baby I'm a truck with an ugly grill, 'cause I pull to the left and I've got no chill
maybe I'm a siren but I'm not sure, the means ain't pretty but the motive's pure
So hit the deck with a sickle and a hammer, talk in binary with a radio jammer
cops and robbers, banks and debt, looks to kill, you make a diamond sweat
this is the purest feeling (give me that feeling)
this is the purest feeling (purest feeling)
is this the real thing? (is this the real thing?)
is this the real thing? (is this the real thing?)
is this the real thing? (is this the real thing?)
is this the real thing? (is this the real thing?)
shiver down your spine when you're warm inside, sparks in your mind, thoughts in your dynamo
look back at where you've been, drowned in sin, isn't it fun now?
got a plan in a plastic bag, filed with cans, filled with dynamite
got a message, for the big man, and it's gonna be her tonight
this is the purest feeling (purest feeling)
this is the purest feeling (it's the purest feeling)
this is the purest feeling (purest feeling)
this is the purest feeling (it's the purest feeling)
is this the real thing? (is this the real thing ?)
is this the real thing? (is this the real thing?)
is this the real thing? (is this the real thing?)
is this the real thing? (is this the real thing?)
isn't it a tragedy? we're singing songs in harmony
but I can't hear you through the static
and there is never gonna be, I don't want to ever see
another day without a rainbow
and we make all the noise with our electronic toys
dissonant and automatic
if you don't know how to dance, you can dance with me
I will show you how we do it
how we do it
how we do it
how we do
this is the purest feeling (purest feeling)
this is the purest feeling (it's the purest feeling)
this is the purest feeling (purest feeling)
this is the purest feeling (it's the purest feeling)
is this the real thing? (is this the real thing ?)
is this the real thing? (is this the real thing?)
is this the real thing? (is this the real thing?)
is this the real thing? (is this the real thing?)

Be The ghost
02:15
|
|||
hey, you know you're beautiful
hey, I know I never say
hey, it's something spiritual
hey, but I've got something to say
hey my friend, all covered in rust
my little toy I can see you're corroded
hey precious mind, what are you thinking
yeah, I wanna be the ghost in your machine
hey, you know you're powerful
hey, and you're not going away
say, what you want and you take it
and I'm always here to play
|

I swear to god I would treat this affliction
defined by my hand with no chance to repent
I know by now I define my condition
there's so much more I have left to invent
I mark the skin, cut the line for the surgery
I feel the bleed, digging deep, there's much more to me
rip out my heart, it doesn't beat, defines mortality
refit my soul, in this pretty machine
as sight gives to blindness I speak in the ether
stitch me back up, opiates for the pain
cheating at chess as I laugh at the reaper
filling the gap in my body and brain
|

Cryptic Desire
03:46
|
|||
turn on the dark, and hit the reflex
put a fist in the air we are the rejects
never want to be another consumer
tweak my bias I'm a fast rebooter
I'm not a man, I'm a weapon in genes
got a reputation for being obscene
hard lock when you walk in the room
cryptic desire, the mechanics confused
back on the case, slam the bass
here's a glitch like a twitch in your interface
Kickstart, boot to RISC
you'll never hear the scratch in the compact disk

Faith Required
02:52
|
|||
your faith is required
your faith is required
your faith is required
your faith is required
your faith is required
your faith is required
your faith is required
for evil men will do evil things
all their hopes and dreams cause suffering
your faith is required
your faith is required
your faith is required
your faith is required
now listen up, you've got to hear what I say
the prison around you only works while you are faithful
now heretics, yeah we take to the street
and we hear the state beating of the jackboots marching
smile wide, I'm a decentered dissenter
make mine a mazel tov cocktail
so get on your knees and put your hands behind your head
and start praying that your faith will be rewarded
we're better off dead, and that's ok
that's how they want you anyway
so keep on breathing through the blood in your mouth
and as we fight, reject, remorse
we feel the weakness of the force
as the boys in blue retreat
we hit the ground dancing
your faith is required
your faith is required
your faith is required
your faith is required
your faith is required
your faith is required
your faith is required
your faith is required

When The Devil Calls
04:04
|
|||
don't turn your back, don't look away
your solitary dream, your solitary disconnect
am I the monster that you see?
I'm sorry I don't hurt that way, you'll never poison me
I see your wings are ash now, tasted corrosion on your tongue
the sweetest kiss is the last one, you're operating this operator
you could say I love you
I could say I love you too
you could say I love you
make me want to die with you
you can be the raven
I could be the claws
you can give me wings
until the devil calls

Inside You
04:24
|
|||
any way you slice it, there's no reason
cut it up better than this
any way you slice it, no surrender
split my lip, just more to kiss
when all the lights go out
watch out we're right behind you
when all the lights go out
we're gonna get inside you
any way you slice it, there's no reason
cut it up better than this
any way you slice it, no surrender
split my lip, just more to kiss
do you fear the end? the crescendo of your life
the bitter twist, that poison kiss that eats away your vice
oxygen, corrosion in the veins
gave us voice, so we can say, that we'll forget your name
are you lonely, silent preacher? weeping, begging, broken creature?
malice formed, and tucked away, left to rot, your soul decays
you know your biggest fear, you know your greatest doubt
it lives inside your head, and you can never dig it out
To lose to control, to de-evolve, the puzzle you can never solve
disregarded affectation, symptomatic manifestation
Maybe you're sick, maybe you're not, maybe no one cares until your heart has turned to rock
what if you're just blind and deaf, what if that's your final breath
choking, writhing, twisted friend, you'll be forgotten in the end
there is no hate, there's no reason why
I'll sleep inside your head and I'll be there when you die
|

Tell me I'm pretty, I've never been sure,
you've got my lipstick on your neck, ordre du jour.
Is it the things that I say, or the things that I do?
Is it my manner or my means, or am I making you blue?
Silks and satins, leather and lace,
there's a tremble in your tempo, a swell in your bass.
watch me swing my hips, put indecision to rest,
baby this is just a job, but you know I'm the best.
Sugar daddy
femme fatale

No More Heartbeat
02:44
|
|||
mechanically you think I want to be engaged?
you think I won't want you to take it all away?
I don't want this flesh that needs flesh
I don't want this pain my heart rejects
sometimes I just want to be alone
no forked tongue snaking down my microphone
I don't care if I don't care
if I ask for torture it's because I'm already there
no, no more hating
no, infiltrating
no, no more torture
no, no more heartbeat

My beautiful Halloween,
I can hear it, the night comes a-calling,
my beautiful Halloween,
as I watch it all go away, go away.
go away.
trick or treat, we'll never be the same,
little gifts I gave to you.
Turn the cheek, a fool by any other name,
would you swallow a razor too.
heathens dressed up like superman,
the little kids don't know what they got into.
it's my party my Halloween,
you're gonna love the scars that I would give you.
my beautiful Halloween,
I can hear the witches still chanting,
my beautiful Halloween,
as I watch it all go away.
my beautiful Halloween,
I can see the fires still burning,
my beautiful Halloween,
as I watch it all go away.
Catch this, see the living dressed up like ghosts,
pull a trick, make a baby cry.
cut up, hiding in a church for the night,
no safe haven from our delight.
don't run, only hurts 'til you start to smile,
love the monsters surrounding you.
don't lie, a hole where a soul should have been,
beautiful on Halloween.

No More Skulls and Bones
03:16
|
|||
no more skulls and bones
bones ain't nothing but curses
you seal your fate with your skull
we're doctors sitting on wires
I'm here to tell you nothing, I'm here to tell you everything
no more skulls and bones
no more skulls and bones
no more skulls and bones
no more skulls and bones
plague may come, wipe the meat from your carbon
but all I hear is the banging of the war drum
bang, bang, came a shot from the hero
rattle your cell, we're starting world war zero
as ages pass, days divine
a family of traitors is a family of mine
no crooked concept or mind distorted
fracturing the looking glass, this time the villain's rewarded
no more skulls and bones
no more skulls and bones
betray your bones, but don't betray your mind
genuflect, the person you can be inside
I see the crowd chasing golden chains, you look so bored
take your soul back, and you'll be adored
you could be a better person
a better place, a better time
maybe I'm utopian
you tell me my life is a crime
so back and forth the bullets still fly
there's too many pretty bodies buried under ugly lies
no more skulls and bones
no more skulls and bones
no more skulls and bones
no more skulls and bones
no more skulls and bones
no more skulls and bones
no more skulls and bones
no more skulls and bones
skulls and bones
skulls and bones
skulls and bones
no more skulls and bones

Razorgirl
02:54
|
|||
here comes the punk and she's ready for fun
it's a criminal digital age
here comes the punk and she's ready for fun
it's a criminal digital age
here's comes that cyberpunk
here comes that goth rhythm
here comes a brutalette,
razorgirl retrofitted
with a little bit of rhapsody
take a ride on the ecstasy
got no need for binary
we're cyberpunks tonight
|

Cut me open fix my bones.
Devoid I am, I am evolved.
A prophet for technology.
upgrading my philosophy.
I need more ports to interface.
repeat my heartbeat in the bass.
shut me down I'll never die.
we're waiting for the cyberchrist.

Screaming Out Loud
03:45
|
|||
I came here to party with the freaks
I know how to get freaky
I came here to party with the freaks
with the straps, the whips and chains
screaming out loud to the powers that be
tell the powers that be where to shove it
screaming out loud I'm a dynamite love,
gonna blow your mind, you love it
ain't no shame in feeling how the body wants to feel
got your hair standing on end, gonna rip into your appeal
'cause baby I'm no masochist, but damn I'm not a pacifist
maybe I'm too intact for this, I'm active on the steel
damn if I'm a liar did you hear what I said?
the would-be son of man is lying dead in the bed
the princess at the helm with pain stained fears
you gotta mutilate me, carve off these tears

The Grand Parade
02:20
|
|||
what am I without this?
I welcome you to the grand parade
where things aren't as they seem
here's some philosophy for free
man cannot live as an identity alone
but he defines his reality through acts of inhumanity
to bleed out all the rest
defined by his own hand, the idle god that walks the land
it's the curse of those who live and breathe and die
to ask the question last and never live to wonder why am I here?
is that an answer for me, or a warning for you?
the more I dig, the more I find as I cut
the bleeding heart of man, that beats without
and without me, because I am more than can be defined by the tongue of a penitent man and the curses he leaves behind
The educated answer to the few
is that I am not a man any more than my body's a corpse
one day you'll bury me, in a grave fit for bones
but the answer to the masses is just
leave me alone

A Deeper Hole (Bonus)
03:54
|
|||
back once again to make your eardrums quake,
is this a fresh cut or just a mistake?
'cause I've made a few but not as many as you,
still waiting on that contract but what can you do?
so I'll scratch a song about alienation,
the bottom line is still monetization,
pandering to advertise, while loyalists avert their eyes.
I'm triggered, yeah, that's a damn good joke,
punch punch punchline, yeah the records broke.
Sorry if I'm sounding bitter, have some gin, you'll feel better.
I've heard a little kiss and tell,
I'll spare their shame, it's just as well.
How young were those girls anyway?
I'm sure it's fine, yeah it's ok.
psyche.
ok, here's the fun bit.
advertise with no disclosure,
gotta sell your soul to make that bank.
