Dreamless
written by: Jak Locke

version 1:
from Action Packed Self Destruction (June 14th 2014) (3:46)
I hear voices where silence resides
All they speak is demagogue refrains
Lockdown, breakdown, another regicide
Infinite reels of repeated frames

Another worthless seed dispensed
Masochistic ignorance
Just another cold dreamscape to see
I've become my own dream's ghost
Kill the virus, kill the host
I can see the end begins with me

I see the beauty of my beautiful sin
Somewhere behind the screaming tide
The truth's more lucid than it's ever been
The purpose of the universe is to die

Another worthless seed dispensed
Masochistic ignorance
Just another cold dreamscape to see
I've become my own dream's ghost
Kill the virus, kill the host
I can see the end begins with me

version 2:
from Loud As Me (September 28th 2020) (3:32)
I hear voices where silence resides, all they speak is demagogue refrains
Lockdown, breakdown, another regicide, infinite reels of repeated frames

Another worthless seed dispensed, masochistic ignorance
Just another cold dreamscape to see
I've become my own dream's ghost, kill the virus, kill the host
I can see the end begins with me, yeah

I see the beauty of my beautiful sin somewhere behind the screaming tide
The truth's more lucid than it's ever been: the purpose of the universe is to die

Another worthless seed dispensed, masochistic ignorance
Just another cold dreamscape to see
I've become my own dream's ghost, kill the virus, kill the host
I can see the end begins with me, yeah, me
