Broken Ego Machine
04:25
|
|||
Stripped down to the broken pieces
Iron rust and slag
Stress fractured in filth and glory
Revel in decay
You want another piece
Of automated sleaze
And the lights turned low
A medicated dream
Is what you believe
Is going to fill this hole
Rebuilt from the broken pieces
Toxic impure unclean
Manufactured a different story
Beauty from deceit
You take another piece
To feed this ego machine
And when the lights burn out
Self medicated sleep
Is just what you believe
Is going to fix you now
This bitterness
It never fades
Consumes my soul
And ruins everything
And I'm slipping
Further everyday
Won't be too long
'til nothing's left of me

Poisodrene
03:54
|
|||
Choke back a smile
Feel the slight
Sinking deeper
All the time
Going back
For another round
Jagged edges, nothing clean
Busted lip, ain't what it seems
Jagged edges, nothing clean
Worse than before, you've ever seen
Ain't found a reason to believe
Overhead the wires swing
Acid soaked with poisodrene
Stripped down and grinding day to day
And I swear everything's okay
It doesn't matter anyway
Broken down and
Stalling out
Isn't this what
Its all about
Self deceit
Kills the king
Jagged edges, nothing clean
Busted lip, ain't what it seems
Jagged edges, nothing clean
Worse than before, you've ever seen
Ain't found a reason to believe
Overhead the wires swing
Acid soaked with poisodrene
Stripped down and grinding day to day
And I swear everything's okay
It doesn't matter anyway
Face first into the ground
Go ahead and take your filthy pound
Walk the path, crawl a mile
Change the scene once again
My way of life I won't defend
The wicked hand breaks the man
My way of life I won't defend

Disconnect
05:38
|
|||
I got this feeling
That I can't describe
The fire that burns within
Consumes until it dies
I want no piece of this
I'm better off inside
Don't want no piece of this
I'll isolate my mind
I disconnect from
The world around me
This jaded isolation
Destroyed the old me
I disconnect from
The world around me
This jaded isolation
Destroyed the old me
There's no ghost in this machine
I had to let it die
Had to trade away tomorrow
For a better life
And I'm not fit for this
I'm broken down inside
And I'm not fit for this
I'll isolate my mind
I disconnect from
The world around me
This jaded isolation
Destroyed the old me
I disconnect from
The world around me
This jaded isolation
Destroyed the old me

The Indifference Point
04:04
|
|||
Back broken and used
I think we've heard this all before
Your story's nothing new
And I can't take this anymore
Just between me and you
It's all the same
What a difference
One day can make
And all the colors begin to fade
It doesn't matter, no
It doesn't matter
The indifference point turns it all to gray
It doesn't matter
Doesn't matter
Worn out and misused
All patience unaccounted for
Your ego needs the abuse
And I keep giving more and more
Just between me and you
It's all the same
What a difference
One hit can make
And all the colors begin to fade
It doesn't matter, no
It doesn't matter
The indifference point turns it all to gray
It doesn't matter
Doesn't matter
And all the colors begin to fade
It doesn't matter, no
It doesn't matter
The indifference point turns it all the same
Turns it all the same
Turns it all the same

One And The Same
05:42
|
|||
A cold sweat desperation
Drives the daily routine
Digitized and meaningless
Another soulless machine
There's no need for determination
And no reason to change
There's no past present future here
It's all one
It's all one and the same
We used to be proud and strong
You carried on with a head of stone
The only thing I learned
I am the problem
Still burning hot
You got the heavy pulse
A static hiss from below
Life begins to choke
With no sense of satisfaction
There's only love in decay
There's no pain no joy no suffering
It's all one
It's all one and the same
We used to be proud and strong
You carried on with a head of stone
The only thing I learned
I am the problem
We used to be proud and strong
We all believed we could do no wrong
The only lesson learned
We are the problem
You're no good for me
I'm no good for you
But I'd set the world on fire
If you asked me to
I'm no good for you
You're no good for me
And I self destruct to disconnect
The A from B
We are the problem

Everything
05:15
|
|||
Another shot and a drag
To ease my mind
Soaked in distress and moral decay
I swear I'm doing just fine
And down she goes
In the cigarettes glow
And the engines starting to whine
Whatever it takes
A chemical break
And a slow grade burn to the end
And she says:
I swear this'll be everything that you want
I swear this'll be everything that you want
This is the time and this is the place
I don't care if it's not right
As my vision blurs the neon lights burn
I get lost in her oil slicked eyes
Breathe in her fumes
Choke the air from the room
It brings me to my knees
Drink up the sin
Let the madness begin
Relax and just let her ride
And she says:
I swear this'll be everything that you want
I swear this'll be everything that you want

Nowhere
03:53
|
|||
Cig stained lines
And chemical dives
You've got a pocket full of lows
And you're coming in real high
A hardwired sound
Surrounds you
I know that this is what you are
Whiskey soaked truth
And staggering highs
There's a thousand revelations
Blurring the hard line
Collapsing the wave
Around you
I know that this is what you are
A pocket full of lows and you're going nowhere
You made this
It follows you
Into the dark
Going nowhere
You made this
It follows you
Into the dark
Going nowhere

The Generation Of Doom
03:21
|
|||
Take what you need baby
Do what you please
Nobody else gives a damn
We're too obsessed
Planning our own deaths
You've got your own disease
Is this all
Is this all there is
We're apathetic
And nihilistic
A generation of doom
We're too far gone baby
It won't be long
'til everything crashes down
Is this all
Is this all there is
So apathetic
Not unexpected
A generation of doom
So apathetic
It's automatic
The generation of doom
A generation of doom
The generation of doom

Human
05:39
|

Can you feel it
The shifting ground beneath
And can you dig it
This is what we need
What do you value
What do you believe
It no longer matters
The writings on the wall
And nothing is perfect
There's nothing beautiful
A human wasteland
Waiting for the fall
And do you believe
We're gonna turn out fine
And can you see it
I can't find the line
And what do you value
What do you believe
It no longer matters
The writings on the wall
And nothing is perfect
There's nothing beautiful
A human wasteland
Waiting for the fall

The Distance
03:50
|
|||
I lost my way 10 years ago
And I'm reeling
Worn out beaten down
By my own hands
A worthless feeling
I found some meaning in the noise
Wash away my fears
Look deeper inside for a reason
Than I had before
Still struggling to get back those 10 years
And where did they go
A lifetime of hard drink
And I'm failing
With nothing to show
I found some meaning in the noise
Wash away my fears
Look deeper inside for a reason
Than I had before
I don't think you realize what it all means
The difference
The distance
