running scared
in a world that’s theirs
whistling in the dark
screaming flesh not fair

singing hey
why can’t it wait
just a semblance of
just a human touch
just to write us off
hurts the heart too much

and I wish I could sell my soul
but the robots can make rock n roll

all my heroes are rapists
who won’t pay reparations
and my healers are fakists
and the path to their faith just
costs six easy payments
and if you act right away
they can throw in a savior
you can kill them today

well I can’t afford shit
and I would sell my soul
but the robots can make rock n roll
but the robots can make rock n roll

I am broke as shit
I would sell my soul
but the robots can make rock and roll
the robots have taken control
and were better off under control

i need a bath
need to wash the stink of human off

The Robots Can Make Rocknroll

this is how the story goes:
a man is torn apart
time’s catching up with him

and i’m living it

this is how the story ends:
a man caught up in myth
he gets a scrip for some happy pills
and he downs them with a fifth

he scribbles out all his final words
on a cold apartment floor
a vain goodbye to a wasted life

and i’m living it

to hurt the ones who love you
to hurt the ones who try
to love the sick and suffering
to open up your eyes

this is how it really goes:
a man gets out of bed
he shakes off grandiosity
to trudge the day ahead

accepts the flaws that he has to bear
accepts the waning years
accepts the pain of yesterday
and pushes through the fear

and every other hour or so
the pain comes creeping back
but it’s a dull modern pain

and i’m living it

and on and on and on

The Ugly Facade - Living It

ACT I: SCENE 6: SHEPHERD IN WOLVES CLOTHING

Shepherd in Wolves Clothing

Dontbelight Stripped 100521

Shadows on the wall Stuck in our caves Machines dancing in harmony with their masters  Waking to the fire The energy of slaves The dream violently burning in the disaster  No one can help No one can help No one can help This is something you can live through  No one can help No one can help No one can help This is something you can get through  We built a world where every thought was onscreen Demanding regimes to change faster But in our youth we were too quick to build the guillotines Cause winning was all that ever mattered Off with our heads!  No one can help No one can help No one can help This is something you can live through  No one can help No one can help No one can help This is something you can get through  There was a time when all compassion dissolved And nothing got solved The world had devolved turning backwards No one held to account for all the death and all the despair The pace of extinction tiptoeing faster  No one can help No one can help No one can help This is something you can live through  No one can help No one can help No one can help This is something you can get through  God bless a miracle obscene The bottomless greed, the would-be kings The country on fire that pulses with youth The disparate wealth and the failing of truth  (Writing on the wall again)  (Make our mother great again) (Survival is my only friend) (Terrified of what may come)  And I'm standing in line And I'm learning to wait For the bitterness of nothing And I I cannot stay  And no one can help I’m so stuck in self I prayed for a crisis And god answered well

Energy Of Slaves (No One Can Help)

Priceless smiles of emptiness. 
Politics are what you do best. 
Kiss the foot and shake the hand 
of those you dare to call your friend. 

Kindness is only just a dream. 
Nothing you wear is what it seems. 
Pouring my heart out to a brick. 
So sick and tired of being sick. 

Seldom listen. Always heard. 
And friend is just a fucking word. 
Blow a kiss. Ignore my tears. 
And waste my time for ten more years. 

Broken hearts and bloody knees still call the master whom they please. 
Broken hearts and bloody knees are not what i was born to be. 

Kindness is only just a dream. 
And nothing you wear is what it seems. 
Pouring my heart out to a prick. 
So sick and tired of being sick. 

Love to talk about yourself. 
Love yourself above all else. 
Never once did lend a hand. 
And that is why i'm so jaded. 

Kindness is only just a dream. 
And nothing you wear is what it seems. 
Whoring my heart out to a prick. 
So sick and tired of being sick. 

You took what you wanted from me. 
You've gone to suck the bigger beast. 
You'll lie and cheat the whole damn way. 
And that is why i choose to stay. 

No one else would lend a hand. That is why im so jaded. 
Alcohol became my friend and that is why im so jaded. 
Just in case you ever thought to ask.

The Ugly Facade - Sick (Insurrection Remix)

“Whether you are man or woman, rich or poor, dependent or free, happy or unhappy; whether you bore in your elevation the splendour of the crown or in humble obscurity only the toil and heat of the day; whether your name will be remembered for as long as the world lasts, and so will have been remembered as long as it lasted, or you are without a name and run namelessly with the numberless multitude; whether the glory that surrounded you surpassed all human description, or the severest and most ignominious human judgment was passed on you -- eternity asks you and every one of these millions of millions, just one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not, whether so in despair that you did not know that you were in despair, or in such a way that you bore this sickness concealed deep inside you as your gnawing secret, under your heart like the fruit of a sinful love, or in such a way that, a terror to others, you raged in despair. If then, if you have lived in despair, then whatever else you won or lost, for you everything is lost, eternity does not acknowledge you, it never knew you, or, still more dreadful, it knows you as you are known, it manacles you to yourself in despair!”

It Cuts You Up Slow (remaster1)

tired of commerce. i disappear in the commerce. always a day late and a dollar short. i am not here.

Won't you save me
 Hold me gently
 I have suffered 
Lift me upward

Stuck in the riptide 
Smile by the wayside 
Help me I'm drowning 
Wave barely frowning

Can you hear me calling
 Hold me up I'm falling  

Feign me a rescue
 Thought I should test you 
Went as expected 
You unaffected  

Can you hear me calling
 Hold me up I'm falling 
And my lungs are filling
 Was the past worth killing  

Don't act like you ever 
Don't act like you ever 
Don't act like you ever 
Don't act like you ever 

You never showed up to save me so
 I guess I'll just have to let you go 
I thought that I knew what friends were for 
You don't got to save me anymore

(I'll forget you)  

You went and you left me all alone
 One day you will reap what you have sown
 I'll sing it until it's set in stone
 I still got my goddamn microphone

(I'll forget you)

You never showed up to save me so
 I guess I'll just have to let you go
 I thought that I knew what friends were for 
You don't got to save me anymore

 One day you will reap what you have sown
 I'll sing it until it's set in stone
 I still got my goddamn microphone

Apropos, the saint should show 
As soon as I stand on my own

Apropos, the saint should show
 As soon as I stand on my own

===================== 

by some mutated contract 
we buy this broken dream 
we gain a short admission 
to sell off everything 

scend 
scend 
the savior of us all 

your scapegoats are the sacred 
your pilgrims are the purge 
their mission manifested 
to kill and rape and scourge 

scend 
scend 
the savior of us all 

scend 
scend 
the savior of us all 

we give them right to own us 
we buy from them our lives 
our children made the debtors 
forever paying tithes 

DID WHAT YOU TOLD ME TO 

we live our lives in boxes 
with little glowing screens 
we fill our blood with toxins 
so we can deal with things 

and sometimes more than often 
the bitter masks the taste 
the fruitless failed reflection 
"what if it's all a waste?" 

scend 
scend 
the savior of us all 

fuck your savior 
invisible gods do nothing 
now raise your voice and raise your fists 
for your children’s sake 

stop defending 
the ones who’ve made you suffer 
no one will save you but yourself 
make no mistake 

fuck your savior this and savior that 
it’s always been in your hands 
remember you whored it out 
to a bunch of greedy fucks 

but don’t you worry 
nothing’s forever 
the time of kingdoms is over 
it’s time to take back the pound of flesh they took from us 

raise your fists up high 
raise them for all the reasons why 
there’s no savior you will have to save yourself 

raise your fists up high 
raise them for every dirty lie 
there’s no savior for the ones who made this hell 

raise your fists up high 
raise them for all the reasons why 
there’s no savior you will have to save yourself 

raise your fists up high 
raise them for every dirty lie 
there’s no savior for the ones who made this hell 

let us pour our heart out to greater things

(king of cups)
=========================  

Hey old man, you falling tired?
 Your faithless lovers look beside 
The king they crowned will sleep in dirt again  

Hearts weigh heavy on the throne 
When god can't speak to claim his own 
And soon the subjects will revolt again

 You have eyes for it, it it 
He's in Debt to it, it, it  

Hey old man with furrowed brow 
They told me I deserved the crown 
Now hand it over perhaps I'll let you live  

You want it all until you have to start believing
 You'd like the power but you know that it's deceiving
 You come unarmed and you expect to leave here breathing

  Now shut your mouth
And take your leave  

You want what's mine? 
Get in line you motherfucker
 Or save yourself
and get out  

You want the crown? 
Get in line you motherfucker 
Or save yourself  

You want it all until you have to start believing 
You'd like the power but you know that it's deceiving 
You come unarmed and you expect to leave here breathing  
Now shut your eyes and take your medicine  

You want what's mine? 
Get in line you motherfucker 
You're right on time 

Come one 
Come all

  I know, I know
 I know
I know your side
 I told my side
 I know the king you crowned will sleep in dirt again

NEVER GONNA GET IT
SO YOU WON'T TRY
NEVER GONNA GET IT
SO YOU MIGHT AS WELL DIE

Here Be Dragons

Energy of Slaves (Bare)

There is a price I pay for every heart 

Beat 

Wasted 

all the days away 

When we were a part 

Sweetly 

missing the space we made 

Gently 

Kissing 

goodbye the days 

There is a place I built 
To suffer the storm 
Beneath all of the shame and guilt 
Becoming unborn 

The sky will crack 
I’ll sit on the moment 
There’s time to wait 
But what if ok never comes? 

Only the foolish ones 
Fly to the sun 
So let’s stay in the dark and wait 

But I am not done 

And I got bored 
I pondered the question 

Enough 
Jump in 
You are not where ok comes from 

I know you’ve kissed the sun 
You’re not the only one 
I know you’ve come undone 
You are not where ok comes from 

And god will say 
You’ve pondered the question 
Enough 
Jump in 
without hesitation 
and you 
will know 
the peace you’ve been seeking 
my friend 

you are not where ok comes from

Where Ok Comes From

Everything is happening 
To the corpse we’re inhabiting 
The hollow grace 
The chosen face 
The padded place 
We’re happy in 

The happy potion does the trick 
So none of us does get too sick 
In happy cycles 
Cyclicals 
In loops of laughing 
Hahahahahahahaha 

You paint the world 
the broadest strokes 
We’re cornered in 
We start to choke 
And all two colors of the rainbow 
Drown us in the apathy 
(THE HAPPY HAPPY) 

Sweet fucking rat race 
‘Tis of thee 
Conveyor belt of misery 
An empty sold out factory 
Where life is happy 
All the time (hahahaha) 

Is it everything you are? 
Is it everything you wanted it to be?
