Leng Tch'e - Marasmus lyrics



Tracks



01. Lucid Denial

We take the hand of ignorance in vain
We see atrocities but we don't complain
Self-complacency
Supremacy or negativity?
Do you believe everything you see?
Fighting the atrocities of greed
Do you believe everything you hear?
The echo's of the casualties
Miry deceptions of the gazing intellect
Miry deceptions - what intellect?
Force-fed along the good Samaritans hand
Crestfallen by the humaneness
There to embrace dishonesty
Blurred vision of the war machine
We take the hand of ignorance in vain
We see atrocities but we don't complain
Self-complacency
Supremacy or negativity?

02. 1-800-Apathy

Disrupted signal wrong receiver
Feeding lies to the non-believers
Lying in wait to bite the hand that feeds
A traced call of messages, led to believe
Covered up in deadly silence
Now merely a misprinted fact
Setup scene
Defend with passive attacks
The truth as is will stab you in the back
Drunk on power tools, high on a mediocre excuse
It's a just excuse under the pretext of "human error"
The compulsive adoration of self-justified terror
Pledge your allegiance to a world divide
Diplomatically immune,
Floating high above the law
Drunk on power tools
Democracy stands as tyranny of the majority
An ancient farce that still stands
Money talks, silence is golden and shrewd
Rescheduled, postponed, another life is screwed
Procedure flaws, condoned but rejected
Case closed, no one told, no one knows
Another emergency on hold
Sorry, wrong diagnosis
Just get a life and wait in line
And don't try to die in the meantime
Disrupted signal, wrong receiver
Feeding lies to the non-believers
Lying in wait to bite the hand that feeds
A traced call of messages, led to believe
Covered up in deadly silence
Now merely a misprinted fact
For the good For he bad For the worse
Identities erased
They cross another border
Reasonable doubt without a fall guy
For the good For the bad For the worse
For the true For the fake For the mould
Identities erased
They cross another border
Reasonable doubt without a fall guy
It is all pointless
Defend with passive attacks
The truth as is will stab you in the back
Is it all pointless?

03. Tightrope Propaganda

Manifold the bitterness
Resemblance
Just a different time
Restrictive policies
Against a unity
This is reality
We turn the other cheek
Once we were ostracized
By the dehumanized
You put your faith in Christ
About the time we realize
The thread never left
The herd is breeding,
Like they did some decades ago
Re-grouped by the internet
Proclaimed as the Nazi's foretold
The herd is breeding
Like they did some decades ago
Imprudence, where we have been warned
Restrictive policies
Against a unity
This is reality
We turn the other cheek

04. Nonsense Status

Multiple shots fired the lack of control
For now we are the haunted in our own environment
The breed of hate - I clench my teeth
For we create - our own beings
Cause all by our feeble minds
We blame TV - for our own failure
We blame religion - children with machine guns
Or are you from an ancient world?
In which thy shall not see?
The bullet locked in the chamber ready to be released
Soon the prey will be the hunted and like you and me
Just another fact today, people died: some kid in rage
It's about that time when you come of your high chair and face today
Because today they make you believe, that today is make-believe
Realize it now

05. Tainted Righteousness

Their trivial trials
Making us fight for their wars
In the name of some system
Dictatorship
Adorn
Disconnecting - our free thought minds
Dividing - what could be unity
Because they know
That's where our power lies
All they touch - wasted
Taint our righteousness
Our reason and freedom to believe in what is real
Tainted righteousness
Break the grip that we try to hold on our lives
Taint our righteousness
Creating holes that never can be filled
Tainted righteousness
Once we are down and our knees
They'll fire at will
Disconnecting our free thought minds
Dividing - what could be unity
Because they know
That's where our power lies
That's all they know
Drug the ones who see through what they've instilled
