Napalm Death
Album • 1990
Witness torment in its purest form Impossible definition of infinite pain Look into my eyes What do you think you see? What you see is not me But a dormant stage of what I'm expected to be Realities lifeline cuts through me Forever destined to a life of misery Realities lifeline cuts through me It manifests my vision conquest Mourn not the dead The living suffer Enter me Witness torment

Your self-determined place of value Think before you act! Can you justifiably criticise A situation's development Sometimes there's only a single path Which we have to walk You realise before you even speak That we're standing in a one-way street Why should we retreat? - To satisfy your gain? Think hard - tell me What's your actual thoughts? Could you even give your brain the time of day? I'm not defending things I've said or done But let he without sin Cast the first begrudging stone If the truth be known You desire to judge unchallenged And revel in the according attention

Malformed spirit An infestation Suppressing ways of communication Depression lingers Then the journey At wits end in a socialised hell Confusion in recognition Pessimistic thoughts invade Shared amounts to achieve a goal Roles reversed could summon change Confusion in recognition Pessimistic thoughts invade Shared amounts to achieve a goal Roles reversed could summon change Change Expectations are enquired Exceptions should be required

Previous times you stuck by me Relations fine undeniably Mutual trust and honesty The essential recipe There's two sides to a coin Opinions numbered many Yet resolve came with ease Compromised and regret - free Then the change of expression A unit of friends and the chance to be free Your thoughts on these cast a jealous light A consensus of hate to accompany A vindictive acid taste Flows from your chalice Valued friendships tainted Martyr of malice Then the final straw Violent intimidation Your self acclaimed pacification Brushed aside for self-gratification Blatant ignorance - martyr of malice

Looking from outside inwards A view to dumbfound the most outspoken minds Silent screams from an unfit Earth Battered and bruised with nowhere to hide Disasters man-made and natural Gradually pushing to absolute imbalance On the scales of survival Soon to tip in favour of extinction An unrelenting dioxin cloud Propelled to dispel our oxygen Slowly seizing up our lungs And choking the ground we depend upon Silent screams from an unfit Earth Battered and bruised with nowhere to hide Transforming aquatic inhabitance Overcome by cocktails of sludge and chemicals Interfering with life on which so many rely Then dumping our shit to economise Wanton destruction Environment in regression All reverse into decline Kiss this unfit Earth goodbye Goodbye Silent screams from an unfit Earth A future of provocation with nowhere to go

Talk of unity - a far cry from the slander and rivalry Why should we encourage what in fact is a circle of hypocrisy Impulsive jealousy Where's the so-called harmony? Internally untrusting Externally inspiring Assume your place above the rest The wisest of the less The knowledge you'll never possess Compensated for with single-mindedness Bored with life you turn to text Battleground for pettiness Pick at flies to justify Temper's raised - You wonder why? Why?? Supposedly accessible Come support our scene Just another target Harassed to the extreme

Forced exposure to create what is expected (To face) neglection is the price no one wants to pay Line in line, stereotypes perpetrated Similarity of negativity The chains that bind us grow stronger Break away from the pack of mindless dogs Taste the scent, realise ambition Life - a stagnant lair in which to lie Taste the scent, realise ambition The chains that bind us grow stronger A label to some, habits preset Faction alienation, bias hold the key

Mindsnare Reasoning poison in the vein Chasing the dragon who's frying your brain The shit that once gave you the high Now controls your escape from proverbial cloud nine Sad dependency - Brain-fried society Mindsnare All essence of being in turmoil Your white powder god brings life to the boil Forget all your family and friends Heroin becomes guardian till the end Sad dependency - Brain-fried society Jack-up Its powers of deception Seems to null all daily strain But just another fix Grip on reality fades out day by day

You come to us and criticise Without prior inspection Judge us as a waste of time An incorrect perception Just a noise - your shallow view An opinion I find misconstrued There's probably more thought in what we do Than a large part of what appeals to you Why should we? - Why the need to justify? Only in others' presence are you motivated to jeer and jibe Everybody has the right to opinionise But to us your pettiness is used to occupy your tiny minds Extremity retained - never fall into your line

Search for purity leads to insecurity Individuality an incapability Trapped within outside theories Ideals adopted, agreeable on basis Yet to question aspects a cardinal sin Should self-expression mean social loss of face Labelled unaware because you beg to differ Hiding behind a shroud of belief Staunchly involved, highly confused Confidence in your firmly lodged thoughts Yet take a back seat while others speak for you Should every single thinking moment Be saturated with political stance Striving for perfection Fear of group rejection Better to be at mental ease Than harbouring thoughts not mutually agreed The spoken mind and reasons why Dictation by others be denied without fail
