Disconnected
Engines of Aggression Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Got a big misunderstanding of what the world is gonna be
Got a steady situation, worsens all the time
There's a big load of silence at the end of the line
Disconnected
Disconnected
Someone's watchin' me
Down deep inside
I know they'll never ever see
Wanted everything right for me
Another perfect ten
Those motherfuckers
They got us again
Well I've been rejected
Mothafuckin' tested
It goes on and on and on

Hey Liquidmice9 thanks for your kind words. We were on par to make it big. Unfortunately the record label dropped the ball and let us slip through the cracks right when we were ready to break. Chalk it up to bad decisions by the people who held the purse strings. We had a great ride though, got to play shows with Korn, System of a Down, Danzig, Rollins and Curve (to name a few). I'm with you though... I thought we would make it big too.

Yeah, Priority Records really dropped the ball on you guys. I had you guys play a club I DJed at in Charlotte NC. Great show!
