lyrics

Colossus

Designed to protect and defeat the Enigma machine
Intelli-connections for welfare and warfare, contained
Colossus embodies the progress of mankind toward peace
But circuits have shifted, malfunction and havoc released

Blinded by digital controls
Programmed to save our souls
The system has threatened us all
Colossus will be our downfall

Advancing illusions, we’re shielded to social decay
Detecting new pathways, it travels and starts to create

Blinded by digital controls
Programmed to save our souls
The system has threatened us all
Colossus now too strong to fall

Wired for treason, sheltered from light of the sun
An empire rises, sets fire to the analog world
The future detached, from the spirits that guides us today
Now the technical forces snuff out torches that beacon our way

VALLEY OF THE SNAKE
by RUBY THE HATCHET

Pete and I just saw Ruby the Hatchet open up for Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats. What a great show! I hoped their record would capture the energy/vibe of their live show and was not disappointed. - Alex Blackwülf
