Emergence - The Tower lyrics

Loveless, soul-less robots made out of skin Manicure, accessorize, cover up the sewage within Twisted, tainted, always at odds Silicone idols to disposable gods You turn every good thing into a sin Build your tower out of stone, live within until it falls Then crouched in darkness all alone Come tumbling down like plastic dolls Hide the signs of suffering, embrace your mediocrity Like mindless zombies shuffling You imitate reality Haunted, sleepless meat-puppet without a will Sanguine, yet your peace of mind comes in a pill Torpid, tranquil, hopeful and vain Undersexed, overfed and living in pain The less you know of yourself the more you can kill Build your tower out of twigs, live within until it falls Then like those silly play-time pigs Come tumbling down like plastic dolls Hide the signs of suffering, embrace your mediocrity Like mindless zombies shuffling you imitate reality Build your tower out of stone, live within until it falls Then crouched in darkness all alone Come tumbling down like plastic dolls Hide the signs of suffering, embrace your mediocrity Like mindless zombies shuffling You imitate reality
