dead you will lie
and never memory of you
will there be nor desire
into the aftertime
(and do)
you will go your way
among dim shapes
dream every night and day
feel every night and day
oh so you can breath
feel something only you know
you will go your way
among dim shapes

Fortune Teller: Everyone has a story Girl. Do you even know the story about Girl, Girl?
Girl: People say that my mind has mutated.
Fortune Teller. Mhh, they say that? You know what they mean when they say your mind’s been mutated right? Mutare – means to change. You know, a lot of people don’t like change cause it’s really painful. So many stories that don’t wanna be told again. Oh, that reminds me, i met your mother. Yea, and she had a dream about you before you were born.
Girl: A dream?
Fortune Teller: Yes Girl a dream. In 1994. You were surrounded by this red sand, yea and there was a snake and it was was speaking to you. That’s it Girl, I had to meet you, there is something that I need. A long time ago there were these dangerous people that, for some reason, were trying to change the logic of time, luckily they failed, but these same dangerous people were trying to conceal the knowledge of the serpent. Wait, we don’t have much time: here, take this. Yes Girl, you have one of the pieces of the knowledge of the serpent and you have to remember what the snake said to you. ssshhhh.

1. 1994, you getting depressed, its not the first time.
This child bringing back the feelings of your first days.
Harmed when you were just a baby,
it’s been 12410 days for you to get crazy.
Boon and bane it represents the future,
this child; your hope, your great adventure.
2. 1994, back in your home town. Your friends are resignated,
you’ve been away too long. You wanna be strong, but
depression occupies your brain you cant do anything,
day and night, laying in your bed, what will the future bring?
Voices in your head blame your behaviour, call you a failure.
This child, can it really be your saviour?
3. 1994, who was there for you?
They sayin, you should be thankful,
their forgiveness should be payed for.
They saying: its a free land,
free to fight, free to kill and free to exploit.
But if you aint got money, they saying, you can’t decide.
The upper middle class prefers to keep buiseness quiet.
All these circumstances make you afraid and you drown.

what did we fight for?
I am tired of playing
what did we cry for?
Like children we were chasing
you keep dragging me
what did we long for?
I am tired of waiting
what did we hope for?
Like children we were craving
you keep draggin me
7 pills a day
make you forget what you feel
7 pills a day
make you forget
poverty and fear
7 pills a day
you can’t control
rememory connects
old experience with guilt
and nothing can ever repair
what has been takin’
from you

abused your beauty
they called you ruthles
and accused you
of neglegting

or is it real?

your attraction irresistible
you seem to be so special
take a second
take a second to lay me down
there is this affection
i cannot explain
can it give me protection
its too surreal?
take a second to lay me down
can you hold me when i fall
can you hold me when i fall?
i am drawn to your spell
your attraction irrestible
you seem to be so special

(come to me close)
something in my mind
draws me to the light
i live in the night
and i am rearing
in this lonely
tragic destiny
daring to be burnt
i fly fly

draws me to the light
coming from the spine
never ending
in this lonely
tragic destiny
i fly fly
to the light
the same the same
the same light

snake and apple
all love’s seeds

cause god said
i will create
pain for you
eve
you shall
bear children
with pain
and your desire
shall be
for your man
and he shall be
your master

who can be hustling, holding a glass of champaign in one hand?
who can take risk?
who can ask for loyalty?
who can break the laws and get away with it?
space is limited
all the images
future is a privelege
illusions of the rich
living must have more than material purpose
there must be anything nurturing

it's a gloomy sunday
i call your name
a sudden silence
where have you been?
a shadow casts upon your face
protects you from this sunday's light
grief eminates from your dark eyes
but i can't stay
it's a gloomy sunday
i call your name
a sudden silence
where have you been?
a shadow casts upon your face
protects you from this sunday's light
grief eminates from your dark eyes
but i can't stay

Mutant: the monster is one who lives in transition, i am the monster
Girl: what are you doing there?
Mutant: i dont want to forget
Girl: forget what?
Mutant: the strategies of normalization
Girl: the Mysterious Lady without Name told me that normality doesn’t exist, have you heard of mutation?
Mutant: mutation is the art of imagination, the knowledge of the serpent, the art of change, the art of mind, the art of becoming the monster. did you remember what the snake told you?
Girl: yes, i saw the snake. there was a voice singing:
debris of my vision, wretched of the screen
porn and paranoia deep within
one small death after the other
television invading the skin
everyone an object everyone a pimp
rape fantasy, flesh dystopy
porn attributes, money anarchy
no sanity, sadist atrophy
sex guarantee, orgiastic hegemony
a split divides body and mind
i am schizo
i am a schizo-body

hold me somewhere
on the ocean tide
tide weys me through the night

Epilog [Mu'tants]
02:17

Haiqing:
Girl was looking for love and freedom because she has seen resentment and disdain. as the life of Girl’s mother MOW was marked by breakdowns, Girl learned to operate under the mode of destruction.
Girl thinks that her mind has mutated because she has been told this story all her life. but what if Girl's imagination was the key to another dimension and the suspicious mutation was just a misunderstanding of our very mundane perception?
anyways. the question will be whether Girl can fight an army of ships with a hand full of sand?
