Slave Labor

My chains are paper thin, and they're welded with me
Sealed inside a legal trap, so tight blood don't leak
A contract with a devil, for a life of disdain
See me in the limelight, an indentured slave
I blame myself.

God! Help me pour this gas on me!
I need to drown in flames to be free!
Help me pour this gas on me!

Choke another product for the mass to consume
The flocks of mindless sheep that have corporately groomed
I endrance through apathy, like drones in the hive
A slave on the prayer wheel in conformed disguise
I blame myself

God! Help me pour this gas on me!
I need to drown in flames to be free!
Help me pour this gas on me!

I sold my soul, I sold my soul ...

God! Help me pour this gas on me!
I need to drown in flames to be free!
Help me pour this gas on me!

Cyberwaste

Nothing you say matters to us!
Fuck you!

Spit your worthless point of view, a cog in the machine
Your damn words are straight up lies, continue to deceive
Nothing you say matters to us!
You are a virus spreading disease!
Your life is so sad, spreading lies of me!

Nothing you say matters to us!
Fuck you!
Sow your seeds of ignorance you cyberparasite
Seems you say moot anything to stab me with your lies
You are a virus spreading disease!
Your life is so sad, spreading lies of me!
(Reap what you sow, your words are shit!)
You are a virus spreading disease!
Your life is so sad, spreading lies of me!

Assume that you know my thoughts
(All I want to do is see)
Infect me with your disease
(Tapping away on the keys)
Change your face in front of me
(Safe behind the cyberscreen)
Wishing that you knew the truth
(All I know is what I read)

Nothing you say matters to us!

Act Of God

In my eyes sedition surrounds
One damned life beaten and bound
An act of mercy, a scene of pain
There is no difference, it's all in your name
This act of god

Lights of faith blinding my eyes
Fires of hate scorch through the skies
Lost in your darkness, burned by your flame
Forced to believe it's all in your name
This act of god

Honesty is heresy in this holy war
Contradiction, an affliction hardening my heart

Life conflicts, we're already dead
Death restricts enlightenment
Love is paradox, hate is insane
There is no difference, it's all in your name
This act of god

Honesty is heresy in this holy war
Contradiction, an affliction hardening my heart

Drones

You waste away
A spinning cage
Rats blinded by the sun
You spend your days
Stuck in that race
And life has just begun
In paradise there's ill neglect
And lives are lost in full distress
The wage of sin is money spent
Your life undone, full of regret
Lost in the maze
Falling away

And now your life
Amounts to nothing
The fortune has a price
'Cause in the end
all humans die
A dead drone in the hive
In paradise there is ill neglect
And lives are lost in full distress
The weight of sin is memory spent
Your life undone full of regret
Lost in the maze
Falling away
Falling away again...

Archetype

You must never forget the essence of your spark
All of that which defines you is the essence of your blood
The infection has been removed
The soul of this machine has improved

Look into my eyes
And tell me what you see
Someone real ?
This is real !
What you wish to be.

You must never forget, to modernize performance
Malignancies on the system will handicap, slow up and rust
The infection has been removed
The soul of this machine has improved

Look into my eyes
And tell me what you see
Someone real ?
This is real !
What you wish to be.

Can you see ?

Look into my eyes
And tell me what you see
Someone real
This is real
What you wish to be.
Open your eyes...

Corporate Cloning

A cloned force mass produced, simulate, introduced
Delinquent rank and file, encoded, stamped and styled
Ill-affected progeny, tasteless iconography

A half life in the light, industry by design
Plastic thoughts in my mind, thus begins my demise
This years model dims and fades, last years model is erased
Prototype by design, prototype stand in line!
Another fading idol
Another falling icon

Like insects share a mind, deviance is a crime
Delinquent rank and file, encoded, stamped and styled
Ill-affected progeny, tasteless iconography
This years model dims and fades, last years model is erased
Prototype by design, prototype stand in line!
Another fading idol
Another falling icon

(Sometimes I wish I were deaf and blind)

Another fading idol
Another falling icon

Bite The Hand That Bleeds

I watch you tap for blood in my veins
My heart you feed on to keep you sustained
A parasite that leaves me cold and drained
I'm in shock, and you leave me paralyzed
And the saddest part I realize
The absence of truth behind your eyes
I feel you tapping my soul from my vein!
I feel you tapping again on my vein!
I feel my life slipping away!
One more drop of blood I spill
One more drop you take
One more drop and I will spite
And bite the hand that bleeds

I see you have two faces turning
Changing face to keep me guessing
You have mastered the art of deceiving
Now I know no one trusts you
And to think, not even you do
And I know you salted my wounds
Now I know no one trusts you!
Now I know no one trusts you!
Now I know you salted my wounds!
One more drop of blood I spill
Noe more drop you take
One more drop and I will spite
And bite the hand that bleeds
Bite the hand that bleeds you...

Undercurrent

Lies are all that we hear
Damn your undertones of fear
Lies are what causes fear
Damn you! and all that I hear!
There's fear in your eyes
So clear in your eyes
Undercurrent, we cannot believe
Undercurrent, slowly drowning me

Face me, look in my eyes
Hate me, I see through your mind
Face me and you still deny
Hate me and drown me in lies
Your lies you can't hide
So clear in my mind
Undercurrent, we cannot believe
Undercurrent, slowly drowning me

(I drown) (cough)

Undercurrent, we cannot believe
Undercurrent, slowly drowning me

Default Judgement

Discrimination, your intention to scar me
Discrimination, your assessment, penalty
I suffer!

Spiteful resolutions, by your sentence we must fall
Spiteful resolution, bitter thought destroy us all
We suffer!

Your final judgement stands
Fate, by your will
I never had a chance
I never will

By your default judgement everyone has suffered
Your pointless judgement caused everyone to ...
Suffer!

Your final judgement stands
Fate, by your will
I never had a chance
I never will

(Day in which god judged humankind)

Your final judgement stands
Fate, by your will
I never had a chance
I never will
Never...

Bonescraper

There is no future for us to suture
Your life ill-fated, beat down and hated
Shot in the head, walking undead
Numb to the world, around your head
Rip my skin from my bone, I won't bleed
Rip my heart from my chest, I won't scream

Hide in the shadows, deep black, and hollow
Empty void of light cuts clean, like a knife
Damaged and torn, punctured by thorns
I've felt nothing since I was born
Rip my skins from my bones, I won't bleed
Rip my heart from my chest, I won't scream

My flesh <-> Your flesh
Your eyes <-> My sight
My pain <-> Your shame
We are the same...

Rip my skin from my bones, I won't bleed
Rip my heart from my chest, I won't scream
Rip my skin...

Human Shields

So much violence in our name
Our lives are silence, masked in shame
Children running in the streets
Soldier boots are on their feet
Mother bare the burdens of our defeats
Fathers are on their knees praying for mercy
So much violence in our name...

Holding me like your shield

So much violence in our name
Our lives are silenced, masked in shame
No more
No more
No more...
Holding me like your shield
No more violence in our name
No more violence in our name
