Marching to the cadence of a broken drum
The sun’s no longer shining over me or you
We’re bound and gagged by all the choices we’ve made
Power in the hands of the chosen few
Acting out the plot of someone else’s play
No matter what the leaders want you to think
The truth of what we’re watching all around us
A ship without a rudder is bound to sink
(Living, living, we’re living in the 21st century)
Are we really living?
Is this reason sound?
Read between the lines
We’re treading on unstable ground
Walk with blissful ignorance to what may be
Turning up a blind eye won’t save the day
Try to play a game of what you give and take
What you had before but now you’ve lost your way
Thrown into the thick of a decisive war
Where every single casualty had no defense
All those hopes and dreams of all the days gone by
Lay beneath the judgment of the present tense
(Living, living, we’re living in the 21st century)
Are we really living?
Is this reason sound?
Read between the lines
We’re treading on unstable ground

No Cause For Celebration

Ingest misinformation
No cause for celebration
People living in segregation
No cause for celebration
When promise has no station
No cause for celebration
Self righteous indignation
No cause for celebration
Bring others humiliation
No cause for celebration
Superficial validation
No cause for celebration
Bring unwilling instigation
No cause for celebration
Wander closer to damnation
No cause for celebration
Bring chaos to the nation
No cause for celebration
In crisis be a sensation
No cause for celebration
Ignore the indication
No cause for celebration
With moral debilitation
No cause for celebration
No cause for celebration
Edging closer to damnation
What do you believe?
What do you have in your mind?
The likeness you portray
Hides the emptiness inside
What will you demand?
When consequences will invade?
You will take the fall
On the fallacy you’ve made

Every time that I can see, a man that is no longer me
A shaky lip and frightened eyes, a face that I don’t recognize
I can’t feel the sense within, a stranger deep within my skin
Will someone find the place I’ve gone, or will the world just carry on
Life is so irregular
It never felt so hard to live
Pulling me under
Nothing more that I can give
Every sight seems so untamed, like every color is out of shade
A moment that just came and went, the aftermath is evident
I cannot shake these formless tales, it’s like a dream that’s off the rails
These pulsing tones, these swirling hues, I feel like I’m about to lose
Life is so irregular
It never felt so hard to live
Pulling me under
Nothing more that I can give
Life is so irregular
It never felt so hard to live
Pulling me under
Nothing more that I can give
Living is irregular
The oceans change their tide
Calling from beyond
Taking all that’s left inside

My dearest home
My dearest friend
What have you become?
It’s like we’ve reached an end
You are an empty shell
Devoid of your soul
A former beacon to all
Once hallowed and whole
Where have you gone?
Where do we go, now?
Where have you gone?
What do we do?
Born to shine
Not to die
When did you lose your light
Time to turn
Towards the end
No more with the will to fight
What were you to think
It’s not like before
Your spark was snuffed
When the world beat down your door
Empty words and dirty thoughts
No power from within
Callous people surrounding you
A game you cannot win
Born to shine
Not to die
When did you lose your light
Time to turn
Towards the end
No more with the will to fight

Disappearing Girl

(the man)
As I try to close the book
Delete you from my phone
The feeling always seems to stay
I’m once again alone
True before and true again
Whenever will I learn
No matter what I say or do
I lose at every turn
(the woman responds)
Ha, I wish I could stop laughing
You lose because that’s what you choose
You ask, but then you stop listening
And I, for one, am done with your point of view
The common denominator of your pain is you, babe
(the man)
You said I never understand
That you have feelings too
You say that I’m a broken soul
A man you only barely knew
What must I do to avoid this
The fate dealt from the world
Here upon this black November
You’re just another disappearing girl
(the woman responds)
You don’t know, and you never will
I do have feelings, but you? You don’t feel
I refuse to play your silly games
And I won’t be blamed for your willful self-sabotage
I disappear because I choose to
You only have yourself to blame

Zero-Sum

Winning, losing
Adding, subtracting
Rising, falling
Expanding, contracting
Walls closing in around my eyes
Wracked with doubt within my mind
Rushing down the road to nothing
Paranoia clouds my path
Breaking down from what I see
I don’t know what I should be
Shame rains down on the life I lead
Crushing blows of society
Winning, losing
Adding, subtracting
Rising, falling
Expanding, contracting
My beliefs are all for naught
Cries of anguish all around
All I’ve built up to become
Comes all crashing to the ground
Breaking down from what I see
I don’t know what I should be
Shame rains down on the life I lead
Crushing blows of society
Society, Society
Society, what have you done to me?

Waking up within our world
And breathing in new air
Finding purpose in our minds
And fire in our hearts
What has come before today
Can only be laid to rest
The past can only do so much
It will haunt no more
Dispense reflections, and come to terms
With what was said and done
The bird has learned to fly at at last
Into an endless sky
So look around
How far the world has come
No backing down
It’s all for everyone
The voices heard
A song for all to hear
So speak these words
Tomorrow is now
Tomorrow is now
Given power to achieve
And hope for something more
Resurgent in our forward progress
Turning back the tide
Build a place your children will take
To make their very own
Energy is truly timeless
When you pass it on
Don’t try any looking back
Your body’s possessed by a track
Carry on towards the future
Don’t be left behind
So look around
How far the world has come
No backing down
It’s all for everyone
The voices heard
A song for all to hear
So speak these words
Tomorrow is now
Tomorrow is now
Everybody speak these words
Tomorrow is now

Do you see who I really am?
Beyond transgressions that made me fail?
Do you think that you can lead me
Beyond these things I know so well?
Do you feel the weight I bear?
The burdens of a life astray
Laying bare my soul for you
Will you bring us a new day?
Will you take me to the stars?
If I asked you to
Will we see another world?
Like we’ve wanted to
Can we save the spark inside?
As we hope to do
Will we be forever more?
If I asked you to
I know you have darkness too
Everyone has pain inside
We are stronger as a whole
In one another we confide
Is there a such thing as a future
Where everything is strong and bright
Will we at last reach a time
Where you and I will be alright
Will you help me move beyond
What I used to do
Can we change the fated tide
Like we need it to
Can we face the world’s trials
With our faith anew
The circle coming full
Because of me and you
Now, after so long
A journey throughout time
I make my way

So many great tracks all across the whole album. I don't think Bill Leeb knows how to disappoint.

This is the closest thing we have right now to a new Skinny Puppy album. And, Bill, about your lyrics on that first track--no one is waging war on Europe. European nations, however, are actively supporting genocide in Palestine.
