Once I gave a look to you
But you never gave it back
So here I stand expressionless
But my memory's intact
I guess the past is good for a laugh
A comedy so dry and black
That it makes my stomach hurt so bad, I cried
So two thumbs up we give this one
Despite its predictable ending
The dialog seemed rushed and wrong
But the actors did their best
To lay some worth on every word
Like coffins dropped into the earth
The saddest song we ever heard
We sang along, we sang it
Breathe you son of a bitch, don’t you dare let go!
Too young to die, to vile autonomy
No response and a pulse at an all time low
Please wake up my friend, I can’t stand here watching
you die
Mouth to mouth, still no sign of life
Come on my friend, you can make through it
Hang on, live on, get through this day
Wake up, stand up, don’t fuck me this way, way!
Pinch you hard, but you won’t move an inch
Eyes are closed, reflexes motionless
Skin is moist, stiff, white and cold
Can I accept that there’s no more I can do? (do!)
The irony of fate
I’m sitting here crying: too proud to admit that I’ve
lost it
The grim grip of reality sweeps me whole with misery
A friend so colourful, his body’s left, absent of soul
Freezes my thoughts, my will live, if there are lives
to take
Who wants to give?
Eyes are blurring, is this a dream?
What’s happening to me?
It’s dark, cold and I can’t see
Can’t feel the blood in me
Emptiness, I’m falling
Illusions flash aside
A struggle to recover, inside I slowly die
I would never lie
Defy that I’ve crossed the line
Have you ever felt this way?
Or does it come too late?
Believe me, I’ve been there before
And it’s nothing I want to restore
They (…so ungodly) feed on my pain
Freed?
I never felt so deceived deep down inside
So strong, so hard-hitting
Cut the crap, stop bullshitting
Listen to the puncture sound
As all our lives go down
They (…so ungodly) feed on my pain
Have I crawled enough for your eyes to see?
Your world and how you critically perceive
The weakness in me I loathe to contain
Tell me should you or I explain?
They (…so ungodly) feed on my pain
(won’t bleed for you more)
`Cause I’ve had enough of this
Like life is a wandering bliss
Seen all this before
I hate what I adore (repent?)
Punctured like a freak
Is all this shit for me?
Sow but not to reap
And just a follower of the sheep!
Content?
A struggle for nothing
Never believing
Caught up inside of trying to become:
(yeah) Higher ground, lower stream
The balance of my mind is everything but fine
But my time is coming, my time is coming
I stand in a line, next time will be mine
Scorn-blown mind-religion, there is a missing link
Between reality and what you fucking think
Movements without intention, caused by frantic fear
Numb to the chaos, so far yet so near
So what is wrong with me?
What should I do?
Searching my mind for answers, without a clue
Find my inner help, find my inner self
Falling down, climb aside
Dubbed me a mental portrait
Struggle within a state of mind
Soothing to lure all mankind
Reflecting absence truly blind
All that’s left is society’s swine
Stupidity: I am not one of a kind
Movements without intention, caused by frantic fear
Numb to the chaos, so far yet so near
So what is wrong with me?
What should I do?
Searching my mind for answers, without a clue
Find my inner help, find my inner self
So what is wrong with me? What should I do?
Searching my mind for answers, without a clue
Find my inner help, find my inner self
Scorn-blown mind-religion, there is a missing link
Between reality and what you fucking think
Strip me of a conscious in this mental Babylon
Restore me to what I once was cause already too far
down
Have I no thoughts nor sympathy?
Am I ready to kill my enemy?
Gun clutched in my fist
Why do I put my life at risk?
Stand tall, and fight with grace
Today, its death you’ll face
Neither way you’ll climb that wall
For thy country you’ll live or fall
Control? What self-esteem?
Today, no one will win
See the light, I just dig down
A shallow grave upon this ground
Fields lie, fields lie cold of men’s souls, freedoms
fall
Fields lie, fields lie cold of men’s souls, freedoms
fall
Soldier! Hold thy ground
Commanded by the proud
With every life you’re willing to take
Wars are to be won, you’re here to annihilate
Down cold, no time to run
Look up, your time has come
Seal the fate of those who die
Pro patria mori, I live the lie
Fields lie, fields lie cold of men’s souls, freedoms
fall
Fields lie, fields lie cold of men’s souls, freedoms
fall
So it’s this you call GLORY?
Up until this day I’ll be sorry…
Fields lie, fields lie cold of men’s souls, freedoms
fall
Fields lie, fields lie cold of men’s souls, freedoms
Don't you worry my life is unsaveble
I'm just your average expendable motherfucker
Each day we pray to see another day but our God is laughing...
Because whatever happens we'll believe we died in his name
And the rest of the whole can watch when true diplomacy makes its claim
Well it never ceases to amaze
Exalt the splendors of the music industry
Let entertainment value come to the fore
Sit down and get mind-fucked by the shit on MTV
And here we lie, in a state of perpetual calm
Eyes wide shut, as addicts we keep suckling on
Take in whole the full range of promiscuity
Force fed notions of fervent superficiality
Control is the key… forever hail the youth of apathy
Minds cut short of dealing with complexities
Meaningless shows designed to induce complacency
So sell! So sell!
[Chorus:]
We let ourselves play as fools
Our brains turned into dumping sites
Tell us how we must conform in order to feel a
belonging right
I feel this burning desire to see this industry
cleansed with fire
To be rebuilt with new ambitions and rid of its pitiful
inclinations
Rectify? Cannot reverse the process now
So effectively our eyes have been blinded by snow
Wannabes, pimps, whores sell themselves incessantly
What ever happened to artistic integrity?
Standard recipe of success…
Just add some bling-bling, glam and sex
So-called artists lined-up to be the next big superstar
Just need to label their antics as a newfound art form
Enjoy! Enjoy!
[Chorus]
Sell out?
Appeal to the most basic conceptions of our imagination
Sell out?
Fuck intellectual audacity if it doesn’t make the bucks
So seamless and effortless the pipers lead on the fools
No need to contest the fact, the companies supply the
tools
Yes, MTV shall be the proponent of our newborn reality
Add it up and try to make sense
The sum of all shit!
Now we're strangers more than we ever were
Love executed with simple words
And I was the one who had to understand and accept
The final verdict you could explain yourself
You're thoughts can be summed up: I'll do whatever suits me
Well at least someone's got it all off of their chest
Taking the easiest way out is what always you did best!
If it's all the same for you and me
I'm not the only one
Now that I am gone
It was all up to me?
So manipulative
I'll never see you again
Fake from top to bottom
My eyes sorely blinded
Anticipating hate
Never see your face again
Evidently too much for you
Still ignorant to the damage you've done
Do you truly know what it really feels like?
You don't even have your feet on the ground
Breaking up harder than you thought: well that's love for you!
Well at least someone's got it all off of their chest
Taking the easiest way out is what always you did best!
If it's all the same for you and me
I'm not the only one
Now that I am gone
It was all up to me?
So manipulative
I'll never see you again
Fake from top to bottom
My eyes sorely blinded
Anticipating hate
Never see your face again
New shallows... you never believed in a love where you had to give
I was a free-to-fall sucker blinded by love
Emotionally exploited beyond repair
And everybody could see what you did was wrong
The pain you prolonged!
These actions left me no choice but to hate
All the half-hearted shit you represent
Convenient silence, true neglect
Do you still think your judgement is unsuspect?
You still haunt me now in my dreams
Fucked me as long as I suit your needs
What she loved was herself
We are so paranoid, we’ve become the victims of our own
fear
Rationality is subordinate, when tuned in to the
“evils” out there
O’ do you react to what they send?
TV depicts society like a war zone – ready to engulf
Feeding us an unscrupulous set of lies
Information corresponds to socially accepted
stereotypes
Generalizations, preconceptions, news that lacks depth
We consume others tragedies to feel better about
ourselves
Omnipresent political correctness – objectivity dead
Simplified news-reports persuade the dimmest of heads
So when freedom is at stake – our docility makes sure
that we don’t care
Just as long as we get what we crave!
Truth beyond sensation – subscribe to the pretense?
The will to entertain exceeds what really counts…
Swayed public opinion and directed sympathies
Ignorance flourishing due to critical inadequacy
TV the instrument that keeps us in check
Our attentions diverted by the government
We’re slaves to the fucking trends!
Curiously poised by the menace of criminals and bin
Ladens
This paranoia is shifting society
Becoming a nation of hyper-patriotic vigilantes
What cuts me up – I swallow the hollow lies they feed
Enclosed by invisible fiends, media nurtures the fears
inside me
Bored?
At least it keeps me glued to the tube in anticipation
of the next ferocious crime – comfortably pacified
within they walls of my home
Tap into the horrors of the outside world
Information suited for mass digestion
Everyone viewing the same channels
As if gods and devils play out their schemes on Earth
Throughout time men respond to their call
Story of the God, the beast and the fools between
Forever! Never seems to be a way out for humanity
We live as we shall surely fall
Creator: no longer need for him – outlived his
functionality
We should live as if we were the It and the All
Prayers for solace never helped a thing
Playing our sensibilities – God never prevented tragedy
He lives in the fear of us all
We’re made in the eyes of God they say – loved and
watched by the perfect deity
We’re the living testament to his fallibility
Plain to see – God ran off from his responsibility
Plain to see – He let the demons run rampantly
Plain to see – We repeat our faults throughout history
Plain to see – It’s time we took our place as successors
to be
The pains of the world constructed to make us seek his
mercy
The plan is to bend every being into conformity
The stars, they call for us
The universe outside implores us
Time to depart this wretched Earth
Time to leave…
Am I lost or am I at the place to be?
Never mind my lacking confidence
Am I still a man?
All I know is that this ship’s going down
In this world what more could you expect
Shrink my dignity then crave respect
Am I though my own enemy?
So frustrated, so misplaced
Faith?
At what cost do you sell you’re soul
Hate?
I’m not the one crumbling inside
Conceit?
Who says I’m suddenly so bold?
Save me!
And who’s free?
A piece of mind, a piece of me and a piece of that
Well I’ve had enough of this show
There is nothing more
I might be stupid but I ain’t slow
Should I applaud when I know you’ve won
Don’t expect something like that “son”
Do you need a clue?
So frustrated, so misplaced
Faith?
At what cost do you sell you’re soul
Hate?
I’m not the one crumbling inside
Conceit?
Who says I’m suddenly so bold?
Save me!
And who’s free?
Psychiatric bullshit lasts. Thrash!
Faith?
At what cost do you sell you’re soul
Hate?
I’m not the one crumbling inside
Conceit?
Who says I’m suddenly so bold?
Save me!
What am I, wrapped up in this tissue, in this mortal
flesh
A frail creature called human, that gives life only to
give death!
An aura of content, caused by recent, lost in a feeling
that’s beyond my body
A life away, seemingly safe, brought on a course that’s
leaving all of me
Extract the mind, what will you find, a soul without
any doubt or fear
Calm and clear, yet so afraid, that when I die that I
won’t miss it all!
Have I become my own enemy! (Worst enemy)
Blind is a faith, that rules it away, the lust of the
body is the soul’s life in practice
First comes the fear, that puts you in gear, so fucking
consumed with my own being
Sensational joy, love turned to a toy, it’s a play
where we all are actors
And what feelings have you, come to seclude, your one
life to emotional penitentiary
Have I become my own enemy! (Worst enemy)
Is this state of me?
Because my thoughts are far too beyond me
Is this state of me?
A lucid flesh bound entity
Is this state of me?
That only cares about one thing: Me!
Who: am I to judge
Who: am I to feel me
Who: am I to bleed
Who: am I to breed
Who: am I to hate
Who: am I to create
Who: am I to die
I’ve been a formidable sinner, a creep of deceit, a
false winner
Crossed my love to make myself look better
Don’t tell me that ain`t the miserable life of a
cheater
Somewhere another place for me
Another place, another way
The pain I gave wouldn’t let me rest my soul
It’s time to stop living in denial
A second chance: like reaching out for sand
Before I knew it had it slipped out of my hands
Is this chain of pain, too thick for you?
Too far in contempt, no need to repent?
A loss of soul, too damaged to be repaired
A strain of lust, I was much too afraid to share
On a whole: did I learn from my…
(On a whole) misfortune
I plead now like no one else has done it
Could you ever see it in your heart… NO!
Somewhere another place for me
Another place, another way
The pain I gave wouldn’t let me rest my soul
It’s time to stop living in denial
A second chance: like reaching out for sand
Before I knew it had it slipped out of my hands
I could never find out what was wrong
Nothing was making me strong
And my will to live was gone!
Before you whip me into submission
Torture me and exploit me
I think there's something you should know
I was born into the beating
I'll let you decide the position
Control my disposition
Your biding I accept wilfully
If you say it's so, it's so... well!
Some say it's a game of mutual trust
But I don't care if you get too sordid
Don't you stop, we've just started
The true ways of sodomy
Scarcity of really living
The sense of truly exceeding
Enter the role of the sodomite
Hurt is just temporary feeling
Last breath before the beating now
Suppress the questions "why" or "how"
There's no rational explanation
Mistress! Ready for my dedication?
I know my place in the hierarchy
Lowest form must adhere perfectly
O` won't you please teach me - what it means to dominate!
Insane!
There's no room for pleading now
I sense the lust in your blows
I am "S" and you are "M"
Together we're sadomasochism
Insane!
Hit me harder...
Submit to my tainted stick!
Bow down, you're at the mercy of the whip
Never give in to you!
No need to explain, my solution is pain
To live you must learn to crawl
As a slave you can't have it all
Being a worthless piece of shit
Doesn't make me feel small at all
Insane!
There's no room for pleading now
I sense the lust in your blows
I am "S" and you are "M"
Together we're sadomasochism
Insane!
Hit me harder...
Submit to my tainted stick!
Bow down, you're at the mercy of the whip
Never give in to you!
No need to explain, my solution is pain
The sweet sting to the cracking sound
The brilliant touch of inhumanity
There is no shame, my solution is pain
Victimized, paralyzed, by the thoughts you seem
moralize and consent
Whose thoughts are we here to prevent?
Oh, I try so hard yet it won’t help me
My lies within me like one ton sunken concrete
Happiness just isn’t a part of me
Is flattering myself just cheap activity?
Shallow lies, indiscrete adversitiles Say am I what I
Compensate my missing self-respect with flaws Do I hate
what I hate?
I will have to swallow my pride I am what I perpetrate?
Redraw my fault! Say am I what I am?
Consistent cries, directly demoralize Do I hate what I
hate?
The core emptiness of my heart I am what I perpetrate?
Results in insecurity Just can’t erase it away
See my eyes
It’s myself I despise
Is this a serious case of bad karma?
You think I’m not that kind (oh you wish)
Am I in control of my sordid little brain?
Determine if I’m dumb or insane
Shallow lies, indiscrete adversitiles Say am I what I
Compensate my missing self-respect with flaws Do I hate
what I hate?
I will have to swallow my pride I am what I perpetrate?
Redraw my fault! Say am I what I am?
Consistent cries, directly demoralize Do I hate what I
hate?
The core emptiness of my heart I am what I perpetrate?
Results in insecurity Just can’t erase it away
See my eyes
Left to make it all so easy
Cheating yourself of dignity
The former pillars of your life scorn
Laid the blame upon us excessively
Obsessed with external factors
Manipulation to control
From behind the mask you sought to undermine our task
So you could get out whole
[Chorus:]
You cannot see it for yourself
(Could never rid you illusions)
Someone is trying to take it away
Another time, another place
(We’ve come to the conclusion)
To seek all your pain…
Solution is hate
Chose to burn all the bridges
To mark your anger and detest
But all the time you knew what you were
Backstabbing us at the best
Betraying everyone of us
But even worse you betrayed yourself
From now and for ever more
You’ve lost those who were once your real friends
[Chorus]
Make amends with all the shit in the wake of you?
Don’t try – There is no gain… fucker!
Memories, we choose to sever line clear
You deal with your demise
Well, I know this bitch; she thinks she’s a star now
Everybody she knows tells her that she’s the best
So pretty, cute, fragile – she loves to be loved
But stardom has a price and she knows…
In order to market herself she’s left all that she was
An empty shell of success
She bares the strain that she must always perform
Sell to sell isn’t too far from whoredom
Things will always coast more than they should
And it never matter how much money you possessed
The questions is how much you are willing to concede
Capital provides the cheap thrills that we seek
So let’s dance!
Around the gold calf
I’ve got this friend who treats his women like a
commodity
Only satisfied giving a certain amount of pain
His shattered ego tells him to put true love aside
Primal urges never to short to be denied
This one girl broke his heart a long time ego
Regrettably to him they are all now the same
Instead he confides in synthetic dreams
Too bad he never found what could keep him sane
Abundance is mundane – consume that makes me ill
Our spoiled laughter haunts those in need
Nothing for something, fruits that we steal
Blessed are the whores that serve all our needs
If we had a million dollars we’d still use it on shit!
Is this real?
It must be – our money tells us so!
Applied materialism is the easiest way to go
Take the big cake – orgy of consumption
What do we care in this world of destruction…
We are all wrapped up in our selfish selves
Prisoners of our personal vanity
We feed on perfect images we know are fake
They say reflections never lie
With your soul in my hand – a grip that compels,
consumes the heart
Drive on, lead on, or sink as you sell your right to
live on
Pure market autonomy, the invisible hand distributes
the shares just
Free the forces of greed and bring all those untouched
to the light
Uninhibited speculation – incentive to flow
State subordinate to the paramount of individualism
Dollar signs in their eyes; can’t you see how they
glow?
Penetration for acquisition – disintegrate capital
account control!
That’s right! An ideology that seems all too right
Survival of the fittest – a rat-race put in to perfect
system
Institutionalized cynicism – clear cut rationale,
volatility ensures a victim
Assets, equity and property – the millions spent on
bonds
Self-fulfilling prophecy, in market psychology we shall
trust
So put your money where mouth is and make the bid
There is no medal for second place
Capitalism will free our souls
Necessity cleans the lice away
The anticipation of crude reward
Efficiency in its incarnate form
Forward!
Forward!
Competition in its purity…
Assert yourself accordingly
The bolt shall profit and seize
Let's set aside for a moment
The ideological connotations of the debate
And take a minute to reflect and acknowledge
Our true nature seems no different than amoebae
And I contemplate, ambivalently, over humanity's
behavior
The strides and turns throughout our fraught history
And how we tend to out-compete the very things we
depend upon
Swept away - even as our surroundings succumb
We cannot find our way out
Procreate - a higher purpose is a figment
Of our imagination
Sex - the very thing all sentient lifeforms share
The basic premise for species' continuation
Funny how it makes us cast aside our attributes of
rational thinking
Added irony: our basic urge to disseminate our genes
Turns out to be our most destructive weapon
The quintessential program which we are all equipped
Is a double-edged sword
Swept away - even as our surroundings succumb
We cannot find our way out
Procreate - a higher purpose is a figment
Of our imagination
Evolution is interdependency by design
Or is it disparity with impunity?
And we assume nothing, nothing of this world
Still believe there's an intelligent force behind our
Machines produce the maximum
Increase spending to the unimaginable
To sustain weapons industry convince public of pre-
emptive strategy
War tech lobbyist get there way, politicians aren’t too
hard to sway
Military industrial complex – first war to be won is on
the stage budget
All for the industry
In heights or lows – we’ll sell to friend or foe
Distinct affair – corrupt elites will get their share
And you shall know us by the trail of war
One superpower accumulating more and more
And if other countries dare choose to protest
They’ll facing the might of our trade sanctions next
Recall the day you pledged to serve the cause
Ethics, schmethics… this is the way of power politics
Politicians will always come and go
Make sure to reap the benefits
A war unjust, at least the threat is reduced to dust
No matter the cost, we showed the world not to mess
with us
Reasons washed away, yet we still cash in on the pay
All this worth the price, diplomacy neutralized
Propagate that we must keep on fighting for freedom
Who says democracy is made by the tip of the gun?
Ideal war
Ideal stance
Wave the flag, oil tainted
Blood soaked soil in foreign lands
Well let's all celebrate because another war has just begun
A cause so holy that no one would ever dare leave it undone
This isn't just an acute gesture of national self-preservation
Disprove all critics of our proud nation
To this unwarranted attack we resolutely respond
Prove to the world that no one can piss on our lawn
Hey! Who doesn't know that we're vulnerable as everybody else?
And we know that security is what truly sells
No need to moralize, we know that everyone will be on our side
We'll sacrifice a few good men, but they'll weigh up for what we idealize
It becomes all the more easy when we paint the world in black and white
I'm so sick of your pathetic ranting
Self-righteous quasi-intellectual chanting
Blaming the world for its unfair treatment
It was never made for you... period!
You never offered any rewarding sentiments
Playing a victim of societies impediments
Hurt multiplies your search for truth
Claiming the weight of the world is on you
It's a shame and you shouldn't be too proud
Your life revolves around hating the crowd
Attacking them for their illicit immoral
To claim you're better is just hypocritical
Your shallowness has become clearer
Your infinite sense of feeling inferior
Why classify them as anticipated enemies
Meaningless priorities consume all your energies
It's a world of uncertainty...
But it won't help if you're always on the edge of things
Contempt unsurpassed
Synthetic values still unmatched
Growing lash-outs, inflammatory speech
Has left you no integrity!
Seemingly you've abandoned all trust
The fact that all your friends you've lost
So bold outside, so scared inside... you bleed...
What's the point?
I know the things i should have guessed
All the problems you left unaddressed
Life, they say, is piece of plastic
Yours was, is and will always be tragic
You try to erase every trace of weakness
Indulge into nothing that gives stimulus
Rid yourself from the pains of the past
Or else you'll find yourself under attack
This is my incentive, my sole objective
Please end your scrutiny, because you're definitely better off... without this misery!
What's the point!
It's a world of uncertainty...
But it won't help if you're always on the edge of things
Contempt unsurpassed
Synthetic values still unmatched
Crowing lash-outs, inflammatory speech
Has left you no integrity!
Seemingly you've abandoned all trust
The fact that all your friends you've lost
So bold outside, so scared inside... you bleed...
What's the point?
The shell is cracking, but in your mind everything is threatening...
A slave of self-wit
The pain is hellish
Ruining real lives
Is truth on your side?
The unforgiving
The warped feelings
Keep on the same
Whose world do you live in?
It's a world of uncertainty...
But it won't help if you're always on the edge of things
Contempt unsurpassed
Synthetic values still unmatched
Growing lash-outs, inflammatory speech
Has left you no integrity!
Seemingly you've abandoned all trust
The fact that all your friends you've lost
So bold outside, so scared inside... you bleed...
What's the point!
The shell is cracking, but in your mind everything is threatening...
Big brother is surveying...
Can't elude his instruments of watch
Tracking every movement
Espionage on those he don't trust
Disinformation
His best weapon or so it seems
Those thoughts he needs to control
Who knows who might just mass against him?
Aside this world that's supposed to be free
Living machines that don't need gasoline
First to the mill receives the first bill
Which we'll pay for the rest of our lives!
By choice or birthright?
Pride (our pride)
How often it's been the one that shames us
Mind (our mind)
Never to smart to be outsmarted
Ever flowing stream
Neurons of a mechanical state
Drones of the new world
Bow down to your newborn fate
Aside this world that's supposed to be free
Living machines that don't need gasoline
First to the mill receives the first bill
Which we'll pay for the rest of our lives!
By choice or birthright?
This is the world I despise!
This is the world in my eyes!
By choice or birthright?
Maybe its time we realize
You'll never see that place again
By choice or birthright?
This is the world in my eyes!
On course, of course!
A system made out to enslave us
A right of the unrighteous
A law for the unknowing self-contagious
Marching to a beat the machines set with no relent
Truth outset
The questions remain
Shame you've lost your freedom
I can't get rid of this feeling
Why are we lost in hate?
This true life we're concealing
With all lost what's at stake
What am I? A part of the plot to control my own thoughts
I cannot die - my precious life belongs to the conquering robots
Too soulless to feel the itching sting of consciousness
What would stability be without the element of chaos!
This is the world in my eyes!
By choice or birthright?
Maybe its time we realize
You'll never see that place again
By choice or birthright?
Preaching for a new fantastic realm
Trust God: it’s us he’s out to sell
Time’s come for a new millennium
Inaugurate it with all your hate (hate!)
Chaos the infinite rivalry
Summon the hordes you cannot be stopped!
Sweet and tempting with a foul stench
Advance through social contempt
One thing is left to be asked
What the fuck do you plan to achieve?
Don’t stir too long in your own juices
Who knows when you will fry! (fry!)
Blend your cause in with a bit religion
When free thoughts are so easily strained
Confronted with individual opinion
Reach out like there’s something to feel
Wanting to come to this conclusion: gods plot is guided
through me!
Anti-social fundamental approval will set our souls
free! (free!)
I’m searching…
I’m clutching…
I’m breathing…
Guess what I’m seeing? Fools!
Fools on parade
Slightly strayed over loss of soul
Have you ever been tempted to free yourself of all
cause?
Confide in lies you moralize
Credit for all the ideas you solemnly stole
Wwon’t shed a tear when you’re overrun
Well let’s all celebrate because another war has just
begun
A cause so holy that no one would ever dare leave it
undone
This isn’t just an acute gesture of national self-
preservation:
Disprove all critics of our proud nation
To this unwarranted attack we resolutely respond
Prove to the whole world that no one can piss on our
lawn
Hey!
Who doesn’t know that we’re vulnerable as everybody
else?
And we know that security is what truly sells
No need to moralize, we know that everyone will be on
our side
We’ll sacrifice a few good men, but they’ll weigh up
for what we idealize
It becomes all the more easy when we paint the world in
black and white
Assure us of those with or against us of our undeniable
right
It’s self-evident: the spirit of unity must subsist as
our ideal
And support our leadership with true patriotic zeal
Attention!
Aggression!
Concentration!
Ready-set-kill!
My name is Uncle Sam and I think I can solve your
problem
Model on my homeland; home of the free; capital and
religion
Never-mind the rest of the world we’ll do as we fucking
please
And those against us we’ll eliminate with the greatest
ease
Don’t say – we are what is freedom
Don’t say – if not against then with them
Don’t say – truth is sold
Don’t say – loss of liberty at the price of control?
Hear them! What splendour! Consolation for terror?
Fear them!? Is this the shell of our hollow pride?
Don’t say – democracy
Don’t say – equality
Don’t say – land of the free
Don’t say – Man above cause
Avoid the consequences
Can’t stand by your own actions
Get your savior who has power to free you from these
sanctions
A Jesus in disguise
A lawyer who believes he’s Christ
(yeah) This is what it’s all about - manipulate the
benefits of doubt!
Freedom at an expense… (what!)
American justice, tell me what’s it meant to be?
Controlled by law to what degree?
An institute with such weak competence
Based on honor with no substance
Ingredients stable with the media focus
Turning courts into goddamn circus
We’re guided by a greed which makes no exception
Practice prestige!
Who cares if defendant is guilty?
Lying, acting - is this how you’ll win?
Fighting for freedom - verdict makes no sense
It won’t be luck or faith that will bring this country
together
Nor the touch god or the fund-sucking congressmen
(when…)
Truth is at absence!
…And these frivolous needs of our society
Renders every man his due?
These words have no meaning to me
Cause this system stands without a clue
Profit beats the way of clear conscience
Justice in the hands of truly blind goddess
We’re guided by a greed which makes no exception
Money exceeds as truth limps on
Lying, acting - is this how you’ll win?
What an illusion
That we ever could believe
That man would put equality above his own personal
greed
There’s innocence, there’s pride
Then tell me why they’re used to undermine mans
greatest… LIES!
It’s the right to disagree, it’s the right to say
That the system often fails but who’ll be the one to
Not the judges hiding behind their books, not lawyer’s
firms
But the everyday citizen in a society that burns!
Truth is at absence!
A truth opposite of meaning
Still accept it through and through
Look again to see who’s bleeding
The grim reality has taken a twisted turn in favor of
those who stand unapologetic
Fanatics attack the structures of society –
Preserving their faith as champions of morality
Performing God’s work on earth
What if we let ourselves be held hostage to the
rhetoric of irreconcilable values?
Hypocrites profound, denouncing all in their way
Poisoning children’s minds to maintain their position
through moral retribution reproducing lies
The irony is as real as it is tragic – religious
zealots mobilize to bring on the second coming
Their strain of fascist idealism meticulously designed
to advance their own salvation (Ignite a war!)
And is the end result holier than the means?
A pathetic attempt to restore some human dignity?
Paradox of democracy, allowing those whom seek to
destroy it to exert their claims as we stand by and
tolerate it as faith…
Sic Transit Gloria Mundi
We’re all in the same boat that barely floats
Yet true believers drive to see us drown
Fighting evil with evil – we choose replicate
History has a sordid-way of repeating itself
Why can we never see this for ourselves?
Delusions of grandeur, since when did God represent
peace and love?
Throughout the ages minions legitimized enemies shall
pay with blood
Conformed rationale – self-righteous response
Judge they’d rather see the world burn, than the fully
of what they believe
Waiting for their prayers to be heard and observed
Manipulating the highest quarters of political power
Arrogance, ignorance, in such lethal combination
Blind adherence to these words has come to signify…
How enmeshed we are in lies – Odium by default
Until the End
Programmed to the hate
Awaiting godsend
