Mental Cases

Who are these?
Why do they sit there in the twilight?
Purgatorial shadows
Misery swelters surely they have perished
Stroke of pain sleep and walk hell
Men whose minds dead have ravished
Who are these?
Their eyeballs still shrink tormented
Memory fingers in their hair of murders
Carnage incomparable and human squander
Who are these?
Why do they sit there in the twilight?
Death they witness
It’s us who dealt them madness and war
Based on the poem “Mental Cases” by Wilfred Owen. On it, he observes men in a mental hospital who suffer from what at the time (World War I) was called shell shock and now might be labelled post-traumatic stress disorder and war-related insanity.

Climb into your electric womb
Brainwash zombie, don’t know you are doomed
IPhone is deity, as you worship it relentless
The outside world does exist, only the new likes on your list
Nothing is real anymore, only in your mobile monitor
Climb into your electric womb
Manmade prison in hell

This way of life is appalling
Puking crude realities
No one cares… Disgraceful
We are flowers blossoming in concrete
Flames that burns for a few seconds
No one cares… Disgraceful
We are all submissive and exploited
They are hiding us like dirt under the rug
No one cares… Disgraceful

White Flag
02:57
|
|||
Isn’t sleep the brother of death?
Walking the tightrope, it’s a direct reminder
That there is nowhere to run
Governed by this lethargy
Raise the white flag to indolence
Indifferent existence
Is there any hope left?
Raise the white flag
Idleness!
Lifeless!
As if life could only ever offer only one chance to bliss

Absurdity
03:19
|
|||
Glorification of egos
Organised absurdity
Mentally starved into submission
Culture of waste
Consumerism ruined our lives
Plastic generation
Forced to kill my dreams
Ignorant invasion
The involution of an era
Second hand mentality!

Never Forget

Never Forget!
Repression and executions organised on a large scale
Dirty War
Forced disappearance routinely practiced
Torture, Murder
Victims of death flights dancing for joy
Drugged into stupor, loaded onto trucks, hustled aboard
Stripped naked, dropped into the sea to drown
Never forget, never again!
Based on the crimes perpetrated during Argentina's "Dirty War", in which tens of thousands of Argentinians died at the hands of the last Military dictatorship. Kidnapping, torture and murder perpetrated between 1976 and 1983, regime's notorious "death flights" – the practice of drugging opponents and dropping them from aircraft over the Rio de la Plata and Atlantic Ocean. As an added twist, victims were sometimes made to dance for joy in celebration of the freedom that they were told awaited them. In 1996, Army Captain Scilingo said, "They were played lively music and made to dance for joy, because they were told that they were going to be transferred to a prison in the south of the country. After that, they were told they had to be vaccinated due to the transfer and they were injected with Pentothal. And shortly after, they became really drowsy”.

Funding of both sides
Your war is disguised
You win either way
Always a profit

Get Away & One Percent

Get Away
You came into my life
All vibrant and full of life
Now we start to yell and fight
Nothing I ever said is right
Sick of all your jealousy and your negativity
No one is good or enough for you
This is why I yell, fuck you!
One percent
A peaceful protest gone astray
A riot breakout today
Tear gas and smart bombs went off
Running you gag, puke and cough
Pregnant women and kids in the crowd
Chanting 99 percent
A veteran shot in the face
Buy a cartridge of a cop’s mace
Surrounded, tear gassed, smart bombed
Freedom?

Dogmatism
02:58
|
|||
I have no intentions of living backwards anymore!
Reason is the path to progress
Freedom is the right to write the wrong words
Lies, Deception, Oppression, Fraud, Opium, Religion
Denial of progress
Grave-diggers of truth
Hatred of the intellect
Spread of ill thought
Coercion and savagery
