Entertained?

I'm coughing up your trash, all disinformative filth
you force-feed to the masses you pathetic little shit
I am sick for I don't understand the beauty of standing in line,
gazed at what you sell, time after time
and after time and after time nothing satisfies
yes, you are breathing, but are you really alive?
The last trace of individuality lays buried
in this pulp that you so deeply adore
I'm a nobody, I'm just another face
nobody, I'm just another face
a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy
of a same-old, same-old, same-old, same-old
Are you not entertained?
We are overrun by an audio-visual locust swarm. Ready-made images take away the will and motivation to accomplish anything in life. We receive gratification for stagnation, retaining the seated position against all humanly instincts of curiosity. As it pushes them aside, the information stampede chokes the last breaths of what made us beautiful individuals in the first place.
Substitute love with lust
Substitute God with ego
Blended onto one mass, indifferent on principle to any principles, we form the perfect particles of social clay - colourless, undemanding and easily-formable – to serve the only true cause. The one you were told to serve, that is.
Substitute love with lust
Substitute God with ego
Substitute hope with fear
Substitute love with fucking
Are you not entertained?
A 3-star gourmet dish served but tasteless
it collapses as you puncture through the structure outside
it will stuff you, it will bloat you, clot you up
and leave you sterile, yet empty inside
The walls are closing in, your skin stretches,
any minute now you feel that it is going to break
The picture is degrading and it's clear
that the colorful ink was always fake

Scapegoat

Break me, mend me, rape me, save me, kill me, cure me, hate me, love me, push me, hug me, punch me, catch me, shove me, grab me, kick me, hold me, hurt me, feel me, hit me, shield me, slap me, pet me, wound me, heal me, crush me, hush me, cross me, guard me, judge me, fend me, jail me, free me
It's all been done before
I can take some more
Bring me down for whatever reason
I'm here to serve not demand
Now my heart's laid out on a plate before you
Chew on it, spit it out
Agonizing, mesmerizing
What's it gonna' be this time?
Push the blade inside me as you kiss me on the cheek and smile
It's all been done before
I can take no more
I'm your scapegoat
You can do no wrong
I'm your scapegoat
You can do no wrong
Bring me down for whatever reason
I'm here to serve not demand
Now my heart's laid out on a plate before you
Chew on it, spit it out
I'm your scapegoat
You can do no wrong
I'm your scapegoat
You can do no wrong

Ivory Tower

bend the rules
ride the curve
bend the rules
you're gratified
build the tower high
block out the sunlight
we crossed the line of good and bad
so many times, the values have been reset
break the rules
it's justified
break the rules
whitewash what you can't hide
your cup is made of gold
but wine has turned to blood
it is the greatest lie we're told
your actions don't mean anything at all
there's something rotten inside your state of mind
all's forgotten, God is damn hard to find
weak and corrupt hold hands as they dance around
a stockpile of ideals burning to the ground
push away the truth for temporary bliss
your self-righteousness is an illusion, please!
eyes get used to darkness as time goes by
relativism is mankind's suicide

Pit of Despair

We're bugs, we're pest, we're parasites
There is no hope, no hope in sight
we're piles of flesh unclean and foul
the very few heroes have been devoured
Permission to speak, but where is your god in all this?
How can I believe we weren't abandoned by him?
Enslavement, genocide
constant rape of your own kind
Pollution, resource theft
the murder of our Mother Earth
False hope and treachery
faith-healing as a tool of greed
Betrayal, infidelity
deception to get what you please.
When was the last time you felt you're not worthless
and your actions were not pointless
it's all all a joke
you'll slowly fade away and die alone
Permission to speak, but where is your god in all this?
How can I believe we weren't abandoned by him?
Permission to speak, but where is your god in all this?
How can I believe we weren't abandoned by him?
But if only I could have you here, none of this would matter
we wouldn't need to run away or even have to bother
'cause the light you bring would be my Sun and guide our way
in this fantasy we'd have each other, at last be free
