Are we all idiots?
For fleeting Dopamine hits
Play dumb
Play dead
Play dumb
Too late
Those bastards won
They cut our content
And now i'm paying to rent
Despite the 60
Dollars I already spent.
I try to close my eyes
Pretend they don't exist
But you keep buying them
hand over hand over hand over fist
My money, for monopoly bucks
Wasn't the game enough?
Cosmetics, skins and buffs
And people really pay money to see this stuff?
You're not supposed to do this
Stand by while they take the piss
But you don't give a shit
This ain't the worst of it
Nostalgic franchise you woefully miss
A corpse propped up as a fucking live service
The only thing that
That makes you wet
Is in my wallet
And you already got it
They'll mash their dirty fingers on mommy's iphone
They will forget they subbed, take out a bank loan.
We'll bend the rules, avoid the crucifix
we don't use that term, surprise mechanics
We got in our trap
I love it when money falls into my lap.
go fuck yourself and your premium currency
You fuckin' know that I ain't made of money
I paid to play, I didn't steal
Now you're giving me my property piecemeal

Under Your Bed

I am a rat, I know
Radioactive glow
My pretty garbage mask
It tricked you real, real fast
You let me in your home
I see in monochrome
I see in red
I see in red
He's barely holding on
I used to be good like
The one you thought I was
He sounds so quiet now
He's barely holding on
You give and you give
You give and you give
You give and you give
You give and you give
You give it all away
It's gone eventually
That light won't always stay
I learned the hard way
The well has gone dry
We gave the college try
This bitter, cosmic joke
I'd rather fucking choke
I don't remember how
I came to be in here
I got you hanging from strings
I am a puppeteer
This is my theater
Inside a vacant garden shed
These are the movies that
I play in my head
I'm sure it's funny now
The grain that broke the plow
It's been so obvious
Feelings insomnious
I am the creature bred
From crimes in infrared
I wish you saw the truth
The beast under your bed
You give and you give
You give and you give
You give and you give

I hate this time
It's not my best
I've severed the link
And killed the rest.
It's like that film
You know the one
The worst reality
A black yarn unspun
I felt it crack
Her velvet neck
Covered in sweat
I know i'm a wreck
This ain't the one
This ain't my time
I'm stuck here now
I guess that's fine
It's not professional but
when has it ever been?
This polyamory within me
it has no underpinning
You're young and dumb
You look like fun
What if I was in your room?
I didn't mean to send that
I think my finger slipped
It's just the internet
And I know you kids you love my content
I really like you too
I think you're cute
that's my one minute review
Take off your uniform
Get the angle right
Zelda ain't here tonight
Oh no
I guess they know
The things I've done.
What I do for fun
The masquerade
This whole charade
I guess i'm fucked
But that's what I get
My lies and tricks
undone with my prick
I am the leader
The senpai
The father
The addict
The asshole
The victim
The sailor
I am the leader
The senpai
The father
The addict
The asshole
The victim
The sailor
They're just playing video games
Thy're just playin their funny games
I'm just that funny man on the internet
That wants in your head
They're just playing video games
Thy're just playin their stupid games
I'm just that funny man on the internet
That wants in your bed

I found a message in my old DMs
Indoctrination, it's coming for them
With every day their innocence dies
They've been changed
Got a crazy look in their eyes
Jacked in
Hooked up, within
Download
Blue pills, endorphins
A Matrix training montage
Fucking with Satan in their parents garage.
We've been on to their tricks since '76
Mass murder of bricks, via joysticks
And then in '92 it was bloody kung-fu
Brainwashing our kids after school
Now it's '99 and we can't see the line
We got demons to thank for Columbine
Shit gets blurry after 2003
So many bodies spilling hot coffee
They've got a rifle, some wire to garrote
Combat boots, likes anime and a long black trench coat
That's not my son
That's not my daughter
Your conspiracies, they don't hold fucking water
I beat that little shit
When he would throw a fit
Why would I listen?
To some ugly thin skin
We're like the cigarettes
My dad went out to get
This world will stamp you out
What are you crying about?
They've got a rifle, some wire to garrote
Combat boots, likes anime and a long black trench coat
That's not my son
That's not my daughter
Your conspiracies, they don't hold fucking water
Come to mention, I guess we always knew
No friends, stayed inside
A couple screws loose
Blue light flickering
Psi-Ops by computer
Could it be my belt or the first person shooters?

please don't leave it gets better I promise
why do I cough up blood?
signs of an abduction
why can't I enjoy anything anymore?
drive thru coffee
is this normal?
drive thru coffee
how to trace a phone call
drive thru coffee
what does my nightmare mean?
a CFNM scene
I think I've got a thing for nurses
how can I tell if I'm allergic
brother sister
brother sister
anime
I've got urges
how do I forget?
I've got anime
how do I forget
I'm afraid of the government
I'm afraid of people
I'm afraid of most things
Please don't leave, it gets better, I promise.

I've seen you online
A green light blinking
Thought i'd fill you in
on what I've been thinking
I know i'm just a beta
A voice among many
Pouring out my pleasantries
As if she would ever see
You should be happy
And should be safe
I'd protect you from the others
And we could run away
I've never been in love before
But you're what I've been looking for
Face like a Tsundere
Body like Sasha Grey
There'd be some rules
That you should abide by
Game is over gamer girl
I promise i'm a nice guy
I'll draw you bath
And wash your feet in the water
And once i'm sure that every bit of you is wet
Collect it in jars, we'll sell it on the internet.
No, I'm not crazy, If this is how you're gonna be
Don't be like the rest of em
They all fucking hate me
I'll buy you flowers
An expensive Hitachi
The one that wanted
The one that wanted
I'm so fucking nice
If you would just look at me
You're not that pretty
I gave you all my money
At least give me a chance, Beautiful
Look, I understand
I'm a reasonable man
My outburst was churlish
and surely unplanned
It's just that were supposed to be
conjoined in peaceful reverie
But you want to be misused
At least as far as I can see
In case I wasn't forthright
I'll be kind to you, every night
I'd jerk off to your photos
But i'm not like those weirdos
It's probably not my fight
But I've always been a white knight
Blisters on my tendrils
From all my virtue signals.
I'll draw you bath
And wash your feet in the water
And once i'm sure that every bit of you is wet
Collect it in jars, we'll sell it on the internet.

Sub Today, Dom Tomorrow

I try to live, try to live a life without theses sins seducing
But the temptation, it is endless it is all-consuming
Tear it up and tear it up and tear it up
I will ruin this for you
Nobody is dead, nobody is naked
Everything's okay, brush it away
Hide your feelings and watch what you play
Stunting their growth, development or both
Deviants and addicts, their mental gymnastics
It's okay to be strong, it's okay to be weak
Leave them bleeding at your feet
Is it earnest or fan service?
The bloody red line that I dance with
Sometimes I lose my footing and it hurts
When you censor those goddamn Japanese upskirts
It got in my fist then it went bad
So I lopped it off at the fucking wrist
I like to say I love and respect them
Especially when their clothes are missing
My shield is crafted from an ancient oak tree
You're shivering in your chain-mail bikini
Powers came from the blood of the old ones
A lineage that burns like the twin suns
I'm sure you've got the aid some spirits
An amulet of wits between your giant tits
It's okay to be strong, it's okay to be weak
Leave them bleeding at your feet
Is it earnest or fan service?
The bloody red line that I dance with
Sometimes I lose my footing and it hurts
When you censor those goddamn Japanese upskirts
It got in my fist then it went bad
So I lopped it off at the fucking wrist
Sub today, dom tomorrow
Sub today, dom tomorrow
Sub today, dom tomorrow
Sub today, dom tomorrow
Sub today, dom tomorrow

This Has Been Confirmed

You pissed on home and hearth
No memories of worth
Unhealthy. sickly, heart
Broken and wasted parts
Never a perfect fit
Not enough to deal with it
I am comprised of trash
Waste clinging to the past
Never grown and kicked aside
Much smaller on the inside
I found a way to make you disappear
Eradicate this fear
I don't know if this is okay
I'm afraid of what i'll do someday
(x2)
I hear them laughing
They're laughing at me
It's so insidious, whatever they're planning
I have some pictures and clumsy video
This has been confirmed by experts in the know
I found a way to make you disappear
Eradicate this fear
I don't know if this is okay
I'm afraid of what i'll do someday
(x2)
I didn't want to believe
I think this is how it's supposed to be
I understand everything
Everything I read was a goddamn lie
A worthless distraction from this pointless life

I found you on the internet
And now i'm your little pet
You make all my dreams come true
Show you my face, and ya never withdrew
Every filthy, dirty wish
Never fear that would dismiss
Manifest with a bubble-gum kiss
Now, Picture this
I'm in a blanket and it's you and me
And we're watching that lost series finale
I know the nation was kind of split
On whether it was a miss or a hit
But then you turn to me and smile
You say. "I think I really liked it"
It's our dirty little secret, alright
Our kinky night together, underneath the moonlight
I see you dancing for me in knee-high socks
philosophizing with John Locke
Turn out the lights, and now it's getting hotter
It's like a jungle and i'm the smoke monster
This is our night, fall into me
Like your stranded on an island in the middle of the sea
Let's put it on repeat, our love is so fun
I'm feeling like Kate, I was born to run
We have to go back, i'm takin off your socks
You got me breathing heavy like Matthew Fox

It used to be i'd have my hands all over you
But lately, that's the last thing i'd wanna do
You're lookin' like an empty box
With someone else's toys
I pick you up and dump you out
Cuz I know it's just a ploy
We used to have fun
I used to be fulfilled
A dark elf, female, a stealth build
I fucked around in Morrowind, in Cyrodiil
(Put those Deadra in their place)
Join the Dark Brotherhood, you bet I will
(I have seen the Night Mothers face)
But somethings wrong
There's a new kid in town
He looks like an old friend
Just a little watered-down
Todd says he's cool so I show him around
You woke up on a wagon
And now you're fightin' dragons
I used to be an adventurer like you
But the worlds so paper-thin
I tripped and I fell through
You don't look like you anymore
Where's the magic like before?
I'm glad you're doing well
But i'm a little biter since you fell
I see you've got someone new
It's hard to say we're really through
War, war never changes
But sometimes it gets worse
I'm a wasteland survivor
A Highwayman driver
Not a Tato farmer
A bad bitch in power armor
You could try, but you'll never harm her
(You could try, you could try)
Go get in line for the circle-jerk
Cuz i'm tellin' you
It just works
We know what you want
I'm gonna tell you and act like a cunt
And now I hope it falls apart
Cuz you think you're so fucking smart
There's a new kid in town
He looks like an old friend
But really watered-down
Anymore and I think he's gonna drown
Todd's got a plan for us all
But it feels like we hit a wall
I know it's not you, it's me
To a lesser degree
Yes I was in the Chess Club, but who's laughing now
Yes I was in the Chess Club, but who's laughing now
Yes I was in the Chess Club, but who's laughing now

Disco Inferno is the best synthwave-esque track I've ever heard, and that says a lot.

It's hard to pick a favourite track. This is the only album i have so far deemed as "perfect", where every track, even the intro, is just a masterpiece in its own right. From the hard hitting Perturbator's Theme to the emotional title track, its 68 minutes of perfection. 10/10.

The Barcelona duo inject coldwave with industrial grit and ghostly elegance, with Andrea P. Latorre’s vocals an undeniable highlight.
