ANOMALOUS LYRICS

1. Cognitive Dissonance

Father! Where have you gone?
We need your eyes in times of filth
Instill the shame, provide the blame
Invoke the guilt
Because the flesh takes on a life of its own

I know that I can’t be left alone
So be my hands, and be me eyes, and be my soul

Hands fed to the churning gears of industry
Devotion shifted, subverted
Legions frothing at the mouth
A populace now enslaved by the temporal

Compassion cannot be bought
Salvation cannot be achieved without suffering
Absolution cannot be sold

His message must be heard
Christ thrown on the assembly line
Mass production
His message must be heard
At the behest of His word

Hypocrite! Whited Sepulcher! Liar!

The blood on your hands is washed away by your divine lie
Ravenous!
Run through your lines to appease your huddled masses

Ravenous wolf! Miscreant vermin!

I know that you never had a soul
From this point on, to watch you die will be my goal

Counting the earnings stolen from the weak and broken
The dissonance of manufactured faith left unspoken
The struggle for utopian morality spawned dystopia

Ravenous wolf! Pharisee!

2. Metastasize

Impenetrable void covered with lies
Chaotic burning inside
It will rise

Trauma sustained grows into contagion
Perniciously, it’s invading

Pale sheath veiling the cavernous eruption
Lacerate, expose this farce
Facade
For all to see

Feel the need to spread the seed
Infiltrate infection

Crawling in black corridors lurks the reaper of dignity
Entering the sewer with innocent curiosity
But leaving with the seeds of corruption implanted

Blooming into an exquisite shield
The leather around the neck and the bolts built firmly into the skull
Ripped and stomped apart

So far beyond redemption, I can’t be saved
With vehemence I contaminate and realize fulfillment

Lured into a foul apparatus
Injected was a code for the crux
Soon the need will fill you, to break apart the delicate structures

Watch the circuitry dissolve into a viscous puddle
Exposing the tender meat contained inside
This blood tastes right

Displaced retribution
Pray for my exemption
Immortalize this sickness
Share with you malignancy

How can I shed before it spreads?
How can I triumph over my own tendencies?
To cut through the darkness and reach into the light

So it feeds, slowly
Imploding, deeply
Lacerating
So it seems it has me kneeling
To spread pestilence of the seedling

Wretched seedling
Invading every breath I’m breathing
To birth repellant pudenda

Struggling to fight the onslaught
But sinking into my pit of pathology

Wretched seedling
Invading every breath I’m breathing
So it seems it has me kneeling

Searching for somewhere I can point my finger
No, it’s no one’s fault but my own

Nothing can be done to stop the malevolent cycle
Our fate is sealed

While I fade it will gestate
metastatic growth will draw breath

As I melt, it rears its head
If it lives I will be dead

3. Merged

4. Subliminal Servitude

Humiliation sold by the pound
To shrewd narcotic kingpins and dealers of promised happiness
All brought to you by the architects
Of cathode ray reality as they properly fatten our delusions
Until they develop mouths of their own

Feed me. Inject the propaganda
Reduce their suffering through the somniferous radiation
Conceive another thoughtless carbon

Attenuation of empathy
Through force fed apprehension and principle

Manipulation of pulpous clay
Perspective and reason will perish and decay
Emissions of conformity
Subliminal slavery

Contempt!
Lying in disgrace is the mind that does not seek truth

Remove the blinders, unveil your eyes
Shed the skin anew

Ignorance is strength. Power in numbers
Plug into the network that destroys all subversive thought

Insubordination
Step in line
Conditioning instruments control your mind

Taxidermy, lifeless eyes
Disembodied, the blood’s runs dry
Painted facade
Hate and greed dressed in disguise

Cause and effect
Stuff those holes with mesmeric diversion
Narcosis
How those ornaments dance and shine
Mystified by the serpentine

There are shocking new developments that you can’t afford to miss
Nursing that fear into obedience

Oligarchy!
The power that slipped through the hands of the comatose masses
Into the few

Silenced!
Silenced is the voice of the ones who can’t see through lies

Sacrifice my privacy because I need to feel safe

Okay then, you just wait
‘Till the lens is turned on you
Treated like a criminal
They watch everything you do
You’re sufficiently subdued

Subdued…criminal

The only way to rule is through force and intimidation
Through your weakness they stand to gain
Leaving a trail of poverty without blame

There are shocking new developments that you can’t afford to miss
Holding onto our willful ignorance

5. Revelations

Choke.
End of an era. New age of desperation
This fool, this victim of his own device
Let open the gates of all the teeming demons yearning to be free

Show me the place without greed and deceit and Ill show you
A fantasy

Can you feel our impermanence looming?
In the clock of infinity we are so inconsequential
A veritable breath. A passing glance, a blip
The blink of an eye

Your status and your precious things
Your money and security
Mean nothing when the walls are crumbling
The earth will shake, the waves will break
And in mounds well be rotting

In the eyes of the nebulous we are so reprehensible
Lets flush it away
Consume it all until we eat ourselves

Suffer! Its my only restitution. To watch the masses scramble
To watch the process begin
Depopulate. Reduction. A cleansing of the cancer
Detoxification.
Lets flush it away

Choke
Choking on the excess of your senseless human greed

The broken backs you're burdening
To maintain all your precious things
Its unending slavery
And I'll be happy to watch it all rot away

Show me a place that is truly divine and Ill show you a place
Without mankind

Can you feel our impermanence looming?
