I sit here thinking back on cigarettes and honey jack and my failed attack on our machine to cope with the apathy can't you see it's killing me the copulating rotting caress of the american dream I hope it don't come to own me won't somebody show me Where I'm going Would I rather build a picket fence or a picket line Protest the offences or keep going on fine war torn country why the hell should I care? If its not here someone else is dying somewhere I hope it don't come to own me won't somebody show me Where I'm going

Sequestering sycophants and selling their souls brain washing marauding and stirring the coals the old has just rendered a hole in the new taken it all for the new lucky few his eyes are all glassy as he steps to the street raping and killing his family will eat he knows it is wrong but keeps moving along others misfortune helps him sing his song He laughs in the faces of the broken and bruised although in his heart he knows he's misused a screw on a cog bolts inside a machine laundering lifetime the money is clean the demon inside him urges him on he wages a war but all his strength is gone he searches for hope but he finds nothing there he steps off the stool and falls into thin air this is my story it is your song it's written by no one the words are all wrong my soul is a cesspool but no one can tell that if this is life then i sure welcome hell.

Cut the Tie 02:58
every time i see your face it makes me want to die every time i hear your laugh i hang my head and cry it's been so long since i been gone this love that i have lost since the day you walked away and turned right into frost but i know it''s been a long time since you and i first cut our ties my tattered hearts been torn apart by those i cannot stand i'm a martyr in the matrix i've been banished from the land like the one inside the theater whose heart it has been shot slowly sink into the sand the one's that been forgot i'm a cog inside an iron lung whose gears they have been jammed feeding fingers to a starving dog right from the masters hand i'm nothing but a little boy that's got a broken heart its not new it's something that we new right from the fucking start and my eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the lord he hath loosed the fateful lightning of his terrible swift sword in the darkness of his heavens with his minions may they rot it's a sinister solution to the one i should have fought

we're the murders of the machine thee doomed dinosaurs of iron they choke out all of our dreams leaving nightmares for us to lead Plastic plague when you wake to a shrouded brown sky with mushroom clouds and toxic smoke in your eyes it is terrifying we dispise Plastic plague why do the powers at be always Bogart all the free and clean energy they trade it for coal and dead dinosaurs and deaf ears to fall on our pleas. sterilize genocide sanitize ignite God damn their eyes
