The government creates the laws A set of rules they use to keep you docile They put all their trust in God Just a tool they use to keep you feudal We are living the dream Bought in the land of the sheep Gunshots, Blood loss You can’t justify this holocaust There’s no loss, For big boss Democracy at all costs Talking heads always at odds Bombarded senses meant to keep you tribal Spending billions dropping bombs Your loyalty won’t guarantee survival We are living the dream Bought in the land of the sheep Gunshots, Blood loss You can’t justify this holocaust There’s no loss, For big boss Democracy at all costs

Nosebleed 02:22
Surround yourself with people who have nowhere else to go Keep yourself distracted ‘cause you’re scared to be alone Swimming in your poison growing toxic through the years The party’s never over when you house all the beer You’re falling on yourself again (No sleep! nose bleed!) Hanging on to your fairweather friends (No friends! Dead end!) Line up all your problems and chances that you’ve blown The hook is in and pulling down on everyone you known Drown out all the noise that’s ringing in your ears The party’s never over until you disappear You’re falling on yourself again (No sleep! nose bleed!) Hanging on to your fairweather friends (No friends! Dead end!) You’re falling on yourself again (No sleep! nose bleed!) Hanging on to your fairweather friends (No friends! Dead end!) (No sleep! nose bleed!) (No end! Dead friends!)

Still Paying 01:49
Got a compulsion for overconsumption Maxed out cards satiate my kink for indulgence I show off it in a decadent display Breaking the bank just to throw it away And I’m still paying And I’m still paying And I’m still paying And I’m still paying Addicted to bottles and luxury models I’m on the decline about to hit bottom I show off it in a decadent display Breaking the bank just to throw it away And I’m still paying And I’m still paying And I’m still paying And I’m still paying Yeah, you know Mötley Crüe And I’m still paying And I’m still paying And I’m still paying And I’m still paying

The Machine 02:47
They hear us talking from our pockets Better watch what you say They conspire through the wire My brain is starting to fray Analyze, identify, populate the array They’ll take our voices and destroy us The only choice is obey They’re watching you from behind the screen A billion eyes see everything Data mined while you sleep New algorithmic reality The singularity is now complete Feed yourself to the machine They hide in plain sight, even inside Steal the thoughts that we stream Assemble sound bytes, gather insight To reprogram our dreams Mastermind, by design realign our beliefs You’re either with them or against them And there’s no in between They’re tracking you from behind the scenes The fine print that we didn’t read Data mined while you sleep New algorithmic reality The singularity is now complete Feed yourself to the machine Data mined while you sleep New algorithmic reality The singularity is now complete Feed yourself to the machine

The Fringe 02:57
Stuck in a loop, I can’t break the cycle Every day’s the same, it just won’t change When everything’s the same, nothing’s the same And I can feel it in my brain, it feels like I’m going insane Can’t contain the tendencies, they’re growing inside of me Telling me to end it all, the voices want it violently Controlling and poisoning, I can’t even disagree Feeling incomplete, don’t know what to believe When I’m on the fringe When I’m on the fringe Withdrawn, stuck at home Depressed, so alone Broken walls, broken bones God, it’s a tight rope walk When you’re on the… The hours go by, it feels like we’re in a loop Feels like the only way it’ll stop is to end it all Sometimes it just doesn’t change, the pain doesn’t go away It’s inexplicable, I can’t- If you- You wouldn’t understand If i tried to explain It’s not- It’s not in one spot, it's everywhere They keep telling me to- They keep telling me it’s happening Can’t contain the tendencies, they’re growing inside of me Telling me to end it all, the voices want it violently Controlling and poisoning, I can’t even disagree Feeling incomplete, don’t know what to believe When I’m on the fringe When I’m on the fringe Trapped inside, don’t feel alive Wake up just to survive Suicide? I can’t decide God, it’s a tight rope walk When you're on the… Fringe When you’re on the fringe When you’re on the fringe When you’re on the fringe Trapped inside, don’t feel alive Wake up just to survive, Suicide? I can’t decide God, it’s a tight rope walk When you’re on the…

Xenozealot 01:30
You fear the people around you Can’t stand their so-called values More people should think like you do Assimilate to your worldview You don’t mind being lied to Take pride in dawning the jackboot Outrage that’s brewing inside you Gives way to hate that defines you Xenophobic zealot! Politicians talking in circles World leaders lying like dogs Alternative facts that blind you Your morals are an afterthought Xenophobic zealot! Xenophobic zealot!
