Gold Oil and Drugs 06:16
lyrics

Gold, Oil And Drugs There ain’t no hole deep enough to save anybody from an H bomb
There ain’t no place to far enough to start over if we run Two minutes to midnight B52’s always in the skies Two minutes to midnight Submarines parked on your ocean floor We’ve got the Blue and red 
playing with our head Each and every day something more insane While they’re taking us down behind the scenes Two minutes to midnight B52’s always in the skies Two Minutes to midnight Submarines parked on your ocean floor I was raised in a time When they told me war was over That the future was unity between all the people in this world Then they brought war back Just to dominate the whole fucking world They bombed the twin towers 
Iraq and Afghanistan Wrote the patriot act that was made to take your rights away
speaking doublespeak
the futures looking double plus good a-okay Two minutes to midnight ICBM’s on Satellites in the night Two Minutes to midnight Cambridge Analytica I know the name of your god
It’s name is gold oil and drugs 
I know the name of your god
Gold Oil and Drugs Gold, Oil, and Drugs
Blind, Deaf and Dumb

Two minutes to midnight Protesters on the White House lawn Two Minutes to midnight Gold, Oil, and Drugs
Two Minutes to midnight Gold, Oil, and Drugs
Two Minutes to midnight Gold, Oil, and Drugs

In A Valley Shaded 03:43
lyrics

In a valley Shaded I stopped to take my rest for the journey it was long and hard I had pressed when lain out on the grass neath the gnarled oak tree my past and my future got the better of me visions they came of my triumph and loss and plied high the scale with dead albatross the future came dressed as a dealer of cards I drew the empress and the seven of stars webspun sight of my hands to her breast and the words from my mouth forsaking the rest forgetting my past I can start to believe when lain out on the grass neath the gnarled oak tree visions they came of the futures I've lost I'd not say regret but something they cost the future she offered her wand and her hearts I did not take them but the way to depart when lain out on the grass neath the gnarled oak tree my past and my future got the better of me

Only Live Once 05:27

Only Live Once I have never seen the sky look the way it does now kaleidoscopic brilliance of the sun colliding with the clouds I have never seen waters this clear cold and deep rainbonized waterfall prisms like my eyes colliding with dreams and every moment I've ever lived was just to put me where I am and everything I'll ever give won't help me to understand a piece of the puzzle a shattered hologram a cloud in a sky full on e grain In a world of sand a wave in the ocean a plane on the land a fractal in a pattern of the universe in my hand and every moment I've ever lived was just to put me where I am and everything I'll ever give won't help me to understand a piece of the puzzle a shattered hologram a cloud in a sky full on e grain In a world of sand a wave in the ocean a plane on the land a fractal in a pattern of the universe in my hand

about

Paradise Planet

A mix of places and emotions to visit with an open mind and heart, we have painted pictures for you to place yourselves into, a world for you to disappear between the pages of your story. All true and all make believe this collection of magical sounds may heal old scars or remind you of what direction to go. We make no amends for the nature of this outpouring. It is raw, genuine, and made to last one thousand years of digital reproduction. A time capsule from behind the curtain of ourselves that came to completion under the blankets of a world in metamorphosis. Here we are in transition, not caterpillars nor butterflies, but heroes of our own story that burns in our hearts giving us hope and remorse and touching the parts we are not sure weather or not we want touched. I am not saying these are safe pieces of music. They may cause you to look for a different meaning than what you can find on the surface, but we have tried delicately and with precision to bring the authentic feeling to you. The distillation process of all the audio was as pure as possible and the performances have been rendered in a way to preserve the original performer's emotion and energy. As always the quality of the music with depend greatly on the system of reproduction employed. We would also like to invite the listener to take time to enjoy this music with their eyes closed.
