HELLSHOCK LYRICS
"World Darkness" (2005 Single)
1. Wax Statues
2. Grey City
1. Wax Statues
I hope this culture that we make won't be forgotten
You have to know where you went wrong
or is that thought pre-ordained
An individual is just one who follows the rules
Your soul bought off the rack
Who controls what you'll be today
A new commercial tomorrow
Frozen in place like wax statues
With all that direction you seem distorted
Too many things that you want to be
Manipulation is a cycle
And all your lies are self absorbed
Force down bile to fit the mold
Once you're in it stays that way?
All the power you feel still won't set you free
You still think it's out of your hands
Open up your eyes and see what they've made you
The reflection seems crooked and weak
2. Grey City
In the pulse all feels too steady
And everything moves in sync
It doesn't come from the corpse of mankind
Where the heartbeat is weak
Overcome by waves of doubt
And the wind cuts deep
My voice is so small I can't shout
Lost in the drifting stares
Until I wear my own
And I'm drowning
In the grey city
The walls close in on you
Or seem too thin
Every shame you hide dragged into the light
The words taste bitter on their lips
Overcome by the waves of doubt
And thewind cuts deep
My voice so smallI can't shout
Lost in the drifting stares
Until I wear my own
And I'm drowning
All around the pain is on our face
But we've forgot how to relate
It's like underwater you breathe the best
You can't recall how you should think
