THUMLOCK LYRICS

1. Intro

[Computer voice:]
"This is the fourth in the series of Thumlock chronicles.
Welcome to Sojourns Lucid Magic."

2. Modulator

Modulate the time, put a ripple through history
Temporal vibrations, live it again
The seed born of ancient philosophy
Found again from a tomb made of stone

Gold orb controls druidic destiny
Secret rituals locked in its core
It sees through the age of eternity
Welcomes all to timeshift their mind

Modulate the time
Vibrate history's line
Travel through the plane
Modulator

Dimensions entwined hold the key to the universe
Chant the ghostly song, say the great wizard's name
Feel the hum as it modulates space and time
Live a story that's been and gone

Cold Earth, never touched by the sun
Darkness reigns, ice covers all
Travel on to when there was no universe
Be there to witness creation's time

Modulate the time
Vibrate history's line
Travel through the plane
Modulate again

3. Time Machine

Time machine
Take me when I've never been
When levitation rules the sky

Settle down
Feel the vortex close around
Keep your eye upon the dial

Flash of light
See half-built pyramids stand in the night
On waves of sound, the stone blocks fly

The Mu-Gods stand
On green lands not yet turned to sand
When prehistoric lore had not yet died

Ten thousand B.C.
Came in my time machine to see
Ten thousand B.C.
Came in my time machine to see

Noisy star
Comes across the sky from far
Son of man, you know you are

Seek to find
The key that fits the lock to free my mind
Orion's Belt calls out from far

Ten thousand B.C.
Came in my time machine to see
Ten thousand B.C.
Came in my time machine to see
Ten thousand B.C.
Came in my time machine to see
Came in my time machine
Ten thousand B.C.
Came in my time machine to see
Came in my time machine
Ten thousand B.C.
Came in my time machine to see
Came in my time machine
Ten thousand B.C.
Came in my time machine to see
Came in my time machine

4. Bateye

I float upon the plane and feel the eyes on me
They burn my back and stray my way
Bateye sees
The blood red eyes of smoke control chaotically
They hang from caves that I can't see

Bateye sees
The blood in me
Time to feed
Time to feed
Time to feed

Paranoia emanates from those that are not there
I will them, meet their deathly stare
Bateye sees
I pass them, look ahead to where I've got to go
None of them can find me there

Bateye sees
The blood in me
Time to feed
Time to feed
Time to feed

5. Neotrantor

There's a bridge into space on the edge where demons often grow
Neotrantor lives there and his face means death to follow
In the vision of a bull, this reptile creature knows
King of his sword's horizon, twilight yet to show

Ride
Neotrantor

Back down, Ox Rider, with cloak made of solid stone
Here's a chance to fly from worlds of silver crimson snow
I will suck the orgone from you, turn around and go
The Mantis lives beyond, I must find what he knows

Ride
Neotrantor
Ride
Neotrantor

There's a bridge into space where he stands, the stone arch is the door
The battle rages on for three full moons or more
Ox Rider calls on Sojourns Lucid Magic lore
Destroys the reptile, Neotrantor is no more

Ride
Neotrantor

Ride through the portal, wormhole transports ox and all
The barren plains of light bathed in tangerine dawn
Andronica looms up through clouds of silver haze
The Mantis lives there, wisdom must transcend this age

Ride
Neotrantor
Ride
Neotrantor

7. Mt. Andronica

I'm climbing Andronica
It's taken two thousand days
The burden on my back
It never goes away
I trudge on step by step
The summit is in sight
Will I ever reach my goal
I'm approaching the height

And I must not fall off the other side
The path I walk is not so wide
Temptations call my name, to give it away
Catch my dreams in flight, I'm not afraid

Silver snow, great volcano
Bursting into the sky
Crystal palace meets the stars
Hear the blizzard cry
My journey's at an end
I travel on no more
I conquered Andronica
My spirit soars

And I must not fall off the other side
The path I walk is not so wide
Temptations call my name, to give it away
Catch my dreams in flight, I'm not afraid

8. Mantis Preying

I come to you
I seek to find
What's the meaning of it all

I've travelled far
Through time, past stars
From eons past I heard you call

Birds of night in full flight, no time to cry out
Flash of light in the sky, see the phoenix fly
In God's name, we kill and maim those who are not the same
Liquid flames, reapers rain, falling from the sky

Tell me why, what's the reason for the sun
It still shines, even if the world is gone
Tell me why, what's the reason for the sun
It still shines, even if the world is gone

You come to me
Expect to see
Answers to all that you ask

It's not so plain
You ask in vain
Existence is its own reward

Birds of night in full flight, no time to cry out
Flash of light in the sky, see the phoenix fly
In God's name, we kill and maim those who are not the same
Liquid flames, reapers rain, falling from the sky

Tell me why, what's the reason for the sun
It still burns bright, even if the world is gone
Tell me why, what's the reason for the sun
It still burns bright, even if the world is gone

Don't ask why, what's the reason for the sun
It still shines bright, even if the world is gone
So don't ask why, what's the reason for the sun
It still burns bright, even if the world is gone

9. Zatthium Biker

I walk around with my head facing down
Stoney pleasure within my surround
I talk today and I sing with the night

One thing that I can't explain
Inside my lungs this blistering pain
I struggle on with no thought for myself

I've been down all day, I find it hard to get up
I've been down all day, I find it hard to get up

She's got long blonde hair, ruby red lips
Three tattooed names on her upper hip
Long blonde hair, ruby red lips
Three tattooed names on her upper hip
Three tattooed names on her upper hip

I'm happy to live my life this way
On the track, I don't think I'll sway
One day I'll know the time is right

Pick me up off the hard ground
Ride me to where we can't be found
Into space that's where I go now

I've been down all day, I find it hard to get up
I've been down all day, I find it hard to get up

She's got long blonde hair, ruby red lips
Three tattooed names on her upper hip
Long blonde hair, ruby red lips
Three tattooed names on her upper hip
Three tattooed names on her upper hip

10. Moondragon

They keep saying we're alone
The magic beings no longer be
We believe their words until
We get high enough to see

Dragon keeps circling the moon
The person in her world is me
If she knows she's being watched
She will disappear soon

Moondragon
Moondragon
Moondragon
Moondragon

Keeper of the golden moon
Her age old eyes will catch me soon
I'm on her side and wish no harm
Her life is free, her envied calm

Moondragon sees our world
Watches lunar craft come near
Visitors can come and go
She guards her moon without any fear

Moondragon
Moondragon
Moondragon
Moondragon

11. Flash The Marble To The West

[Instrumental]
