Grace 05:16
By the time I saw your grace I was alone in my own disgrace The realm of fire all around Devils with horns stabbing the ground I saw my own nature, tried and true So what happened…what happened to you I saw my own family, blind and alone Everything separate…there was no home I walked over bones, the fallen dead Stumbled on corposes..all the skull heads Oh Mother forgive…I pray all the time But my words are empty…they have no rhyme Oh Father forsake me…I have no blood All was drained fortnight, where I stood Love is a virus…something to catch Love is a stranger…illusion I guess My heart is now open…blood to the ground Pumping out sadness…a gurgling sound My blood flows to Jesus, hanging on the cross The nails of redemption covered in green moss No one to save me, all is now lost My body a meat sac, no great loss So Jesus stands before all this waste Silently laughing at the whole human race And I am his agent…a warrior for God Slaying the retarded here in their illusion fog I cut down the vagrants, the sinners in two I extract the Flyer…and give it back to you. lyrics by JQ

GhostLand 04:33
All alone…on a lost planet of ghosts All alone…on a lost planet of ghosts Lady fortune…is unkind To the man..she left behind Love…is made for two A shame…when there is only you All Alone…on a lost planet of ghosts All alone…on a lost planet of ghosts I cried out…to the sun But got no answer…I was done If you ever…loved me Release your spell…and set me free All alone…On a lost planet of ghosts All alone…on a lost planet of ghosts lyrics by JQ

I was driving way out of town The girl who loved me…had let me down When you’re feeling angry…hate in your heart Time to leave loveless…find a new start This I can learn The point of no return This I can learn The point of no return Then I found her…sitting at a bar Drinking with another…taking her far Shadow stranger in my place Soon found my fist in his face This I can learn The point of no return This I can learn The point of no return So give me all the time to think Before the reaper opens the final brink No man can go the full life mile Without the beauty in Her smile This I can learn The point of no return This I can learn The point of no return lyrics by JQ

I entered into a state of Seeing And everything had death at its Core I entered into a state of Seeing And everything had death at its Core I passed a house of people And they were all dying I passed a park of dog lovers They were all dying I passed a bar of alcohol drinkers And they were all dying I talked to a pretty lady Who was also dying I picked up a little baby It was dying…later I held the hand of my lover And she was also dying I prayed in a religious temple To a god that was slowly dying I entered into a state of Seeing And everything had death at its Core I entered into a state of Seeing And everything had death at its Core I debated the philosophy of life With a woman who was dying I raised a toast with others Who were all dying I went to my therapist And saw that he was dying I listened to my favorite music By musicians who were dying I ate a gourmet meal Where everyone was dying I watched a feature movie Where all the actors were dying I took a class in college Where all the students were dying I took a swim at the public pool Where everyone was dying I went to see my favorite team But everyone was dying I entered into a state of Seeing And Everything had death at its Core I entered into a state of Seeing And everything had death at its Core I took a walk in nature And everything was dying I held the trunk of a tree And felt it was dying I saw the petals of a flower And watched it dying I followed a flying bird And knew it was dying I felt my own heart beating And knew I was dying I jumped into the mountain lake And touched the water dying I rose into the sky above Realizing I was dying I entered into a state of Seeing And everything had death at its Core I entered into a state of Seeing And everything had death at its Core lyrics by JQ

So this is the answer Long time coming So this is the solution Long time coming We of the warrior lineage We of the bloodline supreme We who hold the true honor We who know the way with sight Quetzalcoatl rising Quetzalcoatl rising Warriors of the Dark Sun Putting victims on the run Killing fields for everyone Never stopped till it is done We have so long been in waiting Preparing with Wills of steel Training in the arts of Seeing Ready with the weapons so real Quetzalcoatl rising Quetzalcoatl rising Warriors of the Dark Sun Lyrics by JQ

ButterFly 05:06
She was without Sin God left her as she had been Butterflies are free to roam Flower to flower is their home She is free ….so free Water flows to the tree Love is all the rage Getting out of the cage I placed her in silence Behind the bars of defiance Never to feel the breeze Left alone in deep freeze Butterfly of the night Moth dust from flight Golden in the wind You are my only Sin I seduce love from this one Taking the color from the sun Butterflies cannot be free When I will not let her be Pinned to the collection board Separated from the insect hoard No one in a family of friends For Butterflies there are only ends Butterfly of the Night Moth dust from flight Golden in the wind You are my only Sin lyrics by JQ

Before the time of descent Before this time of regret The entrance into the land of the dead Only a sorcerer…stays ahead My hand upon the heart of Life My protection against all strife Something in the way Something in the way Only the lonely…can stay Walking passed the dead Zombies…without a head Empty people eating still Never ever getting their fill I saw the face of a past love Doomed to never fly….above She had chosen the path of greed Now condemned to never lead Something in the Way Something in the Way Only the lonely…can stay I saw my old family friend Lost in illusion till the end Never to see, to feel the joy Having become a dark decoy I saw a man who never did love find Stuck in this world, going out of his mind Thinking this woman was the only one Giving up his search, fooled till he was done Something in the Way Something in the Way Only the lonely…can stay I saw a young woman in the street In her eyes was total defeat I saw an old woman on her knee Praying to a god that did not See I saw a young man with a plan Thinking he wasn’t working for the man I saw a group protesting Hate In their eyes was the very same Fate I saw a truck full of working men Forgotten with nothing left to defend I saw a river that stopped its flow Realizing it had no where to go I saw a dead person on the road Realizing that they had lost their code I saw a party of dancing fools Realizing that they had no rules Something in the Way Something in the Way Only the lonely…can stay I saw a fire burning up the land No way to stop it…that was the plan I saw all the ocean rise up to the shore Destroying all buildings down to the core I saw a tornado, take down a town Nothing left standing..only a frown I saw the End coming…darkness over all Knowing the population had missed the call I saw my won Seeing..was to much to bare Realizing Gods plan was Not to be Fair I took the turn southward..to the land of light Giving up on humans…But continuing the fight Something in the Way Something in the Way Only the lonely…can Stay Something in the Way Something in the Way Only the lonely…can Stay. Lyrics by JQ

about

My son, Graham was driving. He had taken us deep into Big Bend ,Texas. He had picked the car music also. What I heard tipped my reality. What is this? I asked. He replied..."Dark Country". Both the lyrics and instrumentals were part of my long association with folk music...but the lyric content was shocking. They were all singing about death. I came home and wrote eight songs for this album in a few days. Only one song was "extracted"., due to its ancient dirge overload. The remainder resonate with who I am... without Trying. This is a not-doing. The songs reflect the landscape of death, and even the Butterfly is not free of this impending reality.
