Bobby briefly joined Snake River Conspiracy for a while, and Jay formed his own independent record label, D1 Music, with his father. In 2004, Orgy's third album, "Punk Statik Paranoia," was released under D1, but with little to no radio play or recognition from the mainstream music media.
Ryan and Amir have also started a side project known as Julien-K, with a much more electronic focus, and have released a song featuring the vocals of Chester Bennington of Linkin Park on the recent Underworld Evolution soundtrack. They have since formed the project Dead By Sunrise with Bennington. Amir Derakh was immortalised in the Coal Chamber song Amir of the Desert. He produced their debut album. Jay Gordon appeared on the follow up "Chamber Music".
When asked for an Orgy update in late July 2008, Shuck informed fans that Orgy's return is still underway but their priority is getting the much delayed Julien-K album released. During a video interview at the annual Californian NAMM 2009 convention, Derakh mentioned a 2010 Orgy reunion.
On March 30, 2010, through a video to his Julien-K, Dead By Sunrise, and Orgy followers, Shuck informed that there are plans for a tour in 2010. On October 25, 2010, Ryan Shuck and Amir Derakh informed on the Julien-K blog that "As of Oct. 26th we will no longer be part of Orgy. Jay will continue making music without the original members. On October 30, 2010, Jay Gordon released a statement via his official Facebook profile stating that he still owns the Orgy name and wants to continue forth creating new material for the band. Jay wrote that all previous members of the band were too busy with numerous side-projects to continue with the original band.
On November 7, 2011, Blabbermouth.net published a news story detailing the bitter feud between vocalist Gordon and guitarists Shuck and Derakh that has spiraled out of control after Gordon revealing his plans to assemble a band of musicians and begin touring under the name Orgy.
On February 3, 2012, it was announced that Orgy would embark on a five-week run titled the Bad Blood Tour. The new lineup features members of Deadsy, Snot, and Run Run Run. Vocalist Jay Gordon is the only original member of Orgy appearing on this tour; the support acts are the Texas-based One-Eyed Doll Cleveland-based industrial metal band Ventana and Faultline from Richmond, Virginia. The band has reportedly been in the studio in recent weeks recording new material, including a collaboration with Skrillex. This was confirmed after they cancelled the last five shows of their tour.
On August 4, 2012, Orgy linked to a 30 second demo of a new song, "Grime of the Century" via their Twitter and Facebook page.
In 2013, Orgy embarked on the Wide Awake and Dead Tour with Vampires Everywhere! and Davey Suicide.

You're always right (x4)
Fuck
You say you love me
That's what you're saying
I think you're crazy
And the nuts are far behind you
I try to tell myself everything will be alright
I try to wake you up from acting out your stupid dreams
But don't look devastated now
There's more to come from this
Can you hear me?
Am I cutting out?
Now it's time to say goodbye
One of us needs to leave this place
Again you're falling right back down, right back down
So many reasons why one of us needs to leave this place
Again you're falling right back down
Right back down
No I can't change what you say
Tired of the games you play
You're dirty words play tricks on me
And you should feel so ashamed of the way
Feel so ashamed of decisions that you made
There's no control over this
So why do you try
Still find my self-esteem in all your dreams
To get yourself attention
There's got to be a better way to relay your twisted messages
Hate to be the dick to let you know
This is how we let things go
No one needs this shit
Never should have stayed around this long
But I love the pain I feel, like you do
All day long, I want to know why
'Cause it makes no sense to me
No I can't change what you say
Tired of the games you play
You're dirty words play tricks on me
And you should feel so ashamed of the way
Feel so ashamed of decisions that you made
Right
You ask me what is wrong
And I'll tell you why
'Cause I never like the way you treated anyone
Especially your own kind
It's so strange sometimes
I wanna, I wanna know why
Why, why, why
I think there's something that I know
No I can't change what you say
Tired of the games you play
You're dirty words play tricks on me
And you should feel so ashamed of the way
Feel so ashamed of decisions that you made
The stupid things you say
And the fucked up games we play
And you should feel so ashamed of the way
The way, the way

Overall, the song is a powerful critique of toxic relationships and emotional abuse, reflecting the feelings of those who have been in such relationships. It highlights the emotional burden and the need to break free from such relationships.

Further problems or issues will arise from this situation
Can you hear me?
Am I audible to you?
Am I cutting out?
Is my voice intermittently interrupted?
Now it's time to say goodbye
The time has come to say farewell
One of us needs to leave this place
It's imperative that one of us moves out
Again you're falling right back down, right back down
You're descending back to your former state, swiftly and undoubtedly
So many reasons why one of us needs to leave this place
Numerous justifications exist for one of us to depart
No I can't change what you say
I cannot influence or alter what you express
Tired of the games you play
Exhausted from the schemes you perpetrate
You're dirty words play tricks on me
The vulgar expressions you use are deceiving me
And you should feel so ashamed of the way
You must have substantial remorse for your actions
Feel so ashamed of decisions that you made
You ought to be severely embarrassed for the choices you've made
There's no control over this
There's no authority over this situation
So why do you try
Thus, why do you make an attempt?
Still find my self-esteem in all your dreams
I continue to find my self-worth in all your aspirations
To get yourself attention
In order to get the attention you crave
There's got to be a better way to relay your twisted messages
There must be an improved approach to communicate your distorted thoughts
Hate to be the dick to let you know
I regret being the individual to inform you
This is how we let things go
This is how we end our relationship
No one needs this shit
No person requires this nonsense
Never should have stayed around this long
I should have departed earlier
But I love the pain I feel, like you do
However, I relish the agony I endure, akin to you
All day long, I want to know why
Throughout the day, I seek the reasoning
'Cause it makes no sense to me
Because it's incomprehensible to me
You ask me what is wrong
You inquire about my issue
And I'll tell you why
I'll explain the reason
'Cause I never like the way you treated anyone
Because I personally dislike the way you treat people
Especially your own kind
Particularly those similar to you
It's so strange sometimes
It's peculiar at times
I wanna, I wanna know why
I really desire to understand the reason
Why, why, why
Why, why, why
I think there's something that I know
I presume there's something I'm aware of
The stupid things you say
The foolish statements you make
And the fucked up games we play
And the disordered schemes we implement
The way, the way
The manner, the manner

The lyric is "painted face," as in "Your painted face left an impression on my pillow." The singer is telling the "Suicide Girl" that she wears a considerable amount of makeup and some has come off on the bedding.
