Where had all those old friends gone
Left us there with nothing on
Voice’s screaming in our sleep
Shot us in the foot again
Always in two minds
With vices all the time
Fuck all that good advice
Hid the way we felt inside
Spin - Spinning upside down
Spin - Through the sky - don’t look down
Self-aware satire
Didn’t give a shit
Day after day
Spinning upside down
Didn’t wait till the clouds were gone
Stayed inside with the curtains drawn
All those dreams of the other side
Cause the world had passed us bye
Bad thoughts filled our minds
No ideas to get behind
Lightning don’t strike twice
Time for us to say goodbye
Spin - Spinning upside down
Spin - Through the sky - don’t look down
So high we couldn’t come down
Can’t come down

Stop the boats and start your jet ski
Cause dogs people are wealthy
Smell of leather and spilt coffee
In the new SUV
Get fat and watch TV - Get fat and watch TV
But we got no idea
We got no idea - We got no idea
Skinned alive by capitalism
Buying things we can’t afford
Skinned alive by capitalism
Neo liberal treadmill whore
So shiny we need it - so shiny and new
It’s so shiny we need it - so shiny and new
We fill that hole with more shit - Weekend trip to the store
We fill that hole with more shit - Weekend trip to the store
Why does everything keep on breaking?
Why does this stuff never last?
Why is your wife turning plastic?
While your bleeding from your ass
Skinned alive by capitalism
Buying things we can’t afford
Skinned alive by capitalism
Neo liberal treadmill whore
Keep complaining that the worlds not safe now x 2
Buying things we can’t afford x 2
Buy those things we can’t afford

Hit and Run

Burnt and overdone
Everything melted in the sun
Children taught to lie
Told to bite their tongue
We can’t waste away
Wondering where it went wrong?
We’ll be left for dead
Victims of a hit and run
Beat that same old drum
Hit us till we’re numb
Stab us with those lies
Words like the bullets from a gun
We can’t waste away
Wondering where it went wrong?
We’ll be left for dead
Victims of a hit and run
Gonna leave this all behind
This ain’t no way to live our lives

Fall Like Rain

What happened? I guess we had to try
Whole world turned in the blink of an eye
Forsaken, beneath that heedless sky
Left there to die
How did it happen again?
Two voices inside my head
Arguing till dawn
Yeah
We were the wrecks – a shattered pair
Kept holding on
But the other voice inside my head
Knew her light was gone
We all fall like rain
We just wrecks trapped in there
But we kept holding on
The other voice inside my brain
Knew her light was gone

Mephisto Is Me
02:07

Ran it up a flagpole - on a gutless witch-hunt
You lost your shit - boom like dynamite
You thought I was an asshole - you even called me a cunt
Kept saying I was shit - and I would prove you right
It kept me up all night
Cause you weren’t right
And I wanted a fight
Mephisto - mephisto is me
Mephisto - mephisto is me
Think I am evil? - just you wait and see
Mephisto - mephisto is me
You had something to say - but couldn’t look me in the eye
Not a word to my face – I did everything right
Kept on building that case - kept on building that file
Nothing out of place - but you put me on trial
It kept me up all night
Cause you weren’t right
And I wanted a fight
Mephisto - mephisto is me
You think I am evil - just you wait and see
Mephisto - mephisto is me
Fire that worthless piece of shit
Lickety split

Are you drunk, drunk again?
Like a wrecking ball, swaying in the wind
Are you drunk, drunk again?
You’re the reason we can’t have nice things
We’re all alone
Nobodies home
Slowly wasting away
Slowly working our way straight down
You’re stuck, stuck in a rut
Friday comes, go to the pub
You’re stuck, stuck in a rut
You’re the reason we can’t have nice things
Go grab more schooners
Get a whole tray
Go grab more schooners
Let’s drink all day
It only took one look the wrong way
It only took one look for you to snap
Now we’re fucked
You’re the reason we can’t have nice things

Beast Machine Sydney, Australia
Beast Machine’s sound has been likened to a fight between Kyuss, High on Fire and Slayer. Their live show has been described as sounding heavier than a collapsed star, like a tank full of T-Rex’s. They’ve just finished recording their first album in the US with legendary producer Luke Gerard Webb. A must listen for fans of Thrash, Metal, Rock, Punk and Doom. ... more
