Everything is happening
Everything is great
Your dissonance is coming soon
Can you decide your fate
Everything is festering
Everything is wrong
Psyche feels like rotting meat
You hear the siren song
Tell me about your disease (x2)
Compromise so we appease
Put our suffering minds at ease
Tell me about your disease (x2)
Compromise so we appease
Put our suffering minds at ease
I am failure / I am failure / I am failure / I am failure
Fear that you’re unlovable
Fear that you’ll miss out
Missing whole years of your life
They’re lost without a doubt
Fear that everything is wrong
Fear that you’re a loss
Never given any chances
Nailed on your own cross
Tell me about your disease (x2)
Compromise so we appease
Put our suffering minds at ease
I am failure / I am failure / I am failure / I am failure

Satanic Panic

What the hell happened to sarcasm?
I'm pleading the fifth for your orgasm.
Gonna’ swallow ‘em up, open that chasm, and burn it all down
BURN IT ALL DOWN (x4)
In the 80s they told us to just say no
Just marionettes in a puppet show
As they snorted the future right up their nose, and sold us all out
SOLD US ALL OUT (x4)
Can’t wake up in the city of chrome!
The Satanic Panic is-a comin’ home!
Roasted liars turnin’ on the spit
Say it’s the pendulum when it’s the pit
Whatever they told you, this ain’t it, they sold us a lie
SOLD US A LIE (x4)
The American dream died on the vine
There ain’t nothin’ wrong with bein’ kind
But church and school would break our minds, and make us comply
MAKE US COMPLY (x4)
Can’t wake up in the city of chrome!
The Satanic Panic is-a comin’ home!
It’s capitalism’s latest stage
So instead of a home we have a cage
Depressed and in debt is all the rage, you might as well pack
MIGHT AS WELL PACK (x4)
They were mad about knives and D N D
Heavy metal, cartoons and MTV
Couldn’t let their kids escape, go free and take it all back
TAKE IT ALL BACK (x3)
TAKE THAT POWER BACK NOW NOW NOW
Can’t wake up in the city of chrome!
The Satanic Panic is-a comin’ home!

In Silence

I rot away inside this
prison of sex and violence
I blind myself with silence
I only see your weakness
In silence
We speak our truth
A winding labyrinth
Of misspent youth
Empathy is our failing
Sheer exhaustion assailing
We are not built for scaling
Society derailing
In silence
We share our dreams
We reach out toward the sun
And drown in our extremes
They drown out all our sorrows
Rob us of our tomorrows
Voices of poison arrows
In silence we foreshadow
In Silence… (x2)

Guilt Free Snogging
04:30

It’s so easy to be // the best friend
Just a little white lie and some playing pretend
You’re a shoulder // to cry on
a one night-stand to die on
You spell friend P-U-S-S-Y
By all accounts you’re a hell of a guy
All the humanity // of a burnt effigy
Four out of Five jilted lovers agree
Guilt Free Snogging ... is the order of the day
Guilt Free Snogging ... it’s okay
Guilt Free Snogging ... it’s all right
Guilt Free Snogging ... you’ll be snoggin’ all nite
What they don’t know // can’t hurt
No jury would convict you for chasin’ a skirt
All about // gettin’ your rocks off
Breakin’ those chastity belt locks off
You say what you need to say
Don’t let the truth get in the way
Then you vanish // like a ghost
And carve another notch in your bed post
Guilt Free Snogging ... is the order of the day
Guilt Free Snogging ... it’s okay
Guilt Free Snogging ... it’s all right
Guilt Free Snogging ... you’ll be snoggin’ all nite
You’ve confused getting dumber for being smart
You say pick-up artist but there is no art
The magic // bullet eluded
A like minded tribe of deluded
Respect is a two way street
What you’re all about has been made obsolete
If these words // cut you
It’s ‘cause no other human will touch you
Guilt Free Snogging ... is the order of the day
Guilt Free Snogging ... it’s okay
Guilt Free Snogging ... it’s all right
Guilt Free Snogging ... you’ll be snoggin’ all nite

Nightmares Are Real
04:34

Old... men in top... coats and top
hats and tails destroy the
youth... nail and tooth... tooth and nail
to defend their frailty
nightmares are real... (x4)
Dark... dancing in... eyes that fail
shadows writhing in your
sleep... counting sheep... will not keep
reapers from your pillow
nightmares are real... (x4)
WAKE ME FROM THIS NIGHT’S ILLUSION
FREE ME FROM THIS INSTITUTION
HOLD IN ME IN YOUR ARMS
UNTIL I WAKE UP… (CHORUS x2)
nightmares are real... (x4)
Trapped… under lies… in your fear…
When you wake up they’re not
here… they appear… in your brain
shattered dream distraction…
Eyes… terrified… paralyzed…
With your loved ones who betray…
Leave behind… in your mind…
Trust your gut reaction

Nothing short of a brilliant rethinking of an already exceptional album. From start to finish, my first listen of the album tracks (1-26 of the total 37) had the hair standing up on my neck and my arms tingling with goose bumps. Playing this compilation was like hearing “The Wall” for the first time again with fresh ears. Dogtablet’s version of “Mother” is absolutely bone-chilling, but every track is a gem paying proper tribute to the source while bringing it into the 21st Century.
