[Verse 1]
I am pleased to meet you for the first time
My name is business you are science
I'll lead you on
I'll take it over from here
You did your part
Now I'll cut you off
[Chorus]
We die in the forest fire
Are we all to be accountable
We die but the show goes on
Luckily we won't be lookers-on
[Verse 2]
Blowing the whistle won't do me harm
No one can hear you my little one
So look at me now
You work for me now don't you
Shake my keen hand
Welcome to the wasteland
[Chorus]
We die in the forest fire
Are we all to be accountable
We die but the show goes on
Luckily we won't be lookers-on
La la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la
[Verse 3]
As the smoke begins to dissipate
We will leave an eery whiff of lifelessness
So easily we're gone nowhere to be seen
The stinky smell of the ugly machine will lead on
[Chorus]
We die in the forest fire
Are we all to be accountable
We die but the show goes on
Luckily we won't be lookers-on
La la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la

Designer Toy Dogs

[Verse 1]
Stacked dock on the shoreline
Reciever no one
Waiting for an owner
Sweet smelling oil
The engines boil
An era of wonder
Something's out of order
Dump it in the water
Wear and tear apart
[Chorus]
Dressed up playdolls
Serve their time
Future foreigner
To their child
With designer toy dogs
[Verse 2]
Printers are dripping
Billboards emitting
A light you never saw
Workers resigning
Results are striking
For the ones deciding
Something's out of order
Dump it in the water
Wear and tear apart
[Chorus]
Dressed up playdolls
Serve their time
Future foreigner
To their child
With designer toy dogs
[Verse 3]
Heed the chorus
Ain't it gorgeous
Right before us
Stop to analyze
To revive
A tenable order
But it's over
Our shoulders
We can not retain
All the strength
Any longer
Something's out of order
Dump it in the water
Wear and tear apart
[Chorus]
Dressed up playdolls
Serve their time
Future foreigner
To their child
With designer toy dogs
Dressed up playdolls
Serve their time
Future foreigner
With designer toy dogs

Deadly Ambition

|
[Verse 1]
Lakeside tide
Mizzle times
A tame attendance
Repressed recollection
News report decline
Bound slave to the chime
[Chorus]
Carrying the vessel up high
Hoping that the tree tops
Won't give out
Cresting the green canopy
Swivel the twig until
The fall is free
You're among
The red dwarves
[Verse 2]
Siren sounds
Terrified
Awake under my
Eyelid's limitation
News report decline
Bound slave to the chime
[Chorus]
Carrying the vessel up high
Hoping that the tree tops
Won't give out
Cresting the green canopy
Swivel the twig until
The fall is free
You're among
The red dwarves
[Verse 3]
News report decline
Bound slave to the chime
Lakeside tide
Mizzle times
A tame attendance
Repressed recollection
Lakeside tide
Mizzle times
A tame attendance
Repressed recollection
Was it all fiction
A deadly ambition
Led to this conviction
The final submission

The Shepherd's Order
04:43
|
|||
|
[Verse 1]
This is what you have been specified for
Comfortably secure to your armchair
Relieved by the horrifying headlines
And bullied into submission long enough that you don't fear what's wrong
Progressive sound
Polyrhythmic pretense
[Chorus]
Subjects to pseudoscience
Patients with no desire
Subjects to pseudoscience
Patients with no desire
[Verse 2]
A group of sheep
Awaiting the shepherd's order
And all of what's left of this hollow semblance
Is a weak excuse for man
[Chorus]
Subjects to pseudoscience
Patients with no desire
Subjects to pseudoscience
Patients with no desire
[Chorus]
Subjects to pseudoscience
Patients with no desire
Subjects to pseudoscience
Patients with no desire
Subjects to pseudoscience
Patients with no desire
Subjects to pseudoscience
Patients with no desire

Perfect Unison
04:27
|
|||
|
[Verse 1]
Musical
Synchronized unison
Biblical
Guardian of the nation
Faceless lear on the sidelines
Still searching for stimuli
Sympathy
Opposition
Just different significance
[Chorus]
Boundries that could divide
All our landscapes and grime
Let the flag secure ground
Where it long stood so loud
[Verse 2]
We'll tear it down
Leave the flag in the mud
A vanity flood spread through the hostile crowd
Faceless lear on the sidelines
Still searching for stimuli
Sympathy
Opposition
Just different significance
[Chorus]
Boundries that could divide
All our landscapes and grime
Let the flag secure ground
Where it long stood so loud
[Verse 3]
Over the fence he made his escape
Away from the contemporary refrain
He reminisces of his father's tales
Away from his country of nationalists
[Chorus]
Boundries that could divide
All our landscapes and grime
Let the flag secure ground
Where it long stood so loud

The Entertained Few
04:20
|
|||
|
[Verse 1]
Threat to national security
Low battery and bad reception
Media blackout has got everyone wondering who's gonna die
Stimulate by simulating crisis
Spread the neurotoxin
So they can choose between fight or flight
Console me with your blessed presence
And grant me the courage to persevere until
I am with you
[Verse 2]
The raven spanned his wings
Into the wind
A critical sign
An altered design
The flood
The walls
Reached beyond
Above
Our crackling dome
[Chorus]
But who are they feeding
And who sends the invoice
To all the lost souls running around
Someone has to be collecting
All the rewards of public fright
And I know I'm not the one
'Cause I smash my knuckles to the ground
So goodbye
Won't be writing into all your
Stupid lies
Did you believe what you found?
Critize
The endless supplies
[Verse 3]
Soaring in the skies above
The vultures feed on the vulnerable
Come hide
I won't tell anyone
But you were the vulture all along
[Chorus]
Who are they feeding
And who sends the invoice
To all the lost souls running around
Someone has to be collecting
All the rewards of public fright
I know i'm not the one
'Cause I smash my knuckles to the ground
So goodbye
Won't be writing into all your
[Verse 4]
The reason for prohibiting the things that I love
Can easily be spotted in the
Desensitized aura
Apparently welcomed
To the higher ground
But you and I are not

Aldelea I

[Verse 1]
Comments make reports
Remarks also
Dead end archiving
On the corner
Selling mirrors
To the high demand
Buying legal medication
Server transmission to still your heart
[Verse 2]
The mist moves in before the mountains
Like a curtain closing
They're painting the homes in their own private shells
For the proximity of darkling clouds
[Verse 3]
Accept the fact that just like me
You are a simple fiend to feed
Chase the purple dragon down
Synapses fire
In motion with the shaking thumb
Tumble down

Aldelea II
04:45
|

|
[Verse 1]
Nursery rhymes
Lullabies
Realizing your mis-thought
Pacified by decreased mental activity
Requiem for the son
The favorite one
Claims of scrutiny
For the sacred heart
When the strings are gone
Facing time in the time of your
Facing time in the time of your life
[Chorus 1]
Under the rug
You swept the opposition
And imprisoned your countrymen
Up until now
Led beyond the light
Exploiting fragile interpreters and loyal crowds
You are the jester impressionist
[Verse 2]
Looking back at the records and archives
The antogonist was a con
And you voted for the wolf in sheep's clothing
Promises made with fingers crossed
[Verse 3]
Rolling down the hills
On through the brushwood
Over the rails where the youth died
Rolling down the hills
On through the brushwood
Over the rails where the youth died
In the deserted sun
Just around the bend
Lays a decadent shape in fire
[Chorus 2]
Burn the land
Bulldozers and men in yellow hats on parade
Saving starving kids
Feeding them stimulants
To still their hunger
[Verse 4]
Married to a patronising clown
Gathering patriotic crumbs
Surging nationalistic flood
Retained by withering moral grounds

Hurriah Borlänge, Sweden
Two dudes, guitar, drums, vocals and a lack of faith in rules. Maybe that's why these gentlemen do not allow themselves to be limited by square genre definitions. Maybe that's also why they do not see a problem with taking the heavy parts from stoner rock, the energetic parts from punk rock and the sweet melodies from the best songwriters of our time. ... more
