I won't fight for a cause that's been lost
When we gave up our nature -- denial
Too many faces are glowing with pride and assurance
But it's their loss
Don't you see
The skyscrapers
They're too big to bring down
Awareness of our conditioning is slowly seeping, leaking
The cracks we've made in the temple of want do seem useless
But it's their loss
Step away
The mind rapers
They will drown in their greed
Stop the want
Don't let it fuck with you
. . .

Sometime soon I think I'll find my place
Never fit into the mould I was given
But am I too afraid to find out what I am?
Or is there something in my way that I don't know about?
Sorry if I failed you
I don't know me
I won't know my face
So find me my place
I don't want us to end our lives
In the confines of a cubicle so sterile
But who am I to say
What you consider bliss
I'm just warning you that all the straps will hold you down
Can't you see
That I don't share or care for
The dreams you have
The dreams you have for me
. . .

I put if off until it creeped on me
But I was sure, so sure that I could bury it to sea
It destroyed me
It took my mind and made it hurt
The paranoia won't let me function in this world
I fear my mind is playing round
Trying to find some self control
I fear the fear is gaining ground
I need a phase to channel you out
It took some time to know the voice inside
She is a liar, she doesn't give you compliments
I destroyed her
My mind is right now in my hands
Don't listen to her -- I know a noise that deafens her out
Channel you out so I can see
The world without these rings
Cause I want to see you
Without these rings underneath my eyes
. . .

Try to break away from you
But you won't let me go
You impose your point of view
And you won't let me know
You create my solitude
In independance
My fate awaits this somber mood
So justify conformity
I need to break these chains
Change chains
Before I live in vain
Change chains...
Pry the lid open on you
But you manage to lie low
You depose the reign of truth
Claim not to be my foe
You create my emptiness
With false ambitions
It's hard to live alone in this view
So justify conformity
I need to break these chains
Change chains
Before I live in vain
Change chains
I need to break these chains
Change chains
Before I live in vain
Liberate your precious minds from the chains of empty thoughts
. . .

We are never the culprits
We are always the victims
Blind yourselves with indignation
Feed the mass a vengeful elation
Enjoy the last era, you ignorant hate machine
Enjoy the last era, you ignorant pride machine
Incite the mass to hate our brothers
Feed the mass a justified murder
We are never the culprits in this world
We are always the victims who will fold
You act as if our hands were spotless
Facts are picked to suit our own causes
Enjoy the last era you pathetic propaganda whore
When will you realize there's nothing worth dying for
And now you've wasted your existence
To feed the mass a justified murder
You feel hate to give you purpose
Lost yourself in a larger cause
Step outside your righteous pose
Your beliefs are not the laws
I hope I'm there when there's nothing left to hate
. . .

I feel like something has come to take me away
I feel like something has done away with me
I am your victim
Feels like you're using me as prey
Lights getting dim
Feels like your're causing me to pay
Patience, conscience
Slowly slip in sin
I can't handle
Living freely in manufactured lives
I can't handle
My face has been moulded by defeat
I can't handle
More lies breeding hatred in disguise
Maybe if I cared then you would sense my grief
I'm so washed over that nothing penetrates
Can't cut the strings
Feels like I'm rotting at the core
Stepped out of rhythm
And now it's causing me to pay
. . .

You're sad cause you found yourself
And the boredom is killing you
You know all the cracks in your wall
They're staring right back at you
In time you will see
You're not alone in this tonight
I know your void
The boredom is killing you -- take flight
Away from yourself
Disguise yourself in your masks
And you're running away from life
You're balancing on the thin line
You'd better rush back to shore
In time you will see
There's no running
A restless static in your being
Alters everything you're seeing
When all the outlets seem so worn
You shouldn't feel so torn
You're not alone in this tonight
There's more than one
Person inside of you, take flight
Away from yourself
. . .

Build your cages, pray for freedom
Believe all your made up sages
Sucked out from your social circle
Is it worth the fifteen minutes?
Sacrifice everything you know you love
The dream entices you to give yourself away
Sacrifice everything you know you love
You miss the things you hated long ago
Embelish your desired state
Do you think it satiates?
Dreams are seldom what they seem
. . .

I'm so sick and tired of never being gratified
I'm special when I cut you, I like to see you bleed
I feed off your dejections, it's all I could conceive
I'm so sick and tired of never being
When will my desire ever stop
I'm so sick and tired of never being gratified
When will my desire ever stop or petrify
I hate you cause you chase me while in front of me
Is there something I could do now to enjoy this breath
I'm so sick and tired of never feeling
When will I aquire a sense of living
I'm so sick and tired of never being gratisfied
Is there something I could do now to enjoy this breath
I'm so sick and tired of never being satisfied
. . .

Why do you judge me?
It's time to get over yourself
Morals dissipating
Gives me eyes to get a closer look
Oh, I'll get a closer look
Why do you judge me this way? I don't know
I've made mistakes more than once
My views mismatch me
About time to get over myself
So much retribution
I'm only human
I can't offer you perfection
I can offer you a closer look into my view
I gave in one too many times
I rectify myself with guilt
But it's overwhelming me
. . .

Suspended in nothing too dramatic
Leads me wanting dissonance
My fulfillment is often sporadic
Trying to hit my resonance
Nothing is yours
Nothing is mine
Nothing is mine
Nothing is yours
Nothing is yours
Don't get so caught up with all
Owning that stores all your vibes
Inside this glass door
Depression sets in like a neighbor unwanted
You can't refuse cause it's not your house
Once you stop buying discover the haunted void
That you fill in with material malice
Nothing's set in stone for the fearful
Nothing's set; your life is rented
So burn all the shit you own
. . .

Waking in this state
The world seems strange to me
How can something so beautiful shine on something so dreadful?
Realized this too late
You sell them short for what they are
One day they'll show you who they are
Leave it to us to tape our mouths
The silence will add more to release
Cause talking has become a taboo
If only they knew the power that they had
I wake up and find myself unstable
I'm hoping that this world is just a fable
How can something so beautiful shine on something so dreadful?
The hunger necessitates the slaves
To fasten and redirect their waves
One day the silence will be torn
Despoil these social straps we've worn
If only they knew the power that they had
You sell them short
Realized it's too late to fight it
Realized it's too late
. . .
