Hi, they call me Zeke, I was born in a small tribe just above the equator
I'm a 6th generation, 17 year old Mayan & yes, I met the invader
but he will come later, to begin, I must acknowledge & say amen to the divine & the bad
Our gods & our devils, our law & our past, the flawless & trash...but they said I made them mad.
They blame me that we haven't had good crop, since the day I was alive
And now every adult said it's my fault, that most of my friends have gone away and died
But why? - I searched & prayed for an answer up above, I realize life gets rough
But why do I get God's disgust? We gave Gods, gold, animals, but seemed nothing was enough.
Then they asked for God's Advice, he showed them "Sacrifice", now I wait, worthless in prison
I put myself here. It's clear what I'm worth.. because now my curse is their religion
Then he came. Strange. A change in the atmosphere, the rain hadn't come this year
But a thunderstorm emerged, this wonder soon diverged into the calming drear.
He wore black, but in his eyes survived the stars, alive even though he's far
From his home, just like me I thought..different; but strange sometimes is discard
He spoke to the people, "Make light of your evils" "For every barrier we believe"
"You must now see! What stands between you and me, becomes everything we cannot achieve!!"
He took every enemy, every war, & placed them underneath his father sun
He said "Look at these... Enemies?, these are people! but he became bothersome
According to the king, who was distorting everything, in favor of currency
His gain was fame! A legacy to maintain, his heart slowly growing colder with urgency
"A sham this man!" said the King, "His plan is damned - he'll disrupt everything!"
Then publicly denounced the man, "You must understand! Here the devil sings!"
They banished him, "Your not welcome" dismantled him - of mankind's pride
But nothing damaged him, as they tried, to strike their fear into his stride
He sat in his jail next to mine, reflected in time, where my eyes
Now lifeless without shine, I told him my crime, he reclined, then sighed
Then he picked up a rock, brushed off the dust and held it to illuminate it in shade
This is my gift, he said "A rock will create mountains, but it will never climb it's creation
"As much as you love, you hate, as much as you do, you don't..
As much as you will, you try, a rock can skip but unlike you, it will never float!"
"Be who you are, don't worry to chance" & the next day they came with my life to take
To the God's above, but then the mysterious man said.. "Wait"...
"I am the devil you speak of, If you spare the boy, I'll bring you, your rain"
They let me go and killed him, left up to the Gods.. I guess he took the blame
Because for the next 4 decades our plants grew to fruition, I know now at last
Humanity is only how much and how far we're willing to grow from our past
Anguish
it is my unseen lover
it caresses my dreams
and weaves beauteous nightmares
my closest friend, it walks with me
our hands entwined in better days
and cradles me tight against its breast as I falter
though feared by so many,
it is comforting in its consistency,
in its dependability
always there, it never disappoints
close enough to feel its cold breath envelope me,
it feels like home as it moves like fog through the cracks in my soul
And my heart can almost feel whole in its bitter embrace

For those of you that are unaware or don't pay attention to American politics, let me introduce you to Presidential candidate Michele Bachmann.
Her political platform is anti-women's choice, anti-gay, anti-porn, anti-immigrant, anti-science, and pro-slavery. Don't laugh.
For the last several years, she has proved time and time again that she is nothing more than a religious zealot whose brain is a raging electrical storm of divine visions and paranoid delusions. She believes that the Chinese are plotting to replace the dollar bill, that light bulbs are killing our dogs and cats, and that God personally chose her to become both an IRS attorney who would spend years hounding taxpayers and a raging anti-tax Tea Party crusader against big government.
...and all of that would have been fine if she wasn't so popular. The thought that this woman could me to next president of the United States should frighten you. It certainly frightens me.
I can't offer her much.
Lack of confidence kicked me into abyss.
I think my secrets will never be revealed.
No matter how she do,i still love her.
Slightly confused by all the people claiming that TKOL is Colin's album ... have these people not been listening? Personally, since Airbag I have been very aware of Colin's brilliant bass-playing. Further, when you watch them live you see that the man is ALWAYS on the beat, even when he's not playing his instrument. As Thom et al pursue their chilly detachment, Colin remains the throbbing, banging heart of Radiohead.
Cheers,
Spiralise.

Jack White confirmed that Radiohead spent some time recording at his Third Man Studio
In an interview with BBC Radio 6 Music , Jack White confirmed that Radiohead spent some time recording at his Third Man Studio in Nashville. White didn't say much on the subject, noting that he was not involved.
"I don't know how much to tell about it except that I didn't play with them or produce it," he said. "But they came and recorded at Third Man. I don't know what else they want to be said about that, so that's all I probably can say!"
During Radiohead's epic 25-song headlining set at Bonaroo last month, frontman Thom Yorke dedicated "Supercollider" to White while hinting at a possible collaboration.
"This song is for Jack White," said Yorke during the group's set . "We're not gonna tell you why, but you'll find out."
While it doesn't look like an actual collaboration occurred, maybe a patented Third Man Blue Series single from Radiohead is on the horizon. Fingers crossed.
