HDK - System Overload

Epileptic seizure attack building up and coming back
The massacre beginning as I cross the threshold
Overload on information, bust in with no invitation
Tackling the mountain with a dirty blindfold


I’m in over my head
I can’t relate
Again, I’m bound and gagged
I can’t escape


Meltdown: the system’s overloading
The fuse is burning


Asphyxiating on what’s being crammed down my throat
And it’s eating every fiber in me and the fists keep pounding
Throw me to the sharks, I’ll take it
Overboard, obliterated
Sinking to the bottom with the sirens sounding


Consumed and overused
Burned at the stake
Ground down to the bone
Wired awake


Meltdown: the system’s overloading
The fuse is burning


Buried and afflicted by the accumulation
Pressing on my shoulders
Piling on me
Headed towards extinction
In a world where every carnivore and whore
Will gouge my eyes out


Every day the daily drone is grating on the happy home
Ripping open further all the gaps between us
Suffocating power struggles
Never-ending, never subtle
Going for the jugular to cash in


I’m in over my head
I can’t relate
Again, I’m bound and gagged
I can’t escape.


Meltdown: the system’s overloading
The fuse is burning
