Hardwired… to Self‐Destruct

In the name of desperation In the name of wretched pain In the name of all creation Gone insane! We're so fucked! Shit out of luck! Hardwired to self-destruct! Go! On the way to paranoia On the crooked borderline On the way to great destroyer Doom design! We're so fucked! Shit out of luck! Hardwired to self-destruct! Once upon a planet burning Once upon a flame Once upon a fear returning all in vain Do you feel that hope is fading? Do you comprehend? Do you feel it terminating in the end? We're so fucked! Shit out of luck! Hardwired to self-destruct! Hardwired to self-destruct! Self-destruct! Self-destruct! Self-destruct!

Bitterness and burden Curses rest on thee Solitaire and sorrow All Eternity Save the Earth and claim perfection Deem the mass and blame rejection Hold the pose, reign perception Grudges break your back All you bear All you carry All you bear Place it right on, right on me Die as you suffer in vain Own all the grief and the pain Die as you hold up the skies Atlas, Rise! How does it feel on your own? Bound by the world all alone Crushed under heavy skies Atlas, Rise! Crucify and witness Circling the sun Bastardize and ruin What have you become? Blame the world, and blame your maker Wish ‘em to the undertaker Crown yourself the other savior So you carry on All you bear All you carry All you bear Place it right on me, right on me Die as you suffer in vain Own all the grief and the pain Die as you hold up the skies Atlas, Rise! How does it feel on your own? Bound by the world all alone Crushed under heavy skies Crushed under heavy skies Atlas, Rise! Masquerade as maker Heavy is the crown Beaten down and broken Drama wears you down Overload, the martyr stumbles Hit the ground and heaven crumbles All alone, the fear shall humble Swallow all your pride All you bear All you carry All you bear Place it right on, right on me Die as you suffer in vain Own all the grief and the pain Die as you hold up the skies Atlas, Rise! How does it feel on your own? Bound by the world all alone Crushed under heavy skies Crushed under heavy skies Atlas, Rise!

Obey, obey Come, won’t you stay? Sincere, sincere All ends in tears Endure, endure Thoughts most impure Concede, concede But both shall we bleed Oh, halo on fire The midnight knows it well Fast, is desire Creates another hell I fear to turn on the light For the darkness won't go away Fast, is desire Turn out the light Halo on fire Allure, allure Sweetness obscure Abide, abide Secrets inside Deprive, deprive To feel so alive Obey, obey Just don't turn away Oh, halo on fire The midnight knows it well Fast, is desire Creates another hell I fear to turn on the light For the darkness won't go away Fast, is desire Turn out the light Halo on fire Prayers cannot get through Return to sender Unto which of you Shall I surrender?

Wake to face the day Grab this life and walk away War is never done Rub the patch and battle on Make it go away Please, make it go away Confusion All sanity is now beyond me Delusion All sanity is but a memory My life ... the war that never ends Leave the battlefield Yet its horrors never heal Coming home from war Pieces don't fit anymore Make it go away Please, make it go away Confusion All sanity is now beyond me Delusion All sanity is but a memory My life ... the war that never ends Father, please come home Shell shocked all I've known Father, please come home Label him a deadwood soldier now Cast away and left to roam Rapid is the road to sacrifice Just takes longer to come home Come home Confusion All sanity is now beyond me Delusion Crossfire ricochets inside me Trapped in a memory forever My life ... the war that never ends
