Cosmic Darkness
04:53
|
|||
New Dawn of Man for every sentient being
Industrial crusades from which there is no fleeing
Submit to the new Divine, protecting Leviathan
No longer are we assailed from the womb ‘till you exhale
My beating heart, filled with fear and greed
Born in competition
The pyramids hierarchy
Priests of global revolution, from which there is no fleeing
Self-ordained to judge the past, blessed with seeing
Planetary subjugation, genocidal insemination
Exploitative, un-empathic interaction
As suffering became an abstraction
My beating heart, filled with fear and greed
Born in competition
The pyramids hierarchy
My beating heart, filled with fear and greed
Life's a competition
Bring your body to the feast
Peering through the depths - The cosmos mirrors your soul
Peering through the depths - Dark entropy and death: behold
Peering through the depths - The smog mirrors your soul
Peering through the depths - Dark entropy and death: behold
Divining greed in every sentient being
Fuelling the engine from which there is no fleeing
Divinely ordained:
“Self interest: the engine of progress
So take pride in you inner cosmic darkness
Self interest: the engine of progress
Flowing from the fountainhead of darkness”

Endless proxy warfares etched across the lands
Private arms deployed
Its: “Obey our command”
Perverse incentive killings
Bow down to the borderless corporate leviathan
Mars the God of War has taken corporate form
We march forever more towards the killing floor
Mars the God of War has taken corporate form
Creates its own demand
The Corporate Leviathan
Politically expedient: No U.S. blood in the sand
Now a lavine of covert warbands spread across the lands
Fighting not for flags, but paid by the states
Growing and festering
Globally they proliferate
Mars the God of War has taken corporate form
We march forever more towards the killing floor
Mars the God of War has taken corporate form
Creates its own demand
The Corporate Leviathan
Wars without states as private forces rise
Westphalian disorder
This world is a symphony of cries

The Stars, Already Faded
04:44

Pulled together by gravity
Fading, changing, dying, reborn, changed
Clouds form in violent confusion
Formless from birth
My Memories as p l a n e t s
Pulled together by gravity,
Fading, changing, dying,
Is Knowing so simple?
Childhoods form
in violent confusion
Formless from birth
Our Memories as p l a n e t s
Stardust given form
Surveys its distant cousin
The universe observes
How the stars we are made from already faded
A brief network of light
improbable folly, held together by slaves of the passions raging against the night
….Although
The stars have already faded….
My life’s form
is violent confusion
I was Formless from birth
My Memories as p l a n e t s
Slaves of the passions
Serve and obey
Slaves of the passions
From the night
Until the stars fade away

Hypocrisy: Weaponized
05:18
|
|||
My World is just
Ordained to be mundane
I dig up walls to guard my tired well-groomed mind
Weaponized Hypocrisy Fortify Fortify
Weaponized Hypocrisy Stay in line Stay in line
Weaponized Hypocrisy We’re all calm
Weaponized Hypocrisy Don’t make me have to change
The light, it hurts my eyes
Disrupts my selfish vision
I dig up walls to guard my tired well-groomed mind
Weaponized Hypocrisy Fortify Fortify
Weaponized Hypocrisy Stay in line Stay in line
Weaponized Hypocrisy We’re all calm
Weaponized Hypocrisy Don’t make me have to think
Investing our hopes into a non-reality
Ideas and dreams into a non-reality
Defending a life in passivity
So we live our lives as if it was the end of history
Resigning to a hollow selfish dream
Resulting in the end of history
So we live our lives as if it was the end of history
Suppressing the haunting ideal
Weaponized Hypocrisy Fortify Fortify
Weaponized Hypocrisy Stay in line Stay in line
Weaponized Hypocrisy We’re all calm
Weaponized Hypocrisy Don’t make me have to think
Don’t make me have to change
Investing our hopes into a non-reality
Ideas and dreams into a non-reality
That was a life in passivity

Debt Crush
05:08
|
|||
Secretive mandarin banking control
Total death of demos’ soul
Enslaving the populus - indefinitely
Twelve stars on the cape of the just, covers lies and dust
The weak suffer what they must
You took our name in vain
Now we toil in defeat
Faust stole our name
Now we toil in defeat
Cartels united through coal and steel crush rights without appeal
Speculative capital immunity
No law
Looting the ECB, the US treasury
As debt colonies toil in defeat
You took our name in vain
Now we toil in defeat
Faust stole our name
Now we toil in defeat
Technocratic dogmatists enforce the vile maxim
Technocratic dogmatists without a mandate
Fueling the reaction
There’s a storm coming
Which role will you play?
To satellite oligarchs demos concedes
Troika conceals financial deceit
Debt purgatory ‘till death
Twelve stars on the cape of the just, covers lies and dust
The weak suffer what they must
You took our name in vain
Now we toil in defeat
Faust stole our name
Now we toil in defeat
Technocratic dogmatists enforce the vile maxim
Technocratic dogmatists of the neo-feudal age

Merchants of empty dreams
Preaching self-loathing to a people under siege
Reactionary flank of the neo-liberal attack
Preaching the markets dream, while the lobby locks in the monopoly
Merchants of empty dreams defend the cannibals version of reality
Merchants of empty dreams
In societies of pyramid schemes
Coaching to cannibalize
While “industry”* is subsidized
Merchants of empty dreams
In societies of pyramid schemes
We’re looking up to the stars sending rocket ships with cars to mars
Retreat into a personal tactic
Demobilize - by now it’s automatic
Defer to free will when you place the blame
Talk about free markets while you rig the game
Deregulate, speculate, bank-run, bail-out, buy-back, global amnesia
While the charlatans defend the cannibals version of reality
Merchants of empty dreams
In societies of pyramid schemes
Coaching to cannibalize
While “industry” is subsidized
Merchants of empty dreams
In societies of pyramid schemes
We’re looking up to the stars sending rocket ships with cars to mars
Do you see how the knife gets turned?
Stock buy-backs while our countries burn
Do you see how the knife gets turned?
Remember hopelessness is “self-learned”
Retreat into an empire of illusion
Selling markets as naturalized
Long since they’ve been feudalized
Flaming fake opposites and culture wars
Really they’re vultures in a battlefield of carnivores tearin’ skin from bones
Fake finance owns our homes, tech lords our minds
Thoughts come to a standstill
Sleight of hand guides our will
*Under the Parasitic Leviathan the concept of “rent extraction” is censored. Today finance, real estate and monopolies are labeled “industry”.

Monuments

Preview peer-reviews through private eyes’ backdoor
Create disease to produce the cure
Hypocritical oath secures - Trusting patients fined
Kept sick for the corporate bottom line
Doctors sell disease
Science fills the need of hungry coffins with holes to feed
Doctors sell disease
Science fills the need
Demoted to filling coffers for power and greed
Monuments to obese Americans
Monuments erected with overpriced insulin
“Objective” means “disregarding ideals for careers”
Funding is the determining axiom of the fields
White robes for PR & fame doesn’t hide the shame of tainting science with power games and private aims
Hypocritical oath secures: Trusting patients fined
Kept sick for the corporate bottom line
Doctors sell disease
Science fills the need of hungry coffins with holes to feed
DSM ( Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, now discredited)
Creates disease: science as a trick
Sedated souls can’t flee from a world that is sick
Monuments to obese Americans
Universities now lap dogs to the ideology of ‘more’

Pillars

Global Parasitic Leviathan with tentacles in every heart
The monument to our inner cosmic darkness
Pillars of opaque power
Rising beyond the reach of the earthbound
Pillars of opaque power
Stretching beyond our grasp
(We reached into the realm of Gods)
Now the darkness reaches back
Now the darkness seals our fate
Don’t fixate on hope
Pillars of opaque power
Rising beyond the reach of the earthbound
Pillars of opaque power
Stretching beyond our grasp
(We reached into the realm of Gods)
Now the darkness reaches back
Now the darkness seals our fate
Do you believe the pact is sealed?
Do you believe the priests of seeing?
Self-evident is your dark heart
Fearful greed lives in you and me
So give in
End your days in the pyramid’s hierarchy
Don’t fixate on hope
Just resist
