about

Drum track programmed on an Elektron Machinedrum SPS1UW.

lyrics

Black Box

I accept the results
I condemn the resistance
I put the black in the box
In spite of your insistence
I will love my splattered self
Splintered self
And all the karmic consequences
You can love it or leave it
Life's not fair and this is this
Tautological non sequiturs for days
Your existentialist surveillance equipment

This fiction we're spinning
This steam that we've spun
Deus absconditus
Theodicies in everyone

If you catch my meaning meaning meaning meaning
If you catch my drift drift drift drift drift

Mr. McGuffin, your briefcase, sir
This black box is a honey pot
This memcon will recover the blur

Vast black rivers of tape loops and type
This black box swallows everything that i write

Scooped up in the raid
With Hard Bop and Crossfade
I forgot my name
I lost my place
On the threshold of your kiss
Something must have gone amiss
I stopped searching and became
Someone different in your embrace

The house represents the brain
The architecture of dreams and landscapes
Face to face
Roll the tape

Mr. MacGuffin, your briefcase, sir
This black box is a honeypot
This memcon will recover the blur

Vast black rivers of tape loops and type
This black box swallows everything that I write
