lyrics

in the master's sight
where our bodies must bend
an isolated mind contemplates itself
dreaming of purity
dreaming of flight
dreaming of vision
dreaming of light
in the yawning dusk
where the globe melts away
a crumbling fog that would swallow us whole
dreaming of platypus
dreaming of might
dreaming of scarecrows
dreaming of night

in the mottled land
where love's body is burned
by phallic hands who can never seem to understand
burning with gases
burning with doubt
burning with emptiness
burning without
on the river's edge
where the bank turns to slime
form is sly illusion for life changing in kind
falling with minerals
falling with grime
falling with emptiness
falling with mind

reify the body where you found it
don't think twice
just ask not what you do
just say not what you feel

reify the unknown into a price
to be paid and made and undone
and silence now to always cry

about

Bourgeois Speedball Oakland, California

Bourgeois Speedball lives in ruins. Sculpting compositions from crumbling synthesizers, samplers, and the soundscapes of Bay Area rebellions, Bourgeois Speedball organizes sound within the decaying oikos of globalized neoliberalism.
