lyrics

relay signals of our lives at breakneck speeds to paralyze
nerves need not depolarize, blink twice if you realize
a cold caress on our eyes
the softest wool, a lover's lies
it's not enough to survive
tell me if you can feel this
actions short of their potential
dulled by all things nonessential
target remains
more of the same
struggle to make contact though we aim
pray to god my soul to save then button mash and hope for the next stage
i cant stand in one place
let's make moves let's seek change
static feet breed clotted veins
and life finds a way

all we know is this machine
sampled scenery so serene
have we yet to realize
maune this time
all we know is this machine
sunken grooves quite obscene
time to open our eyes
prepare to disengage

climaxes expressionless muffled sterilized
victims of shortsightedness, our hands up to the sky
petition for the royal flush, sitting one card shy
it'll take more than an endorphin rush to breach these walls and find
we sought a buzz that's artificial, lost touch with what's interstitial
filtered out the sentimental
tap into the sinew
this convoy is use once and destroy
rethink regen refresh deploy
