DRILL (Couillou) listen

Forward march, about face
Serve the hand of divine grace
Whether or not it’s what you choose to do
Your breeding thoughts you can’t avoid
Try not to feel paranoid
Because they always will be watching you

Do you want to close the door
Or do you want to go
Forget what you came here for
Do you want to know

All alike, all the same
Took eighteen years to get this way
Give or take a few who dared to change
Watch conformity get bent
As we choose to be different
Accepting compliments like weird & strange

Do you want to close the door
Or do you want to go
Forget what you came here for
Do you want to know

EARTHWORM FEVER (Couillou)

Above the ground lies another world
Sleeping in dirt the sunlight’s hard
And I’ll wait ‘til the night comes ‘round
Rise up and turn it upside down

‘Cause at night
It’s alright
Pain reliever

I see my face through another door
And I’ve seen the dark and twisted core
Much like the devil in your night
I’m gonna tell you everything’s all fucking right!

‘Cause at night
You can’t fight
Earthworm fever

GOD'S HEAD (Couillou, Tremper) audio sample

Ask me not
It’s too late for the answer, it’s too late for you now
You’ve lived your life wrong for too long
There’s no survival once your life’s in hand
It’s all because of you
You took this gift I gave you and you used it wrong
Your sentence is quick
Just return your life to sender and release your soul
So you fall

You made it wrong, I’ll make it right
Bow down before your father, ashamed
You made it wrong, I’ll make it right
Bow down before you
No longer wake, forever sleep

Waste of life, waste of time
The taste of money washed your options away
Time’s ticking faster you’re never getting past the man
He’s making you pay
So you fall

You made it wrong, I’ll make it right
Bow down before your father, betrayed
You made it wrong, I’ll make it right
Bow down before you
No longer wake, forever sleep

IGNITION (Couillou, Tremper)

The calm before the storm
Not lit but getting warm
It's like a reactor, I've got to reactivate
And tear this mother down

Strapped up in uniform
Ammunition is set to go
Launch site, take flight
Green light 5,4,3,2,1...go!

The lights of horror glow
Short fuse is set to go
Ignition is awaiting me
I blast off to eternity
Can't say nothing but go cat go!

KILLING ME (Couillou, Tremper) audio sample

You don't see nothing
You're like a blind old man
Though you look before you walk away
Monkey see, monkey don't do a thing
But be a hero, save yourself
The trouble it would take to
Stick your ass on the line for me
Tell me why...

You don't hear nothing
You're like a deaf old man
Though you're hearing every word I say
Listen up, listen up!
Stop pretending that
Everything will be OK
Because my name is Guilt
And I'll follow if you walk away
Tell me why...

You could've saved me
But you just turned your head
Stand back, keep your hands clean
And leave me here for dead
I guess you're killing me

You don't say nothing
Like a scared old man
Keeping quiet makes it go away
Say you will, say you won't be a man
By doing nothing you have done it all

So while you're safe and sound
Wipe the sweat from your brow
Wash the blood from your hands
Because you know you've done me wrong

You could've saved me
But you just turned your head around
Stand back, keep your hands clean
And leave me here for dead
I guess you're killing me

MADNESS CYCLE (Couillou) listen

What the hell is going on
Why do I need a reason
to justify my every word
I can see there is no pleasing

They’re always on my back
I owe ‘em this, I owe ‘em that
Here’s another piece......BE GONE
Don’t you know they’re never wrong

Madness Cycle

Keeping warm inside a shell
Society’s a stranger
Feeling threatened all the while
When there is no danger

Things get tighter everyday
I warned them all to stay away!
But the closer they became
I realized I was to blame

Madness Cycle

STOP this madness now
My reason’s become shady
Before I go insane...
‘cause I’m already crazy

Madness Cycle

MUMMERY, VAGARY (Couillou, Tremper)

Lean on me, a human armchair, nothing more
Plant your feet firmly in my dresser drawer
Rest your mind, your lights are out & so are mine
I can't wait to see the sun rise again
My ears are always ringing
Am I the subject of a foreign conversation
If I knew better I would believe nothing I've said
And wear earplugs instead

And I can feel as if it were only yesterday
I'm on top all the way
If I can feel then there's really nothing more to say
I'm miles away

Rest your mind, your lights are out & so are mine
I can't wait to see the sun rise again

And I can feel as if it were only yesterday
I'm on top all the way
If I can feel then there's really nothing more to say
I'm miles away

QUARANTINE (Couillou, Tremper)

In this world you call your own
Where you’ve conformed
under wings of your own
Where your reactive mind is always
telling you to shut it out

Oh, it’s unethical
And you know it
And yet you’re always
going forward

You might find this evil
in the truth at night
When will you understand
that’s what evil men do
Believing truly it’s divine command

Oh, it’s unethical
And you know it
And yet you’re always
going forward

You can’t judge the soul
Make you see it all
False sense of control
Watch you take the fall
You can feel it
You can feel it

Oh, it’s unethical
And you know it
And yet you’re always
going forward

REACTIVATE (Couillou) listen

Out of the night into the headlights of your mind
There lies a secret and you can’t keep it
They’ve etched a number on the inside of your head
You’re hearing lies, don’t act surprised

Long live the servants, long live the dreams
Long live the lost and chosen who realize that
Life ain’t what it seems
Now take your places, where you’re assigned
When will you realize your life has been
Run like this the whole time

Out of the night into the highbeams of your brain
You’re moving faster, you’re changing lanes
Your mind is full you feel it burning in your soul
Kicked into gear you’re on a roll of self control

Long live the servants, long live the dreams
Long live the lost and chosen who realize that
Life ain’t what it seems
Now take your places, where you’re assigned
When will you realize your life life has been
Run like this the whole time

Into the light you’ll overcome your urge to hate
You’ve charged yourself and helped your mind
Reactivate

Long live the servants, long live the dreams
Long live the lost and chosen who realize that
Life ain’t what it seems
Now take your places, where you’re assigned
When will you realize your life has been
Run like this the whole time

RIBCAGE (Couillou, Tremper) audio sample

In time I'll let you know
How far the feelings go
Anytime at all
To reap these holy sores
Time to take the word
And dream of all I've heard
Anytime I call
To wake this feeling soul

I've sworn to hide my feelings take them to the ground
Six feet deep seems appealing never make a sound
My blood has drained, my ashes born of flame
Ignite new life so I can share with you, the pain within my cage

Tear down these walls around me, break free from these chains
Release the truth inside, the lies no longer reign
My conscience clear, I've nothing more to fear
Make no mistake that when my body lies my soul will surely rise

It's time I let you find
The feelings deep inside
Anytime I lied
Was like a suicide

SEDATIVE (Couillou) audio sample

In the sound of my headspins
Feeling lonely again
Lies my body in a sack of sweat
Save me someone can you help me yet...Help me

I’m alone in my own
Crying little embryo in stone
Far from worlds of sin
What the hell is this
Lost my mind in the sun, in the sky

So when you’re cursed and you’ve caught me alive
Now I believe that everyone is holding on inside

Feel it’s time to come out now
For much too long and the rent’s overdue
And I can’t see how
My burning eye can’t find the hole
I wanted out because I have no more control

So when you’re cursed and you’ve caught me alive
Now I believe that everyone is holding on inside

I’m my own damn self
Child of the storm
Make me understand
Take me by my hand

SICK AND WIRED (Couillou, Tremper)

Wired loose, wired hot
Two loose cords condemned to rot
Positive to negative
No more impulse left to
Give improper data
Misinformed debase the face of my reform
An outlet detected, permission rejected
My battery's frozen my system lights warn

Sick of face, sick of lies
Slows my dull harmonic cries
Will of the weak, will of the wind
Slowly detects my status ends
Communication with a world's misinformation
My body's depleted, another one's needed
Encasing a shell with a critical fuse
Uninspired & I'm tired
I'm sick & wired

Don't wait too long
Don't strike it strong
If the level's low
Then the fuse won't blow

Rewire all the information
Take the soul from the body of the nation
Think fast this is reformation
I'm sick & tired
And I'm feeling something burn
Uninspired & I'm tired
I'm sick & wired

SKINSIDE OUT (Couillou) audio sample

There are some things you don't show
Inside, inhuman
The fact to be, the face you see
Is not completely what you know
Expect the outside to be solidified
Hardened shell encased the hell
Until you've gone and turned me

Skinside out
You turn me skinside out
You turn me loose

And you think you've seen it all
The pain inside you crawls to know
The blood that shows
You'll get your chance to turn me

Skinside out
You turn me skinside out
You turn me loose

SKULL MACHINE (Couillou, Pieper) listen

Skull machine racing out across the sky
Compelled to spread his wisdom through his deadly eyes
Skull machine raging out to take command
All those who disagree with him will understand

Something is coming

Skull machine racing out across the lake
Drowning all the souls who cry for heaven's sake
Skull machine is gonna let you choose your faith
Refuse to choose his word and you have chosen fate

Something is coming

Skull machine racing out across the land
His eyes portray the sadness of his one demand
Cleanse the dirt & filth from earth & sweep it clean
Condemn our lust for violence and tastes obscene

Something is coming

TEAR (Tremper) audio sample

Damned ‘cause you do
Damned ‘cause you did
Damned you threw your life away
Why can’t you see
Forgot just how you used to be

Tear out the inside
Start things over
Fixing everything you do...

All the time
You waste what’s in your mind
Chasing things you’ll never find
Run while you’re blind
You’re leaving better things behind

Tear out the inside
Start things over
Fixing everything with you

Tear out the inside
Start things over
Fixing everything with you

WHAT YOU NEED (Couillou)

My mind feels like an ocean
So deep, blue and cold
All calm upon the surface
While beneath...

I’ve washed up on the shore
And crawled upon the sand
And dried myself of water
And expect...

Well I’m always last to know
But I know what you need
And it’s always time to close
Well I know

When I come back to the velvet
The velvet like touch around me
In the hands of the angel
who’s kept them all clean
Make them dirty
turning them over to me

Well I’m always last to know
But I know what you need
And it’s always time to close
Now I know

Well I’m always last to know
But I know what you need
And it’s always time to go
Well I know

Well I’m always last to know
But I know what you need
And it’s always time to go

WITHOUT ALL (Couillou, Tremper)

Believe there’s always something
that you find good to go
Could lead to ecstasy
in a way that you may never know
You’ll find me understated,
You’ll find me dedicated
You won’t ever see it come back to me

Can’t live without all
I can’t leave it alone, no
Can’t live without all
I can’t live with it all

I’ll come, feel the need
I got you though I’m never there
Can’t see, ride on victim
It’s gotcha I don’t even care
I’m burning it brighter,
I’m taking his fire
I’m gonna make it back so
Gimme that, gimme that, gimme that now

Can’t live without all
I can’t leave it alone, no
Can’t live without all
I can’t live with it all

Can’t live without all
I can’t leave it alone, no
Can’t live without all
I can’t live with it all

ZERO REFLECTION (Couillou, Pieper, Tremper) audio sample

Zero reflection, reveal the possession
A power few can understand
Wearin' you down, tearin' you down
I can see you're dying to take my hand

See through the night
Sleep through the day
Steal shadows lost in darkness

Like the rat & the wolf
Night shadows will engulf
My omnipresence too much for you
You're never alone

The angel with five heads
Shall cut through the darkness
And save you all
But this is a myth and
The soul you are with will fall

See through the night
Sleep through another day
Steal shadows lost in darkness

My love for you,
As sharp as razorblades
Free the blood from your neck
Immortality

Through nine generations the blood of relation
Feeding my bleeding need for disease you see
It's black, it's white, it's dark, it's light

See through the night, I can see everything
Sleep through another day
Steal shadows lost in darkness

Like the rat & the wolf
Night shadows will engulf
My omnipresence too much for you
You're never alone
