lyrics

The primacy of rage, overpowering
An endless list of lines that were crossed
A battle never fought but remembered
Opportunities to kill that were lost

Tap into that inner wild animal
He’s pacing at the bars of his cage
Tempted, salivating

So stunted by the codes that define us
Disconnected from the physical, the visceral
We deny ourselves the right to be human
To taste adrenaline and blood that would soothe us

Let. Go.
Your cancer is the self that you don’t fulfill
Using your potential against you

We have weakened our society, our culture
Atrophied our senses with comfort and structure

Patience kills lust and will

We’ve transposed independence for submission
Willingly suppressed our defiance with contrition

Obligated to pursue broken solutions
Operated by the frivolous, the whimsical
Biding time until the critical mass
Ready to administer destruction at last

Tap into that inner barbarian
He’s pacing at the boundaries of his land
Tempted, salivating

Wait long enough in silence
You’ll normalize compliance

Sheep will follow a shepherd
And dogs will lick at his hand
It’s the wolf who follows no master
In disgust he turns from the “man”

Sacrifice…
The creature comforts, the science of flesh
To wander wastelands as warriors
The once pariah now walks at the head
But shuns disciples and innocents
