him turned into a monster

no longer at my side

I know these feelings of revenge

but this is not how we will thrive


I sing you this song to still your hearts of war

there is nothing that cannot be healed

the Gods of Love are everywhere


You think I've not known sorrow

but I have, you know I have

when he disappeared in the darkness

I wept for many years

riding through the night

crying tears of gold

I know these feelings of despair

but this is not how we should rule


Chorus


You think I've not been crucified

by enmity or shame

but I've known the pain of shunning

I've felt the sting of names

for being magically apparelled

for being desired by all

I know these feelings of hurt

but with them we will fall


Chorus


Man is Greed - Mammon (Owen)


Yeah, they call me Big M, the god of green

And by green, they mean moula,

Not the grass and the trees –

 

Monsanto, McDonald’s, it’s all

Mammon if you please – so you

Stupid human race, get down on your knees

 

And pray to the deity who rules the world –

Who makes good slaves of your boys & your girls

By telling them BLING is what the whole thing’s

 

About – no they can’t live without it, they can’t live

Without their Gap and their Nikes, their Gucci

& their Fuel, their Diesel & their Levis – that’s

 

What rules the world – if you doubt it for a minute,

Just take a look around – my face is plastered everywhere,

The Green Man’s nowhere to be found –

 

No, it’s Mammon this, and Mammon that, man we

Love that Mammon guy – yeah I’m the reason earth is turning,

I’m the who & what & why – so don’t think that with your Bandaids,

 

Your eco this and eco that, you’re going to stop Mammon from growing,

From getting huge and stinking fat, cuz the dollar is your collar

And the bill is your sweet pill –Mammon’s got you cornered,

 

He won’t ever let you get your fill. So they call me Big M,

I’m the god of green, M-A-M-M-O-N  yeah, pleased ta meet ya,

Now you’re mine.



The Reluctant Devil - Satan (Owen)


Transformed into this

hellish thing of evil

When I was at the side

of the great majesty


The fire beneath their feet

The way they've created

the lake of fumes
and the flames beneath the burning world


Transformed into this

hellish thing of evil

When I was at the side

of the great majesty


I am but a symbol
of what everybody just might be

a slanderous image

of their own fear


When they cease to heed

the pulsing of the land

for the Reluctant Devil

is not a paragon of evil


Transformed into this

hellish thing of evil

When I was at the side

of the great majesty
