To The End 01:04
I wish I could ignore it, the pull to the end But my elders dictate I must keep it in the trend And if I don't board this train of thought Then I'll get left behind I wish I could ignore it, the cycle that I'm in But neurons keep on moving, don't need my intervention But even if I was behind the steering wheel I wouldn't know which direction to turn I wish I could Ignore it, the pull to the end But I've opened up the book and this is how it read People dying everyday, to escape this hollow life And I know it 'cause they told me That this is the way it's supposed to be Nothing to gain from looking in So I'll just keep pushing to the end.

Two Minutes 02:12
We're here today to regulate emotional compost We understand you pose a threat to our power and control People today have a little too much floating on their minds Give them an antidote and they'll fall right into line The sirens of our occupation just won't do their jobs We need a moral compass to push the people towards a cause Maybe we should make it something you'll never see Maybe we should broadcast it right through your TV Two Minutes TWO MINUTES Two minutes to find everything you're looking for Two minutes to put some meaning to your life Two Minutes TWO MINUTES.. of hate Spread the static mindset 'til there's nothing left to cover The party that you represent, there'll never be another Let the people know that we're the victims of the land We don't need your sympathy, just do anything you can Two Minutes TWO MINUTES Two minutes to find everything you're looking for Two minutes to put some meaning to the strife Two Minutes TWO MINUTES.. of.. Hate everything without reason or a limitation Provoke your fellow man for causing all your pain You're an individual who should answer to no one And now that we have your attention, we finally hold the reins Two Minutes TWO MINUTES Two minutes to find everything you're looking for Two minutes to put some meaning to your life Two Minutes TWO MINUTES.. of hate.

Catalyst 02:16
Everyone's on something that I can't describe It'll take your search for time, and leave it behind I don't know what they're saying, but they stare at me Always so overwhelmed that nothing gets complete Commitment. Imprisonment. IT'S ALL THE SAME EVERYDAY Today is the day that I sell my soul And tomorrow will be the same Now I'm stuck on something that I should despise It's like a shot of adrenaline shot straight into my eyes A cruel, deserved voyeur, it stares at me Dreams are just a synonym for codependency Commitment. Imprisonment. IT'S ALL THE SAME EVERYDAY Today is the day that I sell my soul And tomorrow will be the same Thinking of a time when I could be myself So full of hope, but always asking for help Just another useless tool that can't take the heat Whose inner graveyard shift will never retreat I'm stuck in this dilemma, and I can't explore Waiting for the right words, but they don't visit anymore At the altar another cog in the machine My catalyst and I were always meant to be *EJBK*(#OE)(D)#(()$(*()##)()YU(*##*HO(#(U*(YHO#Y F#(*#)($*YT()(EF*H$(*)(&@__@_)#YRF(*Y*Y((*)#*(Y@(*Y

Antiseptic 01:24
Open the door to this quiet room There's something hidden deep within An escape from all the dirt and grime An escape from all the sin The world outside is a bigger place But it can't contain my fear Of the dangerous minds that lurk outside I don't know how they survive out there ANTISEPTIC. And running out of time ANTISEPTIC. Sinking further everyday ANTISEPTIC. Afraid of the world outside ANTISEPTIC. And I gotta get away Set up from the start No wonder I turned out a square Straight lines, delivered on time Without a free form anywhere Dirt. Toil. The quest. For health. WONT YOU SAVE ME FROM MYSELF ANTISEPTIC. And running out of time ANTISEPTIC. Sinking further everyday ANTISEPTIC. Afraid of the world outside ANTISEPTIC. And I gotta get away

Newsflash 02:01
NEWSFLASH We control the resources that you rightfully deserve And the squalor that you're living in describes what you're worth AND LIFE'S JUST NOT WORTH LIVING ANYMORE NEWSFLASH There's a life of fame and fortune that's right outside your door If only you'd the tenacity to get up off the floor Here's the story of someone who has Thousands of channels streaming right toward you Personality deriven from electron tubes Ideas of the self are slowly fading away The pill you're given is the pill you'll take NEWSFLASH The state of the world just gets worse everyday The only thing left to do is kneel down and pray THANK YOU WORLD FOR TUNING IN.

Silently watching, a behemoth we cannot see Our programming compels us to ignore it Like a colony of ants, trying to find shade to cope The whole of humanity under the microscope It's the All-Seeing Eye DECEIVING US ALL WITH IT'S MIGHT Big eye in the sky, coming down from heaven Wires, woven to drive out anything that's left Grave and near, the march comes closer now Souls full of depravity, wondering how It's the All-Seeing Eye THERE'S NO REDEMPTION IN SIGHT

Mass Appeal 01:12
Existence defined my ownership. The function doesn't matter much to me. I'm slowly being consumed by the ever-growing compulsions To possess to the point that it's giving me convulsions BUT IT'S JUST NEVER ENOUGH Lose the intelligence It's not what's making the sale Lose it all We're just looking for the mass appeal. What's the use of being independent? When I just want you to sway me? I'm beginning to realize judgement was the reason why I'm destroyed by the looks of every passer-by BUT THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH Lose the intelligence It's not what's making the sale Lose it all We're just looking for the mass appeal. Lose your persistence It makes you look so pale Lose it all WE'RE JUST LOOKING FOR THE MASS APPEAL

Here comes our savior with his valor and might Look up to him he's sure to know what is right Here comes our savior, he's just like you and I When asked for explanation he need not give a reason why Here he comes What do we do? Accept him for his ignorance and the follow through? Here he is Turn him away Before he takes our self control, and leads us all astray Here comes our savior, turning water into lies When faced with a conflict, he shall never compromise Here comes our savior, an enigma to time To his miracle production, let us dedicate our lives Here he comes What do we do? Accept him for his ignorance and the follow through? Here he is Turn him away Before he takes our self control and throws it all away HERE. NOW. Coming down from heaven To make sure we all come down as well Here he comes What do we do? Accept him for his ignorance and the follow through? Here he is Turn him away Before he takes our self control, and leads us all astray HERE. NOW. COMING DOWN FROM HEAVEN TO MAKE SURE WE ALL COME DOWN AS WELL.

Reality 02:27
All alone, and crumbled in this world The plight continues for the common man Unbeknownst, and growing introverted A mind that's perfect for the master plan Right in front of unsuspecting faces Never to be seen.. REALITY REALITY So it goes, those left all alone Take comfort in a world that is not at hand So they search, and prostitute their souls Just for something they can understand Right in front of unsuspecting faces Never to be seen REALITY REALITY Past it's dawn and growing out of fashion Never to be seen REALITY REALITY Right in front of unsuspecting faces Never to be seen REALITY REALITY REALITY REALITY

There's something in this world that's missing from today A mass of minds willing to look their own way What should I be thinking? I simply cannot choose Would someone step out of the shadows and tell me what to do? Everybody's searching, searching for a cause Someone else to look up to or maybe just a god I don't what you're looking for, but you won't find it here The only advice I have for you is JUST LOOK ELSEWHERE So many scrambling, looking for a purpose With their news feeds to remind them that it's all fucking worthless In a world full of culture, is it something to deplore? I'll never tell cause I'm a culture whore Everybody's searching, searching for a cause Someone else to look up to, or maybe just a god I don't know what you're looking for, but you won't find it here THE ONLY ADVICE I HAVE FOR YOU IS JUST LOOK ELSEWHERE

The Truth 02:18
Points of view are cascading all around Any effort to compensate just lets me down Tired of being deceived by the dismal lie A lonely life of ignorance is no accomplice of mine Every night I'm tormented by the bitter sleep And the elephant in the room still won't reveal itself Spent too many long nights staring in the mirror Just trying to make this world look a little clearer I know it's something that I'm probably never going to find It takes so much effort just to pry those blinders off But I'll probably keep on pressing on, like the ones who came before The ones who met their maker in the search for something more But it's just so easy to fail again When searching for something so alien And I know this is a little taboo BUT I JUST WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH
