I See You In Ruins

Is this standard behaviour
Or just pure provocation
Now, it's all alienation
Now, endless stark ruminations
Saw you walk by the station
Those eyes offer temptation
Now, it's just pure fascination,
Now, It's all dark condemnation
This city breeds confrontations
Drains out all motivation
Now, it's all standard vocations
Now, everyone is so vacant
Now...
I see you, in ruins
I feel you. You're ruined.
I need you...

Lost the Plot

I'm not like you
I suffer with honour
You're so selfish, you're just like your father
You don't like me, I take that with valour
You've lost the plot, in your heart
I don't miss you
You gutless imposter
You're so focussed
Selfish and hostile
I'm so broken
It happened in Boston
You're so faceless
Self-centred poser
You've lost the plot, in your heart
Sun, fire, loss, panic in your eyes
Moon, gloom, lost in blue eyes
One mood, speaks, sparks in your life
Black, soul, dark coals, in your eyes

There is No Hope

Cull the herd, leave out the rest
Isolate, ignore the best
Non-systematic decay
Nature will not be your friend
There is no hope (There)
We're broken beyond repair
Constant threat of fear
There is no hope (Left)
Anya, you're making no sense
Don't vaccinate, too common sense
Anya, your child is not here
Your self-righteous views on display
There is no hope (There)
We're broken beyond repair
Constant threat of fear
There is no hope (Left)
There is No Hope (There)
There is no Hope (Left)
There is no hope
Strength in numbers
There is no hope
It's never too late to try

Regressing Times
05:15
|
|

Margaret Thatcher, Reagan lies
Russian puppets, Slovak signs
Scale the ladder, corporate best
Marry rich, contribute less
Crack the ground, frack profit lines
Heat the earth in record time
Build a wall, hear distant cries
Pray to God to rationalize
Protect oil, and globalize
Increase the profits, monetize
British Brexit, right-wing ties
A voter base cheers cowards lies
local crony, local hate
Tyranny and form a State
Tyranny on full display
These regressing times
These repressive lies
These aggressive times
These impressive lies
Victim blame (and) ignore the signs,
Online troll, a pantomime
Hunt a trophy, hunt a wife
Squash the left and weaponize
Steal their land, a treaty signed
Build a statue, build a mine
1000 natives (to) one white life
your privilege shows in record time
These regressing times
These repressive lies
These aggressive times
These impressive lies

Mirrors Tell All
04:40

Distant thoughts again, struggle to say kind words
You forgot the others, stick to your ideals
The dying art of manners, strike another deal
A dark descent, no honour, fraught with strife, ordeals
Now it’s all gone - we’ve lost our minds
Extinct in a short time - we've lost all time
Mirrors tell all - out of time, out-of-time
Isolate yourself - motivate yourself
Mirrors tell all - out of time, out-of-time
Now we’re lost again, (we) struggle to say five words
(The) loss of modern manners, praised with wide appeal
You ignore the obvious, choose your side, conceal
Slaughterhouse opinions, empathy’s all gone
Now it’s all gone - we’ve lost our minds
Extinct in a short time - we've lost all time
Mirrors tell all - out of time, out-of-time
Isolate yourself - motivate yourself - vindicate yourself - mobilize yourself
Mirrors tell all - out of time, out-of-time

No Minds
05:24

You fail to see the signs
You only see what's inside
Grim thoughts (spew) filth and swine
Opinions flow like spilled wine
Influx of thoughts unkind
We've lost the art to rewind
You won't accept hard times
Untie beliefs that bind
No minds, in time, no minds, change
We cannot change warped minds
They only see what's prescribed
Your actions fit the crimes
Strained ethics, profits climb
Self-centered, (a) bleak mankind
We only see what's in style
Stand back and tow the line
Doomsday militia times
No minds, in time, no minds, change
No minds

Modern Fascist

Time moves on
The States still thinks it’s Babylon
You claim i’m wrong
You state fake facts for everyone
Brainwashed droves
Chauvinistic Christians
One-by-one, kneel
One-by-one, yield
Lemmings act like lemmings
Follow your flock
One-by-one
Modern Fascist(s)
Corporate drones
Controlled by mass consumption
Right-wing scum
Support a cause that keeps you numb
Fox news Clones
Open carry Xenophobes
One-by-one, kneel
One-by-one, yield
Lemmings act like lemmings
Follow your flock
One-by-one
Modern Fascist(s)
Lead the Masses
Facts redacted
Psychopathic
Modern Fascists
Psychopathic
Tyrants clashing
(The) Truth redacted
Bleed the masses
Breed more fascists
Deceive classes
Sycophantic
Steal more masses
Feed the Tax-less
Modern Fascists

Trust Yourself

I want the discourse
Don’t want the ordinary
Overtly sensitive, no need to talk about it
All goals are monetary
Don’t need the commentary
Don’t act incendiary
The Lost art of modern manners (selfless)
Trust Yourself, instead
It really doesn't matter
Trust Yourself, instead
It’s not medicinal, it’s an addiction
(No) accountability
(The) lost art of patience
Conformist dignitary
No modern recourse
Witch trials contemporary
You’re fucking ordinary
Trust Yourself, instead
It really doesn't matter
Trust Yourself, instead
Adia, check yourself
