Nothing comes easier than madness in the world today
Mass paranoia is a mode not a malady
Yeah, I'd like to watch a 1000 cable channels but there's nothing on
And the high speed connection's monitored daily by the pentagon
These things are seldom what they seem
I'm not inclined to enjoy my dreams [Won't go away]

[No peace] No peace [and No friends] and No friends
[We trace] We Trace the mortal edge [with no defence]
To state the obvious
This world is perilous for us
No sense [No sense] and No guide [No guide]
Ain't it beautiful to be alive [Yeah right]
I won't resign before the struggle ends
So I'll construct this sound defense

We are the prey and culture is the predator
I'm running out of time where conditions are positional
Shadows of a doubt cast reluctance and depravity
There's got to be a way to overcome this grim reality
Is there an option left for me
I'm not immune to despondency
There's no way

[No peace] No peace [and No friends] and No friends
[We trace] We Trace the mortal edge [with no defence]
To state the obvious
This world is perilous for us
No sense [No sense] and No guide [No guide]
Ain't it beautiful to be alive [Yeah right]
I won't resign before the struggle ends
So I'll construct this sound defense

There's a signpost on the corner
and it keeps everybody safe
We were all made in the shade

And your mother's in the kitchen
where she's patching all the cracks in the wall
We never had a care in the world
oh - ohhh

[No Shame] Too much to sacrifice [And no life] It's hard to recognize
[Just Black] Traps that compromise [And White] Obscuring deadly alibis
[My Plans] It's combinational [Decide] The pressure's so intense
So I'll construct this sound defense

[No Way] Nothing's plainer than the madness in the world today
[No Sign] I must conceal myself and steal myself and break away
[No Graves] I seek initiative in matters that are black and white
[No Sense]
So I'll construct this sound defense
This song is from the album "The Process Of Belief".
