Sorrow
Album • 1992
A humans thirst can never be quenched Too much is never enough Due to humans weak mind Resistance is unbearably tough Humans can not suppress their primal urges Even in order to preserve their existence In this enlightened age Humans know what behaviour is safe And what will lead to their own demise The public ignores the facts Instead they blame the scapegoats To rationalize their acts Putting Your life in someone's hands The ultimate in naivete Why would one be so trusting? Why could You be so stupid? Another's reassurance of safety Supplies you with false security Since the beginning of time Humans have altered their sanity First an occasional diversion Then a constant necessity You need chemicals to live Chemicals need you to kill The risk of one's actions Can be greately reduced Make a decision Inconvenience or death Govern Your life by intellect Not by instinct

Anger and bitterness growing I'm not always feeling this way But as time's end draws closer Pain's a larger percentage of the day To seek an answer for my grief I must realize from the start I'm trying to feel compassion For a species with no heart Misunderstood, I've tried to be good But You think You all know me Unknown to You, all that I do Has meaning You probably can't see Judged by looks, when You are the crooks Because You steal my emotions Within my state, there exists much hate Forced into me by Your notions Undetected sadness, my worst enemy Forces tears, nobody sees You leave me no choice But to despise all Your worth You cause my pain Never will I give in

Fools! Stop waving Your flag And clean the shit off Your glasses Freedom of speech, a government lie To calm and quiet the masses Freedom of speech exists If what You say is accepted by the majority One will quickly lose That right when they are part of the minority All popular artists are the same This is no coincidence Maybe the public would not respond to Deviants That is an incorrect inference People with money and power are blessed But they can fund and promote Subversive ideas they have intentionally Suppressed To insure the safety of status quo If one's ideas pose no threat They are the ones to succeed Monetary backing they will get By the claws of corporate greed True freedom of speech Occurs when all ideas Are given equal viewing To the general public Censor art Suppress reflection of society Censor thought

Rejoice at the mound

Prejudice, does this word apply to you? Categories, most likely to be friends With someone just like You Are You a human, or do You rely on Separative adjectives? Pride (Vox By Billy) Why do You take credit For what You were born into? Do Your genes give You an advantage? Favoritism Taking care of Your own kind Continuing Your own kind Words SAy what You mean Mean waht You say Hatred, afraid to accept People different from You Afraid to rethink Your own values Peace, it won't happen Until barriers are eradicated

Time and time again Throughout the centuries How many times Must it be repeated? A countless number Of treatise And all too few Have absorbed their meaning Regarded as prodigies But You ignore the messages Of these few Perceived as honorable And You can't find The inner strength To take to heart Our responsibilities And You have seen The results from afar Of perpetual neglect Without a trace Of empathy So it will continue That the words of wisdom Will be ignored Leaving us back Right where we started Wallowing aimlessly In a world of ignorance
