#lyrics also present on Wolves and Farther On

Title: Ziltoid Goes Home

Artist: The Devin Townsend Project

Album: Z² - Dark Matters

Trivia: The “You’re running away from me” parts of the lyrics have later been used in different variations on some bonus tracks from Transcendence, namely the demos Farther On and Wolves. While the “Tell me what you want from me” part directly references Planet Smasher from the first Ziltoid The Omniscient.

Transcribed lyrics below:

Into the void we go to fuel our own volition! Between the fall of man, the gods and the submission! To each their own they say while promising salvation!

The god is money man, we'll fall into remission! (THE GOD IS MONEY MAN, WE'LL FALL INTO REMISSION!)

Fight!

..We will fight! (..WE WILL FIGHT!)

Woah! Incestuous desires will feed your own addiction! To face your fears require you burst into the question! Do not deny the possibility of weakness! Condemns the mind and draws the soul into the sickness!

All.. You're running away from me.. I fall.. in love with you.. A way out is the way..!

You are your own mind!

(..How? ..How? ..How? ..Ho-o-ow? ..How? ..How? ..How? ..Ho-o-ow?)

I.. hold on..! I.. hold on..!

FEAR.. IN THE FACE OF CREATION!

LIES IN THE EYES OF GOD! (Holding on! Holding on! Holding on! Holding on! Holding on! Holding on!)

You are the face of God and, (YOU ARE THE FACE OF GOD AND,)

You hold the fates you're calling! (YOU HOLD THE FATES YOU'RE CALLING!)

Fear not your words! (FEAR NOT YOUR WORDS!) (Fear not your words..)

(OH!) ..I know!

(Sub! Sub! Sub! Sub! Sub! Sub! Sub! Sub! Sub! Sub! Sub! Sub!)

(WOAH!) You've been submitted to the force of my creation! (WOAH!) You have the son of light to feed your own vocation! (WOAH!) And every son of man who falls to this transmission! (WOAH!) See as the fallen ones come further to the mission!

Tell me what you-! - Want from-!

All.. You're running away from me.. I fall.. in love with you.. A way out is the way..!

All.. You're running away from me.. I fall.. in love with you.. A way out is the way!! (..Here we go!)

Home we go!

I.. hold on..! I.. hold on..!

(OM..! Home..!) Oh God of solar mind! (OM..! Home..!) Now let my spirit rise!

You are the face of God and, (YOU ARE THE FACE OF GOD AND,)

You hold the fates you're calling! (YOU HOLD THE FATES YOU'RE CALLING!)

Fear not your words! (FEAR NOT YOUR WORDS!) (Fear not your words..)

Never be afraid, (Never be afraid,)

Of this power! (Of this power!)

Connect this, through everything forever! (Connect this, through everything forever!)

Title: Farther On (Demo)

Artist: The Devin Townsend Project

Album: Holding Patterns (Transcendence Bonus Disc)

Transcribed lyrics below:

She called you out of your waiting area in your heart She tried, you're waiting here, you.. (where did you go?)

Oh, you're running away, pay the door. But you're free! And if you let me go on home We promise to return Just listen: it leads you farther on! On! I want to know if you're waiting, is it because you're blind? U-oh! I haven't got the time, no! Oh, you're running away, pay the door. 'Cause you know! And if you let me go on home We promise to return Just listen: it leads you farther on! Oh! And if you let me go on home We promise to return! Just listen: it leads you farther on! On! On!  U-oh!
