Guilty by Association - mdfmk lyrics
from the album “mdfmk”
NOW
Don’t believe in everything you hear, don’t believe in everything you read,
Don’t believe in everything you see, don’t believe in me.
Don’t believe in anything you know, don’t believe there’s somewhere you can go,
Don’t believe in anybody else, don’t believe in yourself.
What goes around will come around and after all we’ll all fall down.
No one here is anyone and in a while we’ll all be gone.
This is now, here and now.
Don’t believe in anything that’s old, don’t believe in anything you’re told,
Don’t believe in anything that’s new, no one here believes in you.
Don’t believe that anybody cares, don’t believe that anything is fair,
Don’t believe that anything’s for real, don’t believe what you feel.
What goes around will come around and after all we’ll all fall down.
No one here is anyone and in a while we’ll all be gone.
This is now, here and now.
Don’t believe you’ll find your way back home, don’t believe you’re something on your own,
don’t believe there’s something you can do, don’t believe your dreams could come true.
RABBLEROUSER
System breakdown imminent, nature’s gone belligerent,
Pilot error preprogrammed, oh that human element.
Driven by testosterone, adrenaline and pheromone,
Crowning glory of creation, superhuman incarnation.
Failure is man’s fate, a blacklist of mistakes, nothing’s what it seems, blown to smithereens.
Commandeer, own your fear, associate and integrate, a rabble-rouser in your face.
A proclamation of defence, the outrage of the innocent,
Unyielding to the consequence, a rabble-rouser til the end.
Fight, rabble-rouser, fight!
Determined til the end, ruthlessly and violent, ruler of the earth, subordinate the universe.
Commandeer, own your fear, associate and integrate, a rabble-rouser in your face.
A proclamation of defence, the outrage of the innocent,
Unyielding to the consequence, a rabble-rouser til the end.
Fight, rabble-rouser, fight!
System breakdown imminent, nature’s gone belligerent,
Pilot error preprogrammed, oh that human element.
Living out the big illusion, evolution, revolution,
Time and time and time again, life is short and God is man.
GET OUT OF MY HEAD
Forget what you’ve been told, conceal the truth you know.
The phoenix fights desire, and you know just what I mean.
In my cells, you’re in my soul, what you can’t touch you’ll never hold.
You ask, beg, you plead, get out of my head.
Just a little too late, been so long, got to do a double take.
I don’t remember your face, it’s only words and the way that we relate.
Don’t belong, don’t believe, mind in motion makes me weep,
Twisting til I transmutate, reinstate, deactivate,
Colossal information, short circuit detonation, get out of my head.
Sink deep, trip switch is on the blink,
Divide, conquer, what you will is what you bring on.
Emotions flight, red comet glare ignite, free fall, against yourself you fight.
Get out of my head. (no letting go)
GASOLINE
Eye to eye, face to face, soul to soul, blow by blow,
Piece by piece, you get the picture, beat by beat, starting to make sense,
Step by step, you’re getting closer, inch by inch, slowly sinking in.
And you ache, and you bleed, can’t talk, you can’t sleep,
Know who you are, don’t conform anymore.
Burn the bridge, stall the machine, cut those ties, come kiss the guillotine,
Blow your mind, break the routine, leave everything behind, come taste the gasoline.
Row by row, side by side, round by round, a field of killing, six feet down, without hands.
Burn the bridge, stall the machine, cut those ties, come kiss the guillotine,
Blow your mind, break the routine, leave everything behind, come taste the gasoline.
TORPEDOES
There goes the neighbourhood, and somehow you knew it would,
Cause you understand Armageddon’s right around the bend.
You got your fortune right in your hands, you do what you got to do,
Cause you got that attitude, and you say goodbye as easy as most people tell a lie.
You choose no options, you do or die.
Goddamn the torpedoes, it’s time to run away with the sideshow.
Full speed right ahead, don’t stop, you can sleep when you’re dead.
That’s just the way it goes, that’s how the river flows,
If you stay stone cold, chances are your options will unfold.
All that glitters turns into gold.
Goddamn the torpedoes, it’s time to run away with the sideshow.
Full speed right ahead, don’t stop, you can sleep when you’re dead.
Be proud to deviate, it’s time to instigate,
Dictate your own fate, you’re about to detonate (see the world obliterate).
STARE AT THE SUN
The ego that feeds you, ties you up and suffocates
Your favourite little monkey, drags you down and complicates you.
Love and hate, the combination won’t survive the separation,
Soul and body coexist, face the antagonist.
At the right place, at the right time, how does it feel?
Don’t take this the wrong way, don’t hold it to up scrutiny.
You got more than you could ask for, but none of what you need,
So don’t take this the wrong way, but nothing is for free,
It’s only an illusion, impossibility, don’t take this the wrong way,
When you stare at the sun, what do you see?
The dislocation, confusion, total lack of destination,
Nothing left to ask for, greed exceeds all moderation,
Mind over matter, the singing lady’s getting fatter,
Lock the bunker, kill the lights, reality is kept outside.
When the right price makes the right deal, you don’t disagree,
Down the wrong way of a one-way dead-end street.
Don’t take this the wrong way, don’t hold it to up scrutiny.
You got more than you could ask for, but none of what you need,
So don’t take this the wrong way, but nothing is for free,
It’s only an illusion, impossibility, don’t take this the wrong way,
When you stare at the sun, what do you see?
A million excuses to avoid compatibility, a humble disposition wrapped up in animosity,
Suffer the dilemma, choose involuntarily, stare at the sun, what do you see?
BE LIKE ME
I hear you speaking loud and clear but I still can’t understand.
I think I’d rather kill myself than meet your demands.
I never needed reason to reason with my mind.
I can see the future and today is a good day to die.
I need new enemies, I need new strategies, I need the pain to feel something.
I need to shed some skin to be like me again, a brand new me.
I read the writing on the wall but the message is all wrong.
I got the world inside my head and it’s ticking like a bomb.
I never needed justice to justify myself, I can see the future and it looks a lot like hell.
I need new enemies, I need new strategies, I need the pain to feel something.
I need to shed some skin to be like me again, a brand new me.
Flip the switch, pull the plug, fell inside the hole I dug.
Walk the walk, crash and burn, another stone I have to turn.
TRANSMUTATION
I wasn’t sure if I could go that far, but I never thought that I’d crash so hard.
Come undone, fall apart.
I didn’t realize what I’d found but it hit me right when I hit the ground,
Screamed at me without a sound.
Straight lie to say I’m surprised, just totally stunned, paralysed,
Emotionless, hypnotised.
Something inside of my head got way too good at being bad.
In place of hope there should be fear, there’s signs and signals everywhere,
Transmutated information, transmutating the equation.
No clue what exactly occurred, but the vision’s fogged and the memory’s blurred,
I’m hearing things I’ve never heard.
Don’t know how long it’s been, but something new crawls under my skin,
Something strange creeping in.
In place of hope there should be fear, there’s signs and signals everywhere,
Transmutated information, transmutating the equation.
World is alluding, illusion is ruling, you are denied here.
Transmutation is consuming, transmutate.
Shapeshift of a punished mind, another broken heart beating overtime,
Intertwined serpentine.
Full force accelerate, don’t hesitate,
Transmutated information, transmutating the equation.
World is alluding, illusion is ruling, you are denied here.
Transmutation is consuming, transmutate.
Get away, got to get away.
©ONTROL¿
Fight the power and the power will fight back, you’re only as good as the system you hack.
If you become a problem you will be replaced, banned, shut down, erased.
The world has capsized, gone erratic, constitutional rights have dissolved into static.
The truth is based on misinformation, reality is only a hallucination.
The revolution will be synthesised.
Another decade gone terribly wrong effectively affecting generations to come.
We only buy into what we can sell and we only want to protect you from yourself.
While you fall on your face for the media hype, we’re busy creating a new stereotype.
Amending the story to keep it intact and make sure our vision accommodates fact.
Do you know who owns and controls the station you’re watching? Does it matter?
The revolution will be synthesized.
Corporate wars versus plastic celebrity, competing for headlines with pills for virility.
Ulterior motives in a shroud of secrecy, the Holy Grail is market supremacy.
Killing machines for destruction and mayhem,
Can we pity the victims if we don’t even know them?
If anything goes wrong, we blame the middleman,
Cause we’re not gonna stray from the agenda at hand.
Do you know who owns and controls the station you’re watching? Does it matter?
The revolution will be synthesized.
HYDRO-ELECTRIC
Float, flushed, flowing like a riptide, suffer this calamity,
Drift, swim, hovering beside you, question my humanity.
It’s a complex state, another dimension, blind as I sink to the other side,
Calling me waking to a hurricane, crush wave, feels like I could flatline.
Thermal fluorescence is all I remember, succumb, I surrender to this.
Here to eternity, not a reality, only the pulse of insanity, bombastic high.
I thrive on this disease, liquefy subzero freeze.
Initiate, you germinate, it’s you that moves me, hydroelectric.
Dive deep down, you dominate me.
Invite, induce and violate, intoxicate, hydroelectric, you dominate me.
It’s the ebb and flow, eternal connection, a trickle of rain shrouding the delta,
Calling me, waking to a hurricane, watery grave, cryogenic shelter.
A broken reflection on the surface of never, from here to forever and back,
Total viscosity into fluidity, only the pulse of infinity, bombastic high.
I thrive on this disease, liquefy subzero freeze.
Initiate, you germinate, it’s you that moves me, hydroelectric.
Dive deep down, you dominate me.
Invite, induce and violate, intoxicate, hydroelectric, you dominate me.
WITCH HUNT
Bolts of lightning out of the blue, without forewarning the heat is on you,
Watch what you say, the phone may be tapped,
Under heavy surveillance, looks like you’re trapped,
Under investigation, whether guilty or not, without your own doing you’re part of the plot,
Trying to hide, going underground, just a matter of time until you will be found.
(witch hunt) Guilty by association, systematic defamation,
Process of elimination, demonised and sacrificed.
The noose is tightening, there’s no return, moral cleansing, free thinking must burn.
This is serious, your face in the mud, the end of the story is written in blood.
Freeze, down on your knees, beaten and bound, tarred and feathered, they parade you around,
The media is feasting, your face on the news, it’s a feeding frenzy, a mob on the loose.
(witch hunt) Guilty by association, systematic defamation,
Process of elimination, demonised and sacrificed.
(witch hunt) Guilty by association, merciless interrogation,
Ill-reputed, executed, which hunt? Burn that witch!
You’ve always been different, you’ve spoken your mind,
Set yourself apart, now they hate your kind,
A foreign element, the unknown factor, an alien component, the Hannibal Lecter.
It doesn’t matter what you say or do, there is no justice, no future for you.
Because you’re the scapegoat, you are to blame, this is your life, fifteen minutes of shame.
(witch hunt) Guilty by association, systematic defamation,
Process of elimination, demonised and sacrificed.
(witch hunt) Guilty by association, methodical eradication,
Crucified by morning light, which hunt? Burn that witch!

MISSING TIME
Black is everything, pull me right out of reality, the emptiness that’s me.
Black is everything, put me right out of my misery, do what you want to me.
Life outside goes on, the world is crashing inside out, gently hacking off the hinges.
Erase the space, erase the memory, what I don’t know will never hurt me,
Cannot forget, cannot remember, disinformation is forever. (missing time)
Black is everything, I’ve got the answer right in front of me, it’s everything I see.
Time outside moves on, the world I know is crumbling down, bringing to a lost sensation.
Erase the space, erase the memory, what I don’t know will never hurt me,
Cannot forget, cannot remember, disinformation is forever. (missing time)
