Eviction Article
Now you've thrown your past agreements
Into the fire
And your government's become a whore
For outside interests
That now enslave the poor
Their suffering now stands ignored
Pushed out
Spat on
Turn jobs into weapons
To make a profit
Out of blood, sweat and lies
Free trade sounds easy
And so damned harmless
Until they're exploited by blind eyes
Chewed through
Spat out
The evil that you feed improves economy
For the rich that run your campaign
Increase the bottom line, your role again defined
Out with the old and in with the same
Time to unmask the devil
Divide and conquer
Kill off and prosper
Recite the game that you've been sold
Manifest destiny, your life atrocities
Responsibility annulled
Pushed out
Enslaved
The evil that you feed improves economy
for the rich that run your campaign
Increase the bottom line, your role again defined,
out with the old and in with the same
When will their wants meet our needs,
when will their words match their deeds
When will the time come to stand
to take it back from their hands
When will their wants meet our needs,
when will their words match their deeds
When will the time come to stand
to take it back
The blood is on your hands, life stealing motherfuckers
The constitution burns to ash in front of you
The people know what you are up to
Your sins will come back on you
The evil that you feed improves economy
For the rich that run your campaign
Increase the bottom line, your role again defined,
Out with the old and in with the same
Last Year's Nest
Discontent
In this life as is
Our mechanisms deviate
Rust debrided
Inspires change
And leaves behind exhausted dreams
Ignition engaged
So save your wishes for the sky
Diluted and disguised
As a perfect fuel that won't ignite
But hope will heal us all
Set to action
Our forward thought
To allocate and stabilize
The truth for so long
Can only hide
In shadows of our own design
Amend and revise
So save your wishes for the sky
Diluted and disguised
As a perfect fuel that won't ignite
But hope will heal us all
A wish will leave you empty handed
(Hope will provide)
Shun your responsibilities
(And lead an empty life)
A dream alone will bear no seed
(Hope is alive)
And wishes will leave you
Dead and buried
Lost and forgotten
With your lives
So save your wishes for the sky
Diluted and disguised
As a perfect fuel that won't ignite
But hope will heal us all
Full Color Guilt
Ideals of beauty set to color
In savvy death camp chic
The runways turn to gauntlets of disgrace and sickness
For your spectacle your piece
Freeze - her hollow eyes now give you anything
Dead - she never saw it coming anyway
Acceptance is the starving girl that you created
Bleeding your disease
For images of tragedy that you take pride in
To make her feel ashamed
Freeze - her hollow eyes now give you anything
Dead - she never saw it coming anyway
Articles will not redeem
The dead now lying at your feet
You know she doesn't matter
So don't act so coy
She's starving for you
Did you even notice what you took
Freeze - her hollow eyes now give you anything
Dead - she never saw it coming anyway
Bathory's Sainthood
Do you feel alive now
Now that you own the dead
Preying on the corpses
Their hearts no longer fed
Your sainthood is obvious on every starving face
Your deception gives us
A way to separate
The poor from the hate
The rich from the stone
Genuflect away the sins that we've known
Sure one percent rules, but heaven's made of gold
Chalk it up to folly and consequences alone
Do we really want do we really need
A bastard messiah
Wrapped up in the dream of patriotic clean
White washed desire
And every time the real war's defined
The trenches are filled to hide battle lines
Torches to bridges and bridges to torture
Headlines distort what we see as our borders
What gives us the right to feel with remorse
For a god they created
A god for the poor
Do we really want do we really need
A bastard messiah
Wrapped up in the dream of patriotic clean
White washed desire
For bathory
We're bleeding out
The devil hides in angelic shrouds
Blasphemy
As speaking out
We've asked for it
For more of the same sad scheme
Of ghettos created by the power elite
For our minds and souls
Burning no longer for freedom invoked
More of the same
Do we really want do we really need
Bastard messiahs
Wrapped up in the dream of patriotic clean
White washed desire
Your sainthood is obvious on every starving face
Your deception's given us a way to separate
Do you feel alive now
Now that you own the dead
More of the same ...
Dying On Principle
Legislate forget the facts of your drug war casualty
So many dead but you wear your morals on your sleeve for all to see
And the billboards lie - denial thrives -
Which is the crime and which is the lie
And who defines it
Policing the oppressed
While the real pushers run frantic with their poisons
Corporate sponsors will see to it that the right product kills us off
And the billboards lie - denial thrives -
Which is the crime and which is the lie
And who defines it
Infection will thrive
Despite poor intentions
Supplying the lesser class with their own crucifixion
Martyrs for your statistics
And every death is on your hands
Designed to stain diseased and bled
And the billboards lie - denial thrives -
Which is the crime and which is the lie
And who defines it
And the billboards lie - denial thrives -
Which is the crime and which is the lie
And who defines it
Handful Of Redemption
The sick and tired refrain of everyday is branding itself into you
Discouragement defined by all the times when everything just falls apart
And your skeletons have broken down the door and left you there for dead
How do we find a little piece of heaven
In our time before we find acceptance
When no one understands at this point
That a handful of redemption's all we need
From remorse to rebirth finding it hard to think that this is really true
Ask how long should we wait before we take instead of waiting to be free
And all, all the fear all the anger falls away
All the days that were wasted cut and pasted fall away
Never walked so tall until that moment when fate and circumstance collide
When all it takes is a step that you never saw and burdens fall away
Release The Dogs
In a moment of weakness they've gone for the throat
Prayers answered for the ruling classes, and we swallowed them whole
Heads down and hands up our need for safety has been hijacked again
They've got their fingers on the pulse of our mourning with knives poised
Decide- right now -which side you're on, invest our freedom in failure by design
Hands tied with pleasure now we're choking on their cum
Guided deception allegiance to a goal
That never mattered until they told us so
Blowback has blown back into our face and ignited a war
On home turf between control and our free will lines are drawn
Release the dogs, they've picked up the scent, moving in for the kill
Unchained and hungry teeth ready to feast
Release the dogs
Foundations To Burn
Justify, as if it were our right to say
Now decide, which liar you trust and which one chose our fate
Fed in time as a choice we think we're making
It's the guns that we know vs. the guns we never will
When illusions burn where will we be left standing
Still with the guns that we know vs. the guns we never will
Pacify, with false hope of safety within
Never mind that they were never there where could we begin
We call upon god for which killing's permitted,
and then brag out loud that our side made the grade
We better pray, with this as our position
Our wrongs don't come back and burn us down to the ground
And what gives us the right to judge without reprisal
To strike retaliation and wash our hands of blood
And who gave us the crown to claim that we're divine
Without needing repentance and drive them into hell
Management Vs. Labor
Sacrifice, did it really mean that much to them
As it was killing you
They've locked you out after all that you have done for them
You toil yet they profit more
Save yourself today in tearing down the design that they built with our hands
Save yourself today in tearing down the design that they built with our hands
Struggle by to feed your kids while theirs grow fat, privileged and disdained
They've bled you dry
Until all that's left of you is sold to build their paradise
Save yourself today in tearing down the design that they built with our hands
Save yourself today in tearing down the design that they built with our hands
What have we worked for we've been scraping by for all our lives
Only to find that we're left behind
We'll own our own time and give you nothing in return
Our next meal will come from your table
Save yourself today in tearing down the design that they built with our hands
Save yourself today in tearing down the design that they built with our hands
So our lives can become something more
Than what you buy and sell
America will be reborn
High Wire Escape Artist
Bleed out all empathy this vessel has no spirit left to hold on to lies I've lived in full
How long can I hold tight with every movement
Tension binds and denies my true nature
The Balance has shifted warped sick and twisted
Grabbing at angels when I fall
Because I am more than this idol endless recital
For all my demons to applaud
I am free
Hide myself from it all while every fear is
Screaming night into dawn until I find
I have to believe them (lies)
In order to attain fulfillment
I have to succumb to (lies)
All my inner fears that tear at me
I will never believe them (lies)
I'm sick of the weakness that controls me - Now that Iüve fallen - I will not repent
White Wedding Dress
Every day she fears her life will end
Every time the call rings they are late
They never come quite in time to see his fist
Leave its mark on the side of her disgrace
They'll never charge him anyway and you know it
Say we can't get involved today
So where's the choice and who protects her now
Bruised and battered the blood has stained her gown
Useless screams for help can't save her now
Choices rendered the house is burning down
No one will ever understand cause they don't have to feel his crushing hands
And the ears that ignored her screams before are now wondering what she did it for
But with a bottle of kerosene she found her freedom
And then burned the bastard to the ground and ran
The fire will now wash away the blood on her white wedding dress
On In Five
Force-fed on a hunger strike, tag them dead before you focus in,
spoon feed the impact that you leave us with
Bring denial with a worldwide expansion team brand so deep into our minds
That it soon becomes our history and image that's been marketed well
On the assembly line of our lives, shut it down before it ever starts
Turn on to the weakness we've been raised upon (we'll turn you off again)
You've written up all the answers we've followed them word for word
Disguised as our own subconscious defining our wrongs and rights
No more working on the strings you've made us
Drive the stake into your hardened hearts we're done begging for the scrapes
You throw us we'll take the truth and our lives
Investigate and drain us we've found you out regaining
All the knowledge that you hid, you are no longer needed we'll keep our own hearts beating
Against the pulse that you denied
Demand it back our lives our minds you stole them,
nothing else will quench the hunger that will turn you off
And certify that we are free to find our own truth without you
This is not a test. This is not a test. Yes it has come to this. This is not a test
