I wake in sweat   you've come to steal my life away   some strange electric glow   of artifical day   the power breakers closed   the grid of darkness falls   shining gleaming black as night   burning all the light      what ya' want from me   i sense your mastery   there's something you won't ever find   so have your way with me   this prisoner is never free   rip me up leave me behind      are you the truth to sit in judgement on my sins   evil (laser?) gadgets come to penetrate my skin   the hanging judge is (open?)   and I'm damned before his eyes   another (gender?) system failed   and many more have tried      chorus      solo      "masterplan moment"      and so the story goes   i dreamt this long ago   highways hidden in the sand   reveal the troops i know   they took my worthless heart   and spat it through their eyes   Abduction means the end for me   a million years of misery      chorus   so have your way with me   this soldier's lost victory   rip me up...
