lyrics

Today I woke up unknown
Too cold inside my bones
Children voices in unison
Order me to obey!

Got up compelled by this steel noise that hid deceit
People lining on the street, like the perfect machines

Far away broken clouds of gray of the thickest smoke
Chants of promise they evoke to this human machines

Screen by screen… Frame by frame…
Until we all only think the same
Another pill I’ll be ok
Just what I need to take this pain from me

Crumb by crumb… Greedy fly…
I have the best product you can buy
I mean the key to your misery
Just what you need to take that pain from you

Smoke illness in my brain, scrape it from me
I want to choose my pain, humanity…

I had to follow them, didn’t even question it
Maybe I’ll admit defeat, like the perfect machine

And far away broken clouds of gray of the thickest smoke
Swallowed up the muted frown of this human machines

Page by page… Black and white…
So we can all keep a little light
Another pill I’ll be fine
Just what I need to choke this pain of mine

Brick by brick… Build a hive…
I have the cure that you need to thrive
I mean the key to a greener life
Just what you need to sooth that pain of yours

Smoke illness in my brain, scrape it from me
I want to choose my pain, humanity…
