Self Control
05:29
|

feel the ties
theyre building these connections in my head
i will try
to make you understand just whats being said
i wish it would have to come to this
but this behaviour i cannot restrain
i couldnt stop just to consider why,
because im only moved along by pain
and for now i will not stop until its too late (?)
slow, im getting it so slow
im taking it so cold
its just a matter of self control
its just a matter of self
eel the ties
theyre building these connections in my head
i will try
to make you understand just whats being said
its not about what you intend to say
cause im not sure what i intend to do
there is another sort of game at play
the that i express my might over you
and for now i will not stop until its too late (?)
slow, im getting it so slow
im taking it so cold
its just a matter of self control
its just a matter of self

When I Realize
04:40
|

break in the middle and dont think to talk back
and dont you try to think by yourself again
point out the reasons why you'd like to progress.
and ill dismiss them while declaring you blind
the only problem that i see is that you are obsessed,
to undermine all that i see as devine
deny your information because i feel
that what you say is criticising me too,
lack the tools which will allow to objectively deal
with all that forest where the wild weeds grew
when i realise
its better not to know
then i will despise
whoever tries to show
sure i have complied,
if not i had condone,
then ill justify,
i still cant see whats wrong
these talks of war you know they are getting me down
its sad and all but there is nothing to do
think about the good things you ignore with that frown,
if you wont do it i will smack with my shoe (!?!)
close to the point in which i really would not like to assess,
to reinspect what ive been told all this time
i know that questioning will not ever lead me to my success,
and if im winning i dont really care about the crime
as far as i can see
its all that i am so
i find my home in the bottom
i cant believe that i couldnt admit its broken allthough it was right there. its called denial.

Indifferent
05:30
|
|||
indifferent as i am, its a result of conditioning that made me numb
unacustumed to believe that i can motivate
and has taken my ability to critisize
how they propegate
look away
ill be taken the advice of my superiors
and ill do what im told
and wont be singled out
banished out of my community and left aside
independence of thought its just too dificult
i shouldnt try to make my differences so visible,
i might be considerd a threat
i should just wait it out
and be entranched in hedonism like i did before
and then ill try to forget but its too difficult
ill be taken the advice of my superiors
and ill do what im told
and wont be singled out
banished out of my community and left aside
independence of thought its just too dificult
understand its not in my hand
to make a try and to break this lie
that will paint it all so beutifull
without a shroud
i can be proud
thats where i start to fall
cant escape my
torment inside
i choose to stay
and forget it all
couldnt go away
when i chose to think
nothing can be done
no one can outrun
better just ignoring the decay
shouldnt i display a little posture of dismay
how could i just turn around and go back to where, i was before

A Little Shocked
04:03
|
|||
a little shocked by a thing i witnessed of late
whats truly shocking is the fact that the debate became
a thing i clearly see as out of the line
an indication to our social decline
to which i did not resist
i know that i dont have a right to complain
i cant deny that till now ive been collaborative without disdain
you know, it gets so easy when you particularise,
and get accustomed to ignore all the cries
these cries that i cannot hear
cause im only able to fear
i find i cannot distinguish what is right and whats wrong
i grew dependent of narratives, without them i..
i find it difficult to stay awake
i couldn't tell what i need to condone
the more it goes the more i try to fake
cant try to understand the world by my own
a little shocked by a thing i witnessed of late,
i find the discourse is no longer a debate
in which we are entitled to express what we feel
because it forces that other to kill
i will make it something that i could fear
i find i cannot distinguish what is right and whats wrong
i grew dependent of narratives, without them i..

deeper
04:06
|
|||
if you dont participate get out of the way
were going deeper, and deeper, and deeper, and deeper
well be coming back for you make you obey
without a question, a challange, objection, or balance (?)
i cant bear the chance that i will be singled out
i should stay silent, dont make them, suspect im defiant
hand over that duck tape and ill cover my mouth
and i wont need no protection, respect or attention (?)
i dont miss the pain, wish i could stay insane
wake up, though its not a dream
face that, its really that obscene
with nothing but resent to show
its time to shut my eyes
and get my fix of lies
the scope of my denial
the fact that i t could keep me innocent, if im obedient
i will (?)
theres nothing left to say,
im told i should embrace my ignorance through these impotence
theres a little notion that ld like to confess
because i cannot forget it, i know ill regret it
i do find it difficult to help you oppress,
i feel objection in mind when im facing the question
the question that i think i could never ommit
because of the nature, the spirit, of what im complicit,
complicit in the crime i didnt know id commit
the crime of silence instead of proactive defience
