The desire to feel is a common mistake in life Degenerative will; slowly beaten down with time You will not last when only the objects survive You are consumed within the jaws of paradise Casting out emotion there's no time to feel Toothed cogged machines that churn maim and kill You can't stop what's coming You've known this all along Join the martyrs that die for nothing Or slaves that don't live at all You will know peace when your foolish idealism dies The vultures feast on your ultimate sacrifice Fastening the tourniquet around your neck Embrace tranquility in your last act You can't stop what's coming Now face this on your own No violent new beginning No tyrants overthrown You have no time to bleed for weakness must never be shown And you must not ever be caught in an action of love The sickening reality that nothing will ever be done Plagues us eternally and grows now out of control Joined in our apathy; immersed in a festering world You were not meant to be conscious of what they have done Earth and sky cradle the disillusioned and abandoned souls Cowering rats that feed on the shit and piss over the earth
