    I sincerely thank those who have supported me, even with this extra cost. I hope things will return to some kind of functioning postal service , however seems like this is the “new normal”.. Cheers !

lyrics

THE MASQUERADE

Spinning around in a sea of serpents
Waiting to see
They're almost round our feet

Walking around in a daze of illusion
Fading away
This game of life we play

Mocking the crowd behind veils of delusion
Spread the seed
Of doubt on which to feed

Drowning in shallow and empty intrusions
Sucking the life
From every mortal being

Spraying the ground with a toxic infusion
Mutating our genes
We're falling apart at the seams

Laughing out loud it's this chemical fusion
Praying for they
Might end this tragic play.

Masquerade , this big charade
This crazy game that we all play
Hide and seek

Hey money makers, movers and shakers
Don't show me your cash , show me your trash
Show me the shit you leave behind
With your drive to dominate the masses

Masquerade , this big charade
This crazy game that we all play
Hide and seek

Checking out my emails gathering my females
Checking out face fuck ,networking ,fuck working
What purpose in-bred hierarchical slobs bigots elite
Let me kiss your feet

I'm raising my glass in a toast
To our last drink of fossil fuels
I vow to get off of this sauce
Give the darkness back its soul
