ORDER FROM CHAOS LYRICS
"Live: Into Distant Fears" (1994 EP)
1. Stillbirth Machine
2. Plateau of Invincibility
1. Stillbirth Machine
I am an alien from another world
Sent to communicate a message
Of wisdom I speak but no one hears me
Deaf ears, dull eyes leave me behind
Encased inside blooded flesh
I communicate my message of truth
But you are senseless
To what should never have been forgotten
The walls are built higher and stronger
Word by word, the walls of ignorance
And the worm procreates in my belly
Begat of spite and hate
I must pay the wage of sin
Delusions of grandeur
Until my birth starts again
Contractions warm this beating heart
Umbilically chained to the machine
Re-emergence of a second coming
Deliverance into the barren world
Infanticidal process of regurgitation
And the chrisom's tears cannot dry
Realization hits like a hammer
As societal stillbirth machine rolls on
Rusty gears feeding itself confusion
I choke and gasp on this poisoned world
And see myself and other human wreckage
If I had just one wish it would be
To crawl back into the womb
Hope is the lie that gropes towards doom
Blind leading blind
What we were, we are, and forever will be
Thy will be done
Ignorant worms
White blind and deaf
And forever doomed
Groping futility in the sunlight
And machinations of the truth
Breaths of pollutants spout from the lips
Protective measures gas mask welds with flesh
Adaptation mutation self preservation
The curse of wisdom
I see with my eyes plucked out
I hear with my ears crushed
Plead for freedom
Taste the salt (tears for humanity)
Tears plow furrows down my cheeks
What have I done
Now I know that ignorance is bliss
When I did crawl from the blighted womb
Childlike spawn of diseased ovum
Warmth of pain is gone
My message is clear
We are like them - you and I are one
Stunted embryonic forms
No wisdom unintelligible products of the
Stillbirth machine
Why did I ever think I was not
We are like them
And I grope blindly in the light
You and I are one
Truth sears flesh withers (can't read this bit)
I was wrong
I am nothingness I am dust
Begone
