I go to sleep in a corporate box
and take frigid corporate shits.
Nothing in my life is out of place;
all my pieces fit.
And everything is just fine.
I fix my meals and I cut my hair
in line with company conduct codes.
I don’t think I’ve ever wanted more—
I’m not sure I know how to hope.
And everything is just fine.
Yeah, everything is alright.
I can’t shake the feeling that
I’m a slave!
I can’t help but fear that I’m
slipping away!
All my life I’ve been
creeping up on it,
now my heart’s about to go
fucking atomic!
[ chilled guitar solo ]
Every day I’m clawed out of bed,
and I never have any dreams.
Yeah, every day is exactly the same—
I’m a cog in a huge machine.
And everything is just
so long as you stay in line.
But I can’t shake the feeling that
I’m a slave!
I can’t help but fear that I’m
slipping away!
All my life I’ve been
creeping up on it,
now my heart’s about to go
fucking atomic!
I can’t take it anymore!
I’ve become a corpo whore!
All my days I’ve been gagged and bound—
I am gonna tear it down!
[ wiz guitar solo ]
I can’t just accept that
I’m a slave!
I can’t just pretend I’m not
slipping away!
All my life I’ve been
creeping up on it—
now my heart’s about to go
fucking atomic!
There ain’t no hiding that
we’re all slaves!
There’s no fucking denying that
we’re slipping away!
All our lives we’ve been
blindly anomic;
it’s time our hearts go
FUCKING ATOMIC!
We spend our days in a corporate box
and swallow harmless corporate lies.
I don’t know that it’s a fight we’ll win,
but I’ve opened my goddamned eyes.
It's hard to pick a favourite track. This is the only album i have so far deemed as "perfect", where every track, even the intro, is just a masterpiece in its own right. From the hard hitting Perturbator's Theme to the emotional title track, its 68 minutes of perfection. 10/10. connivingkhajiit
