Waterboarding at Guantánamo Bay Lyrics by Impulse Machine

Waterboarding at Guantánamo Bay!

2021

[Verse 1]
Look at what we have made, is it destiny to live forever?
Look at what has been said among the lepers and the mad
Deconstructing your masterpieces built of oil on iron canvas
Look at mirrors and see, and filter through the noise
Lord have mercy on me, I'm fucking overjoyed
[Verse 2]
Life in shadow and doubt, your signal shining through the darkness
Giving sickness a name; the abyss staring back
In the foundry we pour ourselves and neighbors into casing shells
When we break through the mold, what shape do we sustain?
As the engines unfold, what’s left to erase?
[Chorus]
I'm tired of the lies we live in, of the words we fight
The bodies that drive the engine, all the things we hide
[Verse 3]
They can build a machine adapting with the system pressure
Basic access controls, procedure to a T
All your trespasses will be forgiven, you will not be
Recreating God in an image of a man
I'm coming back from the dead, catch me if you can
[Verse 4]
Can you shatter the earth, its virophage beyond containment
Nervous system decay, scrub down the theatre to operate
Something’s different here, time is out, end the game
[Chorus]
I'm tired of the lies we live in, of the words we fight
The bodies that drive the engine, all the things we hide
I'm tired of the suffocation, isolating light
The chemicals, fire, and fission, and the scars we write
[Bridge]
Well it'll all be gone when the old Gods come back home
It'll pour down acid above, rivers running with the blood of the young
You're gonna hear the black sound make your eyes rot out
You know you're gonna die all alone
[Chorus]
I'm tired of the lies we live in, of the words we fight
The chemicals, fire, and fission, and the scars we write
