End of Existence
03:05
|
|||
|
Take advantage of life/ keep peace with a bomb
Get through the strife/ must carry on!
It's the end of existence
The end for us all!
Such a useless existence/ mind set like machine
Why can't anyone understand?
Do they know what this means?
The system in use will be our downfall
This is the end, the end of us all!

Parasitic Culture
02:09
|
|||
|
Listen to every word that they hear/ never do they question
Living life in constant fear/ comforted by oppression
Parasitic, it's infectious
A culture under this systems control
Pray to their Gods about problems/ never will they take a stand
Instead they appoint oppressors to govern/ ones who bring about destruction on command

Death Dance
02:28
|
|||
|
The tribe is around the fire
Dancing in the night
War will rage tomorrow with the morning light
Blood will spill on the streets, watch as the people die
Lastly come the bombs that drop down from the sky
Take a second glance
This is your only chance
Don’t be fooled by them into doing the…
Death dance
You can see the destruction
Right before your eyes
Death and mutilation
Covered up with lies
Are we progressing?
Or regressing?
The problems continue to grow and they steer us all off of track
Counter productivity consumes the human race
Blinded by the power that holds us all in place

Eternal War
03:06
|
|||
|
I sit and watch my daughter
I wonder what awaits her future
With all of this mass genocide and war
Systematic oppression and the religiously insane
I only tell her the truth, despite its vile discretion
Because I don’t want her to develop the systematic obsession
What about the children?
What have we left for them that is worth living for?
What about the children?
Left to fight in this eternal war.
I whisper to my daughter,
“Don’t play into their game.
I’m sorry that this is all that is left.”
I will always try to hide her away from the pain
Children in the third world are starving
Taxes we pay are financing slaughter
Everyone can act like everything is fine,
But I will not lie to my daughter
Material possessions, institutionalized by education
Drones created by the people in power, divided into nations
Pray to their God to solve problems, when their system begins to fail
Dissenters from this formula are captured, killed, or thrown into jail
I love my little girl, I will not lie to her like you
Call me a bad father, but my kids will know the truth

Sapere Aude
00:49
|
|||
|
In a dark black hall we’re mindless
And yes we’re all insane
In the middle of all of the madness
There is a picture to fit the frame
Sapere Aude
When it is whispered to you
Makes sure no one will hear
For all that we now know
Is soon to disappear
|

Useless Fuckers
03:11
|
|||
|
Estranged from the future
Yet indefatigably pursue
The endless nightmare, impending doom
What doesn’t matter cannot be
|
||||
8. |
Autodidacticism
01:52
|
|||
|
I am just so angry
Action that make no sense
Cyclically we’re all shit on
At our own expense
Saving face turned plastic surgery
And you’re still due for reconstruction
If your life were up to you,
Would you be able to function?
It’s important to know much,
It’s the last long standing weapon
Damnation has no chance
If we teach ourselves the lessons
|
||||
9. |
Theoretical Propositions
02:25
|
|||
|
Are you conscious of your existence?
Can you be sure that it is real?
Uniformed awareness, programmed to feel
Heuristic decisions cannot render fate
Collective delusions define the realm, is it too late?
Theoretical Propositions, concepts brought to life through the mind
To travel near the speed of light, to render all displacement before time

Ex Libris
04:18
|
|||
|
You have a brain so use it
It can all be done
To feel small is useless
And it’s no fucking fun
The world can change today
It’ll change again tomorrow
All you need is you,
No need for hope to borrow
Tell them to fuck off
No need to articulate
They wouldn’t understand
No need to contemplate
They’ll bring reprimand
No need dictating fate
If it’s already happened
Then surely it’s too late
What of today?
Tomorrow, so what?
I will always love you three.

Oncogene
01:46
|
|||
|
The virus finds the cell, it leaves its thoughts behind.
DNA must undergo the process, it is time to reassign.
How can we sell it? We must control it!
Harness death, there is no way to foil it.
Should we take background radiation into account?
It begins to seem perplexing as the variables surmount

Earth Spins Again
02:01
|
|||
|
Such a complex construct
Such a useless game
Prosaic dreams, here are the numbers and your name.
This is a show you won't want to miss
Spinning on a sphere in the black abyss
|
||||
13. |
||||
|
Look at you with your petty games
Of self worth and naming things
You can call them as you please
To your own mind it will appease
Force,
they'll use force.
|
||||
14. |
||||
|
Blasting noise at night
Screams from pain
This is the end
It calls Your name
I need something, a reason not to die.
