At war with culture
An enemy on the streets
With your banners and flags the vultures
Circle up above
Looking to eat
HUNT

CUT
THEM
O
PEN
FROM
THE
BACK
It's not what you know
It's what you need to know
All these secrets
Keep you safe
From yourselves
In the end
We will justify the means
Mother, do you know where your children are tonight?
To defend
Our bourgeois-pantomime democracy
We'll lie to you because
Truth is a privilege, not a right
Cameras in the air
There's a war on somewhere
You check-in on your phone,
You're paying to be watched
A convenient monthly sum
The greatest trick the devil pulled
CHECK
IN
CHECK
OUT
MAN

YOU
BE
LONG
TO
US
NOW
We'll wrap our arms around you now
A cloying, choking shroud
We want you to feel safe
Please stay inside your homes
Remember to recharge your phones
Out there is only rape
In the end
We will justify the means
Mother, do you know where your children are tonight?
To defend
Our bourgeois-pantomime democracy
Truth is a privilege, not a right
"Ladies and gentlemen
Please stay inside your homes
Lock your doors and stay inside
Put your phones on charge
Modern hard-working families deserve better
Modern hard-working British families
Britain. Modern. Hard-working. Britain.
Who will care for your children when you're gone?"
In the end
We will justify the means
Mother, do you know where your children are tonight?
To defend
Our pantomime-bourgeois democracy
We'll lie to you because
Truth is a privilege, not a right
Truth

Not a right
Truth

They Always Wear Black
02:55
|

Locked away in the vaults
Computers made from human brains
A vast network overground
Invisible connections make us slaves
Batteries powered by our sun
Sealed within our primate skulls
You and I power their machines
They guide our evolution, then we're culled
You can see them
Everywhere
In the shadows
So beware
Hiding in darkness
Watching near and far
Dressed to kill
We'll tell you who they are...
They always wear black
As old as the Earth
A timeless brotherhood
Reshaping the land
Oceans once lied, mountains once stood
Sharply dressed men and birds
Black shades hide their scheming eyes
With a single flick of the wrist
The cigarette's flying... Now you die!
You can see them
Everywhere
In the shadows
So beware
Hiding in darkness
Watching near and far
Dressed to kill
We'll tell you who they are...
They always wear black

Skywatchers

I want to believe in the things I've seen
Great ships of gold in celestial seas
Silent silver spinning discs
I want to believe
Tall grey men in desert tombs
Nevada 51 their doom
Majestic 12 and Project Blue
I want to believe
They will come from distant space
And hide among the human race
To seek the truth, expose the lies
Deadly force is authorised
And if you do not want to die
Watch the sky, watch the sky
It could be a neighbour or a leader of state
Distracting our thoughts and directing our fate
Cloaked in hair and human skin
The work of conquer begins
Distracting us with war while we're starving to death
They hold us underwater while we're holding our breath
Distracting us with cancer and electric cars
The next great battleground... is the stars
They will come from distant space
And hide among the human race
To seek the truth, expose the lies
Deadly force is authorised
And if you do not want to die
Watch the sky, watch the sky
Watch the sky
I want to believe in the things I've seen
Great ships of gold in celestial seas
Silent silver spinning discs
I want to believe
Tall grey men in desert tombs
Nevada 51 their doom
Majestic 12 and Project Blue
I want to believe
They will come from distant space
And hide among the human race
To seek the truth expose the lies
Deadly force is authorised
And If you do not want to die
Watch the sky, watch the sky

She'll Never Find Out
05:31
|

They came from somewhere out there
Down from the stars like a fucking nightmare
Infiltration that is so complete
We never know when we're so damn obsolete
She gets home after five o'clock
Hours crawl and minutes stalk
Work or school, the labourious day
She shuts her eyes and down she lays
In the night
While she sleeps
The sun is down
The black so deep
They will stalk
They will come
From the skies
One by one
She won't recall
Where they go
Under stealth
She'll never know
And when she wakes
The next day
No blacks or whites
Only endless grey
She'll never find out
She'll never find out
She'll never find out
She'll never find out
Ensconced by twisting sheets
The concealed sweating human meat
And the cries break the humming drone
As she's taken high above the roads
The subjugation of bone and seed
Morning comes, she won't recall the deeds
An experiment in everlasting pain
She'll never realise it will never be the same
In the night
While she sleeps
The sun is down
The black so deep
They will stalk
They will come
From the skies
One by one
She won't recall
Where they go
Under stealth
She'll never know
And when she wakes
The next day
No blacks or whites
Only endless grey
She'll never find out
She'll never find out
She'll never find out
She'll never find out
Eight years of stolen time
A collapsing star erasing the mind
Memories crushed under a failing sun
Nothing will remain after it's done
And she'll never know how the nights came down like blades
A mind destroyed in every fucking conceivable way
Dreams dissected and torn to bloody shreds
A graveyard of broken thoughts inside the head
Until we're dead!
In the night
While she sleeps
The sun is down
The black so deep
They will stalk
They will come
From the skies
One by one
She won't recall
Where they go
Under stealth
She'll never know
And when she wakes
The next day
No blacks or whites
Only endless grey
She'll never find out
She'll never find out
She'll never find out
She'll never find out

They Know
05:56
|

We know where you live
We know who you are
We know who you associate with
We watch from afar
"We are going to find you. We have your location traced. We know exactly where you are. It's useless trying to run or hide. Expect us to find you. Expect us to track you down. Expect us."
Whoever you are
We know what you've done
It's useless to hide, we have spies in the skies
And it's pointless to run
This one's bigger than you
It goes as high as they go
You may think that you're clean
But they know
They know
So burn all your files
Rip the cables from your wall
Bathe your pictures in acid
It won't help you at all
"We know everything about you. We know things that even you don't know. And you don't know we know. You don't even know who we are. But we know everything about you."
Whoever you are
We know what you've done
It's useless to hide, we have spies in the skies
So it's pointless to run
This one's bigger than you
It goes as high as they go
You may think that you're clean
But they know
They know
Get the kids out of school
Put your things in the car
Empty out the joint account
You won't make it that far
If we can make it to the border
You can try and change your name
Trick and shield your mind from doubt
Tell yourself you're not to blame
Driving till the fuel runs out
Nothing will change
We know your names
Target acquired, let's bring 'em in
Whoever you are
We know what you've done
It's useless to hide, we have spies in the skies
So it's pointless to run
This one's bigger than you
It goes as high as they go
You may think that you're clean
But they know
They know

Black Shuck
04:07
|
|||
Over the land
And under the moon
The howling a warning
He's coming for you
A monster from Hell
From out of the night
Look over your shoulder
His presence a blight
Satanic baying
Draining all of the light
Hearing on fire
While you're losing your sight
Falling apart
He snaps down on your soul
Burning away
Your mind turns into coal
Breath like fire
He's hot on your track
Trampling your consciousness
And leaving you black
The edge of your sanity
Begins to erode and dull
He'll strip the meat from your spine
And eat the brains from your skull
Demon from the depths of Hell
Roaming where the angels fell
Black Shuck
Black Shuck
Grim dog breathing sulphur and flame
Consuming your soul, only leaving you pain
Black Shuck
Black Shuck
Down on your back
And on through your neck
Teeth shred your body
Your flesh is wrecked
Tearing your spirit
Lacerating your shade
Clawing the earth
Face down on your grave
Consuming your blood
Masticating your meat
The bite of his hunger
Flames of his heat
Choking on terror
Eyes fade to red
The silence of Heaven
And Hell's screaming dread
Breath like fire
He's hot on your track
Trampling your consciousness
And leaving you black
The edge of your sanity
Begins to erode and dull
He'll strip the meat from your spine
And eat the brains from your skull
Demon from the depths of Hell
Roaming where the angels fell
Black Shuck
Black Shuck
Grim dog breathing sulphur and flame
Consuming your soul, only leaving you pain
Black Shuck
Black Shuck
