Parasite

The machine's hammer and hum surrounds me
as every muscle aches
Thousands of hours memories rot together
with each moment you steal I'm more undone
Parasite
you feed on
our blood
Parasite
your need
is your weakness
We were not born
to serve you
We do not live
just to please you
Life is life's own end
Our light will burn all your lies
Parasite
You feed on
our Hate
Parasite
You can't swallow
our love
Defeat the parasite
inside yourself
Silence the leech inside
that fills you with doubt
Our value is intrinsic
not dictated by wealth
Lives are not stepping stones
not means to an end
Parasite
you won't take
my life
Parasite
time's on
our side

Feel The Saw
cut The body
Feel it slide
through the Neck
Your Existence
obstructs progress
Our Expansion
requires your destruction
Arrange your corpses
into homes for us
We'll warm our children
with your Bones

Train

Used to run that ball like a train
Thats how I got my name
No one could catch me
No one could touch me
And no one ever will...
Still runnin' like a train
Made a fortune on that dope trade
But I spent it all
Ol' Rico set me up
With his wires and his waggin' tongues
Still runnin' like a train
I got a son I never see
'cause he thinks I'm mean
'cause I hit his momma every day
Where it can't be seen
Still runnin' like a train

Degenerate Architecture
03:04
|
|||
|
Standing knee deep
in tangled weeds
that have have
overtaken
degenerate architecture
Am I really here?
No, I'm just thinking again...
But the scent of ruin
calls me back to you
We won't be like them will we?
Molding in our Tombs...
But what is not plastic,
one day must waste away...

Plastic Body, Carbon Copy, Simulacrum, Bed Crumb, in my.....
All our nerves are set end on end on end
there is nothing we can do
All our nerves they are set end on end
there is nothing we can do
We feel our body begin to...
and we know this decay
We feel our body begin to go
and we know this decay
And the end feels like its coming
as the waves wash over
we rushed the side of the mountain
as the waters rose high
Plastic Body Carbon Copy
We begin to decay
Replaced with nothing
there is nothing
We begin to decay
Plastic Body Carbon Copy
We are meant to decay
Touching Her
Touching Me
Touching the Devils Iron
Touching the Devils Iron
We are shadows now
Touching the Devils Iron
Carbon Copy Plastic Body
We are set to replace
And we start to Decay
I cry my own name
Just to stay the same
My body decays everyday
Nothing is ever the same
Grasping and Clawing and Grasping and Clawing
We are copies
We are copies of nothing
We are copies of nothing at all

Area Man recommends:
Headcrack
by Controlled Bleeding
Huge influence. It's hard to pick one record by them...one of the great underground groups of all time.

Bobuck Plays The Residents
by H.Fox - Bobuck
One of the geniuses behind The Residents. His solo work since (and just before) leaving the group has been fantastic. This album reinterprets some of his best work from the group.
go to album
I can't recommend anything Helios Creed touches enough. The last two albums are just as good as anything by the classic lineup.
