Electro-Dementia
Corrupted File
[Chorus]
File not found
On hollow ground
A silent sound
Going round and round
[Verse 1]
A simple word
A truth unheard
It triggers it
[Verse 2]
A photograph
A silent laugh
That doesn't fit
[Verse 3]
My timeline skips
My own mind slips
Into a pit
[Bridge 1]
There is a ghost in the machine
A bloody and deleted scene
And I am standing in between
[Chorus]
[Verse 4]
I try to run
The debug fun
But it all fails
[Verse 5]
The system's down
I start to drown
In broken tales
[Verse 6]
The data's gone
But the fear lives on
It never stales
[Bridge 2]
I feel the shape of what I lost
I count the unbearable cost
Like fingers trapped in winter frost
[Chorus]
[Verse 7]
A hole in time
A perfect crime
Without a trace
[Verse 8]
I wear a face
But I can't place
This empty space
[Verse 9]
I'm scared of what
My mind forgot
In this disgrace
[Bridge 3]
Maybe the file is not the key
Maybe the one who's lost is me
Corrupted for eternity
[Chorus]
Dead Icon
[Chorus]
Hollow heart
Hollow smile
Hollow words
For a little while
[Verse 1]
You see :
Wave.
(👋)
My truth :
Erased...
[Verse 2]
You see :
Heart.
(❤️)
But mine is
A Hole...
[Verse 3]
You type :
Fire.
(🔥)
But I never
Feel so Cold …
[Chorus]
[Verse 4]
You see :
Laugh.
(😂)
My truth :
I'm choking...
[Verse 5]
You see :
Thumb.
(👍)
But
I'm sinking
[Verse 6]
We type :
Pray.
(🙏)
But we lies
We don't care...
[Chorus]
[Verse 7]
You see:
Purple
(🟣)
My wound :
My Body.
[Verse 8]
You see:
Zebra
(🦓)
My truth:
Each line, a scream.
[Verse 9]
You type:
Whale
(🐋)
My truth:
A final game to play.
[Bridge]
But the vilest icon of them all,
Is a party where the children fall.
An appetite that feeds on screams (🍕)
And breaks the future in their dreams.
[Chorus]
[Outro]
You type :
Ghost.
(👻)
My truth :
I'm Home...
You type :
Sleep.
(💤)
I hope this time
Forever...
I see :
Seen.
(✅)
My world :
The Void...
And nothing more...
Designer Dust
[Chorus]
Beautiful collapse
Watch the world elapse
A golden, final lapse
For us alone, perhaps
[Verse 1]
The sky is red
A pretty dread
From our glass wall
[Verse 2]
The sirens sing
A lovely thing
Before the fall
[Verse 3]
Let's take a shot
Of what we've got
And watch it all
[Bridge 1]
Let's toast to the end of the line
Your fear is yours, and mine is mine
Everything is by design
[Chorus]
[Verse 4]
My water's pure
A fine allure
It tastes of naught
[Verse 5]
This bunker's chic
The latest trick
That my money bought
[Verse 6]
A velvet rope
A thread of hope
For the well-taught
[Bridge 2]
The poor are screaming on the news
It's so hard now to pick and choose
Which tragedy is best to use
[Chorus]
[Verse 7]
The Wi-Fi's slow
The final blow
A tragedy
[Verse 8]
Nowhere to go
To steal the show
For them to see
[Verse 9]
Just you and I
Beneath the sky
Of apathy
[Bridge 3]
The world is burning, what a shame
But we are not the ones to blame
We just got better at the game
[Chorus]
Hollow Crown
[Chorus]
Hollow crown
Paper throne
Play the part
Die alone
[Verse 1]
I learned the lines
I read the signs
A perfect clone
[Verse 2]
I stole the thoughts
I tied the knots
That aren't my own
[Verse 3]
I wear the suit
I hide the root
On this fake throne
[Bridge 1]
Applause is just the sound of time
Running out on my perfect crime
And every word is not my own
[Chorus]
[Verse 4]
They say "well done"
I want to run
It was just luck
[Verse 5]
They call my name
It feels like shame
I'm just a schmuck
[Verse 6]
This whole prestige
A subtle siege
I'm feeling stuck
[Bridge 2]
I'm just the echo in a hall
A painted face upon a wall
Waiting for the bricks to fall
[Chorus]
[Verse 7]
Their trusting eyes
Are my demise
They see a king
[Verse 8]
It's all a scam
I am a sham
A hollow thing
[Verse 9]
I wait for when
The show will end
And the axe to swing
[Bridge 3]
I pray the blade is sharp and true
And cuts the me, and cuts the you
And proves that none of this was true
[Chorus]
Just A Sound
[Chorus]
It's just a sound now
On hollow ground now
The word is gone now
From dusk 'til dawn now
[Verse 1]
I say "Love"
It feels so strange
A rusty hinge
[Verse 2]
I say "Love"
It starts to change
On the outer fringe
[Verse 3]
I say "Love"
Rearrange
My final cringe
[Bridge 1]
I killed the word with my own mouth
I sent its meaning to the south
Into a land of endless drouth
[Chorus]
[Verse 4]
I say "L-ove"
My tongue is thick
A foreign shape
[Verse 5]
I say "Luhv"
A simple trick
A cheap escape
[Verse 6]
I say "Ov"
A nervous tic
On the final tape
[Bridge 2]
The dictionary is a tomb
A silent and forgotten room
Where feelings wait for their own doom
[Chorus]
[Verse 7]
I say "..."
The echo bites
A broken bell
[Verse 8]
I say "..."
It reads the rites
Of its own hell
[Verse 9]
I say "..."
And in the nights
I cannot tell
[Bridge 3]
And when the final word is dead
And all the pretty things are said
There's only silence in my head
[Chorus]
My Broken Dolls
[Chorus]
Break you.
Fix you.
My pretty, broken thing
I'll keep you.
For the gallery
[Verse 1]
I see the crack
I love the lack
Of self-esteem
[Verse 2]
Your little tear
It kills my fear
It is my dream
[Verse 3]
Come take my hand
I understand
Or so it seems
[Bridge 1]
I'll be the god inside your flaw
The only light you ever saw
Your worship is my only law
[Chorus]
[Verse 4]
I'll mend your wing
But pull the string
To keep you near
[Verse 5]
I'll dry your eyes
With charming lies
And disappear
[Verse 6]
I'll be your god
It's kind of odd
How you adhere
[Bridge 2]
I love the sound your spirit makes
Each time a tiny fiber breaks
For all the pretty things it takes
[Chorus]
[Verse 7]
You start to heal
You start to feel
A bit too strong
[Verse 8]
So I must find
Inside your mind
What went all wrong
[Verse 9]
To make you bleed
To plant the seed
Where you belong
[Bridge 3]
This isn't love, it's artistry
A living piece of tragedy
And you will only die with me
[Chorus]
Our Perfect War
[Chorus]
This isn't madness
This is our throne
The world outside
Is just a drone
[Verse 1]
Lock all the doors
Ignore the floors
They creak with lies
[Verse 2]
Your hand in mine
A sacred sign
Against their spies
[Verse 3]
We'll build a fort
Of last resort
Behind your eyes
[Bridge 1]
Let's feed the fire, watch it burn
There is no point of no return
It's our religion we must learn
[Chorus]
[Verse 4]
You see the threat
Before it's set
I load the gun
[Verse 5]
My paranoia
Is your new Torah
We are as one
[Verse 6]
This world is fake
For goodness sake
So let's just run
[Bridge 2]
They call it sickness, I call it art
To build a world two worlds apart
And eat each other's beating heart
[Chorus]
[Verse 7]
They whisper "cult"
An adult insult
For what we share
[Verse 8]
They cannot breathe
This air we seethe
Of sweet despair
[Verse 9]
So let them stare
We do not care
We are a pair
[Bridge 3]
If one of us begins to doubt
The other one will snuff them out
That's what our love is all about
[Chorus]
Phantom Limb
[Chorus]
It isn't there
I feel it still
A ghost of me
Against my will
[Verse 1]
I reach for it
To turn the page
A sudden fit
Of silent rage
[Verse 2]
I feel the cold
Upon the skin
A story told
From deep within
[Verse 3]
I make a fist
That isn't there
A phantom tryst
With empty air
[Bridge]
The doctors say the nerves still fire
A faulty message on a wire
A memory that builds a pyre for a limb I don't have
[Chorus]
[Verse 4]
I feel an itch
A silent twitch
I cannot scratch
A broken latch
[Verse 5]
It has a weight
A heavy date
I have to keep
When I'm asleep
[Verse 6]
A sudden shock
Around the clock
A jolt of pain
A acid rain
[Bridge]
This isn't flesh, this isn't bone
The limb I lost was not my own
It was your hand inside my hand, and now I'm alone
[Chorus]
[Verse 7]
The ache is you
And what we knew
The cold, your side
Where you should hide
[Verse 8]
The spasm's when
I see you then
In someone's face
In this dead place
[Verse 9]
I try to grip
My fingers slip
On what we lost
The final cost
[Bridge]
There is no cure, there is no pill
A part of me is with you still
An amputation of the soul that never will heal
[Chorus]
Smile Or Die
[Chorus]
This is a happy place
So show a happy face
We love you so, you see
Now join the colony
[Verse 1]
Your heart is black?
Put on a track
That's full of sun
[Verse 2]
You want to cry?
Don't even try
You're not the one
[Verse 3]
Just be content
One hundred percent
Your sadness, shun
[Bridge 1]
We have the cure for your disease
We'll cut the nerve that feels the breeze
Just get down on your fucking knees
[Chorus]
[Verse 4]
The scream is stuck
Behind your pluck
And your bright teeth
[Verse 5]
Your soul is dead
But your cheeks are red
And you can breathe
[Verse 6]
Just nod and say
"It's a great day"
From underneath
[Bridge 2]
The silence here is made of screams
We buried all the bad, bad dreams
Now nothing is what it all seems
[Chorus]
[Verse 7]
The mask it cracks
The truth attacks
A single tear
[Verse 8]
They look away
They start to pray
And show their fear
[Verse 9]
Your pain is real
So they can't feel
You disappear
[Bridge 3]
Your sadness is a contagion
An error in the equation
Prepare for your own salvation
[Chorus]
Sweet Decay
[Chorus]
Sweet decay
Is where I play
Kill the light of day
Let me waste away
[Verse 1]
The curtains drawn
To kill the dawn
A perfect tomb
[Verse 2]
A sad, sad song
Where I belong
Inside the gloom
[Verse 3]
Let the flowers wilt
And the milk be spilt
In my own room
[Bridge 1]
Happiness is a violent guest
It puts a knife inside my chest
My darkness knows my body best
[Chorus]
[Verse 4]
You talk of hope
A slippy slope
To something bright
[Verse 5]
That kind of gleam
Is a bad dream
A violent light
[Verse 6]
I'd rather stay
And waste away
In endless night
[Bridge 2]
My sadness is a skeleton
The only friend I can count on
Until my final race is run
[Chorus]
[Verse 7]
A good day comes
My body numbs
I have to flee
[Verse 8]
I'll find a flaw
A rusty saw
To cut my glee
[Verse 9]
'Cause if I'm not sad
Then I'll go mad
I won't be me
[Bridge 3]
This body is a house of rot
A beautiful and tragic spot
The only heaven that I've got
[Chorus]
Best In Grief
[Chorus]
Post the black square
Show them you care
The prettiest tear
Wins for the year
[Verse 1]
The news is out
A silent shout
Time to begin
[Verse 2]
I find the pic
The perfect trick
Where my smile wins
[Verse 3]
The caption's deep
While they all sleep
I cash it in
[Bridge 1]
Another death, another chance
To lead the sad and lonely dance
To steal a sympathetic glance
[Chorus]
[Verse 4]
I check the likes
The sorrow spikes
A rising tide
[Verse 5]
Her post is good
I understood
My gentle pride
[Verse 6]
Must add a "deep"
And private "keep"
Nowhere to hide
[Bridge 2]
We are the vultures of the feed
Planting our flag, a selfish seed
Upon a fresh and bleeding deed
[Chorus]
[Verse 7]
A week has passed
The dye is cast
The trend is dead
[Verse 8]
A new thing starts
For broken hearts
To get ahead
[Verse 9]
I'll keep the pic
For the next sad trick
Inside my head
[Bridge 3]
Because the dead can't call you out
They can't begin to scream and shout
About what this was all about
[Chorus]
