(BC: Speak through the eyes and ethers of tomorrow. Drink from the wells of yesterday’s youth. Decay is present in every memory. You bleed from your eyes trying to seek the truth. T-R-U-T-H truuuuuuth. We speak across the ends of the earth. Someday we’ll stand and die. Others choose to kneel and lie. Others wait for questions unanswered. I want to thank you. I want to thank you. I want to thank you. For teaching what cannot be taught. For buying the things that cannot be bought. For enemy presence that cannot be wrapped. For lighting the Christmas trees on fire and throwing them in the river. Now we’re gonna sit, we’re gonna swim, we’re gonna dream. Through the eyes, through your ears with a positive message, I cannot see you. We are the dream. We speak the dream. We are the machines. We are the machines of god!!!)
