Lyrics:
Tomas Haake

Lacerating pains of
degeneration speed through your
trembling
mind
Still, in machine-like strife you gain
another mile
The temporary elusive goal: To
reach the solace, to
feed once more
upon
the synthetic reaper of loss. No matter
the
outcome. No matter the cost

Cold
and stinging needs tearing through the
halls
Of your defiled, flesh made temple with
its closing
walls
Still you claim the
worshippers pose and you bow.
You
kneel

Control: once superior, now a
docile pet at chaos'
feet
Pulling the leash
as it trails the scent to where all
hurt
recedes
Your past a blurry patch in mind, your
future once; 
now thin dreams filed
Toward
the lights of need you strive - to drink
into
your vein the shine

Beaten to the
unforgiving ground. Lashed
into
submission
- By the inner starving
demon. By its unrelenting
hand
Still you
claim the worshippers pose and you bow.
You
kneel to the syringe

Answering only
to authorities of sedation. Their
calls the
only ones heeded
A worn out soldier touched by
their contagion. A
battered drone at their
feet
You're the one betrayed. An outcast set
afire by your
inner war
Your burning self
so far astray. A combustion fanned
from within
your core
