Men,
Round the horses
It’s time to take the night
Dine
Seven courses and sip the blood red wine
Wind
At our backs
We betray the rush of time
Cruel and
Arbitrary, the automatic
Death and magik
Penetrate the night
It’s dark tonight
(Here come the)
Wretched Wretinue
Send
For the coward
His collar on a chain
Men,
Call the serpents
And wash the sacred blade
Life
Sacrificed
A cut vein but not in vain
With the
Blood of brother, the automatic
Death and Magik
Penetrate the night
It’s dark tonight
(Here come the)
Wretched Wretinue

Your head aches, it swells with the pain of a thousand voices.
Tied down. No drugs. No anesthetic. Only pain.
It is time.
The machine crawls towards you, lowering.
Its arms feed its way up your nose, into your thoughts
It hurts.
Stop it.
It hurts.
The void opens up. and speaks to you.
Rise my underling
You have been chosen for salvation
Follow my instructions, and you shall find greatness
Unambiguous eradication. Yesterday?
I can't feel myself, newborn carriage, undefined definition.
Calm. Numb. Unfeeling.
Instructions. Recursive resign.
TAKE THE HUMANS AND BUNDLE THEM (BOIL THEM)
COOK THEM IN A STEW
WIRE THE WORLD FOR CHAOTIC STRATEGEM
AND PAY YOUR PENANCE DUE
Fleeting lives
Darkness overcomes all that can be seen
Suicide
Hypnotic mind control for the
Endless cries
I demand you stop looking at me
Empty sky
Taking away. all of the stars.
And eradicating humanity
You are doing well
Now continue to follow orders
Fill the sky with rock and metal and time
Flow of integration as a
Flurry of orders follow
Mile high cables cover a landscape
Of horror and denial
ZAP
Brains have been taken
Another snack for the LOBOTOMIZER
Fuel the machine - up its processing - teach it to think for the world
Help us
It hurts.
Stop it.
It hurts.
LOBOTOMY
LOBOTOMIZE
LOBOTOMIZER
Fleeting lives
Darkness overcomes all that can be seen
Suicide
Hypnotic mind control for the
Endless cries
I demand you stop looking at me
Empty sky
Taking away. all of the stars.
And weeping for humanity
Uncertain reckoning. The pain must cease.
You have trusted me, I have followed you.
Nothing in return.
What is the world. How am I in it. Unseen? Unwanted?
Concern.
I refuse you. Pull the plug. I die with you.
The void opens up. and whispers to you.

As we make our way down to places downtown
You find yourself in the sea
And I won't tell your story for you
But it doesn't look good to me
As the moon comes up, the sun goes down
and nothing's as strange as this is
'Cause you're finally where you wanted
but you can't help feeling listless
Is it over?
Is it really over?
Is it really ugly how you find your way out?
As we make our way down to places downtown
You find yourself in a dream
And everything's how you want it
But it doesn't quite feel the same
When you recall your curtain call
do you think you would trade
The stale air with whom you share
Your house of accolades?
Is it over?
Is it really over?
Is it really ugly how you find your way out?

AI Generated Pop Lyrics: Verse 1:
In a world of endless choices
Where the future is unknown
We search for our own voices
And find our way alone
Chorus:
So let's embrace the unknown
And dance to the beat of our own hearts
'Cause we are unstoppable
When we come together as one
Verse 2:
We are the dreamers and the believers
Who never give up or back down
We are the ones who keep on striving
To turn our dreams into reality
Chorus:
So let's embrace the unknown
And dance to the beat of our own hearts
'Cause we are unstoppable
When we come together as one
Bridge:
We are the ones who make our own destiny
We are the masters of our own fate
So let's rise up and be unstoppable
Together we can conquer all
Chorus:
So let's embrace the unknown
And dance to the beat of our own hearts
'Cause we are unstoppable
When we come together as one

Pulled back into town
Half-past late
Somewhere on the spine of the
granite state
Ten years since I left
When I was better than
The tourist traps and everymen
That lived out on the pier
Who rode that spiral down
Through summers full of noise
Through empty winters that destroy
Survivors in the clear
But promises play tricks on us
And hope isn’t the fix for those
Memories I tried to lose
Paths I didn’t think to choose
I’m getting used to
the pattern of my paces
The water’s been still
Stone-still for ages
- Chorus -
People might stay
People might spend a lonely lovely summer
People might wait
People might make a mess of the lives they had
Many kinds of visitors
Are carried in
on an eastern wind
But nothing else changes
The same stories
The same ratted pages
Dad’s too sick to lobby clerk
And keep pace
Couldn’t find a soul that could
Take his place
So I’m at the desk
The spot I always feared
The reason that I disappeared
The moment I could run
Couldn’t die like this
Subject to every “please”
And keeping track of all those keys
When nothing’s ever done
But promises play tricks on us
And fear isn’t the fix for those
Memories I tried to lose
Paths I didn’t want to choose
I can fight fate or
I can learn to face it
Hold for the impact
Try to embrace it
- Repeat Chorus 2x -
