I never believed what the headlines say
I never believed what my eyes betray
I never believed in the greater good
I never believed people do as they should
All I know is survive or cease to be
All I know is the moment that needs to breathe
Call it faith call it coming undone
You better learn to kill what you can't outrun
This is the year hope fails to set you free
Always beware where the bets are placed
Always beware there's a horse in the race
Always beware whose gotta save face
Never think you won't be replaced
All I know is survive or cease to be
All I know is the moment that needs to breathe
Call it faith call it coming undone
You better learn to kill what you can't outrun
This is the year hope fails to set you free

Ask a man to think, hear what he'll say
World's getting bleaker, everyday
Facade has some cracks, pick up the slack
He holds your life in his hands, you better take it back
You can't get your fix
Get your kicks
Your life unlit
There's warnings out there if you pay them mind
There's children out there left behind
Chalk it up to chaos it just ain't right
But you keep your head down, live your life
You can't get your fix
Get your kicks
Your life unlit

THERE NEVER WAS A FULL MOON X 8
LIGHTS OUT / ENGINES OFF
BRAKES ON THE RIVER’S EDGE
EVERYTHING STOPS
DIG FOR TREASURE BUT THE PRESSURE WON’T STOP
YOU’RE BEING IGNITED BUT THE FLAME INTERRUPTS
MY GOD!!! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE??
YOU BLED OUT IN THE ALLEY BEFORE YOU WERE BORN
A WASTED GRIN ON A HUMORLOUS SKULL
YOU’LL NEVER FIND PEACE BEFORE A FULL MOON KILL
THERE NEVER WAS A FULL MOON
THE FACT REFLECTED IN YOUR WOUNDS
THERE NEVER WAS A SUNRISE
THE FACT REFLECTED IN YOUR EYES
THERE NEVER WAS A STILLNESS
A MOVEMENT PUSHED INTO AN ILLNESS
DELIVERED LIKE A CRISIS
YOU PAINT BLOOD OVER WHERE YOUR LIFE IS
PRESENT YOUR AGENDA
TO A SECRET OFFENDER
A BRINGER OF PLAGUE
OR A MONEY LENDER
A SNAKE IN THE GRASS
IS A LIFE’S ACHEIVEMENT
THE PARTY YOU WILL THROW
FOR YOUR OWN BEREAVEMENT
TAKE YOUR OWN PRECISIONED PROXY
LIE THROUGH TEETH TO MAKE IT TOXIC
WIPE THE ASH OFF BURNT DEVICES
THE SMOKE ENGULFS YOUR SMILING CRISIS…….
(THERE NEVER WAS A FULL MOON)
HIDE YOUR WEAPON FOR AN INNOCENT SECOND
BOMBS AND CIRCUITS
WHERE THE BLOOD IS DEAFENED
A VOICE LIKE A PISTOL;
A SLIP OF THE WRIST
A MERCINARY LOVER
THAT YOU CAN’T RESIST

Working for the man
Working for the day
Working on the dough
Work to get paid
Working on the weekend
Work to get laid
Working on my waistline
Workin on my game
Working on my tan
Working on my pickup
Working on my brain
Trying to get leg up
Working me insane
Working on a shakeup
Working the room
Working on a breakup
Working out the details
Working in my car
Working on my cell phone
Working in bars
Working on sadness
Working on guilt
Working on madness
Working on the build
Working all the angles
Working late nights
Working on the plan
Working on my rights
Working out the details
Working out the plan
Working on myself
And I'm Working on the man

Everybody's got complications
Everybody's gotta know they're right
Everybody's got stipulations
Everybody wants to take up a fight
Somebody's going to pay a price
Somebody's going to have regrets
Somebody's going to answer for
All the things that are left unsaid
Everybody all works their angles
Everybody all makes some noise
Everybody wants creature comforts
Everybody wants their little toys
We are the bastards of the world
Thoughts and prayers and packaged vengeance
You will not save yourself with good intentions
Trust me I'll seize the day
Trust me I won't forget
Trust me with your precious time
Trust me with all the things you said
There's a place you cannot hide
There's a place inside your head
I'll paint it with a broader brush
Then I'll paint your whole world red
We are the bastards of the world....
Intentions...
Relentless...

Absolutely epic old school Chicago industrial. All of the great vibes and hooks of the Wax Trax scene but fresh and unique. Brilliant programming, great vibe.

Pressure Mine
by Author & Punisher
Dark electronic music gets warped and clobbered on the latest from Author & Punisher. Brooding, cutting, and claustrophobic.
