Looking past the cloud of grey into the cold steely eye It is only dead and black inside With naive confidence Look around, it all makes sense But there’s no such thing a sense sometimes And it feels like there’s always someone else to blame And it seems like we always pass along our pain A good deed is like a memory Just a sweet passing by Just as quickly come as quickly gone Seem to bear the burden of the fools that put us down Some things we do we know are wrong And it feels like there’s always someone else to blame And it seems like we always pass along our pain

Wired Minds 05:17
The beast it grows inside It’s gorged on bread and wine It’s hunger never dies We never wonder why We’re raised for sacrifice Except this role in life Floating calmly like a cloud in the sky Wired minds more dead than alive Working hard, just a part of the hive Cut the cord and feel alive Feed cake to idle minds T.V. improves your life You are just what you buy We never wonder why We’re raised for sacrifice Except this role in life Floating calmly like a cloud in the sky Wired minds, more dead than alive Working hard, just a part of the hive Cut the cord and feel alive We never wonder why We’re raised for sacrifice Except this role in life I defy

Honest Man 06:17
There’s no more innocence There never was in fact Faith in the truth in fiction And the lie in contracts Just forget about what you thought was true Just remember that you don’t belong to you What did you wanna be There’s no such thing as an honest man who conquers But before you know, you are in the show Nothing is the same anymore What did you wanna be No such thing as an honest man who conquers anyone What did you wanna be No such thing as a conqueror who honors anyone But before you know, you are in the show Nothing is the same anymore

They live one way predictably I live backwards, diagonally And I won’t just agree to be a part of their game And I won’t ever lie to make things seem ok They live life like a list on a page Of all the thing they are giving away So I spend my time wise finding new games I wanna know what I like before they take it away Their little rat race has defaced the unique human mind I am done with regrets, I’m not wasting more time And I know I’m alright, I’m wide awake For the first time I feel perfectly sane I’ll never be just another little liar on wires and strings And I know I’m alright, I’m wide awake For the first time I feel perfectly sane

Awake 04:43
7.
I’ve seen the world pass me by I’ve felt the rain and touched the sky Here we are, just bold enough to really know Ready? Go. I’ve do not fear the unknown I’ve seen the world from the moon All these machines don’t substitute a life Running from fear does not dignify I’ll climb the gates and stare Him in the eye I’ll stare Him in the eye and tell him I decide Here we are just bold enough to tell Him so Ready? Go. Here we are just bold enough to really know Ready. Go.

Buzz Saw 05:12
And you know it can’t be right But you do it anyway The target is in sight Your conscience fades away And what you are inside, you betray Any virtue left alive dies today The devil pays you right To be sure you never stray The bodies in your wake Are our price to pay For the giving you our trust And the flag you wave You stare us in the eye And you betray
