1. Miscalculation
Painfully aware honesty hurts
what worked before no longer works
new strains appear day after day
resisting the old cures at increasing rates
miscaluclation
memories fading away
black aggravation giving birth this way
sick of dilution tired of politics
experimental drug with unknown sideeffects
hold on to the past for dear life
decaying relic of a simpler time
outdated methods rendered obsolete
the tried and the true cannot compete
self amputation escape from the trap
cut loose I am forced to change and adapt
chemical baptism through this I am reborn
I welcome my mutation into another form
2. Nailed to a Cross
Repression and guilt tightly confined
Red Lizard lips skin cracked and dry
ashamed of the heat nether mouth stench
baptize the meat drool cup attached
avoiding the gaze of the dead wooden eye
Nailed to a cross hung out to dry
2000 years bent over and raped
beaten like dogs in human state
I punish myself for watching her flesh
by pushing within where virus infests
salt in the wound a lesson well learned
taking a piss feeling the burn
suffer in silence impaled on the flesh
stainless steel table latex caress
3. Youth Gone Mild
Brains locked Down Suspended in time
Perpetual nothin on a reverse decline
Passing the days Isolated state
Spray paint vandals verbalize the hate
inbred slowing down to a crawl
thry're cloning themselves at the shopping mall
Buying shrink wrapped rebellion and anarchy
the latest style for the youth gone mild
Alternative How can you make that claim
when you look thik and ac t exactly the same
conservative sheep in a wolf's leather jacket
living off your parents while you sound sarcastic
4. Gag Rule
Subjected to scorn and a campaign of lies
spread like a virus I corrode from inside
Bent and raped displayed in disgrace
Publicize that which they wish to erase
it's nice to know they're protecting the youth
It's all for the best if they never know the truth
20/20 vision in black and white
Secure in the knowledge that they are right
The moral guardians can drown in my piss
They think if they hide it then it doesn't exist
Confiscate my video claim it's obscene,
then they rewind and jack off ot the sickest scene
5. Processor
The pain escapes me
the drain creates me
Conditioned reflex survival reaserch
Fear and loathing junk
sick dawn monolithic idiot
god blackened bones in piles
Classified and filed toxic sun seeps through
blinds out of sight of mind
Slag walking with the faceless
nameless in their graves
gnawing pangs of hunger
constant empty throb fifth disease
abrasion chronic deprivation famine
swarm of locust clawing for release
slow fuck passion hatred fluid filled
clusters form dread in random sequence
eating off the floor
6. Mission
Grinding teeth hands wet on the wheel
rearview check for sentinel
rotten gold tooth pay phone smile
I'll help you out if you do me right
Shadow moving unseen unsuspected unclean
Sixth sense homing in
Push the chore again
Flies on shit with mouths agape
I join the swarm and take the bait
in my brain butane ringing for a crumb
scavenger beggin urban streets of decay
call me night and day
fill my empty life burning out of sight
7. Graft
Repossessing borrowed skin
technician makes it new again
black blood filters nicotine snorting drano
clogging spleen sick sweet smell collapsing vein
singing in the acid rain flies buzz round
yellow flesh crawling away from dead carcass
antiseptic apathy I cut you but you do not bleed
vacant stare through insect eyes
cathode ray tranquilize
thriving in its pale blue light indoctrinated
every night choke on your own mediocrity
a stagnant pool where larvae breed
your life is forfeit reduced to ash
flesh container
reject the graft
8. American Dream
Power surge underground
grease the wheel
shut em down decisions made
price you paid hands are tied should have lied
play the game feel no shame
climbing up broken backs manipulate
infiltrate segregate dominate
feed the machine
American dream you burn
9. Breeding Ontempt
Festering anxiety shrouded in shame
Lying dormant taking hated shape
Triggered by fear infect the nerve
Sleeper awake
Recurrent curse
sanitize sterilize lace with morphine
Fortify ritual of compulsion
Cleansed of all compassion
Love Honor and Cherish the wound
Never healing always bleeding
in the dark where contempt is breeding
Carving my name in the primitive flesh
Frail and delicate cold and stretched
Tight on a frame weakened and collapsing
slowly turning in the pain you are basking
Drowning in humanity
doing hard time organically
Hate factory working overtime
agony rolls off the assembly line
10. Abort
