THREE MILE PILOT LYRICS - SINGLES, ETC

The Ur-Quan Destroyer

At the top of the hill they don't know their own strength
Squeezing silver 'till the eagle screams
Circulation is tortured and mutilated
Deformed and bolted down in steel brackets
When there's space between your gears,
You move slow away from suffocation
Oiled down it's meant to ride low

Remember when you could live off dad
in his mud castle at the bottom of the fault line
Life-o-suction - fierce and hungry was to be the motto
Building a revolution with toothpick and glue
Now working the sore arm into a numb confusion of constant mode,
Afflicting the muscle to further strengthen the dexterity of the worker
You gotta let them be - senseless - penniless
Everything they want you to be
Melt your skin stunt your growth


vux intruder #3

been tightening the leash for some
good years now. bet you'd like to see
it like to see it shine. like the
look in the monkey's eyes as he's
climbing these walls, climbing these
white towers.

in the land of fire and ice I'm a liar
but I'm alive - liar...legs of
ice...like the iron cross that crushes
your glass skull

it's dozens of soldiers praying
(preying) it's a legion of these
miners (minors) burrowing

I lie in the ocean bleeding at this
reception sharks are feeding. like
this monkey's learning to suffer
realizing that these walls aren't
gripped for the hands of cowards.


this divine crown

you feel your way - you wear it well - hey save it hey bring back life - cause this
is what I found - and this you say - this is what I bring to you - bring back life - I
swear I wish I could see it open - this divine crown - I never realized what I sold
to you - $$$ but you just buy it up $$$$$ - divide divine it's safe to say it - $$ you
watch yourself $$$ - you walk in the light - though the dark don't - it don't bother
you - you wear it well - and if even just for a while to let it sink in - should I
know to avoid that crown??


the open sided

leave it open - when is it safe to set a course - the way we fail life goes on and
throughout these days it seems we get easier to please - and if this is what we've
finally made after all these years - leave it astray - leave it all open - it is safe to
set a course - it's the day of the ghost - you're way off course - though we move we
slouch - seems we get easier each day and if this is what we've finally come to
believe after all these years - thanks for believing in what I brought to you - thanks
for the walls - the chutes - the blown tubes - thanks for the blue prints


mercury sentencing (piano plus)

they found water beneath the skin
and when they surfaced on a deep red orange
it was to breathe the poison air
if I cut you would you bleed for me
it makes sense to me it's the kind of love I need
the land's been covered in blankets of snow
and it's not persuading that I need
(more bleeding stuff)
I want it white and through the coma
we reach sound guess I'll stay today
guess I'll remain the fool for all to see
and now that it's over we sure know what
they'll say they can't wait to rub it in
you'll see (bleeding more stuff)


the magistrate (piano minus)

today they wrapped me up in ribbons and
bows to see what they want - I lie so still
over the sea and off the edge of the world
running wild a fire in the sea coming from
where you are - fear comes over a search for
control before you change again - this is
your magestry - this is our wreckage -
for all to see - everything we've made
this is our wreckage - this is your magestry
and here it unfolds - this is
our wreckage and we watch it sail on - and it
moves so slow so cold - this is your magestry
running wild a fire in the sea you're free of course


red sensing

I flee and I fled - amongst the red glare - there's no sense to this - from the way I see it - but I
shot this man - and I flee and I fled - amongst the red glare - you stand out and alone to watch
the storm - you find a cold desert to call your home - sensing red you wonder - hoping never to
mesh but to play the stain -- x ray status control -- would you hold its hand - would you let it
ride - I've seen a power out for some thirty miles - flee - flee - fled - you walk side ways ---


sewn to our side

shields rule our day just like they told you - to forget no one they won't let you, we've got them
sewn to our side - with the target frozen - we hang the grey cloud always over - we constantly
retrain our selves - over swollen backs where no trade with nun in mind - nothing gives - we
walk on our toes and dig in our heals


the approach

I might find some old ghosts - I might fly to a new
host - in this world there's no way - I take
the blame - I trade this face - if it feels
like ice - 7 miles away - there's no way
at a cold distance - I'm afraid of the ice
I follow the tracks - on through the haze
are you afraid today - 7 miles away
a forest of snow - taken to this depth
what they might find - for every dream that
passes their way they'll find a hole
they looked around to see some place that
they could stand but they couldn't it was
dream like a straight line through this space
it's just this phase - with every dream that
passes their way they'll find a way to steer
their hearts - I'll take this phase - it's
just a place to rest - for every dream
that passes their way - when they looked
around to see the ground to stand but they
couldn't find they realized it
was dream like ---------
