Track 1 from the fall 1999 Confession of Faith release
Still Born
then i’d have to say a prisoner’s way
is hopeless indeed for have we not choice and need
at least it seems so since first dawn i new day
which i’ve hid and locked away in a pandora’s heart
a slight flickered gleam which is all that fashions the seam
between this life and the next without choice life is a dream
In a dream N/A dream
can you perceive orchard empty blossomed flower
cut from tree my soul is me
so often that i with listless did lie and say
what a good boy am i but for one man the sky
with immense reply did say what a good boy am i
as a boy as a man i think everyone can invite temptation
is it anything is it anyone am i ever finished am i done
the burning heart has a son from whence it seems all run
I believe choice have we The will to make the motion sea
Wane or fill these lives that be Or semi-tear the symmetry
The caliban the i’ll set free The humble can the only
Way that i fear i never see Is crooked man with crooked knee
I believe choice heavy The burdened back the turn us we
From wax to wane the candle’s me To semi-shine the majesty
The caliban the i’ll set free The meager man the only
Way that i fear i shall be As crooked can with crooked knee
The love i ban the set me free My heart to dirt the only
Way that i fear is for me is choice to choice with love as key
that i know is me That i have in me
This is a short film that uses the Confession of Faith song 'Caliban' from the fall 1999 COF album 'StillBorn' made by Mitch Lusas, Jason Richards and Norm Mintle in 2007. The film is a great look at pressure and control and who holds the button of power.

Track 2 from the fall 1999 Confession of Faith release
Still Born
bad taste on my mouth the site tittered away
all sides sit ailing to me and how have i grown
this day as tossed ship in lost sea still afloat
just drifting south in earshot beholden to this
idea of beauty in any hue it places on me
a certain demise i care not the moment
nor the skies in our heart lesion lay
file D for dismay when we’re brought
unto the total view i hammer not to pacify
i just count more than only two dead
on the ground next to Horror Astound
the party shall play oh we’re all swept away
cut apart with sawtooth decided in youth
to covet or treasure the moment it asunder
our land inside the hard banking on the moment
and the poor our heart dangling whore
a meltdown in core with slight sound the
mystify is found last place holding i miss
the purposed reply distort freedoms we halve
and cleave the head from the calve
to sift the rot for repent days are nights
and time slips by me soothe on another level
you speakest of truth but soil my ear
the sodom i see the failures are we have us
any fear receding dimensions the mind-numbing
expanse of drivel turned to downpour i can scour
the shore for bridge with less wormbore
and find few if any in my view the cavalcade
the have i made more 2 sense than a harlot outlaid
are all afraid the burning distemper
as the passion played are we slurred down
me native tempull away our heart
pluck now malaise as a part we crawl drifting far
a bulwarked din see the arms oh well oh anyhow i

Track 3 from the fall 1999 Confession of Faith release
Still Born
if crevice were made and somehow we strayed
and i wound myself up on the edge of the further side
in a twine of delayed i fashioned the frayed
and affixed to my heart a peace that i thought i had tried
then does it all subside
to a lull where we no longer breathe
i’m talking more permanence than that
of a soul to face fear i’ll crawl to be near
and search to find thee are we not all free
when we face the dawn yet it’s time that’s still further drawn
on on on and on
and dawn
with partitioned veil the hardest of trail
is the one from whence i stagger
and all things first flowed
but i fastened the nail to a body so frail
that i don’t know if the fiddle i bowed
would play me a song to settle my soul in the calamity
don’t twist apart their there in waylay
chance debauchered so frantic to say
i hope the dither never sates me it may

Assembly Divide
Track 4 from the fall 1999 Confession of Faith release
Still Born
Shall it shine under the err
Rending hearts and tending no care
Unto my eyes sin it is laden
And lifeless all through the land
So it seems under the air
Shall we mend without care
Undo the end before our knees do bend
A little dream not much steam
I fail to see banality bade me to amend
Heart tend our fear
It shall ever be near
Me and my heart barren
From a start-ing
A home between
Love’s assemblage and the assembly
Of love’s parts
And set aside within the our
It will divide and it seems
If baby can’t do the art
Shall go zombie
And dissolve all at landfall
As faith may seem so sheared
And caught to sway
A needle lost in hay
A baffled brook
Which sense mistook and led down
To a peaceless somber bay
Which way do you turn towards muster or yearn
I cannot see the font of spring the dead season’s chimes ring
Appalling life abysmal day
The foolery the what to say
But I can sing of freedom’s wing of hope in this thing
Was I kissing freedom’s wing open this thing
We call it life we nurse the dead we dismiss reason instead
Behold how none of us ever can decide
What makes human
Our sires laid caprice with need
And furnished egg with seed
Cradle schism caught in long haul

Far
Track 5 from the fall 1999 Confession of Faith release
Still Born
I saw me far to the ocean
With kneading hands the water it came
And changed the dirt that I had brought
Into clay I knew had my name
I saw me then devoid of
Grief that lies a wound so bare
From face to face we hasten stride
I’m too fucking tired to sit and stare
At this world at these hands
At failing pride’s sweet demands
While catering to ourselves
The water is siphoned away
Where is any hope into this dead world
Defiling my flag unfurled
I came myself upon the field
And backpedal reeled
Oh oh we caved and kneeled
Duty found withering day misnomered as fray
And chasing the pieces life brushed away
Leading to where any moment upon
The terraformed center core
I cannot feel the weight of temple wall
Regodless I crawl day unto day unto day
The merciless familiar sway
So much to think much more to feel
Seldom is seen seldom is real
On and on it leads nowhere
A pseudo cause with shitty flair
I am nothing of what I believe
I pass the time the air I thieve
I ask for reprieve
Change my sentence from wit to plain shit
And cast me to the wind
I never will rescind
My path is laid bare
Either truth or nothing’s there
Hope beckons with deadpan stare

Track 6 from the fall 1999 Confession of Faith release
Still Born
I’m stationed across from a piecemealed land
And my faith seems so hidden faceless I stand
A deceiver with stringence as sand
Though my god is the whole of everything
That we see or can’t be seen
And it all falls through my heart’s drowning hand
Into deep pools of sensation
Extinguishing the light for my way
Towards rebirth and progress
But in dismay I fumbling say
Driveled words when I pray
In blank verse with blank heart
I can not find the point to start
So come follow me
And I’ll drape us in offal and blight
And I’ll sing for the moment
Sing how love is trite
But it’s back the other way
And now our shades are as night
In my heart in my mind
The eye seems blind
And suspect all endeavors
Of what my life’s confusion may find

Barrow
Track 7 from the fall 1999 Confession of Faith release
Still Born
Barrow
I barrowed the downs
Sift a mightier way
The comatosing start
Another blistering day
Meager stairs step away
The brandishing of new
I call to me more care
The caring was bonebare
And worthier days
I long to hold your gaze
To see what fruited trees
Can be picked off of my knees
I care not for dissent I fear not the fruit
Just shatter me a name
Like god is savior
I tantalize the seedier skies
My eyes make contact to
The motion apathy describes
And I can stagger more than you
When I choose like I do
I beckoned a cause
Pleading please no pause
See my heart is here
With hope I shall never fear
Creed dented cross bent
Burning so morose
Does hatred cleanse
Your bleeding wounds so close
To your beating heart
Does indifference impart
A fleeting sense of recompense
Just show me my exit and I will leave you here

Stale Sin Sale
Track 8 from the fall 1999 Confession of Faith release
Still Born
It was a shimmering night
The veiled city as a momentary lapse
And motion sifting away the psyche ovasive
As love in low moment twas a nation like that
In which I fell into when nowhere I had
Chosen it like life the rest and gaze unto the moment
That we see truth and obey underlit and I’m under that day
I fear that it is all gone away
In the maze of a fickle haze
Given receiveth I smitten devise
Swift and decisive hell I can not face
Motion memory or grace
Death at the end then I need more
In my mind days writhe and I find
Anything that gives me strength
But all is feeble but grace
Come soft sweet melody
Bring candor apparently
Fortuitousness offense lingers long
It ain’t hard to sound sound deformed
In the life’s blood a jumbled eden
And all purpose seems lost and nondescript
A shattered easter a careless blunder-ring
I found and placed upon thee calling MIA
The funniest shit
In all your name my lone triage
Sites only fade a man self-made
Is it I is it in
Is in N is it stale
Is it R easy sin
Is it I easy sale
As I came I nowhere found
A site that simply looked good
Or anything that I need more love
It all as sunder is cast
Stand I see my hand
Dead against my life as sand
Glass is broke often enough
But love does stand

What Happens Then
Track 9 from the fall 1999 Confession of Faith release
Still Born
What Happens Then
I brought the detriment
Of carelessly spent
Consuming morsels
Cast off me as I went
Towards freedom’s rings
A smatter of things
Seem to cadence glorify
I caught distant prisoner’s scent
How dost thou feel
When tin and steel
We pass off as gold
And we try to hold
The passion slips
And solder fails
As truth rips
The fuck out of everything
And what have us now to bring
More shit and failure

Track 10 from the fall 1999 Confession of Faith release
Still Born
Glamour Capital
Is purpose careless and free with no more muster in me
I reach Berlin wall hear fear shrewdly call
Rally comrades flock wound down truth like clock
I never wanted in me these pattered orthodoxy
Seeds sought patiently down and on one knee
Hear peace banter a cry see assassin slit on sly
Crowning achievement in bloomed discord
Calling the maker like leper ignored were our hearts poured
March ye towards victory then tell the how why
In a madrigal all that does stand strong it shall remain star
For how long before it dwindles is it billions of years that even ends
Seek you the future then seekest the past does anything last
We swagger to the new start of all the tumbling down
I chartered to the set sun the sight was all but done
Not sure win you such hands as stalwart to the machine
Searches only destroy as someone carelessly seen
Soul judging from on high too forward for the reply
Butchered in the extreme as sorrow in Dis does teem
Shining do all they so watch is all they say
Recutting the pieces hoping for new day
