	DESIRE LP/CD/TAPE LYRICS: PARALYZED replete with abundance, wallow in stagnation. echoes of motivation discarded with the tools. so used to these colours that they go unmarked. no need to stretch your arms for the answers that never fall. paralyzed we keep on living. paralyzed but we're still breathing. did you notice what we've been given? ever feel like there's something missing? i can still see you twitching, claiming that you never felt better. paralyzed. OUR NEW LENINS heed our new lenins, our new party who rarely point their fingers, knowledge sparkles in their eyes and our lives are full of wonders. just don´t ask what we are heading for. it is written, this is just the start. heed our new party of supply and demand, guided by the loving invisible hand. spread the gospel and testify now. rest assured everything will go as planned. it is written, we have gone so far. stand in awe of the stars shooting through the cyberspace aiming at your heart. the lines have blurred in this righteous battle for our minds, for our lives. heed our new lenins or crack. punishments are rarely undeserved and our lives are full of wonders. the waves of virtue are washing on our shores. my wounds of doubt have healed and the scars are medals on my resolution. the ranks are closing in in this righteous battle for our minds, for our lives. LUXURY OF INDIFFERENCE would you even care to know what lies behind my anger or would you rather fill the silence with tired pleasantries? would you spare a moment of your precious time to give a few thoughts to a word like alienation, to a word like frustration? would it be too much to ask, to think, to say? too much to take when the havens we built spit out our weary bones. a brave new day preceding another cathode ray sermon. windows on a world that never existed. to offer a bit of comfort, just some solace. let us have enough sand to bury our heads into. please let us have the luxury of indifference. how far would you go? how far, how low, how deep would you go? how far would you go to forget it all? THERE´S ALWAYS SOMEONE continual degradation is staring right at my face. my value is decreasing in this race that bends its rules at will. there´s always someone waiting patiently to be next in line. there´s always someone who is content with less than me. looking at casualties, lining sides of information highways. something is vanishing and the names never mattered. we´re worth more than this. adjusting, amusing ourselves to death. we´re worth more than this. i´m not as humble as you might expect. feast upon my future, accuse me of gluttony. my patience might just fail me now. TRUTHS YESTERDAY years fall upon me and i know time is destined to win. maybe i misread the signs, one wrong turn too many, all signs leading me astray. still sinking into the quicksand of a life that shifted through my hands. what can you see here? where certainties used to grow, suspicions remain. so we held hands and called for a storm. i'm not bleeding as i tread on the splinters that were greeted as truths yesterday. not afraid of mirrors, i can bear the reflections of the folly of this age. i'm longing for some silence in this barrage of white noise. what you treasure nurtures the seed of my defeat. A PROMISE numb, viewing my surroundings with unbelieving eyes. how did i get here? i don't care to remember, i don't even want to know. take it as a promise, there's still anger to be found. take it as a promise, never mind my cynical smile. i'm running short of illusions. unable to grasp the language of the prophets of capital. the blows are still raining, the towel's waiting to be thrown in. found myself longing for what may never have been. why whisper when you can scream? but we don't want to upset anyone, or do we? FILTER grab me by the neck and rub my nose into my own hypocricy. it´s painful to admit that i´m plagued with shit. this shit i thought i rid myself of. kick me again. keep me on my toes i swear i try to learn. i will find it and won´t let it wither away. something of the dreams we filter into here and now. the spark is still glowing. i will find it. my hands are bleeding from all this groping. taught by today not forgotten by tomorrow. the oasis of west. it makes me too restless. the way they stress their meaning it just kills all the words. they echo through the silent streets. perfume all the air we breath. it´s all too easy to share the bed. i´ll recognize it and won´t let it slip away. something of the dreams we filter into here and now. the spark is still glowing. i know my hands are bleeding from all this groping. DESIRE i have my roots in the soil that dissent fertilized but again i´m at loss for words. i want to keep my mouth shut. the solutions aren´t what they used to be. reclaim the fire. reclaim the desire. would you help me to reclaim the fire? could you help me to reclaim the desire? subsidized boredom, wrapped in repetition. we´re always grateful for more rope to hang ourselves with. failure lurks where courage doesn´t dare to show. I´M ALL SMILES WHEN YOUR PLANS COME CRASHING DOWN i´m all smiles when your plans come crashing down. our dreams beyond your comprehension. unable to see beyond the borders of here now, you´ve only seen flashes of our potential, we´re holding on to, of what we embrace within. i´ll save my ammunition, i might need it later on. keep your gifts, i´ve seen their consequenses. take these values, peel off the lies. take a sip of your poison and spit it right back at your face. recollections. there´s plenty i´ve forgotten. throbbing, glowing, but i have forgiven nothing. <-BACK TO THE LYRICS
