Feels like I'm waiting for a funeral, that rapturous tension choking the air. Tastes like vodka, mixed with nitroglycerin, sounds like horns, that echo in the deep. Regain composure, with a shot glass filled with ice, a little kiss to tell me that my heart is broken still. My mind just won't sleep, just tosses and turns, and tells me that I'm free, but I'd rather be in love. Expect the unexpected, and burn whatever's left, little twitches and winks, from witches in the night, make me feel like Casanova, but I know that isn't right. What's left for a man who loved to hate? now that he's lost that love, now he hates to hate, but hates with greater fervour. A heart like mine is delicate, as a fist in a velvet glove, softly breaking every bone that I need to stand. Feels like I'm waiting for something to snap, feels like I'm waiting for a funeral, and this time it might be mine.
2.
my mind pollutes, distorts my crime, it's all the same, burning Palestine. so give me life, or give me death, or give me another option. try to pass the blame, on an innocent man, try to light a flame, in the holy land. all prophets talk to me, in the end you'll see, I deem you unworthy.
3.
Look into the sky as it all goes away, watching as the screen fades to black, plugging in your brain, an unrecognised device, I'm your screen saviour. This machine's becoming redundant. This mechanical mind. this partition, can't make a decision, without a driver inside. This device, I call it my body. This upgrade, I call it insight. Technology, I long to evolve me, a clockwork heart beating harder inside. Look without your eyes see the world through a camera lens, rapture in your technical glee. you don't need to fear a new world bathed in acid rain, nature bows to technology. the smallest price to pay, sell your meat for a metal shell, back up your brain on magnetic tape, death becomes a myth as a legacy device, my steel shell will outlive you all. Synthetic carbon, that gleams in the sunlight, circuits and pistons to augment myself. drop forge my system and make me less human, no more disease, a firewall to my health. and maybe so, I'll be something diabolic, it may be true that I won't be myself, but I'd become a cybernetic chimera, that final cut as the last thing I felt.

Paragon 04:14
Technology. Revolution. thought I could be. Your paragon. A little twinge of notion in you, the system comprehends, the ghost inside the machine rings true, it understands. These are the best of times, these are the worst of times, these are the good days, the old days, the bad days, the glory days, the gory days, the history, the mystery. For crying out loud, there's a sound in the crowd, make you scream and make you shout if you're ready or not, don't throw your hands in the air because I really don't care, if you're sick or just a sycophant, you're nothing to me. As we all get older, on this sphere, this revolver, this burnt out husk we call the world, this planet made of dust, came from Adam and Eve, right down to me, give me Lillith, make it fun, a generation on the run. Beautiful and clandestine.
5.
Absurdity 03:46
what's this, another reason to fight? another violent delight, oh, pinch me I must be dreaming. Quite right, we're starting fires tonight, until we burn out the light, oh, a taste of absurdity. And now, we hear the tales they say, the piper leads us astray, oh, tell me a better story. with this, we find a reason to be, but there's no passion from me, oh, a taste of absurdity. don't tell me that you haven't heard, the malice hidden in the word, the dove becomes a flightless bird, bowing down to absurdity. Write the book and read along, as atoms split inside a bomb, and bitch that everything is wrong, as you promote your absurdity. Turn a trick to pay the way, and blame it all on yesterday, smoke all of your cares away, an addict for this absurdity. tell me that my right is wrong, but I believed it for so long, bury my head inside a song, I'm a slave to absurdity.
6.
sell your soul for riches sold in dollar stores around the world. and carry all that you can hold until your final day. pay checks on a piece of paper, no value, it's just a dream. cash it in for petty baubles, advertised on TV screens. Democracy is not philosophy. behind each good man, a nation stands, trading in what makes them breathe. there's no commercial plan for a capitalist man, paying for democracy. and in the end we pay, for our bills today, throw away your voting rights. while the power may flow, letting us play, powering our neon lights.

Mirror 03:32
tell me am I so ugly? tell me am I insane? just want someone to love me, the words that echo in my brain. my body crawls with spiders, burrowing under my skin, extract with a Stanley knife, can't seem to keep the blood in. and I'm afraid to say, in case I tell the truth, he's hiding in the mirror, the man who fell in love with you. Mirror mirror on the wall, tell me am I so small? what did I do wrong? and will I learn to carry on? Mirror mirror on the wall, tell me am I so small? what did I do wrong? and will I learn to carry on? this split that drives me on to say, I love you more each passing day, wanted my dreams to last forever, but forgot to sleep today. and as I turn to dust will you, forget when love was pure and true, the sun was warm, the sky was blue, when I was with you. this looking glass that I embrace, with an unfamiliar face, of a man who once loved you, crying softly. and I'm afraid to say, in case I tell the truth, he's hiding in the mirror, the man who fell in love with you. Mirror mirror on the wall, tell me am I so small? what did I do wrong? and will I learn to carry on? Mirror mirror on the wall, tell me am I so small? what did I do wrong? and will I learn to carry on?

Princess 04:18
Hey there princess, I see you looking at me, walking around like you own this city. Hey there princess, don't I conform to you? It must be nice to be so fucking pretty. Princess perfect, she must live in the clouds, but she's so humble to still walk on the ground. stole her look, from a fashion magazine, she's got no flaws, and she's boring to me. pretty thing, don't tell me I'm not your type, I know the kind of guy you need, we drink too much, and we know how to fight, and we fuck like machines. Hey there princess, you look like you hate me, but that's OK, I hate you too. 'cause I'm filthy, and dirty, and cynical too, yeah, and I'm still better than you. You look uptight, let me buy you a drink, don't try to talk or you might have to think. you've got a thousand dollar purse, but I'm not impressed, you think you look so good, but you'd look better undressed. Hey princess. Guess what I'm gonna do. I'd planned to sleep alone. Maybe instead I'll ruin you. Pretty princess. I see you sneering. I'll whisper gently. And fuck you harder.

Take 03:49
Take my fear. Take my mind. Take my medication. Take my time. (Blend lightly and go nuts on a drum machine.)
10.
I bring corruption, I bring you pain, I bring perception, I am everything. I bring desire, I bring you change, I bring you fire, I am everything. is all this real? are you so sure? that's your opinion, I am everything. this reality, that you invent, I don't believe it, I am everything. I raise my head high, so I can see, nothing for miles, I am everything. I know no reason, I know no creed, for I am legion, I am everything. Tell me why, do you stare? am I not, beautiful to you? and tell me why, I should care, for you, when I am everything.
11.
Mercurio 03:53
Tragedy as the story goes, Juliet and her Romeo, love survives but nobody knows, the tragic tale of Mercurio. So sell your heart for a price you know, tell your momma that your coming home, love forgotten, love never missed, and nobody ever remembers this. Love so soft, love so kind, love to keep you warm inside, pretty flowers die in the dark, chased away by the morning lark. Love so tender, love so blind, love to twist you up inside, all you feel is a hole in your soul, fall in love, and feel it grow.
12.
Modern Noise 03:00
tell me what to believe in, give me a brand new soul, just a beautiful demon, making you lose control. this synthetic religion, this pathetic noise, this decrepit musician, playing the pretty boy. make the music macabre, think I just might cry, making you pull the trigger, making the school kids die. as the sirens are blaring, look who's pretty now, got this fake pain to spread, and you don't care how. modern noise is mind control, corrupt the kids with rock and roll, an evil that you'll never know, this is harmony. oh please think of the children, they might copy you, or they might learn to think, what are we to do? this aggressive position, this malicious voice, this progressive decision, they're the devils toys. haven't you read the bible? tells us music is bad, tried to find an opinion, but this is all they had. they're controlling our babies, don't you understand? bet you're one of those pagans, this should all be banned. modern noise is mind control, corrupt the kids with rock and roll, an evil that you'll never know, this is harmony.

Violent Ride 02:25
I hate what you have done to me, ripped out all of the good inside, remind me who I used to be, this monster doesn't need to hide. imagine all the things I'd do, if I could get my hands on you, and wrap my fingers round your neck, for one last violent ride. I love this fateful tragedy, the day you made the patient cry, don't think I'll show you sympathy, all angels simply have to die. imagine all the things I'd do, if I could get my hands on you, and wrap my fingers round your neck, for one last violent ride. I wanna teach you new things about pain, wanna show you what real fear is, I wanna hurt you in ways you can't imagine, get all your nerves giving me their full attention. I'm gonna break you and make you say you love me, part of me just wants to make you lie, I'm gonna give you some Stockholm syndrome, then cut you loose and watch you cry. 'cause baby I'm not nice, no I'm a little sick, and you make me want to prove it, and it won't be over quick, and when you think you're done, and you're begging me to die, I'll take all you've got left and drink your tears from your eyes.
14.
prayed I'd never see the day, find my salvation torn away, hoped that you would not decide, to lock me back inside my mind. turn the key to lock my cell, and send the devil back to hell, I'll cut my skin and stain this world, all these angels have to burn. no sympathy you'll find from me, when all is wrong and love is gone, I may not be a perfect creature, but at least I loved you more than you loved me. wear this silver round my neck, cling to the things that it reflects, in the shadows I will hide, and watch you love another. can't let go, I promised you, love you forever and I do, the only one that I adore, the only thing I had worth living for.
15.
Suffragette 03:33
little cross that hangs on the wall, you exist after an angel falls, are you in love when you think you're in love? Another dream you've been dreaming of. That deep emotion that you've always felt, not on the table with the cards you were dealt, my little suffragette, delicate innocent, you gave salvation to my discontent. you chase your fantasy and I'll be here, self defeating destiny, it's crystal clear, but I would die for you, there's nothing I won't do for you, but you still run and hide, you shake with fear. give me a chance and I'll defeat the night, no more full moon my passion burns it bright, my days are worthless now if I'm alone, I'll lay here helplessly till you come home. my little suffragette, delicate innocent, you gave salvation to my discontent. it's breaks my heart to know you hold my mind, it slips away slowly with passing time, I don't know what to do, I can't survive this without you, you broke the man who used to stand alone. this is my sacrament, all I have left is to lament, I hope you understand you made me fall. my little suffragette, delicate innocent, you gave salvation to my discontent. my days are worthless now if I'm alone, I'll lay here helplessly till you come home.

Necromantic 04:24
Members of my congregation, in these trying times the question must be asked: is god dead? if god is dead, then hope is dead, then faith is dead, then we are dead. if god is dead, then hope is dead, if faith is dead, then we are dead. flesh rots away, bleach your bones, breaks your youth and beauty. All alone in the end, in a pine wood box. I would trade this abyss for a chance to rise, and stand again. give me introspection, I'll give you a new reflection, something beautiful that you can put all of your dreams in, carve your flesh and make you feel like a whole new man. Necromantic.

Pure Decking 02:34
a line of cryptic data flashes by before my eyes, hunched over a terminal until the hard drive fries, capturing your files, I'm decrypting 1 by 1, I've got this bad monitor tan, but baby this is fun. you think you're safe, I know you're not, I'm watching what you do, pull up your task manager there's nothing new to you, kill the process, anti-virus, systems I'll be wrecking, command line's all I need for now 'cause I'm pure decking. cyberdeck. I'm pure decking. cyberdeck. I'm pure decking. I'm in your box, I'm god damn root, passwords unnecessary, proxy your junk to pass me on to targets so unwary, so kick and scream try to find me, I'm just a single file, throw it out a new one sprouts, ha, this could take a while. a techno-necromancer with a horde of zombie boxes, breaking through your privacy watching you try to stop this, check your settings, route a port, vital options I'm checking, 'cause I'm a cyber-criminal and I'm pure decking. cyberdeck. I'm pure decking. cyberdeck. I'm pure decking. cyberdeck. I'm pure decking. cyberdeck. I'm pure decking. Decking. Decking. I'm pure decking. Decking. cyberdeck.
