Sadistik - Ghost in the Machine lyrics

I've been dancing on the quicksand for one too many moments Swallowing the sunshine and company I've chosen Is the company of wolves, underneath their clothing They just hide their sheepish smiles that are sunk beneath the ocean With the chitty-chitty bang bang, pretty city same pain Do I? Did he? Witty, will he really let his fangs hang? Amen, 'cause that statement's all but obvious And all I want to know is what it takes to show my godliness I'm defacing all the monuments In this lonely desert, there's no trace of Ozymandias And I don't know how many people catch the references Caught up in the revelry but still they lack the reverence Of standards like my skeletons or craft the saddest elegance 'Cause I can sink tsunamis that could probably crack the sediment And this is just an open, drunken, broken, sunken nothing Hoping that I'm something when the Reaper comes to sow Secrets of my soul are simply jagged Little pieces that'll finally show the truth if I can match it In a sequence, and they tell me that my eyes are simply windows to the soul But my window panes are only pain, here we go This is where you listen close, anaconda grips the throat Dancing with the devil and he's stepping on my mistletoes I'd give control if you can tell me it'll be alright 'Cause nothing ever lives and no one ever really dies I see the past in your eyes Drift by like rain clouds in the sky Wondering how you can turn back time Trying to leave your past behind The rain that falls on your face Washing away the tears that trace I cant see if I'm a sacred place Hidden in somewhere safe I'm over-pessimistic in this slumbered frame of mind Even rainbows are just another bank to climb Another waste of time, that I feel but can't kiss I feel like Atlas when the thunder breaks my spine I've spent eleven hours sinking in the mud And all I've done is paint your facial features with my blood 'Cause I've wasted half my life thinking I'm in love But it was just the side-effects of breathing ether in my lungs (yes) Man bites dog, gnaws his hands right off y'all Just can't fight off all of mankind's flaws, call Me atheist, a satanist or anti-god while I'll wait for this so place your bets 'til landslide fall off (?) And I'll watch, while the innocent shatters The Phoenix never comes to be risen from ashes We're all gone but there isn't a rapture And everything you loved was just visions of grandeur So I go to sleep (sleep), listen inactively To my heart beat (beat), is it a masterpiece? Or fool's gold, is feeling so cheap There's more than one way to go to and skin a catastrophe And actually, when the rose is red and caustic I'm just feeling like I'm frozen in these old, synthetic topics Where I'm dealing with the copacetic, open-ended logic That no one ever dies even though our flesh is tarnished I see the past in your eyes Drift by like rain clouds in the sky Wondering how you can turn back time Trying to leave your past behind The rain that falls on your face Washing away the tears that trace I cant see if I'm a sacred place Hidden in somewhere safe
