thinking of always war
thinking of always war
with machines for ancestors
new unborn generations
chemical umbilical cords are only wiring
in your electrical progress
human lives burnt offerings
to the god of greed

with lies for ancestors
there is no truth in some futures
rumors of minds feeding next generation souls to the control machine
sacrifice ritual for the profit of technology
with isolation for ancestors
there's only the present
bought by the credit of material users
forging chains binding you to destruction
compliments of your deities
the industrial priests

no more than neon flash
try hiding in neon mass
have to face who we really are
at some point we have no choice
distant star
distant light
in real world we are human being
in shadow of real world we are being human

neon mass for neon flash
distant thunder
distant cloud
passions rain
drenched in possession
what we take is hard to do
what we do is hard to take
some ones are crazy
or maybe we take turns
dreaming about some kind of life
we say could have been different
but it wasn't because we weren't

no matter what it turns out the same
lot of things we said weren't true
industrial stories in an electrical instant
neon mass neon flash neon flash
thing is nihilistic desires
civilized gone insane
didn't imagine it turning like this
some things start good and go bad
some things get bad and stay bad

are we caught in between living a lie
or not living at all?
eliminated choices lost in dreams we let go
memories we never got to have
something else to think about
waking up in industrial society
surrounded by angry days
going through motions of not being
wanting the best but not expecting it
surviving paid for in dreams
feeling like a world alone
serving god with the devil to pay
feeling like something in no place
what goes on in hell anyway?

thing is it has to do with heart
we have to understand what hearts are for
before we can get back
to heaven or paradise
or the power in our mind
