Priests of Hiroshima
04:10
|
|||
Sitting there count the rosary as god gives them everything they need
Faithful pray so faithfully, ask not what will come to be
He gives, we take, these lives he must forsake
He comes, and reaps, and no one questions how he sleeps
He loves you, but he don’t love me
Reign of fire becomes our sleep
Give love, give hate
To anyone that lives to serve him
To anyone that dares to worship sin
To anyone that lives to spread his word
To anyone that dares to stray the herd
Flash of light, across the sky, wicked wind has come to take our lives
Can’t you see what I see, the priests of Hiroshima forsake me
Thousands all around dropping to the ground, blistered and melted skin
Decimation to the living, only bide their time before sickness sets in
He gives, we take, these lives he must forsake
He comes, and reaps, and no one questions how he sleeps
He loves you, but he don’t love me
Priests are spared through a sick mercy
Give love, give hate
To anyone that lives to serve him
To anyone that dares to worship sin
To anyone that lives to spread his word
To anyone that dares to stray the herd
Flash of light, across the sky, wicked wind has come to take our lives
Can’t you see what I see, the priests of Hiroshima forsake me
Run, run, there is no escape, no escape, the priests of Hiroshima forsake me
Flash of light, across the sky, wicked wind has come to take our lives
Can’t you see what I see, the priests of Hiroshima forsake me
The priests are spared, then why not me!

Brain Bleeder
03:31
|
|||
Bright is the day, when things are going their way
And what is the cost, for a turn in profit on someone’s loss
Someone tell me why, this system turned to bleed us dry
I cannot sit idle while they worship their false idol and slowly wither to the point of revolt
Another feeder, another seeder, another one becomes a handful brain teaser, another one tries to make it on his own
Another needer, another cheater, another obnoxious, crazy, brain bleeder, another one gets wasted pick clean his bones
Slight is their way, to make good and pave their way
Complex is the scheme, to hide the truth from the harm they mean
And now you breathe, because now you can finally see
We cannot sit idle, stop the warship of false idol, and quickly rise to the point of revolt
Another feeder, another seeder, another one becomes a handful brain teaser, another one tries to make it on his own
Another needer, another cheater, another obnoxious, crazy, brain bleeder, another one gets wasted pick clean his bones
Why you, need me, to churn out, you bleed me, Why you, need me, to churn out, now you bleed me
Another feeder, another seeder, another one becomes a handful brain teaser, another one tries to make it on his own
Another needer, another cheater, another obnoxious, crazy, brain bleeder, another one gets wasted pick clean his bones
You my, you my, you my, brain bleeder

Karma Phala

Lay down these thoughts in this world of karma
Focus in on what’s the same between you and them
Shed off the burdens of those before us
It’s time a generation begins again
You know, you know you’ll try, to reap the fruits of your labour
There’s no one, no one but all of you, savior meets savior
Karma
This is our time
Karma
Ours
Now you know
Ingrates gridlock the path to nowhere
And tie us down in a mesh of their hate
We don’t need to follow into a blinding light
And live in a grieved and set back state
Father, you know, I cannot follow on this dead end road
We see, a new life, the old will fade away, as the young explode
Karma
This is our time
Karma
Ours
Now you know
This is our time, this is ours, a door closes, another one opens wide,
Leave disgrace far behind, yes this is ours
This is, this is our time
Now you know

Cause & Defect
04:28
|

Here’s another caution to all the people watching
Gripping hard and pawing, try to get a piece of me
All I ever wanted to be alone and haunted
It just keeps coming, racing for me
Can’t you see, it’s killing me, life is work and sadly nothing more
Dying days, trapped in a haze, how much more can I take on this killing floor
Another one with tension, working for a pension
Living hard and breathing, everything emergency
All I ever asked for, not to be some rat whore
But they keep on paying so that’s what I’ll have to be
Burn down, burn out
I’m burning out
My four walls are closing, the company’s a rowin’
Almost made the rating, but there’s nothing left to give
Use mass confusion, the threat of retribution
To keep me on a leash, now it’s just work to live
It’s burning me, awake and sleep, is this how all those that came before me felt
Tragedy, befalls the meek, but that’s all bullshit cause we know
We can change this hell
Burn down, burn out
I’m burning out (cause and defect)
Nothing left to give, no nothing left to give, blood from a stone, blood from a stone
I’m burning out (cause and defect)

Not My Cause
03:53
|
|||
So many people in this town, where all things can be found, in a tall discarding heap
And now the people they all cry for a clean breath before they die
But they’re all in too deep
And so the panic it sets in, a blackened sky chokes off the freedom
And which one did it all in, that hang noose wrapped around the ransom
Everything here has been lost, cause everything was tossed, in a tall discarding heap
And now it’s just in their dreams, pictures of beautiful scenes, only found in their sleep
And so the panic it sets in, a blackened sky chokes off the freedom
And which one did it all in, that hang noose wrapped around the ransom
And they just tread on their mother’s soul
And they just thread through any pin hole
And now they’re caught, but they don’t take pause
And they’re all taught this is not my cause
And so the panic it sets in, a blackened sky chokes off the freedom
And which one did it all in, that hang noose wrapped around the ransom
But too late to turn it back, a dream for blues skies, for freedom
And so the regret it sets in, that hang noose wrapped around the ransom
This is not my cause

Rise & Shine
04:54
|

Mothers, fathers, all just play the game
What the outcome, it’s all just the same
Freedom saves us all
Neighbors, friends, are all confused, confined
Rationing reserves of a plan defined
Everything all the time, everything all the time
Rise and shine, (fasten on their binds) make, make this day mine
Rise and shine, (fasten on their binds) make, make this day mine
Everyone so brave behind the wheel
Face to face a different look and feel
Coward paradise, coward parasite
Rise and shine, (fasten on their binds) make, make this day mine
Rise and shine, (fasten on their binds) make, make this day mine
Everything all the time, everything all the time
Rise and shine, (fasten on their binds) make, make this day mine
Rise and shine, (fasten on their binds) make, make this day mine

No Guide
03:53

The lighthouse is dark, no guide for you
No one at your side to help push and pull you through
It’s just you
Every day is something, something new
And every day there’s someone out there to put one over on you
And all these things are either gonna stiffen up your lip or bring you down
And make you question who out there will help you
It’s you, no one but you
To make it on your own, carve a heart made of stone
It’s just you
Every day is something, yes something new
And every day there’s someone out there to put one over on you
And all these things are either gonna stiffen up your lip or bring you down
And make you question who out there will help you
It’s you, just you, only you, it’s just you
And all these things are either gonna stiffen up your lip or bring you down
And make you question who out there will help you
It’s you, no one but you, to make it on your own, a heart carved of stone, it’s just you

Slaves & Drones
04:19

Everything caught in a web you testify, breach of your word has the crowds all mystified
Everyone stops to take a good look at you, water off a duck
As you cruise through this venue
Who hurts, and who dies, anyone’s guess, the answer’s just a joy ride
Pony up, the check has come it’s here, is something wrong, is the bill not clear?
It’s here, it’s time, do you know, do you know why
And you don’t know, you do just as you’re told
And you don’t know, you put your life on cruise control
And you don’t know, you do just as you’re told
And who just puts, puts their life on cruise control
Everything shot to hell you justify, grinding on your teeth, so hard to pacify
Every time you stand its grand epiphany, do what you want, how you want you tell me
Who’s got, what it takes, to get through the crowds and all these hard breaks
Who’s fast, and who’s dying, who’s got the breaks to stop on a hard dime
It’s here, it’s time, and do you know why
And you don’t know, you do just as you’re told
And you don’t know, you put your life on cruise control
And you don’t know, you do just as you’re told
And who just puts, puts their life on cruise control
Don’t pacify yourself
Testify before your time, trust yourself
And you don’t know, you do just as you’re told
And you don’t know, you put your life on cruise control
And you don’t know, you do just as you’re told
And who just puts, puts their life on cruise control

Cleanse

What goes through your mind when you’re staring that child in the eye
Just before your time
Sister, mother, father, brother, it makes no bother
You wanna take them out, to pay for others’ sins
You’ve donned and shed your doubt, it’s time let the pain dig in
I see you standing at their shrine
Hide behind the words of a lie of a faith, it’s in your face
And you take your time, when you could have been standing there, standing right in their place
You come to me with words of hope and promise of eternity
All will be well, your name in songs as we tend to your family
I have to take them out, to pay for crimes of old
I have to shed my doubt, and do just what I’m told
I see you building up my shrine
Hide behind the words of a lie of a faith, it’s in your face
And you take your time, when you could have been, should have been,
Could have been, right in my place
You do what you think is right
And now I see you standing at my shrine
Recite the words of a lie of a faith, of a better race
And you bide your time, when you could have been standing there
Standing right in my place
You will always hide, and send your praise, but you will never stand
No you will never stand right here in my....

Mind Your Luck
03:42

Everything always handed to you, you’ve never wanted for a thing in your life
It’s all just come so easy for you, always laid back never ever had to try
Mind your luck, try, mind your luck
All found face down, lying in the mud
Mind your luck
The rest of the world vying to join your club
Mind your luck
All these things that you hold so true, do you ever think that it might all just slip away
Everything that you ever knew, might be at risk and lost on any given day
Mind your luck, day, mind your luck
All found face down, lying in the mud
Mind your luck
The rest of the world vying to join your club
Mind your luck
Everything always handed to you, you’ve never wanted for a thing in your life
It’s all just come so easy for you, always laid back never ever, never ever had to try
Mind your luck, try, mind your luck

The Maidens

Fine tune your senses, this time you’re gonna need ‘em
Take a breath before you jump in and prepare to give in
I want you to shine and live in color
I want you to laugh and cry and suffer
I can’t see why you try or even bother
Try and learn from this down and failing scholar
Conscience and this consequence, high life wrapped in decadence
Failing thoughts of a better presence, all in spite of me
I am myself, I am myself, I am myself and no one else
Can’t change, can’t change and put this all up upon a shelf
Can’t give in to a guilt that will surely just destroy myself
Between you and the next game, should I play it all just the same
Will it ever get the best of me, how long before they all see?
I want you to shine and live in color
I want you to laugh and cry and suffer
I can’t see why you try or even bother
Try and learn from this down and failing scholar
Conscience and this consequence, high life wrapped in decadence
Failing thoughts of a better presence, all in spite of me
I am myself, I am myself, I am myself and no one else
Can’t change, can’t change and put this all up upon a shelf
Can’t give in to a guilt that will surely just destroy myself
Conscience and this consequence, high life wrapped in decadence
Failing thoughts of a better presence, all in spite of me
I am myself, I am myself, I am myself and no one else
Can’t change, can’t change and put this all up upon a shelf
Can’t give in to a guilt that will surely just destroy myself
I am myself (repeat)

Set It All Alight
04:58
|

And when you’re feeling blue, and there’s no one else around you
Everything is all your fault, you feel you’re not worth your salt
Come on and flick that light, no one needs to tell you what’s right
No one at all, it’s your call
You feel it now, it’s time to show them all how
Come on and make it right
Everybody, set this place alight
Come on and make it right
Everybody, set this place alight
And when you’re feeling cornered in, and every move you make is a sin
You’re told you can do no right, and everything just ends in a fight
Come on and raise your head, and show them your will ain’t dead
No one at all, it’s now your call
You feel it now, it’s time to show them all how
Come on and make it right (burn that gasoline)
Everybody, set this place alight
Come on and make it right (burn that gasoline)
Everybody, set this place alight
And when you’re feeling blue, and there’s no one else around you
And everything is all your fault, you feel you’re not worth your salt
Come on and flick that light, no one needs to tell you what the fuck is right
No one at all, it’s now your call
You feel it now, it’s time to show them all how
Come on and make it right (burn that gasoline)
Everybody, set this place alight
Come on and make it right (burn that gasoline)
Everybody set this place alight
Come on and make it right (burn that gasoline)
Everybody, set this place alight
Come on and make it right (burn that gasoline)
Everybody set this place alight

On Their Watch
03:31

It takes one to know one, it takes two to get on and grow one
Spread like cancer, like rats in a cage, look to spread out, disgusting, disgraceful age
Raising up a slow gun, ravage and confine every last one
A treatment of the mass, to save all the places, before the last inch is lost to the races
The shade is raised, the lights flood in, a thousand hands held to the sky
This is the line, they’re out to plan a mass world wide suicide
A tomb stone that’s homegrown to remember those the world has outgrown
Feeling tight and closed in, like the end of days, on their watch they become filled with rage
The shade is raised, the lights flood in, a thousand hands held to the sky
This is the line, they’re out to plan a mass world wide suicide
The shade is raised, the lights flood in, a thousand hands held to the sky
This is the line, they’re out to plan a mass world wide suicide
And you won’t see, the plan set out, to free a world before it dies
And on their watch, they carry out a mass worldwide suicide

It’s you over me, and that’s what you see, your problems bound to swallow me
It’s what you get, not what you give, you’ll throw me under wheel so you can live
Frenetic tones spewing from your mouth, I watch this shit all take a drive south
Try to run just to save me, it’s hard to out run stone cold crazy
You’re going down, you’re going down
Damn you woman, you’re 13 shades of bat shit crazy
Montreal, another try, another run at another guy,
The shit you spread is lie on lie, to hang me out to dry
Find the ears that you can bend, on twisted version you depend,
Ain’t that fat from being lazy, you’re just 13 shades of bat shit crazy
You’re going down, you’re going down
Damn you woman, you’re 13 shades of bat shit crazy
Damn you woman, you’re gonna burn baby, you’re gonna burn
Damn you woman, you’re gonna burn baby, you’re going down
I don’t get it. How do you just throw someone you love under a bus? How do you rape someone’s trust that way? Do you just bend them over and give it to them when they least expect it? Is it that you’re off your meds or are you just completely fuckin’ crazy? I need to know. I need to know.
Damn you woman, you’re 13 shades of bat shit crazy
