DYSTOPIA LYRICS

1. Stress Builds Character

I am so tired
Sometimes I feel so tired
I can’t eat, I can’t sleep. So tired.
The pressure builds and builds.
It seems like there’s no release.
The things I see go unnoticed by some, fill my eyes with horror.
Anger and guilt and frustration and depression make waking up every day harder and harder.
I work my fingers to the bone just to survive.
I got to get money so I can have a home.
So I can breathe, eat and live in this society.
I don’t even like money, and I got to work everyday just to feed myself.
God, it makes me sick.
I just wanna curl up into a hole and die, because this isn’t worth it.
I need a raise, man!
I can’t survive on this pay anymore.
I can’t live on this.
I’m hungry, and I’m frustrated, and I can’t eat, daddy.
God, I look for you to help, and I have seen no help.
I’ve seen no thoughts, no looks, no praise.
You don’t care. You don’t love me. I only love myself.
No one will love me like I love me.

Life's been swell now I want to die
My body it hurts me sigh after sigh
I call it torture you call it life
A slave to money and everything I despise
Like everyone in general
Fuck eat sleep destroy
Just about the only things you fucking enjoy
I am a disposable being
Who will fuck all life
I multiply and the air gets thinner and dirty
I take up space
I smell
I consume
But I produce nothing
I abuse
I have no reason to exist
The toilet's clogged in this world of shit
I breathe filth everyday
Living fucks up my brain
Why? Why did I wake up today?
My eyes are heavy
Why? Why must I see your face?
Your life is ugly
Why? Why did I buy into these things?
I don't want them
Tension. Tension
Frustration. Alone.
Tension. Despair. Tension
All these pressures on my life

2. Hands That Mold

hands that kill mold illusions of peace
their fucked up pseudo-security
destroy to give birth to technology
to quicken the killing of you and me and him and her

blind. us humans think we are so smart
creating challenges
how. our sky bleeds in your hands
it's nothing

build and build and build some more
industry fucks nature like some kind of whore
quest for invention intelligence gone too far
synthetic environment we're doomed from the start

and I guess we're all gonna die (my home)
and take everything under the sky (is nothing... to you)

skies they bleed infecting the land
oceans they vomit onto the sand
wind so foul, a putrid reek
animals they scream in disbelief

and I guess we're all gonna die (our lives)
and take everything under the sky (are nothing... just used)

humanicide // humanicide

black trees, dead seeds, dirt weed
how much longer do we have?

humanicide
human beings should have never evolved at all
your heart... your heart as cold as the concrete that you lay
your mind... clouded with the pollution that you make

hide... lies... from all of us, the ones you have chosen to die
smother our earth, blacken the skies
your quest for progress, convenient demise

man... kind... to whom are you kind?
the peace that you mold is a lie, a lie, all lies
our lives float rejected down the stream
they are nothing, not you or me

3. Sanctity

When Ed awoke on March first he was filled with a self-loathing he could not endure.

"I had no desire to continue living with all the problems that were inside my head."

Unable to make a living, at age 49, Alec walked into the woods near his house and shot himself.

"I have taken my life in order to provide capital for you, it’s purely a business sensation I hope you can understand that."

"I have to undergo the constant pressure from auditsis and it's more than I can stand, I just don’t have the energy to start over. I didn’t want to mess up the house so I’m back by the canoe."

Dr. Frank Galveston had his distinguished and productive career. He had a wife and kids; to all the world he appeared to have a rich and happy life. But at age 56 Frank walked down to his favorite beach in Pensacola Florida and shot himself in the head.

"Dearest Samantha, I can no longer endure the pain, I can longer endure the pain, I can no longer endure the pain. We have often talked about when a person's time is up, and mine is now."

My fucked up life

"I came home and found our son lying dead on his bed of a gunshot wound. He had his headphones on and there was an Ozzy record on the turntable so we called our lawyer."

"I’m angry I hate you, I also, of course I’m not too satisfied with myself, I’m not taking things very well, and I'm gonna blow up the whole thing, individual tanks of filled.. and a message maybe even stated explicitly, verbally, the individual says. I hate you, you’re an evil person I, uh, want you to, uh, jump out the window, or kill yourself, or shoot yourself, or make yourself a sacrifice to the deity, and uh, goes ahead and does it."

"I just looked back and got the for me and closed my eyes, and…"

Falling, falling from my oppression
God where are you now
Falling, falling from my oppression
God where are you now
Where are you now
God where are you now
Sanctity, the devil brought to me
And he told my fate
Sanctity, sanctity, sanctity, sanctity
Sanctity, the devil brought to me
And he told my fate
Sanctity, sanctity, sanctity, sanctity

4. Ignorance Of Pride

you killed again today
she was 12 years old
you killed her mother too
when she bent down to help her
and you killed again today
He overdosed on drugs
he was a friend of mine
I know that you don’t care
except for money and power
and the force to make everyone cower
the system makes its money off you
kill each other off just like they want you to

Ways to survive don’t involve killing your kind
poverty is colorblind
the systems fault not yours or mine

Kill again - for more respect
Kill some more - to make you look tougher
Kill again - but look who is losing
poverty is government made
Kill again - for more respect
Kill some more - to make you look tougher
Kill again - but look who is losing
stomping out your own fucking race
racism starts with a twisted idea
genocide starts with the squeeze of a trigger
both are easy to do
both are fucking stupid

5. Love / Hate

Hopelessly devoted to you…..
Hopelessly devoted to you…..

Oh I killed a girl once, it was no accident
Put the gun right to the back of her head and blew her brains right out the front
I was in love
I strangled mine
Did you love her?
It was OK, OK
Maybe I am a killer
Why should you care you just stay around here to fuck my mother and eat her food
Matt!
Oh ye’moves
Your are a fucking asshole, trust Tim, Tim
Motherfucker (Matt)
Food-eater
I’m gonna shove this up your ass
Why did you kill her?
She was talking shit
This is a comfortable pig, I remained celibate for you, I stood at the back of the cathedral waiting in celibacy for you with 300 friends and relatives in attendance
My uncle hired the best Jamaican caterers in the state; to obtain the 7 limousines for the wedding party my father uses his last favors with mad people…
hopefully, for my mother, my grandmother, my father, my uncle, and for the common good
I must kill now you

Am I looking masochist, am I looking to be tormented further
I was raging inside, there was, I was raging inside, there was this…. incredible energy
I hated her, I can’t get away from her, we’re still fighting
She’s literally, she’s like a puppet on a framer…and I entertainer, she knows all my buttons and I dance like a puppet with that pain, and I said she’s got to die and I gotta die
I cut off her head, and… and I humiliated her corpse
But I never hit her, I killed her but I didn’t hit her
We're Bikini Kill, And we want revolution!

And the transformer looked into my damned soul, and stepped back and ….the scene never end
He had pictures of guys getting hit, went missing , kids tied up and with marks on them things
I didn’t need no gun, I did mine with my hands, I was right there, I was right on top of her, I was face to face
I wasn’t even mad really, she looked too surprised, she was so, in a few minutes
her faced puffed out and it turned dark purple and she just stared at me
She couldn’t move
She couldn’t scream
I had total control of her
I had total control of her
It felt so real, she was dead there in front of me and
I felt so fucking alive

6. The Middle

[Instrumental]

7. Slaved Chains

rise the turmoil tides
the falling minds
decreed in lies
that show their pride

Pride. Pride. Pride.

disease of lies
that breed in minds
that hate reminds
bow down to authority
break your chains
you are slaved

8. Ruptured Silence

It’s easy to see
incentive to talk
staring at all
staring at me
where has humanity gone
I feel sick to open my mouth
visions are blurred
glances are exchanged
eyes connect
Speech neglect
we coldly walk away
a thousand thoughts
a million minds
a vocal box and a set of eyes
gifted with vision
communication
yet overwhelmingly blind
people are hurt
shouting and pleading
Communication doesn’t ever leave
down on my knees
I start to cry
who the hell are you
to question why
speak breathe
relinquish your apathy
seek conquer
release anxiety

Silence is weight that breaks our backs
and pulls our mental chains
silence will oppress us
And we’ll always be it’s slave
There’s no compassion
not any more
brotherhood smashed
like a roach on the floor
never the less
people like you
Follow like servants
follow like slaves
speak breathe
live see
quiet choke
die blind
speak breathe
feel release
I don’t feel
seek conquer
Release anxiety
find fuck
censor relax
seek control
confront your insanity
crush feel
silence slave

Live breathe
Speak free
Loud silence deafens me
seek ease
release it all
let it all go
silence will destroy us all
Leave your mark on life
Blah blah blah

9. Green Destroyed

with all the flaws of technology
we are forced to destroy
to keep with our "needs"
but our needs are superficial cause the best things in life are the things that
are free
solar energy is perfect
it's abundant and free
But they cannot sell the sun
so they pollute the air we breathe
if there's gas burning over that then there's money to be made
It doesn't matter if we choke
just as long as they're paid
humanity is digging it's own grave
from the master in his high rise
to his hunched over slaves
we are all to blame
we're all wasteful and greedy
In our own ways

Examine your actions retrace your steps
the oblivious fool is the fool who breeds death
You cannot attack the whole until you kill the fool inside
so much can be done
But you must first use your mind
you'll never be perfect unless you drop out of life
You're guilty just the same
We must realize we're either making things worse or helping things change…

there is no better place
save the earth
why all die in misery
Break the chain
we can't change in our graves
save the earth
And we're damned to count on you
Break the chain

10. Broken Shell

why do you rape my mind
Soul
Body
Fine
Life
My gift deceased
kill my only pride
die
Love in deceit
we live in sadness
silence
good bye
steal my soul
the torture was the same

11. Weed Of Wisdom

Rape consume exhaust abuse
rob the earth of fossil fuels
we kill ourselves with fossil fuels
Think we’ve tried we failed we die
With our hands tied
Can’t you see we have no choice
you lie about the true effects
Lies... expose the facts that you can’t hide
Please, don’t insult our intelligence
hemp is illegal cause it threatens your wealth
DuPont Exxon and a thousand other companies
Would rather see you die than lose money for your health
price of living
Funeral procession
Modern ecology
I won’t bow
I won’t bow and sit and sigh
cowards
the world goes to shit as you sit and cry
bigotry apartheid Jim crow laws
tools of prohibition to put hemp in its place
Put a black man in shackles
because he smokes weed and had a smile on his face
Fucking racists
fuel oil plastic
all from a plant that natures blessing
paper wood food
stop deforestation save this planet
Now, we must utilize a source that can be grown with ease
Save our habitat and stop killing wildlife and soil by removing trees
Land is in scarce supply and hemp roots help anchor soil
Which stops erosion nutrifies land while rainforests spoil
we must put aside myths and legends based on lies
Hemp the weed of wisdom will help wipe a tear from natures eyes

12. Sleep

searching for my soul
through chasms of my minds
longing my own desire
to make me apart of life
round and round this circle turns
never coming to end
hideous games played on my mind
driving me insane
This ring of painful delight
resides deep within my brain
Insanity comes so naturally
when my arms bleed
crossing the sky
deep within these dreams
crashing back to the sea
the sleep numbs my mind
From today’s reality

sleep
the dreams will come true
my life will be over soon
Sleep my child and dream
sleep
Your life is doomed
