Scarlet Sky 04:50
“We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried. Most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad Gita; Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and, to impress him, takes on his multi-armed form and says, ‘Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.’ I suppose we all thought that, one way or another.”

The fox chased the rabbit down the hole A wild desperation takes its toll But neither one is evil, it’s just nature’s way It doesn’t make the rabbit any less afraid Feeling an ocean in a stranger’s tears I sense emotion and all your unknown fears They’re down the hallway in your abandoned mind Lurking in darkness, sharp fangs for you to find My heart was pounding as I ran into the night Pursued by voices that I couldn’t see or fight My mouth is gone, though I scream into the icy air But life goes on and no one seems to care Feeling an ocean in a stranger’s tears I sense emotion and all your unknown fears They’re down the hallway in your abandoned mind Lurking in darkness, sharp fangs for you to find Feeling an ocean in a stranger’s tears I sense emotion and all your unknown fears They’re down the hallway in your abandoned mind Lurking in darkness, sharp fangs for you to find

Bad Faith 03:17
To preserve an ego lacking inner peace You live emulating who you think best I see your fingers crossed behind your back Run to the sun without a rest Can’t stop marching For the bad faith Can’t stop marching For the bad faith I’m kept awake by the noise of regress I rode the zeitgeist waterfall Filled with a concept, there’s no more me What are you trying to prove to a brick wall? Can’t stop marching For the bad faith Can’t stop marching For the bad faith I think that I’ve lost my mind I don’t know who I am inside I think that I’ve lost my mind I don’t know who I am inside I think that I’ve lost my mind I don’t know who I am inside I think that I’ve lost my mind I don’t know who I am inside

Shove the plugs into my empty eye sockets And flood my brain with new sensations Who needs truth or human connection When you have desensitization? Reptile brain, reptile brain, reptile brain Reptile brain, reptile brain, reptile brain I need to repress my feelings of weakness Distracted by images, dancers on a stage Commodity fetish, never stop buying I’m addicted and trapped in a cage Reptile brain, reptile brain, reptile brain Reptile brain, reptile brain, reptile brain Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Lord of my skull-sized kingdom With no one else, I’m a lonely god in here Happiness is just one purchase away All of my troubles will disappear Reptile brain, reptile brain, reptile brain Reptile brain, reptile brain, reptile brain

I don’t exist behind the mask I only obey, whatever my task Conditioned pet, Pavlov’s prize Forget myself when I arise Every day fight or flight Mental prison every night Burning and throwing rocks Screaming in a glass box I don’t exist behind the mask I only obey, whatever my task Conditioned pet, Pavlov’s prize Forget myself when I arise Every day fight or flight Mental prison every night Burning and throwing rocks Screaming in a glass box “There is no loyalty except loyalty to the Party. There is no love except love of Big Brother. All competing pleasures we will destroy. If you want a vision of the future, Winston, imagine a boot stamping on a human face – forever.” Sit down, stand up Mask of the dog Sit down, stand up Mask of the dog Sit down, stand up Mask of the dog Sit down, stand up Mask of the dog

about

Dog Mask Ontario

A person in a dog mask who makes dark music for dark times. Dog Mask fuses the intensity of goth, post-punk, and industrial music with the forward-thinking sensibilities of electronic music, art rock, internet media, and the avant-garde. It is the firm belief of this musician that you must thoroughly understand your shadows to discover by deduction what remains—the light. ... more
