there are borders you can’t cross,
pictures you can’t create
kill these infidels who have no shame,
mock our prophets, mock our faith
God is great
I do this all for you my lord,
you, my only true God
God is great
all those nights of loneliness,
Fuel my hatred
hear my cries, hear me prey,
stand me by when i hesitate
this is our war, where my heart lies,
where i’m not alone, part of a whole
united as one, with one great cause.
this is my call, where i die for,
God is great
those dogs of hell willand must pay
they've signed their faith, now it’s too late
God is great
I do this all for you my lord
you, my only true God

kubrick has filmed the man on the moon
his first steps were our last.
don’t believe a word of whatever they say
who’s against us is my enemy
the truth, the truth, the truth is an institute
no more screaming down the hall,
meditating in an isolation cell
recruit, recruit, new members for the institute
swear me that you will
tell me the truth, nothing else
but the truth, anything you say
can and will be used
against you, against you
the truth, the truth, the truth is an institute
don’t believe a word of whatever they say,
They’ll do anything to make you obey.
we’ve got evidence to proof you’re all wrong,
join us and enjoy the benefits and more
no more screaming down the hall,
meditating in an isolation cell
recruit, recruit new members for the institute
the truth, the truth, the truth is an institute

Panic

never, never, any time
he would think of breaking laws,
doing something out of line,
rash and unpredictable.
obsessions keep him occupied,
systems that obey the laws
of order and no rocket science,
ways to reign above chaos
life, life, life, sleep, sleep, sleep
Panic take a hold of his
life, life, life, sleep, sleep, sleep
everything he says and does
has to reach perfection.
one mistake and he crumbles,
gets eaten by his judgements.
his thoughts are going in circles
down a spiral, a whirlpool.
cold sweat now drips of his chin,
panic takes a hold of him,
life, life, life, sleep, sleep, sleep
panic take a hold of his
life, life, life, sleep, sleep, sleep
no cobwebs in the corners of
a nice and tidy living room,
no roaches crawling on the wall,
flies whirling around flickering lights
no trace of chaos to be found,
no trace of failure, not a sign
chance never got to throw the dice
in his calculated
life, life, life, sleep, sleep, sleep
panic take a hold of his
life, life, life, sleep, sleep, sleep

buy and be loved, the future’s yours
enjoy the view down from the top,
spectator - buyer, buy what you want,
what’s on display is all we’ve got
the power to spend is the the power to live,
who lacks the power becomes faceless
If you work hard you can afford
If you fail it’s your own fault
The future’s lying in your own hands
it’s almost yours, forever yours,
Forever yours, it’s almost yours
buy and be loved, the future’s yours
You’ll be desired, envied and loved.
make your choice, there’s no pressure,
no one’s waiting, forever yours
it’s almost yours, forever yours,
Forever yours, it’s almost yours

as long as fear is not in my mind,

Routine

you’re stuck in routine,
locked in a grid,
are you doing this on purpose?
want to make to something clear?
we don’t know what to do,
It’s your turn to make a move,
something is hanging above your head,
better beware, do you feel it
do you feel the tip?
if you don’t change,
We’ll make the choice for you,
after all these years
you should know better.
go back to work, talk with two words,
you are here to serve
I’m just another cog in the machine
stuck in Routine, locked in a grid
stuck in Routine, locked in a grid
routine, stuck in routine

lack of focus? feeling Confused? feeling restless?
thoughts that tend towards depression?
losing track In a conversation?
relatin, relatin, ritalin is your best friend
relatin, relatin, the cure to all your problems

chains your instinct, numbs your

what if I did, what can go wrong?

Maintain

my limbs are weak, my fists are clinched
my muscles are flexed and my body is tense
no drugs can beat all the kicks that I feel
at night on the streets on the lookout for filth.
remember these words, word after word,
listen with both ears or you’ll get hurt
maintain control is why i’m here for,
maintain control, oh sweet control
maintain, control, maintain, control
please, answer me, where have you gone
where are you going and where are you from?
please, answer me, where have you gone
happy to see me or is that a gun?
maintain, control, maintain, control
hold your hands still, don’t try to resist
I’ll tighten the shackles around your wrists.
remember these words, word after word,
listen with both ears or you’ll get hurt
maintain, control, maintain, control
maintain control is why i’m here for,
