Killing Time Inc.
Fractured Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Condescended, reinvented, all our lies apprehended.
Annihilated, advocated, so we won't feel obligated.
Manipulated, asphixiated, killing time incorporated.
what you see is never reality, on you TV from what just should not be.
Blood on our hands from all their foring lands.
Iron fists, soon we'll cease to exist.
Humiliated, initiated, all our men motivated.
Hallucinated, uneducated, give their lives up to be hated.
Reinstated, god-like fated, all our world hand operated.
What you see is never reality, on your TV from what just should not be.
Blood on our hands from all their forign lands.
Iron fists, soon we'll cease to exist.
The lyrics of "Killing Time Inc." by Fractured are a commentary on the world and its corrupt and violent nature. The verses describe a bleak and dystopian world where lives are destroyed, lies are told, and truths are suppressed. The chorus repeats the idea that what we see on TV is not reality, and the blood on our hands comes from the foreign lands we have ravaged. The song suggests that we are all complicit in the violence and destruction, and that our world is operated by those who hold the power.
The lyrics use strong language and vivid imagery to convey the message. The words "devastated," "recreated," and "desecrated" paint a picture of a world destroyed and remade by those in power. The lines "blood on our hands from all their foreign lands" evoke the idea of imperialism and colonialism and the destruction caused by invading foreign lands. The repetition of "iron fists, soon we'll cease to exist" suggests that the people in power will eventually destroy themselves with their own violent actions.
Overall, "Killing Time Inc." is a powerful critique of the world's flawed systems and the role we all play in perpetuating them. It suggests that we need to wake up and see through the lies and propaganda that surround us, and that we need to work towards creating a more just and peaceful world.

Hard track! Electro-industrial power of this ...

sound a bit like a synthwave genre, this is so fucking good XD

It's called Dark Electro, the new form of the genre, but it can also be categorized such as synthwave - but the guitar-part is the best part of the underlying electronic sounds ;)
