The Becoming....
I beat my machine
it’s a part of me
it’s inside of me
I’m stuck in this dream
it’s changing me
I am becoming
The me that you know, he had some second thoughts
He’s covered with scabs, he is broken and sore
The me that you know doesn’t come around much
That part of me isn’t here anymore
All pain disappears
it’s the nature of my circuitry
Drowns out all I hear
no escape from this
my new consciousness
The me that you know used to have feelings
But the blood has stopped pumping and he’s left to decay
The me that you know is now made up of wires
And even when I’m right with you I’m so far away
I can try to get away but I’ve strapped myself in
I can try to scratch away the sound in my ears
I can see it killing away all my bad parts
I don’t want to listen but it’s all too clear
Hiding backwards inside of me I feel so unafraid
Annie, hold a little tighter I might just slip away
It won’t give up it wants me dead
Goddamn this noise inside my head
Mr Self Destruct
I am the voice inside your head And I control you
I am the lover in your bed And I control you
I am the sex that you provide And I control you
I am the hate you try to hide And I control you
I take you where you want to go
I give you all you need to know
I drag you down I use you up
Mr. Self Destruct
I speak religion’s message clear And I control you
I am denial guilt and fear And I control you
I am the prayers of the naïve And I control you
I am the lie that you believe And I control you
I take you where you want to go
I give you all you need to know
I drag you down I use you up
Mr. Self Destruct
I am the needle in your vein And I control you
I am the high you can’t sustain And I control you
I am the pusher I’m a whore And I control you
I am the need you have for more And I control you
I am the bullet in the gun And I control you
I am the truth from which you run And I control you
I am the silencing machine And I control you
I am the end of all your dreams And I control you
I take you where you want to go
I give you all you need to know
I drag you down I use you up
Mr. Self Destruct
