1. Inner Station
The time for truth is now gone
Hallow words compose a shallow narrative
We abrogated our sence of wit and intellect
to an instinct low, utterly savage and loathsome
We have finally come. And we have come clean with what we want of you.
This moment of time is ours and we have come clean with what we want.
And now that we are here, you have our ideals to call your own.
This moment in time is ours and we have come clean with what you will be.
''''You do not speak to him. You listen to him... The man...he''s enlarged my mind... He can be terrible, he can be
terrible, and he can be mean and he can be right. He''s fighting the war. He''s a great man... You dont judge him like
an ordinary man. Civilization only comes through him. And his security only comes through you.''''
There was never an intent to exit
and there is not now
There was never an intent to exit
and there wont be soon
There was never an intent to exit
and there will be none
There was never an intent to exit
Iraq of America
(There is nothing. There is no hope.)
Wake up. Open your eyes.
A stake in the cradle of civilization
at the expense of civilization itself.
An objective for decades finally achieved.
Two hundred years of progress back to the savage mind
2. Cardiff Giant
Tune in. Shut off the brain
Tie it on. The brain tourniquet
Tune in. Take it on
Shut down. The vital flow to the brain
Tune it. Shut it down
Transmit one channel at a time
The more we watch the less we know
Prime time tourniquet around your head
There is nothing. I despise like the stench of lies
There is nothing. I despise more then the stench of lies
It is the power of story that moves the world
The power of perception that defines the world
I have a feeling that what you're feeding me is not quite right
I decline to buy into the official state line
The more we fear, the less we ask
The more we watch, the less we know
But it still pulls in 24-7
A conduit plugged straight into our minds
And we all know
But we won't learn
The greatest hoax has always been our will to outwit ourselves
No, we won't learn
We proudly stand united in our will to submit
(We're as good as dead)
The war for minds begins here at home
(We're as good as dead)
We are as good as dead
3. F-Unit
Bolted shut by glottonous lies
No one gets out of here alive
This time it's for real. Nightmares come real
No one can explain how we came out this way
Every other analyst points a new finger of blame
But the truth can't be disguised
Is we're left to run for our lives
This time it's for real. Nightmares come real
The tue enemies within
Are the shameless money changers
That sold us out on a whim
Now here we are ready to starve
A can-do nation destroyed by speculation
Mindless incompetence at full saturation
Stone cold savages
Ravage the Main Street plains
Deregulate from the right
Accommodate from the left
Ideology squeezed out our kast breath
We let ourselves be let down, sold out
Sold down the river once again
By shameless greed and empty rhetoric
Bankrupt through and through
Passed down to me and you
No allegiance
Time to take them all down
Bail out your souls
Account for what you have done
We're lost all faith in all of you
You let us down
4. A Party To The Unsound Method
The blind leads the blind to the edge
I don't know if I'm animal or a god
But we are both
And in our world of codes
We choose what values we will unhold
We draw the lines between the judge and the judged
When in fact we are both
In a world of degrees where lies vanity?
How ironic it is, this privilege
The blind leading the blind through a field of mines
"In this world there are those who will take your heart
In this world there are those who will take
All that you've got
They are the predators
And they must be dealt with on our terms"
"In this world are two:
The quick and the dead"
"We will not lie down
We will not be silent
We will not be party to understanding
We will execute justice with precision"
Perfect
Genuine
Complete
Crystalline
Pure
(Oh so pure)
After so much time, are we any closer?
Can we begin to understand?
Do weeven ask, are we alone in this world?
Don't tell me that we're alone
Don't tell me we have to figure this out on our own
If we are all guilty of something
We among us is guilty of anything?
To judge is to be god
But to forgot judgement
To accept the unacceptable
No, we carry out our own justice everyday
Free from the opinions of others and even from ourselves
We each act alone in this world, to find the light
Without judgment, without judgment
There are two of you, don't you see
One that loves and one that kills
Sometimes I'm overwhelmed
By the compassion I feel inside
And sometimes I cannot hide the contempt I feel inside
And so it goes...
And you will find these words meaningless
When you get back to the world
You will burn everything
5. There Will Be Blood
You think you can take a crack at my soul
But there is no weakness where there is faith
And no patience for those who prey upon the weak
Suffer the underserved
Defeated the unaware
Protected the selfless
Victorious the vigilant
You want to see pissed off?
I'll show you pissed off like you've never seen
There will be blood before it is done. Blood
There will be blood
Suffer the underserved
Defeated the unaware
Protected the slefless
Victorious the vigilant
You don't go to war sitting down
And you don't fight with your eyes closed
You want to do this but you will
Go down in flames
So god help me there will be blood before I am done
I came across something
Something cold and dark
I did not know it by name
But I did feel the cold
A shadow in the dark
A presence real as life
A strike across the arm
With the intent to harm
I found a faith I never knew
I am forever changed
It is written there will be blood before it is donw
6. Goliath
They said we came across the earth
To give a better way of life
To show them far and near our greatness
But the unknown, ignored factor is the great darkness
In which they are kings
Unchallenged egos
What fools we were to think we could
Set them free from their world
Machines consumed by their jungle
Our technology consumed by the past
Our future very clearly outmatched
Yeah, they laughed as the heavens fell from the sky
Now what is that you say you've got?
Some kind of ability for what?
You people sleep
You know nothing
No one paid any attention until two towers fell
They've come around. They've come alive
Fear once loathed, now condoned
Fear sold and you all your souls
Fear bought and sold. Fear sold you the hope of war
Fear took your soul. Now darkness consumes your soul
Fear unearthed from below. Fear is a man of it's word
Run while you still can
Run
Or stay and die
They say freedom don't come free
Well, no shit
They say the apocalypse will come like a breeze
And maybe this is it
So come on, just tell me them to "bring it on", pretty boy
And let's get on with it
7. Rust Future Primitive
So for up the river
So deep in the jungle
So last, beyond rescue
You reside in a place from which you cannot escape
So last beyond rescue
Your spirit, your soul put on hold
Contempt for life fills the new void
So last beyond rescue
So far along you cannot recall
The night the wolves claimed you
They came under the cover of night
Cloaked in good intentions
That in time turned to dust
When the primordial urge becomes the guiding logic
Humanity turns to rust
We cannot turn and run away
We cannot change what is the nature of our ways
Despite the lofty things we say
It is ourselves we praise
The higher we strife, the deeper we dig our grave
Pride cometh before the fall
And as principles are pushed out the door
Values we choose after we decide what we want to justify
We cannot turn and run away
We cannot change what is the nature of our ways
Despite the lofty things we say
It is ourselves we praise
The higher we strife, the deeper we dig our grave
We do not wish to turn away
We reject change. It is the nature of our ways
Despite the lofty things we say
It is ourselves we praise
Trying to be god, we long ago last out way
My god, what have we done
Or is this your will done?
Power emerges a shadow of the soul
To roam the earth in serach of itself
We do not wish to turn away
We reject change. It is the nature of our ways
Despite the lofty things we say
It is ourselves we praise
Trying to be god, we long ago last out way
As the human mind escapes the sane
We run away. Pretend we cannot stand the sight of pain
But we cannot look away
The appeal of horror is too great
And we have ourselves to blame
We have ourselves to blame
8. Beacon
Our identity, once so profound
Now beyond recognition
The beacon of the world
Reduced to a faint pulse in the dark
Our salvation would require a self-examination
We can't give it up
We're far too gone
Our identity defined by what we buy
Consumer culture
We won't give it up
Won't even try
Our life's blood will run dry
It is burning to the ground in frant of our very eyes
And if you think the next empire will remember well of us
Than you've got a more to learn
If you thought it could never happen
Just look around
If you thought it could never happen
Open your eyes
Debtor empire
We'll change nothing
Forsake ourselves
In our own blood
9. The Great American Dream Machine
It... dies... and so it goes
We went and we tried
They walked away
All our glory and ideals rejected whole
What is it worth
To us for you to change?
What is the cost
Just your identity
This maybe the last time
We come up this far
So you should partake
Of what we hold
Our grand machine
Reduced to earth
Our grand machine
Reduced to dust
Both men went their separate ways
And never looked back
Our grand machine
Reduced to dust
It... dies... once again
10. The Wolves Are Running
This is the time to move
A creeping sense of suspicion but little to prove
A sense of distrust
A heart of darkness is imposing itself on us
This time I'm scared
Of what is near
This time we're scared
Of what may be near
Yeah, I can smell something in the air
I can see the red glow of their eyes
They say it can't happen here
But as the jungle swallows us
Morality becomes less clear
This time I'm scared
Of what is near
This time we're scared
Of what may be here
When the wolves run, we won't even see them come
When the wolves come, we will be overrun
When the wolves run, we won't even see them come
When the wolves come, we will be overrun
Again and again
Is history repeating again?
Again and again
A cycle that will not end
When the wolves run, we won't even see them come
When the wolves come, we will be overrun
It sure as hell can happen here
If vigilance is oushed aside with fear
I leave you with this one thought
And that is that they will come as you sleep
And if you see them running at you
Fight till the death
