Definition of Insanity
02:03
|
|||
|
Trying the same thing again and again
Expecting different results
Struggle to improve a corrupt system
Despite the surmounting faults
Not enough capital to stand a legal chance
The country’s for sale
Electoral fraud
To think it can change
In the confines of law
Is the true definition of insanity

Cultural Divide
00:45
|
|||
|
Opinions air as exhaustion nears
A constant struggle to avert my ears
Reciting memes, quoting pop news
Perpetuate a biased view
The same impediment, left against right
Never grey area, just black or white
A name for each, separate by design
The byproduct is a cultural divide

War is a Racket
01:37
|

|
(taken from ‘War is a Racket’ by Gen. Smedley Butler)
War is a racket, it always has been
Most profitable, the most vicious
Profits are reckoned in dollars
And the losses in lives
Conducted for the benefit of the few
At the expense of the many
Out of war a
A few people
Make huge fortunes
To hell with war

Lessons in Gaul

August 19th, 1944
The Germans are on retreat
Tie up the flank
Move up the line
We have to force a defeat
Henning Linden, Felix Sparks
Names that mean nothing to
Those with no heart
We as a species are doomed
To repeat the process as many
Times til we see
Concentrated to a single mass
The liberation, freedom at last
Sieze the camps
Freedom
Our children will remember this
Our grandchildren will be proud

Bite My Tongue
01:22
|
|||
|
Literal interpretation
In casual situations
Hindrance in communication
Misconstrue the application
Crude words taken out of context
Quick to accuse, free speech suppressed
Wrongly perceived, change the meaning
Forced to succumb, biting my tongue

Routine
01:11
|
|||
|
Living the same routine day after day
Becomes tedious no matter the archetype
Contant facade of the perfect contentment
Bullshit is bullshit no matter the hype
I've grown a fucked routine
I assume a callous guise just to get through the day
Fantasize about the time I can break away
Automatic, latent panic, medicated haze
Stifle instinct, bite my tongue, let my mind decay
|

Recluse
02:06
|
|||
|
Burned out, working my life away
Transform to something that I hate
Withdraw for failure to relate
Get high, stay numb to dull the pain
I grow worse everyday
I let my mind decay
I let my body waste
I lock myself away
Recluse

Merchants of Doubt
01:19
|
|||
|
How can we accept the bullshit we're told?
Everyone's for sale, virtue bought and sold
Undermine the truth, dictate how to think
Only self defense, question everything
To quick to believe everything you're told
Your fragile mind is being molded like clay
Too many sources spread misinformation
Stall progress on changes we need today
Merchants of Doubt

Line the Pockets
00:52
|
|||
|
Trust the doctor, swallow the pill
Increase the dose to pad the bill
Foster habit, make an addict
Fatal results of greedy ethics
Epidemic, systematic overdose
Line the pockets of the ones who push it
|
||||

Don't Mangle My Body
00:46
|
|||
|
Center my heart
Don't mangle my body
The ones who scapegoated
Shall be judged
Is this enough?
Of course it's not enough
A public execution is not enough
Present destruction
Future devastation
Bloody from my ears, my eyes, and my mouth
I've given up, You know that I have
All that is left, The evacuation of my bowels
Writhing and seizing on the man-made vine
This is what I get
Cover my children's eyes
Daddy has sinned and now it's time to die

They say: "Music does not exist in a vacuum". I find shit like that hard to believe when bands like Socioclast exist... This music sounds like it was truly created in a vacuum of hell, abyss, and spacetime.
