System Divide - The Collapse lyrics

Tracks
01. Purity In Imperfection
This everlasting energy that drives us further to the end
It proves fatal, vital to be
Incomplete is to live and perfection is death
We are all marvhing martyrs in this hole called earth
We all crawl our way through life to live
Bred to consume and to breedm to bleed
Striving for a life of perfection
Unable to see what we really are
Convince ourselves that there is a point to breathe
A vision of salvation that keeps us striving for the cause
Is it pointless?
Devoid of hope
Incomplete is to die and perfection is life
Telling lies despite yourself is fodder for the weak
Striving for a life of perfection
Unable to see what we really are
Convince ourselves that there is a point to breathe
What is man but a self proclaimed evolved animal
Following pointless rules and fooling itself its own
Existence is of any relevance to this world, at all
Idiocracy, reality a self fulfilling prophecy
A recurring nightmare of goals you can't achieve
Striving for a life of perfection
Unable to see what we really are
Recurring nightmare of goals you can't achieve
Unable to see what we really are
Recurring nightmare of goals you can't achieve
02. The Apex Doctrine
Brainwashed and programmed
Begging for approval, what approval?
We crave things out of reach
A vicious circle of social needs
My own enemy is me
Fate twisted by metal, my mind has been torn
A scorching reality, a twisted hate resides in me
Through gears and bone it grinds its way
The releasing of a plague - reality
Through compulsive urges, another man is born
Life has come crashing before my eyes
As the person deep within me dies
Transcending all
Fate twisted by metal, my mind has been torn
My own enemy is revealed
My own enemy is me
Debilitating reality, is there a point, am I even awake?
I am nonimpotent, am I poisoned beyond the point?
Now don't disappoint them and do what you're told
Like cattle to the slaughter, no will to oppose
Independence denied
Inside me, victim of a raging war
Inside me, the person I was before
Inside me, I am lost in this maze
Inside me, caught in a tragic phase
Within me, release myself from denial
I'm no longer begging for approval
Inside me, I am lost in this maze
Inside me, caught in a tragic phase
How do I release the rage?
Now don't disappoint them and do what you're told
Like cattle to the slaughter, no will to oppose
Into an emptier void
We crave things out of reach
A empty void of social needs
04. (N)Ether
Dazed of effort
Formless, emotionless and flawed
We crawl back into the dark
Of a cold comfort, yet again we are withdrawn
We stand in line
Approaching the light that will change our lives
Yet we still crave things we cannot have
Overcome by greed until the bitter end
Was it too bright today?
Broke a window of opportunity?
Dazed of effort
Formless, emotionless and flawed
Did desire go to ravenous?
Still you're no step closer to tell us
Of your fabled times, left empty on the side
We stand in line
Approaching the light that will change our lives
Yet we still crave things we cannot have
Overcome by greed until the bitter end
All the weakness that comes before me
Forcing me to fall into the void
Left by our world
Into the (n)ether - we all fall
Into the (n)ether - into the void
Non existing ether - heaven forlorn
We all fall - into the void
Defied
We all fall - into the void
