TRUTH ESCAPES YOU

L1aR
Henry Rollins

You think you’re gonna to live your life alone
In darkness
And seclusion
Yeah I know
You’ve been out there
Tried to mix with those animals
And it just left you full of humiliated confusion
So you stagger back home
And wait for nothing
But the solitary refinement of your room spits you back out onto the street
And now you’re desperate
And in need of human contact
And then
You meet me
And you whole world changes
Because everything I say is everything you’ve ever wanted to hear
So you drop all your defenses and you drop all your fears
And you trust me completely
I’m perfect
In every way
Cause I make you feel so strong and so powerful inside
You feel so lucky
But your ego obscures reality
And you never bother to wonder why
Things are going so well
You wanna know why?
Cause I’m a liar
Yeah I’m a liar
I’ll tear your mind out
I’ll burn your soul
I’ll turn you into me
I’ll turn you into me
Cause I’m a liar, a liar
A liar, a liar

I’ll hide behind a smile
And understanding eyes
And I’ll tell you things that you already know
So you can say
I really identify with you, so much
And all the time that you’re needing me
Is just the time that I’m bleeding you
Don’t you get it yet?
I’ll come to you like an affliction
And I’ll leave you like an addiction
You’ll never forget me
You wanna know why?
Cause I’m a liar
Yeah I’m a liar
I’ll rip your mind out
I’ll burn your soul
I’ll turn you into me
I’ll turn you into me
Cause I’m a liar, a liar
Liar, liar, liar, liar

I don’t know why I feel the need to lie
And cause you so much pain
Maybe it’s something inside
Maybe it’s something I can’t explain
Cause all I do
Is mess you up and lie to you
I’m a liar
Oh, I am a liar

If you’ll give me one more chance
I swear that I will never lie to you again
Because now I see the destructive power of a lie
They’re stronger than truth
I can’t believe I ever hurt you
I swear
I will never to you lie again, please
Just give me one more chance
I will never lie to you again
I swear
That I will never tell a lie
I will never tell a lie
No, no
Ha ha ha ha ha hah haa haa haa haaa
Sucker
Sucker!
Oh, sucker
I am a liar
Yeah, I am a liar
Yeah I like it
I feel good
Ohh I am a liar
Yeah
I lie
I lie
I lie
Oh, I lie
Oh I lie
I lie
Yeah
Ohhh I’m a liar
I lie
Yeah
I like it
I feel good
I’ll lie again
And again
I’ll lie again and again
And I’ll keep lying
I promise

Pity this monster, Manukind

Human Behaviour
BJORK

If you ever get close to a human
And human behaviour
Be ready to get confused
There's definitely, definitely, definitely no logic
To human behaviour
But yet so, yet so irresistible
And there's no map
They're terribly moody
And human behaviour
Then all of a sudden turn happy
But, oh, to get involved in the exchange
Of human emotions is ever so, ever so satisfying
Oh oh, and there's no map
Human behaviour, human
Human, human behaviour, human
Human, human behaviour, human
Human behaviour, human
And there's no map
And a compass
Wouldn't help at all
Human behaviour, human, human
Human behaviour, human,
Human behaviour, human,
Human behaviour
There's definitely, definitely, definitely no logic
Human, human
Human behaviour
Human.
There's definitely, definitely, definitely no logic
Human, human, human, human.

ZERO ZILCH NADDA

What the fuck is the problem here? Power Rangers are killing old folks? Whats next Scooby Doo's on crack?

Like shit isn't strange enough. Porn is a billion dollar industry despite the fact that the girls being used are blind to it.

No really I enjoy the meth weekends drunk with strangers and all the cameras....its oh sooooo glamorous.

I think my depression is easing up...I no longer feel like smashing in my skull each and every second, now its only every other minute.

Tobacco companies are eyeing children to kill for profit....now thats enlightened! But lets focus on other things....mainly sports.......ya sports....How was that fucking game last night eh sporto?


Henry Rollins
LOW SELF OPINION

I think you got a low self opinion man
I see you standing all by yourself
Unable to express the pain of your distress
You withdraw deeper inside
You alienate yourself
And everybody else
They wonder what’s on your mind
They got so tired of you
And your self ridicule
They wrote you off and left you behind

You sleep alone at night
You never wonder why
All this bitterness wells up inside you
You always victimize
So you can criticize yourself
And all those around you

The hatred you project
Does nothing to protect you
You leave yourself so exposed
You want to open up
When someone says
Lighten up
You find all your doors closed
Get yourself a break from self rejection
Try some introspection
And you just might find
It’s not so bad and anyway
At the end of the day
All you have is yourself and your mind
The self hatred that blinds you
Binds you grinds you keeps you down
The world falls down around you
You build up walls around you
You wear disgust like a crown

If you could see the you that I see
When I see you seeing me
You’d see yourself so differently
Believe me

I know the self doubt that runs inside your mind
I know the self that treats you so unkind

If you could see the you that I see
When I see you
You would see things differently
I assure you

The world's largest frozen peat bog is melting

When man realizes he can't eat money it will be too late.

We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children.
Indian Proverb

Many would have you believe that the earth is not being altered by mans industrial activities. This is a lie. Many say nothing is changing on earth because paid scientists deem it, but in actuality science is failing to acknowledge truth because many scientists are paid to create "facts" which show otherwise. Their failure does not reverse melting poles or changing global temperature patterns. Their limited perception is simply motivated by money. Like too many pages in history the failure of a nation is last revealed to those who caused the implosion.

Canadian Legal Systems Moves Against Methamphetamine.........FINALLY

Tales of horror caused by a drug that has been around since the 1960's. Why is it only now, 40 years after methamphetamines first appearance that such a soul consuming drug has been targeted by the government? Well your a little late but nonetheless the time has come. There still may be hope.....maybe.......not........what are the long term affects to these child addicts?

Crack cocaine raveges the brain with long term damage to serotonin production and it is said that still today 2.2% of American high school seniors have tried it. This astounding fact is made even more frightening when one realizes how prevalent it is in society.


During the 1980's & 90's foreign nations actively exported drugs to North America for profit. The net result is the undermining of our society. Cocaine and heroin are prime examples. Today however we have organized gangs i.e.: bikers, mafia, etc.... creating drugs from within our society and achieving the same net effect. Now not only are we bombarded with garbage from abroad but from within. Strange days indeed.

BURROUGHS

I took a walk beside the river today. There in with the water lillies and the cat tails were tell tale signs of two hundred years of mans growth. Floating in with the wood chips and the dead fish were the throw away consumeables of a society hell bent on progress. And there upon the matted grass so perfectly out of place were a plastic tampon applicator, a glossy condom package, and half a dozen empty beer cans, a complete nights work. The only things missing were the trash producing folk who left the stinking mess in their absence.

Walking the narrow paved route snaking beside the river the smell of industry filled my nostrils with the acrid odor of sulphur. An oh so un-heavenly scent....sulphur. Back some time the folks'd say that the devil had made his appearance when the smell of the combustable powder filled the air. Well Beelzebub must have just left, him along with the two dandies who fouled the park with an oh so covert yet public affair by the riverside.

Moments later the wind seemed to have cleared the air of the sickly scent and I wondered how much lingered back... invisible. Like ghosts trapped in a long abandoned TB hospital awaiting the next outbreak. I don't know what's worse the garbage on the streets or the invisible waste pumped into the sky and the water and the earth? Seems people don't complain about what they can't see. The powers that be like it that way too.

There was a time however when the sky rained pure and the lakes contained drinkable water and the soil wasn't corrupted with plastic and rubber and 10 million chemical toxins. It makes me so sick I dream of cutting it up. I was born too late or maybe I've stuck around too long. Either way my walk wasn't much to behold. I could almost enjoy the space if I could overlook this place.

THINK

Democracy has been Hijacked
The key today is how does society address environmental concerns without stalling the almighty economy. With big business only concerned with profitability and a negligable but legislated interest in the state of the environment investors might be in for a ride. Good I'm glad...fuck em. To quote a recent writer of popular music "the things that pass for knowledge I can't understand." That said, joyful participation in the sorrows of the world appears the only way it could be. The twenty first century promises to be an interesting time with numerous regions facing very different weather conditions. If the global condition is not changing....which many sources would have you believe...then why the erratic conditions? Why are the poles melting? Natural process my ass...we've only been monitorting these things for a fraction of a second in earths natural history. Yet we're bold enough to claim we know whats going on. Its really strange what gets written out of history ...like the fact that the American constitution is strongly influenced by Iroquoin Indian methods of promoting social cohesion. I just don't want to see everything go to the dogs while the elite deny any problem exists. It's like a French revolution all over again. And what was the kings diary entry on the fateful day the Bastille was stormed....."more of the same." I like to believe he who controls the press controls popular truth. My fear is that in the name of the economy leaders will fail to inform the public until the environment is too far gone. Desertification, crop failure, water shortages, are real possibilities for a people living in the delusion of materialistic excess. What were the Roman emperors doing when it's society collapsed? Blindly encouraging bureaucracy....wow....holy fuck nothing has changed. Or what of the Greeks? They were battling other city states ...in the midst of wars....hmmmmm. Too many appear awake who are actually sleeping. Too many assume to be knowledgeable because they have education (myself included) yet reality states we all cling to social constructions and believe them to be real. It's a good day to die. Welcome to the machine....plutocracy, n. 1. government by the wealthy 2. a government or state in which the wealthy rule 3.a group of wealthy people who control or influence a government 4.a controlling class of rich men - plutocrat.
