GOD IS NOT LOVE
Open your eyes to all those you've compromised You know that God is not love Weakness and lies left with a card from: "The Divine" You know your God is not love I am alive I am alive I am alive I am alive I am alive I am alive I am alive Don't forget you're alive I am alive Don't forget you're alive I am alive Don't forget you're alive I am alive Don't forget you're alive! |
God Is Not Love
Notes
GOD IS NOT LOVE
It makes me ill when I meet a person whose soul is so ugly they feel they have to contaminate my mind with their perverted version of faith. Devoid of any social skills, they vomit all of their religious ideologies on me in the first uncomfortable moments of our meeting. This song, "God Is Not Love," reflects how disheartened I've become with the aggressive and misguided tactics the self-proclaimed "person of faith" uses to attain the fast track to salvation. The self-righteous who mercilessly judge others: You know who you are and I'm calling you out in this song. |

LET IT GO
It is our own belief structure that keeps us powerless. It is our own mind that keeps us from being who we want to be. This song describes a spiritual awakening attained from wiping away the daily assault of information around you. |

If I could take you Cut you up and break you Satisfy each cheap thrill Just because I can If I could fuck that Smile off your face Your life's a complete waste Unlike you, I am not ashamed You're useless in every way but one YOU CAN'T STOP ME You'll leave only when I'm done STOP ME I'll break you You just scream out: NO! NO! When the walls come closing in on me Your face is what I'll see There will come a day If I could force you Take your heart and keep you down Because I want to Demonstrate control If I could force feed Each and every mistake That you've ever made I'll get off when I've had enough If I could take my fears and shove them YOU CAN'T STOP ME In your head STOP ME I know you'd crack I'm stronger than you think I AM! AM! When the wall come closing in on me Your face is what I'll There will come a day |
Force Feed
Notes
FORCE FEED
Humiliation. Degradation. Emasculation. This song is a portrait of a woman who is driven to consume, abuse then destroy. Her victims are lured in by pleasure and never realize how they are slowly being stripped of their masculinity. |

Notes
PRIVILEGE
Creation is a privilege not a right. Do not bring an innocent into a world where they are doomed to suffer at the hands of unfit parents. Although I highlight abortion as a necessary right in this song, I more importantly am pleading with you to think about the consequences of your actions. Do not destroy a life because you are too stupid to take a pill or wear a rubber. |

I wrote this as more of a preface to "New World Catastrophe" than as a song. If you listen carefully you will notice that this song is in 6 and I am playing the same guitar line in the bridge of "New World Catastrophe" but am doing it more aggressively and in 3. |

I lie here broken my throat bleeds A poisoned voice with which to sing Of times as bad as they might seem Each struggle multiplies nothing Pushing failure as my best Joining hands with all the rest I covet all of your success I hope you lose Join in my PUSHING LUSTING Chorus of failure WANTING JOIN IN MY Warm words struggle for release The icy air destroys all meaning So no confusion can be seen You need to listen attentively If I should die before I wake My makers fight on what they take Before my soul and spirit breaks I hope you lose I'm content with what I've done Darkness found me from the start I'm content with what I've done Darkness found me from the start I lie here broken my throat bleeds A poisoned voice with which to sing Of times as bad as they might seem Each struggle multiplies nothing Pushing failure as my best Joining hands with all the rest I covet all of your success I hope you lose Join in my PUSHING LUSTING Chorus of failure WANTING JOIN IN MY I'm content with what I've done Darkness found me from the start I'm content with what I've done Darkness found me from the start Contagious and shallow I can push right through it Affection for cupid I can push right through it Virtuous and stupid I can push right through it Strength the greatness pulpit I can push right through it Sacred Shapeless Hopeless I can push right through it Silent Weak and Meager I can push right through it I can push right through it I can push right through it I can push right through it I can push right through it I'm content with what I've done Darkness found me from the start I'm content with what I've done Darkness found me from the start |
New World Catastrophe
Notes
NEW WORLD CATASTROPHE
From an early age I was trained as a classical musician. This song is musically inspired by Antoin Dvorak's Symphony No. 9, which he dubbed "From The New World." The lyrics, the music and the title of this song highlight a sense of defiance towards my classical roots. In the past, my peers and my teachers were always mortified that I would give up paid symphonic work to play rock shows for little or no money. My desire to create music that was heavier was dismissed as me "wasting my talent." This song is for everyone who is seriously trying to pursue heavier musical avenues professionally when everyone around them is telling them to get a "real" job. I respect those of you, who like myself, have embraced creativity over stability. I am not afraid to fail. In fact, I will rejoice in my failures because I have not settled into pursuing the life that's safe and expected of me. |

I'll lie in wait for your grace Set me free I'll hope and pray that one day You'll see me Fated and dangerous you see me Not what I can be Dismissed as extreme My eyes have already seen The deflation of dreams Eat your secrets and Hide under covers Power by iniquitous means Bereft of humanity The "Second Coming" is a Second hand thought for the weak You bound and lock me away Compromise me each day Just to fill your Immodest ego Power perpetuates from Destructive phrases like "The end of the world is near..." It's already here I can see your mistakes From a mile away Pushing Cornering me Fortune Subsequently Is not the thing I'm searching for You'll never know me And for this... I'll lie in wait for your grace Set me free I'll hope and pray that one day You'll see me Fated and dangerous you see me Not what I can be Dismissed as extreme |

Notes
MY MASTER
Fashion is merely a form of expression and is too often confused as a lifestyle choice. This song is about how society follows a strict uniform code and loses the brilliance of the individual in the process. Be who you want to be. Wear what you want to wear. Do not fall into the trappings of style. Judge people by their character, not by their choice of clothes. |

OPUS DEI
This song likens the self-imposed discipline and hardship of wanting to create the perfect piece of art to the self-inflicted corporal mortification performed by the Opus Dei. I've tortured my mind to find my place as an artist; The Opus Dei torture their bodies to remind them of their place with God. This song is about being satisfied by the process and not seduced by the potential end result. |

Notes
JUST FOR TODAY
This song was written about a good friend of mine who died from HIV complications. She contracted this virus through what she believed to be an exclusive relationship with her boyfriend. Her boyfriend had in actuality been cheating on her for years. Although she got this retrovirus through her blind love and misguided trust, she was the most positive person I have ever met. This song is a celebration of her life. |

Notes
LAS CONVERSACIONES CON EL DIABLO
This song is a campy slant on pre-ordained destiny with both God and the Devil in the cockpit. As only the fleshless could devise the sheer absurdity of our lives, us poor human wretches ought to be happy that something else is pulling the strings. The point of view of this song is as if the listener is eavesdropping on a luncheon between God and the Devil. Picture them both as old friends reuniting to have a good laugh over humanity's stupidity. |

Notes
THE SUICIDE TABLE
This song highlights my frustration at wanting to be remembered in this life. I want to do something that justifies me taking up space on this planet. I feel all of us suffer: Feeling we're not doing enough and are in a race against the time limit we have on this earth. Although this song might be abrasive and uncomfortable for many of you, I feel it is a positive thing to push past being comfortable and feel the essence of the song: Do not commit suicide of the soul. This song is urging you to flush out the world of old ideas, push yourself to produce new ideas and implement these ideas into action and a reason for your own existence. |

Don't fall away In this ordinary world We're not so ordinary Don't be scared just Hold on for today If I could wipe away Their stares I'd create a new beginning for us Can you wait For the sun to paint the sky Reflect success Right through your eyes You know I'll guide you through Your fears Because I've made it I'm already here I will I will Never let you give up your soul Don't fall away Leave them to decay It's better that way Don't fall away Free to float with the clouds If your mind should stray You can travel really far To come back home Life is funny that way I would never betray A commitment made of gold Night wrapped tender In a bow of... Arms and legs My adoring thoughts and gaze Rest on you My only inspiration Come to me Without fear I've made it I'm already here I will I will Never let you give up your soul Don't fall away Leave them to decay It's better that way Don't fall away Free to float with the clouds |

Notes
LES NUAGES(The Clouds)
This song was written as a lullaby to my writing partner and husband Brian. Initially I wrote this song as a valentine with no intention of releasing it. We found through the course of recording The Coronation Of The Locust Queen that the album as a whole would benefit by having this song at the end as a release. When I wrote this song, Brian and I we're not very sure how this album would turn out but were frustrated by the amount of money being spent by late nights in the studio. We had forsaken our birthdays, anniversary and Christmas gifts in order to free up money to create music that would hopefully move people like you who are reading this. This song is about love, hope for the future and a promise to my husband that I will never give up. |
