.execute. Lyrics - All Hope Is Gone - Slipknot

It appears that we have reached the edge 

That zenith where stimuli and comatose collide 

Forty years ago the man proclaimed 

The age of the gross to be upon us 

And even though the man was destroying our heritage 

And insulting our intelligence 

That era has become very real 

We labor for pleasure and abhor the guilt of pressure 

My generation will go down as the architects 

Of contemporary disgust 

Some have fought and died 

Others have allowed the strong to be butchered for a price 

They themselves don't care about and will never understand 

I myself am beleaguered by the selfish face 

Of a kind of man that is not mankind 

Distrust in information 

Fundamentalism of opinion

Love Stinks, So Here Are 15 Anti-Valentine's Day Songs 

Catastrophic boredom and a fanatical devotion 

To that which does not matter 

Where is your glory now, people? 

Where are your Gods and politicians? 

Where is your shame and salvation? 

You rage for no reason because you have no reason 

What have you ever fought for? 

What have you ever bled for? 

The face of the earth is scarred with the walking dead 

The age of the gross is a living virus 

This is the future you have created 

This is the world you have set ablaze 

All your lies are coming true 

All freedom is lost, all hope is gone
