The Tea Party Transmission Lyrics
1.Aftermath

Desperate to take
Lost in its wake
Time slips away too soon

Pleasures of fear
Drawing us near
Where could we go from here

Waste what we want
We beg and we're bought
And nothing is wrong with us

Life in these veins
Godless and stained
Glimpses of hope exist

Slanted advance
Threatened by chance
Time slips away too soon

Waste what we want
We beg and we're bought
And nothings wrong with us

2.Alarum

I took a slide, slipping down a staircase
A Piranesian dream
My senses reeled, distorted by the darkness
I lit my way with a scream
And in the rave an alarum caused a
Cracked mirror
I got confused by the sound
I turned around and touched it from a distance
And then it fell to the ground

Loud cry from the shallows
Lust feeds on the fear
Walls crack under pressure
I think the end is getting near

And in my mind was the fury of a madness that consecrated the
dirt
I stumbled through the enigma of the reason and celebrated the
hurt
And then I found through an act of desperation
A subtle rip in the heart
I was seduced by the fear of devastation
And then it tore my apart

Oh no, nothing matters
When it takes me
When it rapes me, breaks me
Shakes me down

A quick escape from the edge of commination
I slept the night with my spleen
A vain excuse, I was searching for some answers
I broke away from the scene
Because after all animality's an instinct
And it's luxuria's slave
To taste the truth, it's a seizure of the senses
And it's a foot in the grave


3.Army Ants

Bring on, bring on the absolutes
A walk on the water will lead you to slaughter
No one will feel you
No one will feel you

Bring on, bring on the brave new world
In time to condition the slave to submission
No one will feel you
No one will feel you

All that I need is a way to deceive
The eyes of the ant are collides once again
I still shine on

Crawl on, crawl on your hands and knees
You're blind from the vision, the dark of decision
No one will feel you
No one will feel you

All that I need is a way to deceive
The eyes of the ant are collides once again
All that I need is a way to deceive
The eyes of the ant are collides once again
I still shine on!


4.Babylon

Now that the thrill of the massacre is over
Isn't it sweet when she sucks on your veins
I've waited so long

I roll back the stone just to see what I'm missing
Glimpses of grandeur now faced with defeat
I've waited so long

Now that your kingdom of Babylon's fading
Where will you turn when you can't find your soul
I've waited so long

Salvation's at hand, it's a matter of taste my dear
Lost in ideals that you found in the trash
I've waited so long

5.Emerald

Confess what you crave
A life without pain
You'd kill for the taste
But the hurt still remains

Still they don't know who you are
Just be still my emerald
I'll be waiting for you
Do exactly what you're told
I'll be waiting for you

Ashamed by the threats
You pierce the embrace
Afraid and alone
In a dark lonely place

Did you always want to be
Did they try to steal your soul
Did they hurt you with deceit
Can't you come in from the cold
Be still my emerald
I'll be waiting for you

6.Gyroscope

Come face to face with it
Pushed on your side
Lose all your self control
Worlds will collide

Inside out, you can't cope
My gyroscope
Witness the fall from grace
You shed your skin
Change if it pleases you
Just don't give in

Inside out, you can't cope
My gyroscope
Quiet now she said
You're waking up the dead
I cradle the excuse
I love with the abuse
I handle it with ease
It's a dignified disease
Slow down

Soul searching breaks you down
You'll never learn
Annihilate yourself
All things must burn

Inside out, you can't cope
My gyroscope

7.Psychopomp

You wanted this
So sad to see
The sweet decay
Of ecstasy

And you want it all
And you want it all

A frozen sun
Will guide you there
As shadows hide
The deep despair

And you want it all
And you want it all

I'll give you something more
And you'll fade away
One last kiss before
You fade away

So sleep tonight
In idle dreams
The pain will drown
Your silent screams

And you want it all
And you want it all

I'll give you something more
And you'll fade away
One last kiss before
You fade away
Lives you once adored
Will fade away
Lies you can't ignore
You soon repay
As you fade away!

And you fade away
And you fade away
And you fade away
And you fade away


8.Psycopump

You wanted this
So sad but true
The sweet decay of ecstasy
And you want it all

A frozen sun
Will guide you there
As shadows hide
The deep despair

I'll give you something more
And you'll fade away
One last kiss before
You fade away

So sleep tonight
In idle dreams
The pain will drown
Your silent screams

And you want it all
I'll give you something more
And you'll fade away
One last kiss before
You fade away
Lives you once adored
Will fade away
Lies you can't ignore
You soon repay
As you fade away

9.Pulse

I saw a face in the mirror
That made my blood run clear
I think I've waited too long

I went along for the ride
She complicated the slide
I went take her hand
I couldn't feel a pulse

Senseless is pleasure
Nothing's forever
The sooner you see
You can't deny me

I had a dream that within
A celebration of sin
We do a dance with denial

I only wanted a friend
To see the beautiful end
She went to take my hand
She couldn't feel a pulse


Senseless is pleasure
Nothing's forever
The sooner you see
You can't deny me

10.Release

I want the world to wake
I want to give you peace
I want to vindicate
You need to be released

Don't want to hurt you
I need to make you see
If I desert you
It's just to make you see

That I'm a man that's weak
And I'm a man that's lost
I gave it all away
To complicate the cost

Don't want to hurt you
I need to make you see
If I desert you
It's just to make you see
I'm not going to hurt you now
I need to make you see
If I desert you
It's just to make you see

I want you to be free
I want you to be free from me


11.Temptation

Driven by restrained desire
I want what I need
Shaking as her sex takes hold
I've lost all control
Temptation
Temptation

Drowning in a sea of rage
I taste the embrace
Helpless as it steals my soul
I've lost all control

Temptation
It never lets me down
Temptation
One foot in the ground

We exist in a world where the fear of illusion is real
And we cling to the past to deny and confuse the ideal
Once inside, we conceive and believe in a god we can't feel
I can't feel it, I can't feel it, I can't feel it

Destined by a fate so cruel
And drugged to delight
I'm Laughing as the lies unfold
I've lost all control

Temptation
It never lets me down
Temptation
One foot in the ground
Temptation
You satsify my soul
Temptation
I've lost all control


12.Transmission

We fear what we see in the distance
We're shattered by life's soft deceit
Enslave to our thoughts by our reason
Refusing to walk with the weak

Betrayed by the past's desolation
We slept listless nights by the shore
Searching for signs of salvation
Hoping to find something more

Tell me what I have when it all slips away
Tell me what I see when the light fades away
Tell me what I hold i the palm of my hand
Tell me what I feel because I'm trying
To understand
I'm sending Transmission

Confused by the weight of our virtue
we follow the paths of the slain
I silence we walk through the shadows
Embracing the pleasure of pain
Once again
