Story Behind the Song
This song is mostly about venting frustration over a few things...
Lyrics
Watching as they claw my security to shreds
And wrap it in cellophane
and shallow seeded thoughts,
I cannot breathe
Open your eyes to lust
Close your mind
and give unto me
Shut out the world
Breed, shove, shovel, shop,
die and fade away
At times I can barely restrain the avalanche
baring down
Pounding, digging, screaming
howling cold wind, and jagged ice in my face
Whispering, taunting,
ticking, tapping,
t o c k i n g,
shouting,
This is all there is...
Vomit hypocrisy and spit out the lies
reflection of every thing you despise
Living inside your skin and your thoughts
averse to freedom your mind slowly rots
Pain no more pain
going insane
pop culture fix
for all the hypocrites
Living through others
TV is our mothers
new god in wealth
medication achieves mental health
Sex and lust are exploited
and feelings imported
to make us feel ugly and lacking
both purpose and crafting
of anything more than average
You're not anything
But I've got a metal shell
It helps repel the thoughts of doubt
From inside out instills a sense
of arrogance
And wraps me in ideals so thin that together
I drown
Hypocrisy provides security and justified
mental homicide in soul conformity
Moral authority rather spirit decay
As divinity they portray just a matter of
ritual
Actions are mechanical while thoughts are a
facade to please their hollowed god
Worshipped by the blind as they revolve and
they grind in the metal machine
The empty magazine, in the barrel of society,
as the bullet humanity
Going
Down
