1. What Will Become?
we've cut in, cut out
the face of man
cut in, cut out
the face of...
time has given us no reason to live
look to the future and you will see nothing
what will become?
what will we be?
when we can see our own eternity
we've lost hope, lost fate
we've lost our way
lost time, lost grace
we search for...
man has taken time from all that you see
look in his eye, see the future hold nothing
what will become?
what will we be?
when we can see our own eternity
what will become?
what will we be?
when we can change our own eternity
man has taken time from all that you see
look in his eye and you still will not see
no! you will not see!
2. Damaged
consequences that had left me for dead
repercussions that went straight to your head
trusting in no one
believing in nothing
living in a world of pure deception
so far this life is contemptuous
this mind, a gun, so relentless
damn! i am damaged for life!
damn! like i've been crucified!
damn! i am damaged for life
and i can't believe i'm alive!
determined to destroy all that you know
conceal your lies in the web you compose
trusting in no one
believing in nothing
living in a world of pure deception
so far this life is contemptuous
this mind, a gun, so relentless
damn! i am damaged for life!
damn! like i've been crucified!
damn! i am damaged for life damn!
and i can't believe i'm alive!
3. Digimortal
one step!
as i witness the death of innocence
a predator feeding on its creation
through the fallout of this hallucination
i walked into darkness
must not surrender my god to anyone
or this body will become carrion
one step closer
one step closer to my fate
one step closer
one step closer to the grave
as i witness my own degeneration
the future condemns me
must not surrender my god to anyone
or this body will become carrion
one step closer
one step closer to my fate
one step closer
one step closer to the grave
one step closer...
4. No One
violence in my head
like a thorn that pierced my skin
spilling strength on the floor where i stand
it surrounds me, controls me
shows weakness inside me
they've tried to kill me
but they won't succeed!
no one
no one
no one can deny
sadness in my heart
like a storm that ripped apart
all the fragments of what was happiness
it takes over, and numbs me
shows the fear inside me
they've tried to kill me
but they won't succeed!
no one
no one
no one can deny
take one more shot at me
and believe!
takes over and numbs me
shows the fear inside me!
inside!
inside my head!
5. Linchpin
can't take me apart!
see the light, a new day has arrived for us
genesis of our evolution
a linchpin holds within a means to an end
can't you see that we are one?
can't take me apart!
no you can't!
we see no end to the dream
we will never see the end
we will never be the end
all my life i've felt discarded
never feeling a part of it
no you can't!
without me you will fade, you will not remain
we are one, and of the same future machine!
a linchpin holds within a means to an end
can't you see that we are one?
can't take me apart!
no you can't!
we see no end to the dream!
we will never see the end
we will never be the end
all my life i've felt discarded
never feeling a part of it
no you can't take me apart
you can't change me now
6. Invisible Wounds (Dark Bodies)
dark bodies floating in darkness
no sign of light ever given
imprisoned in a world without a memory
unconscious, or am i conscious?
cut from the heart i am part of
sometimes i feel as though i'm frozen in heaven
and i saw my own face in the dark and lonliness
and i saw my own face like a spark frozen in heaven
in dreams i see myself flying
closer to the sun, and i'm climbing
tried to touch the sun
but the brightness burned my eyes
unconscious, or am i conscious?
fell from the sky like a star
sometimes i feel as though i'm frozen in heaven
and i saw my own face in the dark and lonliness
and i saw my own face like a spark
dark
my life was so dark...
my mind was so dark...
everything was dark
unconscious, or am i conscious?
fell from the sky like a star
sometimes i feel as though i'm frozen in heaven
and i saw my own face in the dark and lonliness
and i saw my own face like a spark frozen in heaven
dark bodies floating in darkness...
7. Acres of Skin
walk through the ashes of man
skin like fields on fire
pain is only a weakness
death is just an escape
we are connected like tissue
feed on the shame you've raised
why continue the harvest?
we are already dead
no one can reap these scars we've sown
there is no morning sun
no falling rain
for acres of skin
wait! can you hear the machines?
gears that cultivate flesh
why continue the harvest?
we are already dead
no one can reap these scars we've sown
there is no morning sun
no falling rain
for acres of skin
all i want and wish for
is to end this suffering
all alone and unaware
all primed up for dying
without face, without mind
without dreams, without memory
8. Back the Fuck Up
from the wasteland
cold steel under my wasteband
hazardous times
enemy lines drawn in the middle the streets
the concrete's stained with blood
i still got to eat
when i hit the street i made the man understand
i fought with flesh and i bled like a man
i rode that edge of darkness my friend
stood up to the enemy so life could begin
you know you got to
back the fuck up
back up off of me
traces of ignorance
offense of hatred
the faces change in the same old places
dark nights and lost souls
collide to cross those
the line between a death and dream
i never wanted to lead your leash
to pull around your ton of grief
i'll come back with a fist of lead
to educate your mind with a blow to your head
you know you got to
back the fuck up
back up off of me
don't let the time pass waitin' for the answer
you are exposed to all of the danger!
you know you got to
back the fuck up
back up off of me
don't let the time pass waitin' for the answer
9. Byte Block
i'm nothing more
nothing less
than a single piece of flesh
nothing more
nothing less
than a worthless piece of flesh!
no, i have not forgot
what you said to me
this is reality, cast me away!
i've lost my mind
lost my faith
the machine made me the slave
lost my mind
lost my faith the machine made me the slave!
worthless
no, i have not forgot
what you said to me
this is reality
falling, fading...
traces of my soul
i have no more memory
no more past that i can see
devoid of that which defines me
devoid of all humanity
don't know how i got here
but i wish that i was dead!
no, i have not forgot
what you said to me
10. Hurt Conveyor
all that you have
and you really have nothing
to show for the life that's your own
suddenly you realize
that this world has no meaning
and you're left alone
i fall down into your own despair
i was lost, now i'm found
now what do you want from me?
i force my way inside your head
come to your senses
and this will repent us
and judge you for all that you are
comatose and you're oblivious
to the confession that proved you a liar
i fall down into your own despair
i was lost, now i'm found
now what do you want from me?
i force my way inside your head
not part of this world!
11. (Memory Imprints) Never End
after the smoke clears
and the flames subside
(we have been forsaken...)
a thousand eyes were upon me
soulless, and without mind
(we have been forsaken...)
will there never be an end?
if i could be forgiven
every breath would be a prayer
(we are not forgiven...)
will there never be an end?
i have tread, and spanned the horizon
i've seen this world, the beauty in decay
i strike down the faceless and unknown
i feel blessed, for i can see
the stars look down on me...
will there never be an end?
as the stars look down on me...
