Isolation is like serving time Except in this case I've done no crime I choose to be alone to search my soul To see if there is good in this heart with a hole I had no control when I lived out there My life became a nightmare There is no love in isolation All you have is your imagination I live in a world created on my own Contempt for the outside keeps me alone Isolation is for me The only way to be free Isolation - is liberation When desperation is what you feel Isolation - is liberation When desperation is what you feel Isolate - myself Free - myself Isolate - myself Be - myself
forget what shame is (what) fear remorse and pain is We are relentless Anything for progress An operation soulless We're heartless and godless (we're) synchronized and seamless In worship of success
WHY DO WE ACT LIKE MACHINES?

Another day in the city of pain Sharing the life of the mad and insane I'm closing my eyes in awe of the scenes I cover my ears in fear of their screams
And I'm waiting
The days does not end and so does the night That covers the streets in darkness and fright I'm staying awake while the city sleeps Watching the low life, the pimps and the creeps
And I'm waiting Waiting in vain And I'm waiting For the cleansing rain
And I'm praying Praying in vain And I'm praying For the cleansing rain
And when I look up I can't see the sky Stormbringing clouds are piling up high Pouring red rain Forming pools of blood Bringing redemption of the last flood
Isolation is like serving time Except in this case I've done no crime I choose to be alone to search my soul To see if there is good in this heart with a hole I had no control when I lived out there My life became a nightmare There is no love in isolation All you have is your imagination I live in a world created on my own Contempt for the outside keeps me alone Isolation is for me The only way to be free Isolation - is liberation When desperation is what you feel Isolation - is liberation When desperation is what you feel Isolate - myself Free - myself Isolate - myself Be - myself
My brain is haunted by this scent It takes me back to a past event It's like a drug that I need every day I need to preserve it, have to get it my way
Forever I'll have this desire This scent - keeps me alive and fills my soul Forever engulfed by its fire This scent - consumes my mind and takes control
The feelings I get when memory comes back Gives me something in my life I lack It takes me awat to the place I seek And my being reaches its highest peak
I follow the trail it leaves behind Boxing it up is on my mind Preserving this scent is my aim I satisfy my senses, that scent must sustain
Isolation is like serving time Except in this case I've done no crime I choose to be alone to search my soul To see if there is good in this heart with a hole I had no control when I lived out there My life became a nightmare There is no love in isolation All you have is your imagination I live in a world created on my own Contempt for the outside keeps me alone Isolation is for me The only way to be free Isolation - is liberation When desperation is what you feel Isolation - is liberation When desperation is what you feel Isolate - myself Free - myself Isolate - myself Be - myself
