Electrified

OBEY 

IGNORANT MINDS IN BURIED HEADS
PACIFIED PUPPETS OF THE MARCHING DEAD
FULL OF SHIT AND WAITING TO BE FED

CRIMINAL MINDS PLAY POLITICAL GAMES
THE POOR MAN DIES AND THE RICH MAN GAINS
SPREADING HATE AND FANNING FLAMES

JUST KEEP YOUR HEAD DOWN LOW
DON’T FIGHT THE UNDERTOW
YOU CAN’T RESIST THEY WILL PERSIST
UNTIL THEY OVERTHROW

THEY PLAN TO RULE YOUR MIND
THE TRUTH’S NOT HARD TO FIND
BENEATH THE COUNTLESS LIES
THEY PARALYZE  DEHUMANIZE

OBEY
YOU WILL OBEY
 
MEGALOMANIACAL LUNATICS
HIGH ON POWER AND NEED A FIX
CRUSH THE WORLD WITH POLITRICKS

TO REALIZE THEIR OBJECTIVE GOAL
OF DOMINANCE AND COMPLETE CONTROL
THEY BREAK YOUR WILL AND STRIP YOUR SOUL




THE ANSWER

I’VE BEEN FILLED WITH EMPTINESS BEFORE
AND SEARCHING FOR THAT ALL ELUSIVE DOOR
AND YOU WHO COMES TO PREY UPON THE WEAK
WITH PROMISES YOU KNOW YOU CANNOT KEEP
CANNOT KEEP

I DON’T NEED YOUR LIGHT
TO HELP ME FIND MY WAY AGAIN, LIAR
CAUSE’ I KNOW WRONG FROM RIGHT
AND I CAN SEE THE TRUTH ASCEND 
THE ANSWER IS INSIDE OF ME

YOU WOULD HAVE ME THINK I’M INCOMPLETE
AND RELISH IN THE PAIN OF MY DEFEAT
BUT I CAN SEE THE EVIL IN YOUR WAYS
AS IT CREEPS INTO THE LIVES THAT IT DECAYS
IT DECAYS... 



PAYBACK

I KNOW YOUR KIND 
OUT OF SIGHT OUT OF MIND
TRIED TO HIDE FROM THE CRIME
BUT I’M HERE TO REMIND YOU
THAT PAYMENT IS DUE 

WHAT DID YOU THINK 
ALL THE BODIES WOULD SINK
LEFT YOUR SINS IN THE PAST
BUT LUCK DOESN’T LAST IT’S TRUE
NOW YOUR SCREWED

IT’S BEEN A LONGTIME COMIN
PAYBACK IS A BITCH

A TYPICAL TALE 
HOW YOU THOUGHT YOU’D PREVAIL
BUT THAT SHIP DIDN’T SAIL
AND YOUR SCHEMES HAVE DERAILED
MISCONSTRUED THE MAGNITUDE

IT’S HARD TO ACCEPT 
AND YOUR FEELING REGRET
BUT TIME WON’T FORGET 
AS THE SUN STARTS TO SET ON YOU 
SHOULD HAVE KNEW




MILLENNIAL ZOMBIES

SOMEBODY LEFT THE LIGHT ON
YET NO ONE SEEMS TO BE HOME
IN A CYBER HYPNOTIC TRANSFIXION
THE ZOMBIES OFTEN ROAM

THEY CLAIM TO HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS
BUT THEY HAVEN’T GOT THE SLIGHTEST CLUE
CAUGHT IN THE NET OF INFINITE LIES
WHERE THEY BELIEVE EVERYTHING TO BE TRUE 

WELCOME TO THE WALKING DEAD
MILLENNIAL ZOMBIES
DIGITIZE THE BRAIN IN YOUR HEAD
MILLENNIAL ZOMBIES

A DIGITAL DEMON IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND
A PIXELATED AFFLICTION
YOU FOUND A NEW RELIGION AND THE MEANING OF LIFE
IN A SOCIAL MEDIA ADDICTION

WILLING PRISONERS OF PANDORAS BOX 
IN A WORLD WIDE WEB OF DECEPTION
BEHOLD THE RISE OF THE ELECTRIC GOD
BEYOND REACH BEYOND CONCEPTION 




REALITY CHECK

YOU’VE DONE THE BEST YOU FEEL YOU CAN
BUT YOUR STILL A BEATEN MAN
LIVING IN A WORLD YOU JUST CAN’T UNDERSTAND

ALL THE LIES YOUR EYES HAVE SEEN
SEEMS LIKE YOUR LIVING IN REAL BAD DREAM
AND YOU JUST CAN’T WAKE SO YOU ONLY SCREAM
BECAUSE YOU WANT THE WORLD TO HEAR YOU

BUT NO ONE GIVES A SHIT ABOUT YOU
SO FACE THE FACTS AS GIVEN
BECAUSE ONCE YOU’RE DOWN THEY STEP ON YOU
SEE THE WORLD WE LIVE IN

YOU WILL ONE DAY WAKE TO FACE WHAT’S REAL
A WORLD WHERE MOST LIE, CHEAT, AND STEAL
EVERY MAN FOR THEMSELVES IS THE NEW IDEAL
REALITY IS WAITING

THERE’S ANGER IN YOUR HEART
AND HATRED IN YOUR EYES WHEN YOU REALIZE
THE INNOCENCE OF YOUTH IS RAPED BY BRUTAL TRUTH
AND YOU REALIZE...




DON’T WAIT UP 

SORRY REALLY NEVER SEEMED TO CUT IT
AND BEING SORRY ONLY BRINGS ME DOWN
SO SORRY WON’T DO ME NO GOOD
I WOULDN’T CHANGE THINGS IF I COULD
AND SOMETIMES WHAT’S LOST 
DOESN’T REALLY NEED TO BE FOUND

SO HERE’S SOME MEMORIES TO THROW AWAY
JUST BURY THEM DEEP FROM THE LIGHT OF DAY
THEY’RE WEIGHING HEAVY ON MY BACK ANYWAY

SO DON’T YOU WAIT UP FOR ME
I’M NOT THE MAN YOU THOUGHT I WOULD BE
I’M JUST A CLOUD IN YOUR COLD BLUE SKY
SIMPLY PASSING BY 

AND SURELY AS THE DAY WILL RISE
IT SHOULD COME AS NO SURPRISE 
WE GOT TO LET IT BE  
WE GOT TO SET IT FREE      
SO DON’T YOU WAIT UP FOR ME

I KNOW IN TIME I MAY LIVE TO REGRET IT
BUT SUCH IS THE LIFE OF A ROLLING STONE
AND LIKE A STONE THAT GETS THROWN IN THE SEA
I’LL COME TO REST ON THE BOTTOM EVENTUALLY  
ONCE FREE BUT PROBABLY ALL ALONE
 
I GUESS I’M JUST A RESTLESS SOUL WITH UNOBTAINABLE GOALS
TRY TO FIND MY WAY AGAIN
I GUESS I’M JUST A GAMBLING MAN WITH A LOSING HAND
TRY TO MAKE A FINAL STAND

SO DON’T YOU EVER HANG YOUR HOPES ON ME 
THAT AINT SOMETHING I CAN GUARANTEE  
IF THERE IS ONE THING I KNOW FOR SURE
I’LL BE LOOKING FOR THE NEXT OPEN DOOR




HIGHER

WE HOLD THIS FRAGILE WORLD
WITH TREMBLING GREEDY HANDS
AND WE MAKE SHORT SIGHTED PLANS
SO WE’VE LOST SOMETHING INSIDE

YET NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE 
BUT EVERYONE CAN SEE
THE PROBLEMS THAT COME TO BE 
ARE RISING WITH THE TIDE

PEOPLE HATING PEOPLE
OVER WORDS IN ANCIENT BOOKS
TOLD BY LIARS AND DIRTY CROOKS
ONLY OUT FOR SELFISH GAIN

THE ANSWERS THAT WE SEEK 
CAN’T BE FOUND IN THE LIES THEY SPEAK
FOR THE TRUTH IS IN US ALL 
AND TOGETHER WE RISE OR FALL

WE HAVE TO FIND ANOTHER WAY
OUT OF ALL THIS MADNESS AND DISMAY
THE CLOCK IS TICKING AND WE HAVE SUCH LITTLE TIME
WE’VE GOT TO DRAW THE LINE
NOW IS THE TIME TO CLIMB

WE’VE GOT TO GET HIGHER
SO MUCH HIGHER
LIKE THE RISING SUN WE’VE JUST BEGUN
WE’VE GOT TO GET HIGHER

ELECTRIC GODS ARE MOLDING MINDS
THROUGH LUMINESCENT SCREENS
WHERE THEY DIGITIZE YOUR DREAMS
AND MANUFACTURE REALITY

THROUGH CHAOS AND CONFUSION
WE’RE LOST IN THIS ILLUSION
AND ACTUALLY BELIEVE 
IN THIS MAD INSANITY




ELECTRIFIED

TOOK A TRIP AROUND THE MOON 
AND YOU THINK IT ENDED WAY TOO SOON
I KNOW YOUR GOING BACK AGAIN 
SO I’LL SEE YOU NEXT TIME WHEN YOU DESCEND

YOU LIKE IT BEST LOOKING FROM ABOVE 
IT’S THE CLOSEST FEELING YOU CAN FIND TO LOVE
SO YOU TAKE THAT TRIP ANYTIME YOU CAN 
IT TOPS THE LIST ON YOUR DAILY PLAN

HEAVY HAND IS COMING DOWN NOW
CHARTING OUT A VOYAGE ON A SEA OF LOST SOULS
HEAVY HAND IS POUNDING DOWN NOW
MARCHING TO THE RHYTHM 
AND YOU KNOW YOU’VE LOST CONTROL

SETTING YOUR SIGHTS AND YOUR READY TO RIDE
ON A ONE WAY MISSION AND ABOUT TO COLLIDE
DON’T NEED NO PENANCE WHEN YOU’RE DAMNED INSIDE

BECAUSE YOUR ELECTRIFIED

YOU ARE ELECTRIFIED

NOTHING COULD EVER HOLD YOU DOWN
YOU GOT TO KEEP ON TREADIN’ OR YOUR GONNA DROWN
BETTER TO BURN THAN TO FADE AWAY
SO YOU SET THAT FIRE ALMOST EVERYDAY

ALWAYS SEARCHING BECAUSE IT’S NEVER FOUND
YOU CAN’T SPREAD THOSE WINGS IF YOUR UNDERGROUND  
TAKE YOUR PLACE UP AMONGST THE STARS
JUST TO FALL BACK DOWN AND COLLECT NEW SCARS




FOOLISH PRIDE

I TRIED TO FIND A PLACE IN THE SUN
BUT I GOT BURNED BEFORE I’D EVEN BEGUN
I EVEN TRIED WHILE IT WAS SETTING
CAN’T SPEND TIME ALWAYS REGRETTING
SO I’M WAITING ON ANOTHER ONE

WELL I GUESS I’M JUST A FOOLISH MAN
WITH A DREAM AND A FOOLISH PLAN
YOU SEE FOR LIFE TO BE WORTH LIVING
IT TAKES SACRIFICE AND GIVING
TO FALL YOU HAVE TO TRY TO STAND

SAVE ME FROM MYSELF 
I SHOULD HAVE LEARNED TO LET GO
A LONGTIME AGO

BUT I WON’T BEND GUESS I CAN’T
COMPREHEND WHEN I LOSE
I ALWAYS CHOOSE 
MY FOOLISH PRIDE 
FOOLISH PRIDE 

NOW IF I’M GONNA CRASH AND BURN
IT’S JUST ANOTHER LESSON I’LL NEVER LEARN
CAUSE I’VE BEEN BROKEN, BEAT AND BATTERED
AND IT NEVER REALLY MATTERED
SET ON THE THINGS THAT I YEARN

I’M NOT GONNA PRETEND
I’VE GOT A LOT OF WOUNDS THAT WON’T EVER MEND
BUT STILL I’M GONNA RIDE THIS TRAIN TO THE END
YEAH, I’M GONNA RIDE THIS TRAIN TO THE END 




BURIED IN BLACK

A MILLION DEVILS CRAWL AROUND IN MY HEAD
I’LL FIGHT AGAINST THEM UNTIL THE DAY I AM DEAD
I’M A FRIED WIRE 
I’M A FUNERAL PYRE

I KNOW WE FALTER AND I KNOW WE ALL FALL
BEFORE WE WALK WE’VE GOT TO LEARN HOW TO CRAWL
IT’S A SAD CRIME 
BECAUSE THERE’S NO TIME

YOU KNOW ALL I SEE IS BURIED IN BLACK
WEAK FOUNDATION IS STARTING TO CRACK
I JUST WANT TO ESCAPE FROM THE TWILIGHT ZONE
BECAUSE I’M SLIPPING TO THE BOTTOM LIKE A SINKING STONE
ALL I SEE IS BURIED IN BLACK  

I SAW THE LIGHT BUT IT HAD BLINDED MY EYES
I HEARD THE MUSIC AND IT TURNED INTO CRIES
TRY TO KEEP CALM 
I FEEL LIKE A TIME BOMB

I HEAR IT TICKING IN THE BACK OF MY BRAIN
I’VE GOT A FEELING BUT IT’S ONLY THE PAIN
THE PAIN INSIDE 
TRIGGERS A LANDSLIDE




WORLD OF FRUSTRATION

ONE STEP FORWARD AND TWO STEPS BACK
ALWAYS KEEPS YOU SEARCHING FOR THE THINGS YOU LACK
LIKE A MAD DOG YANKING AT A RUSTY CHAIN
YOUR TRAPPED IN A ORBIT AROUND AN EVER GROWING DRAIN

SO YOU HOLD OUT HOPE LIKE A IGNORANT DOPE
YOU GOT TO KEEP THAT FLAME ALIVE
AND YOU LEARN TO COPE BY IGNORING THE SCOPE
KEEPS EXISTENCE JUSTIFIED 

THERE’S ALWAYS ONE MORE SHOT WHEN IT’S ALL YOU GOT
THE LIES CAN KEEP IT REAL
IT’S ALL YOU NEED TO PLANT THAT SEED
WHEN THE DEVILS THERE TO MAKE A DEAL

DAMN THIS WORLD OF FRUSTRATION
CAN’T CLIMB OUT THIS HOLE
DAMN THIS WORLD OF FRUSTRATION
IT’S TAKING A TOLL

EVERYONE’S SHOUTING AND NO ONE HEARS
IT’S BEEN THE SAME OLD STORY FOR UNTOLD COUNTLESS YEARS
YOUR JUST POOR LOST FOOL ON AN ENDLESS CHASE
THERE WILL BE ANOTHER POOR FOOL TO TAKE YOUR EMPTY PLACE
