Iconoclasm is dead (I am)
You're being born to be bred (I am)
You let the hate squirm around in your bellies but it's not metabolizing (But I am)
They hate and kill on command (I am)
They never stop their demands (I am)
But I can see all the horrid dystopias, because we're living in them (I am)
I always wanted the things that I could never see
And every second I waste is one that you could leave
And for the reasons you don't, you used to believe
Until I get what i want, I'm not afraid of the-
Oh, you're not so tantalizing
Oh, you're not so tantalizing
They get their atom financed (I am)
They get their bloodless romance (I am)
Count your stars and wish on broken blessing but, it's all the same in the end (I am)
All their words are transplants (I am)
From all their law and their scams (I am)
The bitter beatings of cruciformed cosmonauts, they're all ruining your plan (Like I am)
I always wanted the things that I could never see
And every second I waste is one that you could leave
And for the reasons you don't, you used to believe
Until I get what i want, I'm not afraid of the-
World, give it to me right now, I want it fucking alive
We're so high, until everybody dies now
We're just lying, lying, lying
Oh, you're not so tantalizing
Oh, you're not so tantalizing
Your drones will hear what they wish (I am)
Their future doesn't exist (I am)
The money that you pay keeping appearances, you're no longer human (But I am)
Steal crops that you can't harvest (I am)
Your ethics have departed (I am)
You're starting wars cause you're gathering enemies, we have no real decisions (I am)
I always wanted the things that I could never see
And every second I waste is one that you could leave
And for the reasons you don't, you used to believe
Until I get what i want, I'm not afraid of the-
World, give it to me right now, I want it fucking alive
We're so high, until everybody dies now
We're just lying, lying, lying
Oh, you're not so tantalizing
Oh, you're not so tantalizing
Oh, you're not so tantalizing
Oh, you're not so tantalizing
I always wanted the things that I could never see
And every second I waste is one that you could leave
And for the reasons you don't, you used to believe
Until I get what i want, I'm not afraid of the-
World, give it to me right now, I want it fucking alive
We're so high, until everybody dies now
We're just lying, lying, lying
You're not so tantalizing
