Nine Lyrics

Album: Demo 3

captivating volunteered economic slavery

weary fingers worked to the bone

as another cog continues to turn within this bleeding machine

opening eyes to another's century-old dying dreams

the stark realization of the unforeseen

torching the mass produced hives emancipates the enslaved

but will the scrambled convalescing worker drones be too content to fly away

exchanging the precious grains within the hour glass

for crimson fist-fulls of pastel verdine masonic greed

hypnotized by the capitalistic brainwashed desires,

prosthetic needs, rheumatic deformities

breeding an apathetic world who's occupant's conspire

betrayals gravitating towards meaningless successsion along the corporate chairs

force-fed images of suburbia's fairy tales

complete with the flawlessly narcissistic supermodel inhabitants

the preprogrammed suicidal inclinations

join the looming feelings of social inadequacy

accompanying the bulemic casualties

insatiable members of an improbable utopian culture

bent on torturing themselves merely for the false promises of perfection

alleviate the symptoms, never the cause

perpetuate the systems of suppression

absinthely forget the prescribed pain with the dispensed nerve deadening medication

willing participants of the misery will smilingly share their suffering

as the robot sheds it's first tear from grievous calamity,

the blindofold will be washed away

and only when the marionette severs its knotted strings

will it be free to drag itself from the fireplace that we've called humanity.
