Angry Machines Lyrics
(1996)
(Lyrics to the Full Album on one page)

Institutional Man

Inside the walls I've made
To keep out all who reach for me
I might have lost my way
And I can't come out again

Don't come around here anymore
You may infect yourself
Don't ever cross this line
You could see monsters in your mind
There just like me

Have I erased all sense of touch
I don't feel anything
Sometimes they say I need
Sometimes I think I need
Sometimes I know I need
New parts for my brain

Most dreams, they're black and white
But I must color mine
Each day's another end
Less night of screaming
Shouting at the outside
Someone let me in

Set me free now no-one can
Faces at the window
Stop the water, bags of sand
Institutional man

Sometimes they say I need
Sometimes I think I need
Sometimes I know I need
New parts for my brain

Set me free now no-one can
Faces at the window
Lock the cages, tie my hands
Institutional, institutional man

Don't Tell The Kids

Please, please, make love freeze
And break apart in the middle (of it)?
Then they could see the hate
When they separate
And taste the salt of their tears

No, no, it's all about experience
Control, you might as well be wood, no good

Why why, your questions die
In a shout and no attention
You might have said
That they both were dead
So put the puzzle away

But no, it's all about experience
Control, they're gonna give you none, no fun

Don't tell the kids, they'll never understand it
Don't tell the kids, don't waste your time, no

Get back, it's a heart attack
And the planet needs a doctor
We can tell it looks like hell
But they make us close our eyes

No, it's all about experience
And control, you might as well be stone, alone

Don't tell the kids, they'll never understand it
Don't tell the kids, don't waste your time, yeah

Don't tell the kids, they'll never get the picture
Don't tell the kids, you waste your time, yeah

Don't tell the kids, they just don't understand it
Don't tell the kids, don't waste your time, time

Talk to the animals
Anyone who'll answer
Any fool will do
Just don't tell the kids

Black

Identify the real world
Investigate the real world
Intensify inspection
There for all to see

Here's what lies do
All things turn to
Black, black
Yeah, no

Now desensitize your heartbeat
Regulate the heartbeat
Sterilize all emotion
Justify your needs

Here's what love does
Dies and fades to
Black, black

There are no champions
Who saves the lonely ones
In the corner

Black, yeah
Black

You must identify
You and the real world
Interrogate the new real world
Then generate intention
Information, please

Here's what i know
Soon we'll all go
We must fade to
Black

Hunter Of The Heart

Hey liar, tell me your intentions are good
Knowing it could be a lie
I see how you rise
To question the eyes of anyone who promises pain

Contagious, something like a virus of love
Making the pleasure seem real

Another killing by the villain
Another body on the ground
Here comes the master of destruction again
I knew you from the start
Hunter of the heart

Cat crazy, never the predictable one
Asleep in the sun now the strike
Possession today, then send it away
After all the joys in the taking

Another beating by the villain
Another angel fallen down
Here comes the master of destruction again
Perfect for the part
Hunter of the heart

Another burning by the devil
And another diamond turned to glass
Here comes the master of destruction again
I knew you from the start
Hunter of the heart
Hunter of the heart

Stay Out Of My Mind

All you see down there
Could be yours for the taking
All your heart's desired
Would be yours but you don't want it
You don't want it
You keep telling me

Stay out of my mind
Stay out of my soul
I can't get you out of my life
So stay out of my mind
Stay out of my mind, yeah

What do you want from life
What do you keep living for
Is it worth the price
It'll cost you nothing
But you won't take it
You won't take it
You keep telling me

Stay out of my mind
Stay out of my soul
I can't get you out of my life
So stay out of my mind
Stay out of my mind

Stay out of my mind
Stay out of my soul
I can't get you out of my life
So stay out of my mind
Stay out of my mind

Big Sister

Who controls your mind

There have been changes
No more giving it all for free
There will be changes
Now woman is all you need
A-ah

Here is a number
You've been given an another name
We will be watching
One might fall but you'll all be blamed
Shame, shame

Here's big sister
We're big sister
Hear big sister
There's big sister
Dancing on your grave

Who controls your mind
Who's in charge of hearts
Who controls you time
We're in charge of you

There have been changes
Even mother's a soldier now
There have been changes
You can touch 'cause you don't know how
No

Here's big sister
We're big sister
Hear big sister
There's big sister
Dancing on your grave

Pretty faces, young and clean
Watching you from magazines
All they want is something more
Kill the king and then we'll crown the whore

Here's big sister
We're big sister
Hear big sister
There's big sister

Who controls your mind
In charge of hearts
Controls your time
In charge of you

Here's big sister
We're big sister
Control

Double Monday

When you're alone and the sun's gone down
One more time
Must you prentend that some light still shines
Sounds like double Monday
Yeah

Each time you think that you've just begun
It's the end
Oh, someone you love wants to just be friends
Sounds like double Monday
Yeah

Feels like snakes and spiders
Crawling up your body
Every someday double Monday

Like a fly against the wall
Just when you think you've seen it all you
You lose your special place to hide
So get ready for the ride, ride, ride
Yeah

Every someday double Monday

Golden Rules

Hush now children - lullaby
Steal what you can't borrow
Oh how brave you are
And your world has
Come so far

Are you saved
Have you been told
Right is the enemy
Too bad, too late

Write this down
(I) don't believe in sanity ???
Or reading the instructions
Throw 'em all away, hey

Golden rules, Sunday school
Crazy

Wheels go round
Angry machines, designing your destiny
Digital dreams, with no heart, no soul

Golden rules, Sunday school
You're all crazy now

Here's the situation
The rest are gettin' pretty
You're melting in the city

Father says to mother
Yeah, if you really wanna trash it
Go ahead and smash it

Are you saved
Now when you go to sleep tonight
One way or another
If you don't die before you wake
Do it unto others

Golden rules, made more fools
Sunday school, you're all crazy

Hush now children
Don't you cry
We've just killed tomorrow
How sad you are
That your world has gone too far

Dying In America

Once upon a high
The streets were gold and blue was
In the sky riders gone
Never could belong
Maybe you still can dream
Sleep through screams
While we're dying in America

Once upon a child
The carnival would stop and stay a-
While you were gone
Everything went wrong
Too soon, cartoon
Dying in America
Dying in America

In places where aces outnumber the queens
Jack is afraid of tomorrow
Colors are changing to red, white and green
As we all fall down

Once upon a hate
They told us they could fix it if we'd
Wait for awhile
Killing you with smiles
Maybe you still can dream
Sleep through screams
While we're dying in America
Dying in America

Sex, sex, sex
Even bigger, even better
Don't lose out, be a winner
Save more, save time and save now
One hundred thirty per cent American people
Would like to be like everyone else

God Hates Heavy Metal

[Japanese CD only]

One more nightmare
No place like home
You see a picture of angels
I see a nail in the wall

Make him over
No time to lose

And if you've heard this one before
Don't stop me
Don't stop me

We learn slowly
Evil's in the holy
Incidental
God hates heavy metal
So I know he must hate me

Lazy-crazy
Must be my name
Why are you running to nowhere
Why do you listen to noise

So if you've heard this all before
Please stop me
Please stop me

Live don't preach it
If you can't don't teach it
Accidental
God loves heavy metal
So I know he must want me

We learn slowly
Mind control is holy
Stir don't shake it
Move too fast you'll break it up
Incidental
God is heavy metal
So I know he must need me

This Is Your Life

Who cares what came before
We were only starlight
One day, then nevermore
Because we're whispers in the wind

Once upon a time
The world was never blind
Like we are

Right now it seems
You're only dreams and shadows
If wishes could be eagles how you'd fly

This is your life
This is your time
What if the flame won't last forever
This is your here
This is your now
Let it be magical

Who cares what came before
We're only starlight

Once upon the time
All the world was blind
Like we are

This is your life
This is your time
Look at your world
This is your life
