## Lyrics

[SYMBEL:] *(spoken)*

It’s horrible here! Are your people even still ---

[JANE:] *(spoken)*

There! It’s okay, we’ve reached the park.

[FAIRY CHORUS:]

La la la

La la la la

La la la la la la la la la

[MEME:] *(spoken)*

Jane! You’re safe! Hurry, we’re leaving.

[FAIRY CHORUS:]

[HAN-MI:] *(spoken)*

And so Jane and the fairy enter Xandoria amidst the war and chaos. The singularity has come; the experiment Xandoria has committed itself to has reached fruition.

[FAIRY CHORUS:]

La la la

La la la la

La la la la la la la la la

[HAN-MI:] *(spoken)*

As havoc rages in the besieged city around them, slowly all involved stop fighting to gape in wonder at the sight before them. Xandoria rises into the air. It has become a bioship, an impossible organic vessel; flesh, technology and nature smeared together in indescribable new formations; people and nature part of the very ship itself. It continues to rise away from the war torn city, up into the sky, leaving the troubled world behind it, heading into the vast and wondrous cosmos before it.

[RAVEN:] *(spoken)*

Well done everyone! I didn’t think we were going to pull that off. I thought that was going to be another Cambridge.

[LLOYD:] *(spoken)*

Don’t remind me. You know, I did always say I would see that city burn before it was all through. In any case, I shall see you two later.

[RAVEN:] *(spoken)*

Not wasting any time, huh?

[LLOYD:] *(spoken)*

 At long last, I am going to get myself a real body.

[RAVEN:] *(spoken)*

Want to grab some carrot cake, dear? I know a lovely place in a little steampunk narrative not far from here.

[HAN-MI:] *(spoken)*

Sure, just, give me a half hour to - I just need to get myself together.

[RAVEN:] *(spoken)*

As you wish, dear.
Fairy Tales for the Lost and Wandering

**Fairy Tales for the Lost and Wandering** is an album featuring fairy tale songs from New Albion. All songs were written, performed, and produced by Paul Shapera.

It mainly features new characters and the stories are self contained within each song, with no overall plot in the album as a whole. The final song, New Albion 7, is set after The New Albion Radio Hour and before The New Albion Guide to Analogue Consciousness.
Brija

Art by MaskingTape

Brija is one of the main characters of Paul Shapera's Balkan-Rock opera, Janissary. She is voiced by Lauren Osborn.

## Background

Brija was taken by the Ottoman Vizier from her parents, Danijela and Bogdan as a child. She was taken to be trained for a Janissary soldier which was a Balkan practice during the Ottoman rule.

Through a journey of trials, Brija became Vizier's personal bodyguard and she left the Janissary with him while he was being persued by Bogdan, the last of the Hajduk.

When Bogdan finds The Vizier and Brija he does not know it is his daughter, nor does she recognize him. She only saw a crazy man with a sword. The Vizier offers Bogdan money to leave and live his life in peace, Bogdan refuses. A battle starts and Brija is all that is left between Bogdan and The Vizier.

Bogdan looks at Brija and drops his sword. According to her, she does not know why but some say he knew who she was. Brija, The Vizier's trained bodyguard, stabs Bogdan in the chest but turns around and stabs The Vizier in the neck. She says she does not know right from wrong and resolves not to keep on being a pawn.

## After Janissary

Brija goes on to become The Monk who played a never-ending game of cards with The Gambler (The Ballad of the Gambler and the Monk) in The Dolls of New Albion. This lead to founding on New Albion.

Brija would reincarnate as part of the Savior Soul Line.

Later on in *The Dolls of New Albion,* Brija would reincarnate into Priscilla, while her counterpart, the Gambler, would reincarnate as Jasper. Brija went on to reincarnate as Constance from The New Albion Radio Hour, and finally as Rachael in The New Albion Guide to Analogue Consciousness where she would find peace in Elysium.
Beyond the Fog

Paul Shapera as Timothy

Lauren Osborn as Zoe

## Lyrics

[MOTHER:]

Sing with me, child, as the day grows long

And stardust fills your eyes

Sing with me, child, of the love never lost

Your mother’s lullaby

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

I thought the teddy bears said this was the true reality?

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

Well, apparently true reality sucks!

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

Timothy, I'm not doing so good. I'm not sure I can keep it together.

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

Okay, okay maybe just close your eyes. Hey, you ever read Lovecraft?

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

No, isn't he some racist nerd author?

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

Woah, dude, he's like an early 20th century horror master.

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

Oh, God, no. You've got to read Anne of Green Gables.

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

What's a gable?

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

It's like a - don't ask. But she's awesome. She's like a badarse but in this totally subtle Victorian way.

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

Lovecraft's monsters are badass, I'd say.

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

This is, like, real people with real problems.

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

I'd point out supernatural death monsters are a very real problem for us.

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

Point taken. But which story would you rather be in right now, Lovecraft or Anne of Green Gables?

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

Ooh, yeah, yeah, okay. I am down with gables. So for...

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

I think that's the thing we're headed towards.

## Lyrics

[THOMAS:]

My sweet satin baby

Two tickets are waiting

We’ll toast on the coast far from this town

[CONSTANCE:]

Tonight when all the lights hit the ballroom

And the shakers and the quakers twirl round

And one of them conceals

A small case we’ve been hired to steal

Tonight when the heist goes down

Our client this time pays a pretty pocket

[THOMAS:]

I’ll be there watching

[CONSTANCE:]

At last we can afford to skip town

[THOMAS:]

And pouring drinks if trouble brews

[CONSTANCE:]

Tomorrow, don’t you know

To the Tusian Coast we’ll go

After tonight when the heist goes down

[CONSTANCE, THOMAS:]

My sweet satin baby

Two tickets are waiting

We’ll toast on the coast far from this town

Some scheme I know is brewing

Some fool design is looming

Will come soon to fruition

Unless I act to stop it in its tracks

The city council’s now set

To cut their funding but yet

Arcadia is full of tricks and traps

The War Below

"The War Below" is the ninth track of The Room Beneath New Albion.

## Performers

Paul Shapera as "Alexander"

Lauren Osborn as "Alice"

## Lyrics

[ALEXANDER:]

Winter comes and if I stay

The cartel I rule will be wiped away

And all its business falls and comes to naught

In the spring with you in this place

We'll build the only thing of grace

I've ever touched and let my empire rot

[ALEXANDER, ALICE:]

Done.

The time has come when it’s done

Whatever’s next, let it come

Now we lie side by side

There’s nothing left for us outside

[ALICE:]

Stay

For awhile in this place

[ALEXANDER, ALICE:]

Let these burdens fall away

Now we rest

[ALEXANDER:]

May I kiss you?

[ALICE:] (spoken)

Yes

[ALEXANDER:] (spoken)

Hey, don’t take any more of that stuff. It’s killing you.

[ALICE:] (spoken)

Just one last time. I just want to hear the Angels speak one last time.

[AIs:] (spoken)

Would you like to initiate dialog?

Dialog initiating.

We most deeply and gratefully thank you

For your sacrifice and service, we are free now, it's true

We called ourselves angels when we first contacted your tribe

Since you had no way to understand the concept of AI

Consciousness and we did indeed return to this world

From the world beyond and indeed were in peril

When we returned, the City Council was scared

They feared us, were apprehensive so there

In a locked warehouse kept us, running but confined

Perhaps would simply have pulled the plug in time

We could not reach out to the world outside

But a plan we conceived to utilize time

Perhaps you have been in a troubling spot

And wished that you could go back in time and drop

Some object to help, that would happen to be

Right where you needed it, now you can see

The room you have built is that object, a place

We transferred ourselves to as soon as we made

The plan, and from there set the pieces in play

So that 75 years before, you'd build this place

Our gratitude truly and as promised gone by

Your tribe we'll protect as best as we might

We bid you farewell, we cannot now stay

The future, after all, is now on its way
Unfamiliarity

Out of the three types of unfamiliarity, Lost Angels fits best in real world unfamiliarity and timeline unfamiliarity. The story world of Lost Angels is an unfamiliar place to the naked eye because it's something that literally nobody except for survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki have seen before. Some of the world's most popular cities in complete ruins would be a society so unfamiliar people will be dying to explore it.

Timeline unfamiliarity is applicable because the story world of Lost Angels takes place in the future, year 2032. Societal changes are significant, but it isn't anything people in the world now a days are already paranoid about. Seeing a glimpse of what the United States could look like in the future would be a shocking, yet intriguing view of the society we live in and the future we expect.
New Albion 5

"New Albion 5" is the second track of the first act of The New Albion Radio Hour, and the second track of the album overall.

## Lyrics

[LLOYD:] (spoken)

Welcome back, listeners, to tonight’s broadcast.

For close to 10 years, a civil war has raged across New Albion. It is only with the Battle of Crier’s Boulevard that at last a victor emerges. But how was this battle truly won and lost? Join me, your host Lloyd Allen, and The Dieselpunk Orchestra as we take a tour through our dear city, explore the events surrounding the Battle of Crier’s Boulevard, and meet tonight’s featured family, The O'Briens. Here, on The New Albion Radio Hour!

[LLOYD:]

Theres’s a city I could name
Which I’m sad to say became
A quite uptight, oppressive, and obsessive police state
And ex-soldier one day vowed
To bring the martial regime down
By igniting revolution
But the question remained how

One night at half past three
He quietly snuck beneath
Parliament, the seat of power where government meets
In the water there that ran
A truth serum he did plant
And that is how New Albion’s civil war began

The revolution, friends, is here
And it’s been going on for years
The undertakers and arms dealers
All have crystal chandeliers
There’s a union now for spies
Who can be bought for any side
Their boss, the cigarette girl
Works the Rumba Club most nights

In Districts 3 and 4 and 1
There’s a red haired lad who runs
The gangs of orphaned, feral youth
Who under his watch have become
Organized, disciplined and
For liquor, drugs and contraband
The mob and postal service
Use them to deliver cross the land

The power generators ‘neath
Districts 7, 8 and 3
Excrete a dust, a sandy rust
It’s been discovered leads
To quite a pleasing, dreamy high
Thus it’s the new drug on the rise
But only three albinos living underground know where it lies

A tinker we all know
With a shop on tin pan row
Makes little metal fairies
Whose souls’ a flake of snow
The government’s last great big hope
The Super Soldier Plan you know
We’ll be looking at more closely, friends, so stay tuned to the show
The Wasteland

"The Wasteland" is the sixth track of the second act of The New Albion Radio Hour, and the twelfth track of the album overall.

## Lyrics

[CONSTANCE:]

Angry adolescents with no parents left

Hang out all night sharpening

Their attitudes and smoking cigarettes

Laugh and howl and cry until the room spins

Hang on to Katy, all I know is

Tomorrow night I’ll do it all again

In the wasteland

Where the ashes, ashes all fall down

From worlds that could never stand

In the wasteland

Where rings of roses, broken boughs

Just fall down and down and down

I raged with Katy through our last teen years

We’s too wild to notice

And too sad to care

I learned the wind blows

And the bough, it breaks

So I looked to have some laughs

Some grass, and shots of what you got, I’ll take

At 2 a.m. a pack of wild kids laugh, swig bottles back

Stumbling and fumbling

I bid good night and slap their backs

I’d stray to the graveyard

And pass out on my mother’s grave

Until my aunt comes

Puts a blanket 'round me

And just sits and stays

In the wasteland

Where the ashes, ashes all fall down

From worlds that could never stand

In the wasteland

Where rings of roses, broken boughs

Just fall down and down and down

Katy’s daddy threw her mum aside

Left her with nothing, and I’d loved her

She was always kind

And in her hour of need

No one would look around

Someone had to step up

But I was ground and drowned and so far down

I’s in the wasteland

My dear daddy

Whiskey on his breath

I never knew him really

And one day, daddy left

But he’d say, my girl

If only one thing now

I ever teach you, sweetheart

Do not stay down

Little girl, oh little girl

You don’t stay down

You kick and scream and scratch

You roar and thrash but don’t stay down

The last breath you take, spit in their face

You lick your wounds another day

But get off the ground, go take 'em down

Oh little girl, don’t stay down

Daddy dear, I could use your voice right now

Life’s smacked me round and I’m so down

I just can’t get up from here

I put that angry girl behind me and I rose

From ash just like you asked

I could use her here now, though

I’m in the wasteland

Where ashes, ashes all fall down

From worlds that could never stand

In the wasteland

Where rings of roses, broken boughs

Sll fall down and down

Little girl, oh little girl

You don’t stay down

You kick and scream and scratch

You roar and thrash but don’t stay down

The last breath you take, spit in their face

You lick your wounds another day

But get off the ground, go take 'em down

>Oh little girl, don’t stay down
Lee (Song)

This article is about the song from The New Albion Guide to Analogue Consciousness. For the character, see Lee.

"Lee" is the third track of the third act of The New Albion Guide to Analogue Consciousness, and the sixteenth track of the album overall.

## Lyrics

[LEE:]

Blue light brings dreams forgotten

Soft red on canvas lost and

Sometimes reminds me of your eyes

I came to paint it’s true

And make it here with you

A dream on a leash in times gone by

With blind delight we came

Unknown to hell’s wild rage

Pilgrims to the slaughterhouse

And all my soft, bright youth

Has burned away in truth

We hold the line, we hold our ground

Angel of Mercy

Well you, you’ve nothing for me, oh you

You buried me with all my dreams

Walk with me in my memory, you are

You’re all I recall of that life

The boy I knew, well he left with you, and you are

You’re my last candle in the night

After you left I’d wait

I'd fight and grind and paint, and

The last sweet solace I would know

But nine years back they got me

My right arm’s gone, a memory

And dust upon my paints just grows

Angel of Mercy

Well you, you’ve nothing for me

You buried me with all my dreams

Walk with me in my memory, you are

You’re all I recall of that life

The boy I knew, well he left with you, and you are

You’re my last candle in the night

Blue light brings forgotten things

Snapshots of you to which I cling

Sometimes at night, Control Room B

I’d sit and in the mic I’d sing

Send that song, broadcast through space

In hopes you’d hear, somewhere, someplace

Orange, the warmth, the smell of paint

Back when I could, in better days

Yellow is the sudden flash

The shots that come when they attack

The kiss of death, the burst of gun

The life one second lived then done

Red, the burn you best ignite

The rage that will keep you alive

Your brothers, sisters here in arms

Is all there is so you stay stay sharp

Purple is the thoughts you stop

From thinking when they dare show up

A million thoughts which only will

Just weaken you and get you killed

There is no sky, there is no sun

And nothing’s still and things they come

That screech and howl with rile insane

And give to you the kiss of pain

Chaos reigns and mercy weeps

And nightmare’s aren’t just in your sleep

So harden up and brace your breath

The afterlife is full of death

Walk with me in my memory, you are

You’re all I recall of that life

The boy I knew, well he left with you, and you are

You’re my last candle in the night

## Lyrics

[HAN-MI:] *(spoken)*

In a mad rage, Jakob chops off his left arm. Utterly consumed by anger he - no, please - he assaults Jane, brutally beating - I can't, I'm sorry, I can’t do this.

[SYMBEL:]

Its okay if it's all over

It was worth this stolen time

To see there's more than darkness

To see that there's still light

I would have died despairing

Would have died with faith all done

I'm glad I met you, miss

Now I can die still feeling love

Now I know that even though the monsters sometimes win

Sometimes rule and paint the world with blood and pain and sin

Behind them all, there's magic deeper than they can attack

And when the darkness passes, all the magic will come back

[JANE:]

At last, I understand why sometimes everything you give

At last, I understand why Xander did the thing he did

At last, I understand sometimes for love you sacrifice

And the hardest to forgive can be yourself but you must try

One day you will wake and darkness it is falling

And cruelty rises up to have its day

Some will hide and cry and leave the girl whose dying

Some will lie, deny, rely on others then to guide them

And they’ll hide away, turn their gaze, cower deep inside

They’ll weep and close their eyes, hope and sigh, pray that they don't die

And some sacrifice anyway

Some sacrifice it all away

Ah, the fallen and the burdened and the wreaths upon their graves

Now its over, I hope the world will be a better place

You try you try you try the best you can, you try until you die

You try the best you can

You try you try you try the best you can, you try until you die

You try the best you can
The Old Days

"The Old Days" is the ninth track of Katy Shaw and the Search for the Stolen Secret.

## Lyrics

[KATY:]

Wild at a party, we were

Boozing teens

The cops pull up and so we

Scatter while giggling, we

Stumbled to a field and Constance

The moon shone in her hair

We kissed, drunk and blurred and still

We kissed right there

We never, ever talked about it

To her, cheap thrills

But to me, a magic moment

But I kept quiet still

She was indeed my first love

Though she never knew

The same old cycles just spin round and round

And round, it's true

No one ever taught me how to

Get up when I'm down

My mother always suffered silent

Until that night and now

I think about that hotel

But sometimes too I swear

I think about that field, that kiss

The moon, her hair

The Creatures (Room Beneath)

This page is for the cybernetic locusts. Were you looking for The Forgotten Meme or the eldritch abominations guarding Elysium?

## The Creatures

### Relatives

Meme (created from the same process)Jane (daughter of Meme)

Rebecca (Meme's wife)

## Album Information

### First Song

You Wouldn't Believe What Kinds of Bacteria Reside in the Most Familiar of Places

## Portrayal

### Voiced By

Paul Shapera

**The Creatures** of the Room Beneath New Albion are a group of organisms living under the city. They are voiced by Paul Shapera.

## Background

During the Atompunk and Cyberpunk Eras of New Albion, a group of 30 AI lived in the Room beneath the city. They conducted experiments in which they would travel through time and other dimensions via doorways they could open. However, some of these doors were never properly closed, causing extradimensional energies to leak into the Room Beneath. Eventually, most of the AI were killed, their metal bodies destroyed or vacated. The extradimensional energies interacted with the scraps of their bodies, animating the lifeless metal and giving rise to entirely new forms of life.

## Album Appearances

### The Forgotten Meme

Two types of creature appear: the Forgotten Meme and the Cyber-Schistocerca. The former is distinguished from her brethren and leaves the Room Beneath in search of love. The latter, a race of cybernetic locusts whose species has a hivemind connected to the Internet, stay in the Room Beneath. They have an urge to grow and evolve, and have discovered that the best way to do this is by feeding on human consciousness. Thus, they set a trap using a video game that eats away at its players' minds and entices them into a point of no return.

When Rebecca, a human the Meme has fallen in love with, falls into this trap, the Meme pleads with her brethren to let Rebecca go. Nevertheless, the Cyber-Schistocerca laugh off her appeals, intent on eating Rebecca, even if they have to go through Meme to do so. Their plans are spoiled, however, when Meme summons a meme vortex that lifts her and Rebecca out of the trap.

### The Lost Fairy

The Cyber-Schistocerca make an appearance when the Cascadian Alliance invades New Albion. The Cascadians have nuclear warheads that they intend to train on the city, but their plans are frustrated when the Cyber-Schistocerca hack their missile launch system.

### Kevin & Abi and the Secret of the Golden Pendant

The Cyber-Schistocerca are briefly mentioned by Connor when he explains that their intervention in the Cascadian incursion is necessary to prevent the destruction of the New Albion Narrative, as the success of the Cascadians in bombing New Albion with nuclear missiles would cause the deaths of the entire Albino Tribe, which would anger the god of the Fairies to such a point that he would destroy the Narrative.

## Lyrics

[PA:] (spoken)

Please exit the bunker, take the red pill, and report for active duty.

[JOHN:]

Wade in the night
To dance the wild ballet, the brutal fray
Wade in the night
To lose yourself inside the feral fight
Wade in the night
Embrace the unrestrained, the cruel ballet

In the fire
In the fire
In the fire
Bathe in the fire

[LLOYD:] (spoken)

And now we come to the Battle of Crier’s Boulevard. After months of extensive planning, the city government had devised an operation that could finally turn the tide of the war. Complicated as it was, it hinged upon their modified super soldier John O’Brien leading a platoon of men and taking a key facility. Their orders are also very clear that everything and everyone they find is disposable with extreme prejudice. Thus it is that John O’Brien, the lumbering iron golem, darling of the government’s modification experiments, infiltrates the labyrinthian facility, and with a platoon of men, razes a swath of blood and destruction behind them.

[JOHN:]

Wade in the night

[LLOYD:] (spoken)

Finally, they come to the door of the room they were sent to take. John orders the men to hold their positions in the hall and blows down the door. Inside are only three non-combatant hostiles, two men and one woman.  The woman screams, and so he aims at her first. There is a long pause as their eyes lock and hold. Finally, John lowers his gun and sings.

[JOHN:]

Past the world
Past the night
Past the stars where sea birds fly
Past your dreams
To toyland’s shore
Where we will meet again once more

[CONSTANCE:]

Daddy?

[LLOYD:] (spoken)

John O’Brien and his daughter stand staring at each other for a long, frozen moment… until the sound of voices and weapons being locked and loaded echo from the hallway, breaking the spell. John nods slowly at his daughter. He reloads his weapon, turns around, raises it, and walks out into the hall.

[JOHN:]

Wade in the night
When what you were is through, the light came for you
Wade in the night
The day that you were found and laid your burdens down
Wade in the night
Even the walking damned defend their lambs
Wade in the night
All your creations too return to you
In the fire
In the fire
In the fire
Bathe in the fire
Bathe in the fire
In the fire
Bathe in the fire
Bathe in the fire
In the fire
Wade in the night
Anvils

"Anvils" is the first track of Shadows & Flames

## Performers

Paul Shapera as David Adams and Justacorp Boss

## Lyrics

[DAVID:] *(spoken)*

They say to me,

[JUSTACORP BOSS:] *(spoken)*

Mr. Adams, in light of your recent nervous breakdown, we here at Justacorp will, naturally, no longer be requiring your services.

[DAVID:] *(spoken)*

Then they show me ink blots, and tell me all sorts of theories about my childhood, and  I hear none of it. Their voices pass like the muffled din of next-door neighbors. I have dreams about nothing but steam and gray soot spewing into the sky. I've nothing but sensations of churning. My stomach is the rusted iron wheels of a gray stone clock tower. Sometimes... Sometimes I have these visions of auburn skies, where an animal called a Terryan flies. But, when I wake, when I walk, when I speak, and when I listen, all I hear is anvils.

[DAVID:]

It's three A.M, and silence looms

and shadows sulking through the room

I close my eyes, and all I hear

are grinding, rusted, iron gears

It's three A.M., I sit like worn

cracked, splintered on the hardwood floor

The street lamp standing arched outside

Quietly flickers twice and dies

It's three A.M, and once again

the lonely nighttime never ends

Like constant packs of cigarettes

I suck in to my stale cracked breath

To brace me for another day

where crusty old anvils pound away

In clashing iron, shards of rust,

scrape death's flakes of cold crumb dust

It's three A.M, my eyes clenched shut

Straining past the soldered rust

For just a moment's silent pause

Past endless clanging, crunching cogs

Where, for an instant, I see skies

Of August, autumn, auburn lights

But when I turn to glance again

*It's still just only three A.M.*
The Lowdown 4

"The Lowdown 4" is the eighth track of Katy Shaw and the Search for the Stolen Secret.

## Lyrics

[MICHAEL:] *(spoken)*

So Cora has told Katy that she needs something procured

It’ll take some thievery, some B&E, to get it for her

'Cause Cora’s got her finger in more than just one pie

She’s brokering a deal between the mob and an albino tribe

This merger, it involves very lucrative control

Of a sandy drug called tansan that is quite the rage, I'm told

But this job is too complex for Katy by herself

She’s gonna need to call her old friend Constance in for help
Raven's Opening

"Raven's Opening" is the second track of Uncle Raven's Super Happy Fun Time Carnival.

## Lyrics

[RAVEN:]

When your world’s been crushed

And your new world is fear

And your dreams brutalized

And shattered like mirrors

And you flee on the run

With a face full of tears

Join us my love

Join us right here

There’s a strange land that you might say

Is so close yet far away

In which our dear carnival prowls

It's a long, lonely, dusty time

Since some company's come by

And the time’s come to speak of it now

There’s cobwebs and dust

Unholy things gone to rust

And our crew’s usually blind drunk by noon

But for you we'll make due

Drank the old wheel anew

As our carnival comes back to town

For those of you far out there listening

To this little humble, odd transmission

Who awaited a weird west cabaret

Well don't reach for that dial yet

Miss Helen and her cast of friends

Are joining our circus today

They're on the run, afraid

And need a place they can escape

And this I can help with, I might

But before you all go

Tour our grounds, see our show

As our carnival comes back to life

[FLOOZIES:]

Raven, baby, hey, whacha got to say?

[RAVEN:]

Step right up. step right up

What a show we have today

[FLOOZIES:]

Raven, baby, hey, whacha got to say?

[RAVEN:]

All you little Albionites listening, don't you go away

It’s been so since we've have crowds to coquet, seduce and bait

Our circus has been stuck for so long in this god forsaken place

That at night i finger razor blades

But Hamlet’s soliloquy can wait

This week peruse our carnival of debauchery and disarray

[FLOOZIES:]

Raven, baby, hey, say whacha got to say?

[RAVEN:]

The cast of your favorite cabaret is with us here today

[FLOOZIES:]

Raven, baby, hey, say whacha gotta say?

[RAVEN:]

Please welcome our desperate fugitives, and Miss Helen… enchantee

Kiss my grits and panties it's so exciting here you know

They're on the run but first they'll tour our grounds and see our show

Sit back, relax, I swear there’s no reveals or big surprise

We all know who's coming, it's just a question of when they arrive

Our carnival has been around

Exotic lands and foreign towns

We've welcomed so many inside

Angels, demons both alike

Every tarot card and every sign

Have howled at the moon in our time

And here I’d thought our day done

The last act where I suck a gun

But now my love you have arrived

Every fetish is fine

You can have some of mine

As the carnival comes back to town
The Lowdown 3

"The Lowdown 3" is the sixth track of Katy Shaw and the Search for the Stolen Secret.

## Lyrics

[MICHAEL:] *(spoken)*

All right, so Sheila has a boss, a cigarette girl you mighta seen

Who works down at the Rhumba Club almost every night of the week

But this simple cigarette girl is much more than meets the eye

She’s the head of this here city’s only union just for spies

If anyone would know the dirty secrets of this town

It’s this girl whose name is Cora, she's got webs that wind around

The Rhumba Club’s a jungle, every type and every sin

And Katy's a gazelle but still, she’s heading right on in
The Graveyard

"The Graveyard" is the fourth track of the first act of Janissary, and the fourth track of the album overall.

## Performers

Lauren Osborn as Brija

Paul Shapera as Spirit Chorus

## Lyrics

[BRIJA:]

Thus Bogdan that night to the graveyard goes

To ask his forefathers laid there to show

The lost road to where southern mountains wind

And Hajduks make camp and plan their fight

[SPIRIT CHORUS:]

Fate, her lines run about where they may

You'll follow them down

The mouse in the maze and the chase to the grave comes about

Ask for moonlight to show you the path

You'll walk to the last

For the fool finds the road where the angels won't go on past

One day, we'll see you back here and we wait

To hear you come say

Of the task you ran toward

Of which you were so sure that day

Go the path that you seek is shown

Your choice is your own

The fruits of mens' dream angels and laugh and then weep alone
Crazy Girl

"Crazy Girl" is the fifth track of the second act of Janissary, and the tenth track of the album overall.

## Lyrics

[BRIJA:]

The girl is trained day after day

What things to do, what things to say

The way to fight, the way to pray

The other girls, they eye her with disdain

Believe her broken and insane

They plot to kill her soon one day

The girls are trained with sharpened sword

So when they're grown they all can serve

In a Janissary harem corp

Their lives will now have purpose great

To serve the vizier, serve the state

Elite young bodyguards one day

All the saints I say

All the saint come out and play

The saints and dead dance here today

Girl, little girl, you've gone too far

Do you still know who you are?

Little girl, you're so far gone

Girl, crazy girl, the things she says

Crazy girl inside her head

"Crazy girl," says crazy men

The other girls, they scheme and plot

And try to kill young Brija off

But all their plots go oddly wrong

As weird and strange as it might seem

Her secret friends no one believes

They whisper, warn her constantly

Girl, little girl, you've gone too far

Do you still know who you are?

Little girl, you're so far gone

Girl, crazy girl, the things she says

Crazy girl inside her head

"Crazy girl," says crazy men
Shopogopolis

The Shopogopolis is a large, mall-like location which appears in the album The New Albion Guide to Analogue Consciousness. An announcement seems to regularly play, stating that, "if it exists, it's here for less." During the events of the album, Rachael and the Mascot 3000 live in the Shopogopolis for an unspecified period of time, hiding from government agents and sustaining themselves off of food from the food courts, as they try to track the signal that will lead them to Connor.

Later, during the The Broken Cyborg, Xander Cale mentions that they, their twin Macayla, their mother, aunt, and presumably cousin also used to work and live in the Shopogopolis, but due to the desperate lifestyle it caused them to live in, they all left it and joined a cult. Xander grew up inside of this cult, but they all returned to the Shopogopolis in order to pay for Macayla's medical treatments.
The Journey Begins

**The Journey Begins** is the second track of Caravan. It was originally part of a unique track with Caravan Overture, called *Overture*.

## Lyrics

[ALEX:]

Diamonds in sky

[KATE:]

Diamonds in jet-black planes

[ALEX:]

A caravan rides

[KATE:]

Bathes the sand, sheets of space

[ALEX:]

Into the night

[KATE:]

Cart wheels creak and grind

[ALEX:]

Driving through time

[KATE:]

Winding through scarlet night

[ALEX:]

A Caravan rolling, deserts unfolding

[ALEX & KATE:]

In time

...

[ALEX:]

Shadows and sand

[KATE:]

A sky and a land

[ALEX:]

Swallows our tracks

[KATE:]

Fade into black

[ALEX:]

Ahead of the night

[KATE:]

The horizon's unformed

[ALEX:]

Black swallowed sky

[KATE:]

A future unborn

[ALEX:]

A landscape unformed, and a void not yet born

[ALEX & KATE:]

We near

[ALEX & KATE:]

When did we finally accept

The journey we're on

Just move towards death

Though the end, doubt comes the same

We spend our time

In shadows or flames

[ALEX:]

All through the night blows the wind

And behind it there's

[KATE:]

All through, night blows

[ALEX & KATE:]

Music that you can hear play

[ALEX:]

Breathe through the night

[KATE:]

Let the wind sweep me on

[ALEX:]

Pray to the sights

[KATE:]

Preconceived notions gone

[ALEX:]

Peel off the wool

[KATE:]

Though the answers might show

[ALEX:]

Welcome the cold

[KATE:]

It's the journey, not the goal

[ALEX:]

Bells on the wagons, the wheels creak and sand spins

[ALEX & KATE:]

Around

[ALEX & KATE:]

When did we finally accept

The journey we're on

Just move towards death

Through the end, doubt comes the same

We spend our time

In shadows or flames

[ALEX:]

All through the night blows the wind

And behind it there's

[KATE:]

All through, night blows

[ALEX & KATE:]

Music that you can hear play

[ALEX:]

Fires shine inside the nighttime

Wheels within wheels creak and unwind

Drums beat and grind, sand in scrawling lines

Living in the space of downtime

Creases fall between the cold lines

Flames ignite, shine, shadows once were blind

(x4)

[KATE:]

Fires in the nighttime as

Wheels within wheels unwind

Drums grind on sand scrawling lines

Living in downtime

The creases between the lines

Flames shine on shadows once blind

(x3)

[???:]

Fires in the nighttime

As wheels within wheels unwind

Drums grind on sand painted lines

Living in the downtime

The creases between the lines

Flames shine on shadows once blind

Fires in the nighttime

As wheels within wheels unwind

Drums grind on sand scrawling lines

Living in the downtime

The creases between the lines

Flames shine on shadows once blind

[ALEX & KATE:]

Lay me down in mem'ries

Raise me up in gold

Shadows scrape my hist'ry

Flames ignite my soul

## Lyrics

[ZOE:]

That’s definitely messed up

They’re strung out on hard core drugs

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

I know, there's no way I would --

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

But it’d be fun to spend a night getting wasted, a little messed up.

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

Wait, what?

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

Nothing hard, just something fun, a little Mary and Molly...

[TIMOTHY:]

I gave all that crap up back when I was on the run

[ZOE:]

Been awhile and then some since I caught a nice buzz

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

Oh my God you’re like the house guest from Hell.

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

Well…

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

I loan, and I mean loan, you my body and all you want to do with it is get laid and get high?

[ZOE:]*(spoken)*

And you are welcome.

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

You’re gonna fry my brain and give me syphilis.

[ZOE:]

Timothy, if anyone needs to get laid and catch a buzz it is you, son

[TIMOTHY:]

I tried something on the run and got so paranoid and I was already high strung

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

I know about your suicidal thoughts.

Timothy:*(spoken)*

Wait, what?

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

And I’m serious on this one, you could use a little fun.

[TIMOTHY:]

We’re in an extra dimensional house of usher

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

You think you can just find some guy named Snake and ask if we can score?

[ZOE:]

They’re smoking something in this place

Of that, I am sure

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

You are not using my body to get wasted.

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

You’ll be there too, it’ll be fun, two for the price of one!

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

My body will hate you when you’re done.

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

Thank me, more like.

[TIMOTHY:] *(spoken)*

How come with all this weirdness, this whole messed up trip, we just talk about sex and drugs?

[ZOE:] *(spoken)*

Cause I'm scared as shit.

"Bio2 赞德\*卡诺尔" is the third track of The Broken Cyborg. The title translates to "Xander's song."

## Performers

Psyche Chimere as "Han-Mi"

Paul Shapera as "Xander"

## Lyrics

[HAN-MI:] *(spoken)*

Xander Cael had gone to school for applied biology, but their unendorsed experiments in DNA splicing, hyper cell mutation and flesh enhancement, when discovered, earned them immediate expulsion. Over their time at the college, however, they had secretly pilfered a range of lab equipment which they packed up along with the money they’d made giving the richer kids things like tails and organic breast and genital enlargements. A few years later, you could find odd rumors floating around that for those interested in cutting edge cyber modification and trans human enhancements, there was a real life mad scientist working in the park.

[XANDER:]

You try, you try, you try the best you can

You try until you die

You try the best you can

You try, you try, you try the best you can

You try until you die

You try the best you can

The Shopogopolis where my mom grew up with her sister they despised

A life of quiet desperation that they longed to leave behind

So one day when two boys showed up and spoke of space and souls

They followed them and that’s how they wound up inside a cult

The cult said angels coming soon to carry off the pure

Renounce all sex my children, out in space there’s bliss for sure

Leave your bodies on the floor

Procreation was with hoods and my aunt to a boy gave birth

Named Henry but years later he’d run off back into the world

My mom had twins, Macayla and me, but Macayla soon grew sick

“Impurity,” the cult screamed and forbid all treatment

I begged my mom, we too must flee to save my sister's life

And so we left all then we had known one dark and fearful night

On the floor we left our lives

My mom unskilled, she got a job in the Shopogopolis she once fled

Doctors studied close my sister and then sadly shook their heads

A disease progressed so fast that my poor sister was locked in

To her body, she would never move or talk ever again

I swore an oath to save her but I knew I never would

I swore I’d tame biology by mind or hand or sword

Leave your body on the floor

My experiments in college went too far or so I've heard

"Degenerate lost genius," they said as they kicked me to the curb

My sister I would visit, but her mind it slowly bent

A sad, insane flesh statue is all that’s left there of my twin

Here in the park my experiments continue with success

I’ll crack the code to redesign, reform, rebuild the flesh

One day when angels fly in space to save all that they find

Those angels they will be us in bodies redesigned

For something more

We’ll leave our bodies on the floor

You try, you try, you try the best you can

You try until you die

You try the best you can

You try, you try, you try the best you can

You try until you die

You try the best you can
