SMP Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hate me you know what? Could not care less
Leave me behind all this life's a race
Chasing the phantoms zeros and ones
Hiding when it all comes crashing down
Running into space to find shelter
You know you know what? We don't want your kind
Dying with the taste of affluence
Laughing to yourself it's all been for naught

The fade out
The phase out

Scavenge for your life for fuel to burn
Matrix is a place you cannot touch
Pulses through the night they shut you down
Lying is a way to fool yourself
System of anarchs a lawless state
Strongest will survive the labor slaves
Violence was your way now take your turn
Vermin's what you are so run and hide

When you walk down this path
Be careful to keep your mind
Stay off these tank treads
You know where they lead
But forget about it, the future is here now
The clock has struck and better days are ahead
As bogies strike this sector in the formation of an
iron cross
Overshadowing everything you've built, let me tell you
this
A small bit of comfort, nothing lasts forever
Your time is done and thanks for nothing
A new infrastructure is now in place
Now please
If you will




Fade
Away

Seeking refuge in the vast emptiness of space


You know you know what? We don't want your kind
We don't want people like you around us


Dying with the taste of affluence
People dying with too much wealth


Laughing to yourself it's all been for naught
Realizing that all our efforts have been for nothing

Take comfort in the fact that nothing stays the same forever

Please

Completely


The fade out
The disappearance of everything
