Only Robots 04:43
Punk, thrash, aggrotech Politician on the decks Stick your keyboards up your arse It's not scene to play guitar Black death rivethead Gothic neo-classic trad Hardcore dancefloor Darkwave disco doom Pick a side, bunker down And find out who's the enemy now Music is worth more than this Divisions are society's Be your own identity Only robots need to think in binary So many claiming wisdom But everybody's floundering more or less Each tribe promises freedom Except in how you think, speak, act and dress Like an infant seeking Mother Switching one cage for another Be your own identity Only robots need to think in binary Only robots need to think in binary Only robots need to think in binary Is there a God above Or is there just oblivion in the end? Or is there something else Our minds could never start to comprehend? The scope of your reality Is nothing to infinity Be your own identity Only robots need to think in binary

Evil wears many masks None more dangerous than a mask of virtue Evil that you put away Building, brooding, waiting to consume you Hypocrisy is your only friend Your one defense against your own true nature Justifying your every move So you think that you're better Pray you never see yourself without your tinted glasses Pray your sanctity is all that you believe Deny your demons at your peril You shut them deep inside and feed them with your pride Deny your demons at your peril Lest they ever get out Dopamine slowly welling up Until it bursts out in a huge explosion Adrenaline disconnects your brain Speeding you right to your self destruction Convince yourself that it's all OK As you head into a downward spiral Justifying your downfall Think you deserve no better? Pray you never see yourself without your tinted glasses Pray your sanctity is all that you believe Deny your demons at your peril You shut them deep inside and feed them with your pride Deny your demons at your peril Lest they ever get out

Paper Army 04:28
Building power from your false friends An illusion of the next big thing Exalt your bland mediocrity Everybody's liking but nobody's listening Be the Lord of the wasteland In a world built on waste Artistic mutton, go purchase a flock Integrity is the cheapest commodity But fairy gold turns to lead with the sunrise You can't fool the world forever When you get called out on all of your lies Your paper army won't be there to help you A desperate play for attention So anxious to be a star What kind of person would be King for a day? Well, that's the kind of person you are. Be the Lord of the wasteland Be the King of Shit Hill When your face is forgotten and your money's all spent The music will continue on still, without you. 'Cause fairy gold turns to lead with the sunrise You can't fool the world forever When you get called out on all of your lies Your paper army won't be there to help you Your paper army Your paper army won't be there.

Our biggest fear Isn't that we're powerful beyond measure Our biggest fear Is that we're shitty, shitty people Raise your hands if you think you're the good guys Make some noise f you think you're the good guys I say "Yeah!", you say "We're the good guys!" The good guys The good guys So much better than those guys Our biggest fear Isn't that we're powerful beyond measure Our biggest fear Is that we're not the heroes of our own screenplay That we might not be the ones that save the day Or have the smartest lines to say Is that OK? Raise your hands if you think you're the good guys Make some noise f you think you're the good guys I say "Yeah!", you say "We're the good guys!" The good guys The good guys So much better than those guys Are we on the side of angels, Or on the side of demons, Or are we just sitting on the side? Raise your hands if you think you're the good guys Make some noise f you think you're the good guys I say "Yeah!", you say "We're the good guys!" The good guys The good guys So much better than those guys

Monsterise 05:04
Humanity consumed in global animosity Killing and dying in someone else's name It's not our differences that send us off to war But the things that make us all the same Fledged from a flight from freedom Each generation monsterised Rebuilding God in their own image A book, a higher power A paradigm, a utopia Fame, beauty, wealth, power Deify anything I cannot tolerate this situation any longer I cannot suffocate the beast inside my brain Red mist descending Empathy ending Make me a monster to kill We are all equal They're all the same We are all equal They are all the same The age of energy needs fuel to feed the hungry machine Mineral rules animal Vegetation sacrificed Fire ants combusting to keep the engine turning Hate, fear, pride, envy Deify something! I cannot tolerate this situation any longer I cannot suffocate the beast inside my brain Red mist descending Empathy ending Make me a monster to kill

Edith Alone 06:43
You ran a tight ship back when the children were growing up Under your feet They had to be broken, or else how would they ever learn The done thing The weak can't appreciate The loneliness and necessity of strength You stand alone And then they had the audacity To grow up as themselves Forgetting who they are Associating with 'Not Our Kind Of People' They had to be left to die They'll soon come back To beg for your forgiveness You stand alone What do you stand for Now that the world you ruled is shut outside your door? Mighty on your throne But not even the strength to pace the floor Consumed with being right And getting righter every day You stand alone You stand alone You sit alone You lie alone You die alone... What do you stand for Now that the world you ruled is shut outside your door? Mighty on your throne But not even the strength to pace the floor Consumed with being right And getting righter every day You stand alone What do you stand for Now that the world you ruled is shut outside your door? Mighty on your throne But not even the strength to pace the floor Consumed with being right And getting righter every day You lie alone You die alone.
