Synthetic Delusion Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stare in the eyes of your enemy

Spit at the face you've come to hate

Let go of all your fear

Listen to yourself for once
Focus on the dreams you have

Overcome and dominate

Open up your eyes

And see the only life you live

I hear the fear in your breath

Your so scared to take control

Just so attached to something else

You cant let go

Now its time

To throw it all away

Now its time

To put heart in yourself

Now its time

To push it all away

Now its time

To leave it all behind

Your still killing yourself its time, its time

(you still kill yourself)

Take a look at who you are

And where you want to be

Don't suffocate yourself

And live in your own misery

Now its time

To throw it all away

Now its time

To put heart in yourself

Now its time

To push it all away

Now its time

To leave it all behind

Your still killing yourself its time, its time

Your still killing yourself its time, its time

Your still killing yourself its time, its time





Your still killing yourself its time, its time

Ive been looking for this band for the past 20 years. Waste of skin has lived in my mind for so long! Holy fuck i found it and it still kicks so much ass!!!

@Nuggiescrispy

These guys were up and coming in my high school. Saw them at garage shows and keggers

@locutus2962

I use to tech for these guys. Good friends, and i had a blast touring with them. They had an AR from Roadrunner records come to a show of theirs in Hollywood. I couldn't believe they got turned down. They were incredibly talented. And they introduced me to the band I ended up playing with for years.

@elbowsoutracing6059

Funny, we had an AR rep w roadrunner. We knew the guitarist from this band , he filled in with Motograter at the whiskey. Motograter singer, is now w five finger. Small world 🤘
