lyrics

Jes:
Jenna, do you want to share a bed, perhaps with me?
Some comfort in a life that’s often brutal, often mean
If ever you are in the mood, if ever you would need
relief then you can come to me

Jenna:
I’m sorry if I’m slow to understand, do you mean sex?
That’s not… that not a thing I think I.. I guess
That’s not a thing I think I’m into but you’re welcome Jes
To crawl in here beside with me
We can hold each other while we sleep

Jes:
Ugh not another day

Compulsory Workforce Recruits:
We fell down Jacob’s ladder to a land of rock and sweat
We fell down Jacob’s ladder and we won’t see our home see it ever again
The work goes on forever and the days they extend and extend and extend
The memory of our love is all we have here in the end

Jes:
Jenna I cannot keep up, the pace is just too hard
Jenna:
Keep yourself behind me, try to rest right where you are
Jes:
Jenna look, behind you, an old man headed our way
He looks like, is that a Wanderer?
Jenna:
No wait

The guard, the one named Rainu, he is waving both his arms
He’s shouting something now, are we in trouble?

Jes:
Something’s wrong
He won’t come any closer if that old man’s who I think
The Wanderers are… something bad is happening

Rainu:
Recruits you must run, extreme danger has come
Drop your tools you are done, you must hurry and go

Cery:
Jes, what’s going on
Yery:
Yes, I think something’s wrong
Crimson:
Everything’s shaking
L3X:
Hold on, we’re about to explode

.

Cery:
We’re still alive
Yery:
We’re buried
Jes:
How is it we’re not crushed
Jenna:
I always say I’m sorry to the rocks while we all work

I asked them not to hurt us now
L3X:
That’s really not a thing
Jenna:
Well, we’re still alive
Crimson:
My people, we are burrowers, and I think

That this space is not quite natural
Cery:
We had some news to share
Yery:
Our followers might send supplies
A merchant’s coming here

Jes:
We’re buried under rock,
This might not be the time
L3X:
Excuse me
When I turn on a light, I need you all to please not scream

Cery:
Why would we scream
Crimson:
I think he might be speaking of the man
Who’s here with us
Jes:
Right now?
L3X:
He’s sitting next to your left hand

*Click*

Cery, Yery & Jes:
A Wanderer
Jenna:
Why is he so deformed?
Jes:
I think he’s going to speak

Paul Shapera Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Cama’s attempt to commune with higher beings failed; she only found Decadent Dottie. Together they roamed, indulging in dangerous forms of psycho-neural self-exploration which Cama hoped would present the key to her people’s further evolution. It only led to her destroying her people so that one of their pets could evolve. She sat in her former civilization's rubble and listened to Paul Shapera. ... more
