This very day you'll take a last breathe and leave me
I've scrubbed myself 'til bleed I cannot make the tiniest mistake, 'cos you'll stab me You turn lambs to murderers What? Who shut the light? My halo used to shine all bright! But now... I've dug out myself in search of worms way deep inside What now? Clean, I can never be Perfection I hunt but will never catch Hypochondria, I make a monster of myself because of forbidden fruit What? Who shut the light? My halo used to shine all bright! But now... I've dug out myself in search of worms way deep inside What now? My halo used to shine 02. Bedtime Prayers
It seems like no one sees the oblivious
It seems like no one cares to try to understand A map and some sense is all you need to get the bloody picture clear They breed their traditions, passing their God on to the new blood, wide open for reception It seems like no one sees the oblivious It seems like no one cares to try to understand Look; we've got the pagans in south - feeding their gods Jesus disciples in our TV - needing their god We breed the beliefs Again and again we breed beliefs Still the picture ain't bloody clear The bombs are since birth attached to out bodies for infidels, all ready for destruction Look; we've got the pagans in south - feeding their gods Jesus disciples in our TV - needing their god We breed the beliefs The bedtime prayer continues A well meaning mother continues Look; we've got the pagans in south 03. Once Bitten, Twice Shy
I will witness it collapse
So it does, just thanks to us Our many words, not done just heard We leave this world I feel so ashamed that we're to blame Obvious lie as we all die; once bitten, twice shy What will make you understand? Holding death in your hand? You've got a sign in your fucking forehead; slow down or be dead! But hey, leave it our kids, let's sleep instead And when you've come to realize it's way too late God dammit you HAVE realized and it's way too late Once bitten, twice shy? Then how come we all die? Await the better days, don't pull your weight I'll laugh when you admit defeat I feel the taste, we're laid to waste Will you stand the heat? No one's perfect, no one's even bloody close My brain's my body's defect, programmed to lose And when you've come to realize it's way too late God dammit you HAVE realized and it's way too late! Await the better days, don't pull your weight I'll laugh when you admit defeat I feel the taste, we're laid to waste Will you stand the heat? Once bitten, twice shy? What will make you understand? Holding death in your hand? Await the better days, don't pull your weight I'll laugh when you admit defeat I feel the taste, we're laid to waste Will you stand the heat? 04. Need
It's broken again, it's broken again
Always the same as no one gains when everything is perfect It's all manufactured with a defect And since they can live on us we live through them Yes we live through them They're making us needing them in a physical way They're making us needing them in a mental way Now rebellion ain't no longer old Che's face on children's clothes Make us never stop needing more Make us never feel self-assured, 'cos we ain't for sure And since they can live on us we live through them I am perfect when naked and unleashed They're making us needing them in a physical way They're making us needing them in a mental way Fuck that bloody idea Take a culture and sell it expensive It's all so calculated, it's all so calculated With perfection it gets so complicated It's broken again, it's broken again! Always the same as no one gains And since they can live on us we live through them Yes we live through them They're making us needing them in a physical way They're making us needing them in a mental way 05. Revelation, Now!
Would it be such a shock if you showed your beloved face?
Put an end to all doubt, 'cos you can't fucking judge me I never meant any harm You are God, capital G If you read all my thoughts then you know why I don't believe Why wouldn't you let me in? Point your finger at this, point your finger at that Just clear up all the mess and set the record straight Revelation, now! Come out wherever you are A mother in grief, cancer ate her daughter Give me ONE reason why, justify the slaughter They were dragging the lake Young girl in black bag Where is your helping hand? Now you know why we don't believe But for the girls we must believe Revelation, now! Come out wherever you are Come out! 06. 21st Century Holocaust
Hatred awakes from many years of sleep
We need a scapegoat again I laugh out loud 'cos I don't know what's worse; cheap movie speeches or those who believe in them We move towards the 21st century holocaust We fear no war 'cos we haven't learned a thing You dumb fucks! The shit from out mouths suddenly makes sense We believe our own lies It's so, so much easier to hate than to listen and try to understand We move towards the 21st century holocaust We fear no war 'cos we haven't learned a thing You dumb fucks! 07. Aarons Sons
The perfect God makes perfect laws to fit his perfect creation; the man
Apparently not He died for your sins, he died so you may sin Murder ends with murder end with murder Reputation's like a mirror blinding you We all know the sum of the whispering game; a twisted message Trust in Him and you may kill He'll kiss you as blood is spilled Burnt Leviticus with his sinful deeds He must be no more Aaron's sons Nadab and Abihu took their cencers, put fire in them and added incense; and they offered unauthorized fire before the Lord, contrary to his command. So fire came out from the presence of God and consumed them, and they died before the Lord Trust in Him and you may kill He'll kiss you as blood is spilled Burnt Leviticus with his sinful deeds He must be no more Face the sinner you justify Another servant of Satan, of course he died Which God regrets? Not the perfect one Reputation's like a mirror blinding you We all know the sum of the whispering game; a twisted message Trust in Him and you may kill He'll kiss you as blood is spilled Burnt Leviticus with his sinful deeds He must be no more 08. In Here
Cut me out from the belly, first light dazzling me
Gave me a name followed by a number In here we cannot run away In here we are meant to stay In here, until we fade away In here we are held back Borders everywhere, musts everywhere I don't know where I want to go, but I won't stay here Late racists drew these lines Locked up by your name in modern time I eat, I sleep, I guard what's mine What they call freedom I cannot find Forced to complete in this bloody game It's fucked how we don't complain I cannot live with the end when I can't play In here we cannot run away In here we are meant to stay In here until we fade away In here we are fucked What's the price of the sun? When you own it you?ll charge us all What's the price of this earth? Since you own it you charge us all for living, for breathing... I can no longer breathe in here Late racists drew these lines Locked up by your name in modern time I eat, I sleep, I guard what's mine What they call freedom I cannot find 09. Heart
Are you there, dear old friend? I really miss you
'Cos I can't feel your beats unless my hand's on my chest Guidance, please! Now don't you shut down again Your guidance ceased and I fell down, I still don't stand Dear old friend where have you gone? Now I can't feel at all what's right or wrong I made wrong moves, a dog rose in bloom later withered Then the shock, that shakes me still, came almost fatal Guidance, please! Now don't you shut down again Your guidance ceased and I fell down, I still don't stand Dear old friend where have you gone? Now I can't feel at all what's right or wrong Don't you leave me here alone! Dear old friend where have you gone? Now I can't feel at all what's right or wrong |
