Is this the cost of doing business? The price seems a little high You’ve built yourself quite the system A money sun and you’re a satellite Keep the dead trees in the ground, yeah Keep them down deep in the ground Oh bite your lip and just take care of it Before we tear your castle down Keep the dead trees in the ground, yeah Keep them down deep in the ground Your bottom line will take a hit But just take care of it Before we bring you suckers down What a cheap trick to use tradition As a reason not to change When in fact you’ve got an addiction Time to clean those junky veins Keep the dead trees in the ground, yeah Keep them down deep in the ground Oh bite your lip and just take care of it Before we tear your castle down Keep the dead trees in the ground, yeah Keep them down deep in the ground Your bottom line will take a hit But just take care of it Before we bring you suckers down Your promises, your promises, Your promises, your promises Your promises, your promises, Your promises, your promises Your promises, your promises, Your promises, your promises Don’t mean anything.

You’ve got the perfect excuse How convenient But the well has run dry So excuse me if I’m not so lenient Or obedient I’ve got pictures to burn And earth to turn When you’re halfway between wolf and dog When you’re halfway between father and sun When you’re halfway between the night and the dawn When you’re halfway between the moon and the sun Oh here we go again I guess I shouldn’t be surprised But I warned you That it would be different this time Oh, but you’re in the know And you’ve got the time Well I’m playing for keeps And you’re way out of line When you’re halfway between wolf and dog When you’re halfway between father and sun When you’re halfway between the night and the dawn When you’re halfway between the moon and the sun

You and me aren’t going to last This too shall pass Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh Our bodies will decompose While our children grow old Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh Come and decay with me, yeah Come waste away with me, yeah We can rot together gracefully Come disintegrate with me The moss it will slowly spread Until it swallows up our whole head Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh Our problems will remain unsolved And our hearts will just dissolve Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh Come decompose with me We’re leaves at the base of the tree We’re salmon at the top of the stream Come disintegrate with me Come decompose with me Come waste away with me Come and decay with me Come disintegrate with me Come decompose with me Come waste away with me Come and decay with me Come disintegrate with me The leaves turn back to trees The salmon return to the sea Won’t you come decompose with me Come return to dust with me Come and decompose with me

Serpentine 01:45
There’s inner space and outer space Inner space and outer space Inner space and outer space Inner space and outer space There’s inner space and outer space Inner space and outer space Inner space and outer space Inner space and outer space I’ve been to inner space I’ve been to outer space I’ve been to inner space I’ve been to outer space I’ve been to inner space I’ve been to outer space I’ve been to inner space I’ve been to outer space

Predators 04:54
I’m happiest alone, you can all go home On your way out the door Could you please take my god damn phone Well thanks for the concern But if your back could just turn Between my health and my hell There’s a line that’s begun to blur Knock knock, ring ring, anybody home? Knock knock, ring ring, anybody home? Knock knock, ring ring, is anybody home? Knock knock, ring ring, I’m better off alone It’s not that I’m depressed And that’s a lazy guess All you girls and boys and your digital noise And the nine to five life It really cuts like a knife Once you lose the fight Might as well say goodnight Knock knock, ring ring, anybody home? Knock knock, ring ring, anybody home? Knock knock, ring ring, is anybody home? Knock knock, ring ring, I’m better off alone Knock knock, ring ring, how’s the weather? Knock knock, ring ring, and you’re mother? Knock knock, ring ring, new TV show Knock knock, ring ring, half price sale! Knock knock, ring ring, important career Knock knock, ring ring, just climb that ladder Knock knock, ring ring, make more money Knock knock, ring ring, spend more money Knock knock, ring ring, need a purpose? Knock knock, ring ring, just have more children Knock knock, ring ring, it’s your birthright Knock knock, ring ring, to kill the planet Knock knock, ring ring, this is progress Knock knock, ring ring, and you deserve it Knock knock, ring ring, this is moral Knock knock, ring ring, this is normal

Heart Throb 04:03
I get the feeling that we both knew From the start how this would end A testament to the fallacy Of using comfort to pretend But no hard feelings At least not from me I’ve been down that road before Thanks for the colour in my memories I’m not frozen anymore I get the feeling that we both knew From the start how this would end Expectations and promises Have burned to ashes once again But no hard feelings At least not today I’ve broken down that door But then the sun goes down And the sky turns black I can’t call you anymore Ring ring , ring ring Ring ring , ring ring Ring ring , ring ring Ring ring , ring ring Ring ring , ring ring Ring ring , ring ring Ring ring , ring ring Ring ring , ring ring I get the feeling that we both knew From the start how this would end But how we bend How we pretend And how we mend I get the feeling that this is the end

Going back in time just for the weekend Am I going to be able to get out again Get out, get out again Or will the shadows just pull me back in Will the clouds part and show the way Has anything even changed Am I simply dressed to play the part Of the boy with the broken.... Don’t care about defending Now I’m post everything And the message I was sending Now I’m post everything All those truths I was bending Well now I’m post everything And you’ll post anything But I’m post everything Going back in time just for the weekend Gonna dig up an old friend again Sometimes I like to pretend But a mirror can’t become its reflection And the curse can’t become the cure My sweet provocateur I never could resist your touch But I think I’ve finally had Enough Enough Enough Enough Don’t care about offending Now I’m post everything And the message I was sending Now I’m post everything All those truths I was bending Well now I’m post everything And you’ll post anything But I’m post everything

The Flood 04:01
You’re the type to dance in the sunlight I belong on the edge in the shade But when the dam blows I want you to be next to me When we’re underwater we will be the same You got to me, watch out for me There’ll be no more There’ll be no more There’ll be no more There’ll be no more There’ll be no more There’ll be no, no , no, no No debts to pay And nothing to remember No Tuesdays and no Novembers Just cold deep, dark, and blue Just me, just you You got to me, watch out for me No more sword overhead No more living like we’re dead No more sword overhead No more living like we’re dead You got to me, watch out for me

Symbiosis 04:24
If you’re the peach Then I guess I’m the pit Yeah, you’re the food And I’m the shit But we’re the same At a certain point Like you’re the bone And I’m the joint Or you’re the teeth And me, I’m the hair In the tumor both our bodies share Individual But never alone You’re the lichen I’m the tombstone You’re the healer I’m the sore You’re the healer I’m the sore You’re the healer I’m the sore

what do you hear in the whispers?

about

Inner Space Odyssey paints a potent portrait of an artist coming to terms with the world around him, how that relates to his own life, and how to take it all into the future. It's a dance floor destroyer one second, and a headphone mind-melter the next, with the potential to expand consciousness like the most potent psychedelics, providing a path through the darkness for the cosmically lost. Listen to it, and take a journey of your own.
