Story Behind the Song
This song was composed as a companion piece to a short story that I wrote by the same name.
Lyrics
Build me and Ill exist to resist when what youve broken,
should never be fixed. Never be fixed.
Technology cant break your fall,
consequences are the same for one and all. One and all.
How can you still punish the memory?
Since time moves so slowly now. So slowly now.
Concrete to collapse and no more problems
Is just one more problem. One more problem.
Hows this burning world keep turning?
Is by mistake so Im learning.
Build me and Ill exist,
Build me and Ill resist:
The frozen minds of your perfection,
The standing still of direction.
Build me and Ill exist,
Build me and Ill resist:
With the subtlety of mass destruction,
Raining concrete like the wind.
Build me and Ill exist to resist,
the black noise of peace that you call silence.
Imperfection falls, with the weight of planets
reducing one and all. One and all.
How has it come to be, your too blind to see?
Chance and concequence for all its beauty. All its beauty.
Now Im the last hope vanished without a trace,
a manufactured slave of a slave race.
Hows this burning world keep turning?
Is by mistake so Im learning.
Build me and Ill exist,
Build me and Ill resist:
The frozen minds of your perfection,
The standing still of direction.
Build me and Ill exist,
Build me and Ill resist:
With the subtlety of mass destruction,
Raining concrete like the wind.
When lateral direction is dressed in the stripped skin of progression,
Eventually the dampness of disease begins to sink in.
