lyrics
Philosophy/Hypocrisy
(Lyrics: S. Bell)
The light burns into my eyes
I follow and shall despise
I’m the machine that never slows
Stops the young from growing old
Indoctrinated and conscience free
Kill for my philosophy
Chorus
I am the machine
I will never slow
I have sown the seed
I now watch it grow
The path illuminated bright
I become the arm of right
I cast my net of fright and fear
My catch I reel and skin and peel
Of all innocence and naivety
Die for my hypocrisy
Chorus
Philosophy/hypocrisy
Brain washed so clean
It glitters and gleams
Righteous and bold
But will take gold
I spread the disease
Of the incomplete
I’m all that you need
And I’ll hear you scream
Chorus
