Elemental Zazen - Machine lyrics

Lost in all the movements and the illusions The music produces clues for your confusion Choosing self improvement over amusement A victim of the abuse and a loner secluded Proving it's a matter of exclusion ruthless Computed solutions not conducive to the blueprint Foolish to question all the views that you've been Sold as truth since a youth with a toothless grin Acute and obtuse our disputes within Seduced by the noose of loose change And the pursuit of skin In the end we all lose but who wins? Is the proof enough To refute where these roots begin? But the roof is caving in an excuse to cling Everything done for a cost and the usual grin We salute the wind before suits that pretend They're on our path with cla** Dilute with loot what we defend Give me your shine cling tight mine mine mine Cause time, time will never let go Imagine you could rewind and remind your mind To find meaning in the things you forget you know Define feelings you confine possess and control The blind healing what's maligned reflect the whole So never fold it's a role complex and cold Behind it all there's a soul your blessed to hold Life is ups and life is downs but I Understand what I'm living for now When you feel your dreams come apart at the seams Wear your heart on your sleeves Don't be a part of the machine Nowhere to turn for support of course A victim of loss divorce and we gloss the source Families forced to ignore the remorse Acting like lines were never crossed And short right before they abort Right before they distort you need to breathe Think a stork and greed are what it takes to succeed And make it work Before the bottle swallows your dreams Hollow followers rest in pieces of the machine So recognize when you're struck you bleed You fill a cup find and the crutch you need So you clutch and grieve Never enough so you puff the trees Rush to feed on anything to crush the disease Saying please get me doped up Call hopes bluff till the ropes tied too tight To be alright and your throats shut Everything blown up in their face while you post up Laughing over the end of it all give a toast to love You f**ing dying or what? Living forever a must Who's got it better than us? Let's let their rhetoric touch Our very essence and flood Until we're drowning in bucks Until we're found in the trash With hands slashed and cut For mention, attention learning a lesson? Or self reflection? Without discretion? lack of direction? Lack of invention? so reckless? Nothing invested? f** it What's meant to be is Never meant to be prevented Life is ups and life is downs but I Understand what I'm living for now When you feel your dreams come apart at the seams Wear your heart on your sleeves Don't be a part of the machine
