My future looms The specter's speaking tomb The feedback loop It appears when you say it's name It feeds on self awareness and it grows from my carelessness It's trapped inside, if I let it out it dies I see disaster from a mile away I cross my fingers and I try to obey The rules I said to follow on the eve of attack I've had enough, I want my life back Got to be careful not to feed The irrational insatiable Dread Machine It's then a ration of panic that waters the seed The irrational insatiable Dread Machine Changeless palpitations and my vision blackening Find the cars, and a gauze, searching desperately I gave it up for knowledge but I was a cyclops from the start Running blind, out of time, terror in my heart I played it once and it decided to stay Fuck you I tried it and my shame is on it's way Got to be careful not to feed The irrational insatiable Dread Machine This generation of panic's what waters the seed The irrational insatiable Dread Machine Slowly erodes your self esteem The irrational insatiable Dread Machine So surrender our forces unseen The irrational insatiable Dread Machine Got to be careful not to feed The irrational insatiable Dread Machine Got to be careful not to feed The irrational insatiable Dread Machine It's then a ration of panic that waters the seed The irrational insatiable Dread Machine Slowly erodes your self esteem The irrational insatiable Dread Machine So surrender our forces unseen Into the mouth of the Dread, Machine
