2.	Science 04:19	lyrics	buy track
Construct a new world Hurl the gods from their throne Destroy "what-may-be" Evolving the convenient lie That binds the future to the past Nothing matters anyway The magical is beyond rational Never give it another thought You are worthless, you are human Resign your dreams to oblivion Thus we speak All too predictably Like biological machines Alive for nothing Without evidence You won't believe Faithlessness leaves you In everlasting apathy Rebuke all those Who don't fully see The hypocrite's fallacy A lie called objectivity Truth has error Your faith in error
3.	Dogma 05:02	lyrics	buy track
Come, oh child of simple faith, cast your eyes Upon the stage shining bright, a man named "God" Together, we pray for wealth, a promise to ignite... ...Fire Burns our souls Into ash For our sins The age of man Be not lonely, dear sweet lost child Be one in peace, my word guides us Confess your sins, until you're saved Only your works make you holy Repent to men, undo free will Stoke your passion, embers grow to... Give your mind to spare your torment Give your world or fall from Zion Prepare your heart, the end is nigh, the final act Give testament to your great faith, thy will be done You've followed well, no take this last drink, your Sacrament Absolute submission, apostate not, now be engulfed by...
4.	Mouthpieces 03:30	lyrics	buy track
TV, radio Mass media microphones Infect me, direct me Tell me where to cast my vote Yes, no, I don't know I can't think on my own Tune it in, turn it up Opinions made in stereo Lead us down Lead us down With our own thoughts Own sounds Text drain, thoughts slain God forbid I use my brain I'll listen, only listen To what corruption has to say Pander, spread fear Make the points loud and clear Rhetoric, does the trick Here's a new spin for you to hear We've got the words that make us The message to bring us back to greatness We've got the path to be righteous Hear our words and think like us Kill 'em and kill 'em and kill 'em until they understand Tall tales, Wild Bill Rabble rouse against my will Exaggerate, uneducate You have to close your mind for the thrill Big shots on top Generalize without a thought Make a claim, hold in vain Pretty faces that can be bought
5.	Apathetics 04:36	lyrics	buy track
No! Deny the myth of old A future without fear Or consequence to fail Failure to be... Nothing more than mundane, unending Chains of hopelessness and repeating days Intentional rejection to experience A grave marked by the name of "life" A bitter pill to swallow No better drive than the pain we endure A choice to decompose To reject all meaning as the soul erodes No! Renounce the burden The rote days of pain The pain to follow Always follow... The guide to the end with no real triumph And yet, here we are, awaking to another yesterday We will never admit How we drown in regret No! One more day of the same Never to be one's fate That was built alone Never to escape... The constant dream to be someone else From dawn to dusk, the same old story Abandon creation for doldrum facades The walls that trap an uninspired reality
6.	...The Path... 06:29	lyrics	buy track
From the first time a second ticked and we became aware We've been searching for a way to reunite To harmonize with what lies beyond time There's a way to rise up without suffering We must evolve at least as much As we threaten to fade away Encourage the world to break free And see all there is to see with... The emergence of mind The experience of life Let nothing be undone The end will surely come When the last vision is done And heaven will be one Remember how the past used to guide us Remember that the world stays when we no longer care Do not forget your own possibility Do not lose sight of what must be done Do not give up on your visions and dreams Or give up on whatever fate may bring Someday the world will nothing left to show The distinction of perfection rests in pure harmony Let not your ambitions be lost to complacency Hold your head high and give what you may

8.	Consumer 05:03	lyrics	buy track
Appeal to our basest senses Minds lost wandering Focused on false reality A haven of idolatry Admire it and consume it Accomplish nothing for yourself Follow all that's been created And leave nothing of your own Your world of blue screens Doesn't amount to shit Your material dreams Hold us from reality, hold us from eternity Worship the digital celebrity Nothing to show for yourself Vicarious non-existence Null binary experience Happiness is one more trophy Unlocked in the blood of virtual war Lost reason, lost thinking The arts regress into rust We consume more We devolve more All we care for Is the next big nothing

What day is today? God, I can't take this pain I want the world to fade If I can't be Superman again It doesn't matter how Or who else has to fall I'll have another taste There's no lie too big or small Open wound fire! Into another world Your can forget the ones Who loved you Open wound fire! Into another world Say goodbye to the life That you know Mommy found a new friend He'll stay for the day He'll give me what I want My body is the only way to pay Now run along children Go take care of yourselves Scour through the filthy house While mommy enjoys herself The blood burns and feasts on the brain I spew wretched lies in conflicted pain There's no love lost and nothing to give We're all beasts with no right to live The worms crawl into my skin Stab deep into the vein Every new sin erased The monsters come out to play I've got the next big plan But I need some more from you I'll take whatever I need And then my dreams will come true
