Man Machine


Written by Garth.D - 14/9/02


Behind the light there is something no one sees
A future of happiness, pain, fucked up feelings in need
And to what it�s all worth in the end great voices,
Tell stories upon times where everything was helpless

I hear you say shit, I hear you talk shit, out loud, too
loud I cant hear it
Well why say something that doesn�t mean a thing�when you
have the world begging
And kneeling down at your knees?

I can bring a smile, at the same time bring fear
At the same time I can make you sad
And in a blink I can disappear
I can play with your emotions, let�s face it�anyone can
All our feelings are locked away inside, but when we let
them free, watch out�

In a second I can sense
I can feel, I can move
I can touch anything
But that�s just if I want to

Yours and my freedom is something we both share
All of us have our own lives but inside see the same pictures
Pictures of many things, but its not about the image
It�s about what it describes, what it makes you feel and
what it tells your mind

Do you know where you are?
Is this place really home?
How do you know your best friend doesn�t exist when you�re
not there?

A thousand questions asked
Is it ever enough?
Maybe you�re talking too much
Sit back relax, and enjoy the ride

The people you pique
The shit that you talk
The hurt, resentment and anger
The feelings that you brought
The happiness the good will
The cheerful highs, it still just isn�t enough in our lives

What do you want?
What are you after?
Are you chasing something that you know you can�t have?
The epidemic of society�it will infect you next�

Tormented by others, thinking they are better
I have a few words for you
You�re fucking next!

Spit on you, that�s all I wanna do
All I want to do is spit on you..

So another thought I ponder
Another day goes by
Another night becomes the eye of the knife staring down on me
Another place I put my head down to rest, rest the nerves
that bleed with pain
My joints broke cold, my body left dazed

Why do people hurt
Why do people kill?
What possesses them to do it?
Finally kill it, pull that trigger and dig that blade in

These thoughts I think, these thoughts I feel
Will never make a difference to anything in this world
I won�t affect
I won�t effect
I won�t do one damn thing to change your life around
Change the way you think
WHY?
Because you don�t want to know
You want to stay inside
You don�t wanna come out
And see a broader life

Man is a machine running on blood

Tomorrow I see another day in need of you
Tomorrow needs you to be that person at heart
Not to be a life awaiting to be scarred
Just be real and be yourself
Cause that�s all you can be�right?

Wrong

Why did you think that?
You can imitate cant you?
Be a person you would like to be, but its not really you,
really its me
Stealing my soul
How do you feel?
You don�t feel a thing because at heart you�re just so�COLD!

This is something that plays with my emotions, feelings in
my head, my soul, and the rest of my goddamned fucked up body
Who am I?
I still don�t know
And I still don�t know what to think about the world, and
I�m sure I�ll never learn

Do you know what you are?
Do you know what I am?
Do you know what the world holds so dear�?
Stay alive until the end � is it possible?

I�m more than a person I know I am, and you will never ever
know just what that is.......
