lyrics

PREACHING TO THE DEAF

HEAR YE!
The unheard, the unspoken.
The hidden meanings, the unwritten word.
Misinterpretations, twisted truths.
Silenced cries, false dogma.
The Grand Opiate.

Unopposed, with eyes wide open.
Docile, dosed, dazed.
Swallow and choke, swallow and choke.
The Grand Opiate.

Blind to reason.
Inconvenient fact.
Pacified in chains.
Shackled without protest.
The Grand Opiate.

A distant nagging sensation.
Heard as from afar.
Fails to register.
Falls on Deaf Ears.
The Grand Opiate.

Smart phones.
Dumb humans.
Activate device.
Deactivate all thought.
They got you where they want you.
And you didn't even notice.
Without regret you embrace.
The Grand Opiate.

The Grand Opiate plays grindcore, plain and simple.
Grindcore that makes you think and grind your teeth. ... more
