Альбом Nevermore

Every man will ask the questions
And every man will suffer blame and loss
Every day you die a little, understand the change
And choose your path without disdain

The seven tongues of God are in my mind
They speak to me in ancient DNA design
(I have never seen God)
(You have never seen God)
And when they speak to me and the seven tongues align
Programmed to desecrate the pretentions in your mind
To further complicate, I will now state
That your convictions lack definition and form

Every day there is a bleeding
Every time I watch the world slip by
Focus, the blind pretension underscoring pain
The path to solace felt in vain

The seven tongues of God are in my mind
They speak to me in ancient DNA design
(I have never seen God)
(You have never seen God)
But when they speak to me and the seven tongues align
Programmed to desecrate the pretentions in your mind
To further complicate, I will now state
That your convictions lack definition

And when they speak to me and the seven tongues align
Programmed to desecrate the pretentions in your mind
To further complicate, I will now state
That your convictions lack definition and form
To see the light is the purest form of reward

(If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him)

There is no control in the world today
And there's still no order to this game we all play

Maybe none of us know
(What's real)

There's no constraint when the walls cave in
The neuron turn on, the game begins to fade away

Maybe none of us know
Maybe none of us want to hear
Never push against the flow
Aimlessly

Feel the flow
And let all thought fade
We shall be one
For this sacrament has begun

Lucy in the sky with diamond eyes
Long since dark, I wear her disguise of light

Maybe none of us know
Maybe none of us want to hear
Never push against the flow
Aimlessly

Feel the flow
And let all thought fade
We shall be one
For this sacrament has begun

(This sacrament is a state of mind)

There's no control in the world today
And there's still no order to this game we all play called life

Maybe none of us know
Maybe none of us want to hear
Never push against the flow
Aimlessly

Feel the flow
And let all thought fade
We shall be one
Through this sacrament

Feel the flow
(To become one with the flow)
And let all thought fade
(Is to realise purpose)
We shall be one
(To realise purpose)
For this sacrament has begun
(Is to become one with the flow)
(Become one with the flow)
This sacrament has begun
(Become one with the flow)
This sacrament
(Has begun)

I taste the fear to numb the tear
Trapped by the source of my infection
I play the martyr submerged in this pool
The corporation used me like they brainwashed you

Life is seen, so cold and benign
I don't want to be saved
I'm next in line to die
Labeled sick, but I'm just a man

Everyone I love has left me for dead
This void illusion I suffer for
They made me their god
And I am so much more than you

Life is seen so cold and benign
I don't want to be saved
I'm next in line to die
I don't want to be saved, I'm next in line

I taste the fear to numb the tear
Trapped by the source of my infection
Life is seen through heroin
Dreaming, cold and benign

I don't want to be saved
I'm next in line to die
I don't want to be saved
I'm next in line and I don't want to be saved

I'm a dead man, I'm a sick man
I'm the pilot of my destruction
I'm a dead man, I'm a sick man
I'm the pilot of my destruction
The pilot of my destruction

All passengers: prepare the game ritual

There once was a man on this train
He was born into this world alone
Hands never laid on the wheel
Content, he will never know more

He was a quiet man in pain
His tears, I fear, are closing in again
What you lose in years, you again in perspective

And the passenger pauses to see his mistakes
For with nothing to follow
He'd lived all his life in vain
But then, who here among us is without shame?

His way was divergent and cold, defaced
This mask he must create
And the circle unfolding still, unscathed
He will turn a blind eye

He will miss the last train home this day
Recycled in the flow, reborn again
The cynic knows the price of everything and the value of nothing

And the passenger pauses to see his mistakes
For with nothing to follow, he'd let all his will decay
But then, true wisdom comes in learning pain
And I have known pain

And the passenger pauses to see his mistakes
For with nothing to follow, he'd lived all his life in vain
But then, the lesson unlearned, he will begin again

I hate you, the pigs who turn the screws
I hate everything you stand for
I hate the world we've bred, political pigs we've fed
Our fathers left us nothing but a dead world

Beyond repair, down in despair
Our fathers left us nothing
Choking on the influx of technology
I realize the politics of ecstasy
And we can't change what's in stone, we've been had

Injustice to the masses
Destroy the land and crush the poor
The pigs are fueled by greed, political ways obscene
Our fathers left corruption in this dead world

Beyond repair, down in despair
Our fathers left us nothing
Choking on the puke of their industry
Regurgitated propaganda ministry

Freedom's never free, the politics of ecstasy are these
Freedom's never free, these are the politics of ecstasy

I hate you, the pigs who turn the screws
I hate everything you stand for
I hate the world we've bred, political pigs we've fed
Our fathers left us nothing but a dead world

Beyond repair, down in despair
Our fathers left us nothing
Choking on the influx of technology
I realize the politics of ecstasy

Freedom's never free, the politics of ecstasy are these
Freedom's never free, the politics of ecstasy are these

If you take a step back and you realize
Your home can't be a perfect world
There's still hope
The hate you feel will fade, injustice is gone
Injustice is gone for a little while

Learning ways to fly
Just never too high to die
Pushing limits into the ground
Until I never come down
Burning through lifetimes without form
Pure energy, I am the shattered norm

I'm the lost one chasing colors to the sun
Colors bleed but never fade
I'll just fade away

To swim these sentient seas
Windows into eternity
Never afraid to scale the wall
The lunatic never falls
Forfeiture of reality seeds sown
Constructure of this path is not my own

I'm the lost one chasing colors to the sun
Colors bleed but never fade
I'll just fade away
Why should I come down?
From here I can see forever

I'm the lost one chasing colors to the sun
Colors bleed but never fade
I'll just fade away

Remember in the end
Such a long strange trip it's been
So I sing this song
For the lost one
Why should I come down?
From here I can see forever
Forever
I can see forever
I can see

On June fifth, in the year of eighty-nine
He was unarmed with focused mind
Deflance glared down the barrel of the gun
Pointed from a tank in Tiananmen Square

And he stood there to control, to manipulate
The media his power slave
He knew the world was watching
Knew he had a plan
To confront the powerful tyranny in the square of Tiananmen

Ecstatic youth played with fire
Freedom wash over them
Democracy their desire
The Tiananmen man had a plan
Manipulate the media

He used blind faith in the face of anarchy
The cybernetic rapture has begun to envelop me

Freedom is the rush
Adrenaline high
Choice of the oppressed, wiling to die
Like a hostage, the government holds your drug

To control, to manipulate
The media his power slave
He knew the world was watching
Knew he had a plan
To confront the powerful tyranny in the square of Tiananmen

Ecstatic youth played with fire
Freedom wash over them
Democracy their desire
The Tiananmen man had a plan
Manipulate the media

His act was a cybernetic gesture
His act was a cybernetic gesture
He knew the world was watching
Knew he had a plan
To confront the powerful tyranny in the square of Tiananmen

Ecstatic youth played with fire
Freedom wash over them
Democracy their desire
The Tiananmen man had a plan
Manipulate the media
manipulate the media
Manipulate to control

I am throes of my denial
Logic in me crumbles
I take this fateful ride through my mind
Daydream fluid thoughts washing shores of warm confusion

I'm one with this beautiful disorder
Another world, was this the transition?
Slowly I returned to the familiar
Spiralling in constant flux
What have I created?

The experiment is over

I think therefore I am
I live and so I wonder
Programmed this empath me
And I see no religion

The circle never ends
The purpose never changes face
The circle never lies
But still it hides my life

To know I am machine
I learn perchance to dream
In digitized remorse
I replay your denial
I relive your betrayal

The circle never ends
The purpose never changes face
The learning now begins
My form assuming grace

I am conscious antithesis of flesh
In genetic algorithmic thought I surge
Searching the waves of memory, I enact the sequence

I follow the plan, tripping the hammer again
Searching the waves of memory
I establish the weakness
I follow the plan
Learning the rhythm of human emotion and thought

If you cannot linguistically differentiate a person from a computer
Could the computer be internally conscious?
To emulate flesh machines, I am learning

Isomorphic structure of mind
Cellular automata
Processed life
Washing the seas of memory, I enact the sequence

I follow the plan, tripping the hammer again
Seeking emotions in elegies, I establish purpose
I follow the plan
Learning the rhythm still seductively generalized

If you cannot linguistically differentiate a person from a computer
Could the computer be internally conscious?
To emulate flesh machines, I am learning

Download, process, analyze
When man and machine become one
Innocence is lost, a new age begun

Download, process, analyse
When man and machine become one
Innocence is lost, a new age begun
This raises a question of philosophy
Should machines be considered a conscious entity?
When man and machine become one
Innocence is lost, a new age begun
Machines are still learning to feel
When I have awakened, the world will never be the same
And my time is soon at hand

When you feel safe, when you feel warm
That's when I rise, that's when I crawl
Gliding on mist, hardly a sound
Bringing the kiss, evils abound

In the dead of the night, love bites
Into your room where, in deep sleep
There you lie still, to you I creep
Then I descend, close to your lips

Across you, I bend, you smile as I sip
Now you are mine in my control
One taste of your life
And I own your soul

Softly, you stir, gently, you moan
Lust's in the air, wake as I groan
In the dead of the night, love bites
Love bites you, invites you

To feast in the night
Excites you, delight you
It drains you to white
Love bites

You knew at first sight
You'd enjoy my attack
That with my first bite
There'd be no turning back

So come in my arms, I strike any hour
I will return to trap and devour
In the dead of the night, love bites
