• Spoken #1:
  I always wonder, who am I? Why do I do it? I don't know. It's because there's no other way. Sometimes I ask God and he answers. The simple answer for simple questions. That's how I see God.
• Spoken #2:
  My sacred heart. I speak of my heart as if it were an entity seperate from me. I think the same thing about pain. It's like an evil spirit outside of me that's always with me. There's no way to destroy it. It's my eternal opera.
• Spoken #3:
  I want to triumph over you. I want respect. I want it all. God will help me to help myself. I don't know. Dreams and wishes become reality. Peace and love for humanity.
• Spoken #4:
  The surreal and suspect dream. I want clearly to remember it, but I can't. The dream lives in me. My desires control me. My thoughts follow. What is it that stops me from killing, from thinking, from recognizing my destiny? Nothing, absolutly nothing.

Peel Sessions

• Recorded for the John Peel Radio Show on 09/08/91. All three tracks were recorded live in the studio, with some minor overdubbing done later.
