lyrics

freedom is a state of mind
blind man can see that
six degrees of separating self from the feedback
leave it all behind for somebody else to find
Spy vs. Spy designs
that are kind of amusing
yet kind of confusing also
welcome to the vacuum where you can fall slow
and analyze that for ages
and document the whole process through the various stages
12 stepping, self-help as a weapon
finding me seems to threaten you, i reckon
Frankenstein method, using pieces of everything
i will ring the alarm until it's deafening
so hear me out as i go through the motions
causing a commotion composed of the broken dreams
i've collected and hand-selected to be reapplied
lifelong dreams, they will not be denied
confide in what i manifest
i suggest everybody else do the same
Chief and TheDoomsdayDevice will maintain
through the dying embers of the eternal flame
in the same vein i've accepted that reality
there is a conflict with the normal mentality of everyday people
the misplaced passionate
this is the ignition designated for the actionless

and i keep it like a secret fit for a king
this dominion is a delusional thing
the paranoia agent is out looking for his payment
for safety's sake you should vacate the pavement
thought i made an investment
yet the danger that was inherent
never seemed like it was suggested
wish that i was fluent in reading between the lines
and more sympathetic to the hearts and the minds
outside of my immediate sphere
light years of advancement
leads to isolated disenchantment
the satellite of lovesickness
we're waiting for the change like a litmus test
educated guessing
cruising for a blessing
living on the verge of addressing this obsession
owner of the golden moment
like "rewind selector!" for double doses of that nectar
call me the bone machine collector for the time being
sight-seeing for kicks
there's no agenda i could recommend you
and why would i teach the new dogs the old tricks?
syndication is the new downward spiral
carbon copy entertainment has gone viral
it's information containment
witness that infokill that is all too real

shut my mouth and paint me red
swear on my figurehead
even if my mama and my papa got bled
you will not bleed me
exterminating angel
this will be a gainer from glory so graceful
you may ignore all of the painful elements
like how we've all become human experiments
full resonance
standing in the wake of the blast
and the dark shadow it has now cast
sins of the past with an echo
seeking for a stranglehold that it won't let go
setting in long term
externality machines
ends make about as much sense as the means
hold it in, but now i'm busting at the seams
listen while my guitar gently screams
and dig it good
don't let me be misunderstood
or keep me unaware, so i can't care
blind ambition is the mission protocol
Donnie Darko meets Total Recall
wouldn't Kurt Vonnegut be proud?
if i'm in a cloud of unknowing
it is not showing
what is bliss again? i never learned that
now the sad fact is i can't turn back
clearly, that domino theory applies here
no alarm, therefore, no surprise here
