Dead Inside Lyrics

[It] is a pretty jaded song where the person loses hope and therefore… Read More [Intro]
Dead inside
(Dead inside)
[Verse 1]
Revere a million prayers
And draw me into your holiness
But there's nothing there
Light only shines from those who share
Unleash a million drones
And confine me then erase me, babe
Do you have no soul?
It's like it died, long ago
[Chorus]
Your lips feel warm to the touch
You can bring me back to life
On the outside, you're ablaze and alive
But you're dead inside
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
You're free to touch the sky
Whilst I am crushed and pulverised
Because you need control
Now I'm the one who's letting go
You like to give an inch
Whilst I am giving infinity
But now I've got nothing left
You have no cares and I'm bereft
[Chorus]
Your skin feels warm to caress
I see magic in your eyes
On the outside, you're ablaze and alive
But you're dead inside
(Dead inside)
[Bridge]
Feel me now, hold me please
I need you to see who I am
Open up to me, stop hiding from me
It's hurting, babe, only you can stop the pain
Don't leave me out in the cold
Don't leave me out to die
I gave you everything, I can't give you any more
Now I've become just like you
[Outro]
My lips feel warm to the touch
My words seem so alive
My skin is warm to caress
I'll control and hypnotize
You've taught me to lie without a trace
And to kill with no remorse
On the outside, I'm the greatest guy
Now I'm dead inside
(Dead inside)

Psycho Lyrics

[Verse 1: Matt Bellamy]
Love, it will get you nowhere
You're on your own
Lost in the wild
So come to me now
I could use someone like you
Someone who'll kill on my command
And ask no questions
[Pre-Chorus: Matt Bellamy]
I'm gonna make you
I'm gonna break you
I'm gonna make you
A fucking psycho
[Chorus: Matt Bellamy]
A fucking psycho
Ha-ha, a fucking psycho
Your ass belongs to me now, oh
[Post-Chorus: Drill Sergeant & Soldier]
Are you a human drone? Aye, sir
Are you a killing machine? Aye, sir
I'm in control, motherfucker, do you understand? Aye, sir
[Verse 2: Matt Bellamy]
Your mind is just a program
And I'm the virus
I'm changing the station
I'll improve your thresholds
I'll turn you into a super drone (A super drone)
And you will kill on my command
And I won't be responsible
[Pre-Chorus: Matt Bellamy]
I'm gonna make you
I'm gonna break you
I'm gonna make you
A fucking psycho
[Chorus: Matt Bellamy]
A fucking psycho
Ha-ha, a fucking psycho
Your ass belongs to me now
[Post-Chorus: Drill Sergeant & Soldier]
Are you a psycho killer? Say "I'm a psycho killer"
I am a psycho killer!
Scream it! I am a psycho killer!
Show me your war face! Ah!
You are a pussy, I said show me your war face! Ah!
[Pre-Chorus: Matt Bellamy]
I'm gonna make you
I'm gonna break you
I'm gonna make you
A fucking psycho
[Chorus: Matt Bellamy]
A fucking psycho
Ha-ha, a fucking psycho
Your ass belongs to me now
[Bridge: Drill Sergeant, Soldier, Matt Bellamy]
I will break you, do you understand?
I will break you, do you understand?
I will break you, do you understand?
I will break you, do you understand?
Aye, sir
You fucking psycho
[Outro: Matt Bellamy]
Your ass belongs to me now (Yeah)
Your ass belongs to me now, ooh-ah

Mercy Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Help me, I've fallen on the inside
I tried to change the game, I tried to infiltrate but now I'm losing
[Pre-Chorus]
Men in cloaks always seem to run the show
Save me from the ghosts and shadows before they eat my soul, yeah
[Chorus]
Mercy, mercy
Show me mercy, from the powers that be
Show me mercy, can someone rescue me?
[Verse 2]
Absent gods and silent tyranny, we're going under
Hypnotized by another puppeteer, and tell me why the
[Pre-Chorus]
Men in cloaks always have to bring me down
Running from the ghosts and shadows the world just disavows, yeah
[Chorus]
Mercy, mercy
Show me mercy, from the powers that be
Show me mercy, can someone rescue me?
[Post-Chorus]
Show me mercy
Show me mercy, please
[Bridge]
Help me, I've fallen on the inside
And all the men in cloaks trying to devour my soul
[Chorus]
Show me mercy from the powers that be
Show me mercy from the gutless and mean
Show me mercy from the killing machines
Show me mercy, can someone rescue me?

Reapers Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Home, it's becoming a killing field
There's a crosshair locked on my heart
With no recourse and there's no one behind the wheel
Hellfire, you're wiping me out, killed by
[Pre-Chorus]
Drones (Killed by)
Drones (Killed by)
[Chorus]
You rule with lies and deceit
And the world is on your side
'Cause you've got the CIA, babe
(You can run but you're never gonna hide)
But all you've done is brutalise
(You can run but you're never gonna gonna gonna)
Drones!
[Verse 2]
War, war just moved up a gear
I don't think I can handle the truth
I'm just a pawn
And we're all expendable
Incidentally electronically erased by your
[Pre-Chorus]
Drones (Killed by)
Drones (Killed by)
[Chorus]
You kill by remote control
And the world is on your side
You've got reapers and hawks, babe
(You can run but you're never gonna hide)
Now I am radicalized
(You can run but you're never gonna gonna gonna)
Drones! (Killed by)
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
(You can run but you're never gonna hide)
(You can run but you're never gonna gonna gonna)
(You can run but you're never gonna hide)
(You can run but you're never gonna gonna gonna)
You rule with lies and deceit
And the world is on your side
You've got the CIA, babe
But all you've done is brutalise
[Chorus]
You kill by remote control
(You can run but you're never gonna hide)
And the world is on your side
(You can run but you're never gonna gonna gonna)
You've got reapers and hawks, babe
(You can run but you're never gonna hide)
Now I am radicalized
(You can run but you're never gonna gonna gonna)
[Outro]
Here come the drones!
Here come the drones!
Here come the drones!

The Handler Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You (You, you) were my oppressor
And I, (I, I) I have been programmed to obey
But now (Now, now) you are my handler
And I, (I, I) I will execute your demands
[Chorus]
Leave me alone
I must disassociate from you
[Verse 2]
Behold (-hold, -hold) my trance formation
And you (You, you) are empowered to do as you please
My mind (Mind, mind) was lost in translation
And my heart (Heart, heart) has become a cold and impassive machine
[Chorus]
Leave me alone
I must disassociate from you, yeah-yeah
Bum-bu-dayuh, bu-dayuh, bu-dayuh, bu-dayuhohoh
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Outro]
I won't let you control my feelings anymore
And I will no longer do as I am told
And I am no longer afraid to walk alone
Let me go, let me be
I am escaping from your grip
You will never own me again, yeah-yeah
Bum-bu-dayuh, bu-dayuh, bu-dayuh, bu-dayuhohoh

Defector Lyrics

[Chorus]
Free, yeah, I'm free
From your ins-ins-inciting
You can't brainwash me
You've got a problem
Free, yeah I'm free
From society
You can't control me
I'm a defector
[Verse 1]
You think you're strong and you can't be broken
But your empire is dissolving
You thought, you thought I was weak
But you got it wrong, look into my eyes, I'm a defector
[Chorus]
Free, yeah, I'm free
From your ins-ins-inciting
You can't brainwash me
You've got a problem
Free, yeah I'm free
From society
You can't control me
I'm a defector
[Verse 2]
Your blood is blue and your mind's turned green
And your belly is all yellow
You believe your throne is too high
To be overthrown, we'll watch it get razed by a defector
[Chorus]
Free, yeah, I'm free
From your ins-ins-inciting
You can't brainwash me
You've got a problem
Free, yeah I'm free
From society
You can't control me
I'm a defector
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm a defector
[Chorus]
Free, yeah, I'm free
From your ins-ins-inciting
You can't brainwash me
You've got a problem
Free, yeah I'm free
From society
You can't control me
I'm a defector
[Outro — JFK]
We look for strength and assistance
Confident that with your help
Man will be what he was born to be:
Free and independent

Revolt Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How did we get in so much trouble?
Getting out just seems impossible
Oppression is persisting
I can't fight this brain conditioning
Our freedom's just a loan
Run by machines and drones
They've got us locked into their sights
Soon, they'll control what's left inside
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't try to hide it
Don't tell me it's not there
[Chorus]
You've got strength, you've got soul
You've felt pain, you've felt love
You can grow (You can grow), you can grow (You can grow)
You can make this world what you want
You can revolt, you can revolt
You can revolt, ooh-oh
[Verse 2]
Can you hear a distant thunder?
Taste earth's blood and hunger
We live in a toxic jungle
Truth is suppressed to mumbles
They'll take away our homes
They're just machines and drones
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't try to fight it
Don't tell me you can't see
[Chorus]
You've got strength, you've got soul
You've felt pain, you've felt love
You can grow (You can grow), you can grow (You can grow)
You can make this world what you want
You can revolt, you can revolt
You can revolt, ooh-oh
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
I can feel your pain
And I can feel your confusion
I can see you're trapped in a maze
Let's find a way to escape
[Chorus]
You've got strength, you've got soul
You're not afraid, you're not a drone
You can grow (You can grow), you can grow (You can grow)
You can make this world what you want
You can revolt, you can revolt
You can revolt, ooh-oh

Aftermath Lyrics

[Verse 1]
War is all around, I'm growing tired of fighting
I've been drained and I can't hide it
But I have strength for you, you're all that's real anymore
I am coming home now, I need your comfort
[Chorus]
From this moment, from this moment
You will never be alone
We're bound together, now and forever
The loneliness has gone
[Verse 2]
States are crumbling, and walls are rising high again
It's no place for the faint-hearted
But my heart is strong 'cause now I know where I belong
It's you and I against the world, and we are free
[Chorus]
From this moment, from this moment
You will never be alone
We're bound together, now and forever
The loneliness has gone
[Bridge]
We've gone against the tide
All we have is each other now
And I am coming home now
I need your comfort
[Chorus]
(From this moment) From this moment, (From this moment) from this moment
(You will never be alone) Never be alone, yeah
(We're bound together) We're bound together, (Now and forever) now and forever
(The loneliness has gone) The loneliness has gone
(From this moment) From this moment, (From this moment) from this moment
(You will never be alone) Never be alone
We're bound together, now and forever
The loneliness has gone
From this moment (From this moment), from this moment (From this moment)
You will never be alone
We're bound together, now and forever
The loneliness has gone
[Outro]
We're bound together
Now and forever
The loneliness has gone

The Globalist Lyrics

[Part I]
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse]
You were never truly loved
You have only been betrayed
You were never truly nurtured
By churches or the state
You were left unprotected
To these wild and fragile lands
But you can rise up like a god
Arm yourself, you can be strong
You can build a nuclear power
Transform the earth to your desire
Free your mind from false beliefs
You can be the commander in chief
You can hide your true motives
To dismantle and destroy
[Chorus]
Now you finally have the code
I have given you the code
[Part II]
[Interlude]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
(Ten, nine, eight, seven, six)
(Five, four, three, two, one, fire)
[Instrumental]
[Part III]
[Verse 1]
There's no country left
To love and cherish
It's gone, it's gone for good
It's you and me, babe, survivors
To hunt and gather memories
Of the great nation we were
[Verse 2]
There's no countries left
To fight and conquer
I think I destroyed them all
It's human nature, the greatest hunter will
Survive alone with no one left to love
[Interlude]
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
[Verse 3]
There's no culture left
To love and cherish
It's gone, you know it's gone for good
A trillion memories lost in space and time
Forevermore
I just wanted, I just needed to be loved

Drones Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Killed by drones
My mother, my father
My sister and my brother
My son and my daughter
[Verse 2]
Killed by drones
Our lives between your fingers and your thumb
Can you feel anything at all? Are you dead inside?
Now you can kill from the safety of your home with drones
[Outro]
Amen
