Love (the) Machine They shoved us into the factory Where all their heroes are made Simplified all the structures Explained away all our pain 7 years held us empty 7 years held us blind All these years of a worthless war Thinking we would believe it all Chorus The subtle truth is killing me Lies woven oh so intricately The poisons in every word you said To infect the hearts of the common man Controlling lives isnt easy It’s a disciplined game Forcefeeding the public Masking loss as a gain Love the machine ‘cause it loves us You always knew what was best We’ll just cover our ears and cover our eyes So you can murder the rest Chorus: The subtle truth is killing me Lies woven oh so intricately The poisons in your every word To infect our hearts with your dreams absurd

Danceaux de la Femme Te dejo caer muy lejos de su abrazo (She let you fall far from her embrace) Te encerro en la noche y te hizo imaginar demasiadas cosas (Caging you into the night and making you imagine so many things) Tan solo miro, sonrio y solto tu mano (With a gaze and a smile, she let go of your hand) Con un ultimo beso apago la cancion que bailabas (With a last kiss, she turned off the song that you danced to) Te dejo envolver cada pequeño recuerdo…hasta un pedazo del cielo (She let you wrap each little memory…even a piece of heaven) Que el viento abandono en tu puerta (that the wind dropped at your door) Tan solo se fue como un perfecto extraño (Then she left like a perfect stranger) Con un ultimo beso apago esa cancion que cantabas (With one last kiss she turned off the song that you sang) Chorus: Solo te dejo tu propio reflejo en cada cristal (She left you with only your reflection in every glass) Y una hermoso brillante que vale nada (And a beautiful sparkle that means nothing)

Mission Accomplished We’re losing power captain tell us how we should proceed We’re losing face, losing our grip on all the people who wanted so badly to believe in our capabilities Our title role is unmatched Who’s left to intercede? Seek out the ones around the world to make new enemies The poorest nations should be grateful For the breadcrumbs and the bombs we drop all in the name of freedom and of liberty We’ll breed a new type of world Masked as Democracy Create a hate for those who don’t agree with what we believe Blackout the media to control all the images of a war That the public is not allowed to see If they question our resolve The answers will mislead Those who dessent will be charged with national heresy Rasie your voice Lose your choice To exist in this brainwashed nation that we’ve come to be Home of the power hungry cowards who feed on fallacy Land of where they stole our right to be free

No Response 04:43
No Response I breathe her name But she’ll never hear Her ears have failed to listen I wear her favorite things That she’ll never see Doubt has made her blind and turn away from me An end may mark a beginning But she left knowing what she meant to me An endless array of emotions sparkle in my red heart That she’ll never feel A sense of self has numbed her until she disappears It may have been our ignorance that made us lose our way But it’s the indifference of pride that will keep us apart My soul may cry our for her touch , ripping away all of my soft parts I can beg for sleep, but the more I plead her voice rings in my mind Wake up now…Wake up and live now…
