Memento Mori Lyrics
[Intro]
By the darkest river
Beneath the leafless trees
I think I'm drowning
This dream is killing me
(Wake up, wake up, wake up)
In the coldest winter
Between the fading lights
I feel I'm falling into a frozen sky
(Wake up, wake up, wake up)
Past the blackest heaven
Above the dying stars
I watch me breaking into a million shards
(Wake up, wake up, wake up)
But through the hardest hour
Below the cruelest sign
I know I'm waking up from this wretched lie
(Wake up, wake up)
Wake up
[Verse 1]
A depression fed by overload
False perceptions, the weight of the world
A universe in the palm of your hand
The artifice of endless strands
[Pre-Chorus]
Distraction flows down an obsessive stream
Rejection grows into oppressive screams
[Chorus]
The hardest hour, the cruelest sign
I'm waking up from this wretched lie
I fight it the same, don't waste this day
Wake up, wake up, wake up
Memento mori
[Verse 2]
The regression of advancing modes
And imperial corrosive nodes
A prime directive to disconnect
Reclaim yourself and resurrect
[Pre-Chorus]
Distraction flows down an obsessive stream
Rejection grows into oppressive screams
[Chorus]
The hardest hour, the cruelest sign
I'm waking up from this wretched lie
I fight it the same, don't waste this day
Wake up, wake up, wake up
Memento mori
[Bridge]
There's too many choices
And I hear their relentless voices
But you've gotta run them out
Return to now and shut it down
Shut it down
A depression fed by overload
False perceptions, the weight of the world
Because there's too many choices
Gotta kill their relentless voices
(Wake up, wake up)
I know I'm waking up from this wretched lie
[Chorus]
The hardest hour, the cruelest sign
I'm waking up from this wretched lie
I fight it the same, don't waste this day
Wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up
Memento mori
Memento mori
Checkmate Lyrics
[Intro]
That's cool
I got the DI
I didn't do it yet
I got the DI
I didn't do it yet
It's to a click, Mark!
Alright, sweet
One, two, three, four
[Verse 1]
Watch the gears grind off their teeth, the screeching halt machine
Digging heels in disbelief
Two reactional identities, opposing policies
A bait and switch routine
Double takes and double-speak
Still scripting the facade
Asphyxiate and choke the truth
All hail the money god
[Chorus]
Repeat, echo, refrain
It's all the same, so deafening
Repeat, echo, refrain
A consequence, we asked for this
Repeat, echo, refrain
No, never again
The American scream
[Verse 2]
A coup d'état on full display, a liar's sick charade
A traitor's grand parade
Narcissistic masquerades for those without a say
Systematic disarray
Divide and conquer and close them in
And bury secrets deep
Make America hate again
And bleed the sheep to sleep
[Chorus]
Repeat, echo, refrain
It's all the same, so deafening
Repeat, echo, refrain
A consequence, we asked for this
Repeat, echo, refrain
No, never again
The American scream
(Scream)
[Bridge]
You try to pick the lesser of
But evil doesn't come in twos
Bellicose and Balkanized
A sinking ship of fools
So kiss the hangman as you drop
The rotting corpse of decency
Just another casualty of the American scream
Scream
The American scream
[Chorus]
Repeat, echo, refrain
It's all the same, so deafening
Repeat, echo, refrain
A consequence, we asked for this
Repeat, echo, refrain
No, never again
The American scream
Never again
Gears Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You suffer from a manufactured sickness and envy by design
Pre-calculated status and patterns of desire
Accumulation and adoration, built to feed your ostentation
Perpetually unsatisfied, but you never question why
[Pre-Chorus]
So hang it on the wall of your golden cage
Tell yourself that it means something
[Chorus]
Empty actions to fill the time
Commercial gods keep you in line
Industry and empire thrive
While you're dying for always more
[Verse 2]
Your endless hunger automated, industry defined
A systematic impulse, parametric lines
Subjugation and degradation, the blueprint to your annihilation
Your assets personified, a product of the times
[Pre-Chorus 2]
So hang a mirror on the wall of your golden cage
Tell yourself that you mean something
[Chorus]
Empty actions to fill the time
Commercial gods keep you in line
Industry and empire thrive
While you're dying for always more
[Bridge]
So you can't take it with you but you don't use it now
A shallow life to crush you, drive you into the ground
So scared to lose the nothings you acquire
Everything must fall, bones on a pyre
[Refrain]
(So scared to lose it all)
(So scared to lose it all)
(So scared to lose it all)
Always more
Always more
More and more and more
[Chorus]
Empty actions to fill the time
Commercial gods keep you in line
Industry and empire thrive
While you're dying for always more
[Outro]
Always more
Resurrection Man Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was born in a cemetery
And learned to walk on skulls and bones
Was taught to speak by the living dead
And raised beneath a funeral moon
[Chorus]
Horror stories, talking heads
Segregate the living dead
The living dead
[Verse 2]
I'm a shadow on your brightest dreams
A horse for Baron Samedi
Pure voodoo, economic hell
I've come to pick your carcass clean
[Chorus]
Horror stories, talking heads
Segregate the living dead
Horror stories, talking heads
Shilling for the thoroughbreds
Racial strife and rising debts
Segregate the living dead
[Bridge]
I'm the resurrection man
A jackal in a three-piece suit
Death and taxes for the damned
Brought to heel beneath my boot
So chase that carrot straight to Hell
The status that you're dying for
And decorate your coffin well
The system is a graveyard
I'm Loki in the counting room
Trickle-down narcotic doom
Superfunds for cancer towns
The bottom line is six feet down
(I'm gonna bury you)
(I'm gonna bury you)
In barren ground
Six feet down
[Outro]
Horror stories, talking heads
The living dead
I'm gonna bury you
Barren ground
On the Hook Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A dead silver spoon with needles in his skin
Rode a pale horse down from Afghanistan
Tears in the suburbs, mothers praying for their damned
Death has crept into their zone of the promised land
[Pre-Chorus 1]
But just before each plague
The clearest prophecies
Pandora's box in backwoods pharmacies
A contract to die
[Chorus]
Prescription for a homicide
A generation on the hook
Addicted and commodified
Prescription for a homicide
[Verse 2]
Narcotic economics for the miner’s sons
The seams went bust so long ago with nowhere else to turn
Strip mine the veins, drill the abscess dry
Incentives for the architects of their genocide
[Pre-Chorus 2]
We've seen this all before
In a different shade
The Dark Alliance shifts to the modern age
A contract to die
[Chorus]
Prescription for a homicide
A generation on the hook
Addicted and commodified
Prescription for a homicide
Prescription for a homicide
They're never worth a second look
Addicted and commodified
Your prescription for a homicide
[Bridge]
A contract to die
A contract to die
A contract to die
A contract to die
Die, die, die, die
[Outro]
Hippocratic hypocrites
Breaking oaths and cashing checks
Wrote an ocean’s worth of ink
Scripting a nation's disease
A systematic business plan
To broker death, increase demand
So flood the ghetto and starve the hills
Kill them all with crack and pills
Kill them all
Kill them all
(Vietnam, Iran-Contra, Park Avenue, OxyContin)
