Diatribes

Blindless leading Which one of me is real? Through corridors of uncertainty A force without form I've dug a hole so deep Full of the shit of compromise For once can't I keep Pain on the outside Adapt Take on release Others Thoughts infringed Adapt Take on release A life On pause syringed A glimpse into genocide My own emotions, a million strong A heart so full of emptiness

You weren't born with the world falling at your feet The path is long and agonizing being dragged on your knees And the silver spoon in your mouth tasted spoilt with rust When all that glitters isn't gold and fortunes turn to dust You're prime for the raping And when you don't pander to meet the agenda Scavengers start to gather Perverse visionaries taste the lather The just rewards in controlled rebellion Tossed and probed like a gristly piece of meat Lock, stock, and barrel slave You just don't contradict big brother He's got the right to push you under And they pledge you the earth, then pull you six feet down And you're branded with the stigma; unusable dropouts And with inspiration ravaged, you take the final bow The creative demeanor shatted into a million pieces You're ripe for the breaking

25 years severed Take it and like it Feel like there's nothing more And your story Thirsty Despised Real love destroys Hungry for anger The face behind the face Cold forgiveness meant not for me Race against time Collapse Fall in line Nothing is sacred

I lived for a moment I grabbed hold and I didn't relent Skin of my teeth, Holds no longer. And now I come to claim my just rewards. Face down! Ground down with no recourse. And now I come to claim my just rewards. The spoils of the toils are spent. Where is the right place? Where is the right place, right time? If the face fits, wear it Faces fit while heart and soul slopes on. Scraping through - Just Rewards! Dig the dirt - Just Rewards! Hold your ground - Just Rewards! Being sucked down -Just Rewards! Where is the right place? Where is the right place, right time? When you lay down on your own law, You swim against the sanctimonious tides. When you lay down on your own law, You swim against the sanctimonious tides. Down not out - Just Rewards! Looping tracks - Just Rewards! Stuned growth - Just Rewards! Dwindling hope - Just Rewards! I lived for a moment I grabbed hold and I didn't relent Skin of my teeth, Holds no longer. And now I come to claim my just rewards.

Innocence - a painful reminescene Of what was not And will never be. Meant not for me. An unjust war On the futile. Bludgeoning my affection wide open Cries of overkill. Bludgeoning my affection wide open Cries of overkill. Scraps of memories Flung from our master's table. A plan I'm sure to disable. Allegiance to none other. Allegiance to none other. Renegate a healing catharsis That bursts, meaningless. Renegate a healing catharsis That bursts, meaningless. Graceful - selfish will, The chilling thrill, A play on the nerves to end "all serves". As penance To a man's drying tear, My leer but deny ourselves.

Take the strain! Can you take it? Take the strain! Or even fake it? Take the strain! Aren't we lucky Take the strain! to be breathing? Take the strain! Are you the man in the next bed Without the tubes, without the life support? Maybe the man whose pockets weigh you down/ Take the strain! Do you wear strife Take the strain! like a clown? Take the strain! Forgiveness Take the strain! with a frown! Take the strain! Are you the animal That escapes the snares and traps? Bearing no quarry scars, and the hunter's crown. We were taught to follow leaders - follow leaders! NEver to challenge the singular pack. The goals they set slip the grasp - slip our grasp! Chaising tails without the basic facts. Choose full pain, violate, make the grade. Taut wires fray, electro-brain, take the strain! We were taught to follow leaders - follow leaders! Never to challenge the singular pack. The goals they set slip the grasp - slip our grasp! Chaising tails without the basic facts.

Bite the bit, scream till you're blue the face. Nice pipe dreams or passive revolution? Foot soldiers With weapons of placarde and banners. How will they stop the rot? No standing to reason, 'cause reason is treason - It doesn't feasible. No standing to reason, 'cause reason is treason - It doesn't feasible. Lie down. And cry all you can. The machine rolls over you. No standing to reason, 'cause reason is treason - It doesn't feasible. No standing to reason, 'cause reason is treason - It doesn't feasible. It just don't seem feasible - NO! Black to the Nazi - try pleading affinity Hands up, boot in, shattering the passive dream. But is it right to tolerate this fucked democratic process? - NO! Shattering the passive dream Is it 'cause we like to hear the sound of our voice? Big-hearted diatribes, just like my dilemma. Time to return compliments, shattering the passive dream?

Load the burden across my shoulders. Pour the effluent on thick. Placate, sedate, eradicate. Wage a war on my prone feelings. Anaesthetised and numb. Placate, sedate, eradicate. Strangely calm when I should be enranged. Placate, sedate. Placate, sedate. Eradicate. Don't befriend the silver screen, As long as others face firing lines. Recline, relax take it in your stride, Be the voyeur. Tamed by rabid entertainers. Engrossed in real life hell. Placate, sedate, eradicate. Only observing - I'm exempt.

Staying on an even keel. Keeping a gauge. Sanity hags in the balance. I could go either way. Celberal half life. The darkest summer days. My pressure defences melting away. 'Cause I can't level this brimming, seething dread. My pressure defences melting away. With anxiety I'm burning! Stripping down to the core. Corrosive elements, corrosive elements inducing. Corrosive elements, corrosive elements that sap being. Corrosive elements, corrosive elements inducing. Corrosive elements, corrosive elements that sap being. Corrosive elements - joy toxin. Corrosive elements - please cleanse me! Corrosive elements - joy toxin. Corrosive elements - please cleanse me!
