I’m Miss America’s cocaine nose Overdose baby and you finally got your fill Sell me hopes and dreams in a little pill But the same dreams you kill Drugged up, Fucked up, Dead and Dirty! Most of me’s prosthetic and the rest is burning Drugged up, Fucked up, Dead and Dirty! Most of me’s prosthetic and the rest is shit… She loves me, She loves me not She loves me, She loves me not She hates me, Loves me, Breaks me, Fucks me Forgets and moves on Me and Mother Mary Here to rock your world

Rotten 03:58
You are the tainted virgin Your purity's a mask Just another parasite You take but never ask Lead your sheep, those spineless sheep Puppets on your strings Cover your insides in white-out Hide your twisted springs Your core is rotten why don’t you peel off your skin and let the whole world stare within I don’t know where to begin... Your core is rotten why don’t you peel off your skin Comes bleeding out and cracks a grin I don’t know… I don’t know… My perfect sin! Wear your crown of lies They all bow down to you Wrapped around your finger Bound there by fear and glue I gave you my heart A toy for you to break Know the "f" in fuck you is there because you’re fake You live in a dream… …I’ll make your world a nightmare

God Ticket 04:12
Heaven help us Father fuck us Kneel and take your sin Preaching lies Collecting flies On the shit you are within Lies to create fear Mindless sheep to steer Nothing is ever clear! Ignorance or disbelief God killed himself through greed Never practice what you preach! Drop your morals Swear you’re loyal Hide behind your cross Hypocrisy Is all I see Your true meaning was lost

You’ve got a bullet with my name on it Would a suit and tie change the game The Devil on your shoulder is a dollar bill The Angel is a stain You're simply unGodly gullible, strategically tricked Resign to stand in line as a statistic ‘Cause respect and stupidity’s the same fucking word You’re pointing fingers, You haven’t learned! We will raise our kids on fear and nicotine Stereotypes and the all American dream We will raise our kids on fear and nicotine Stereotypes and the all American Dream You live your life as an imitation of someone who can only talk cash Your morals and your standards biased on marketing ploys I bet you gave them a nice laugh You’re simply biodegradable, mechanically fucked Hard up, strung out and star struck ‘Cause Hero & Hypocrite’s the same fucking word Still pointing fingers, Still haven’t learned! I’m all American The All American Raise up you all American Shit! Brought up in a corporate world Where we are taught the price of everything And the value of nothing Where dreams go… to die!

Tell me Another lie to keep me here Sell me On those lies but it’s become so clear Run, run, run Got nowhere to go Run, run Got everything to lose Run, run, run Nowhere to go Run, run The Clock Strikes Tell me Am I guilty just to be? Tell me Is it only jealousy? Run, run, run Got nowhere to go Run, run Got everything to lose Run, run, run Nowhere to go Run, run The Clock Strikes You know it’s about you, I did it without you Can’t control me! Can’t control yourself! And now you wish you were someone else.

Needles drag down me I know it’s wrong yet I can’t explain why Trying not to look I focus on serrated hope A grated escape I’d cry it, if I knew the word Frame your lies and hang them Museum-like, I’m for display And Rosie’s motor writes the soundtrack Hides the whispered “help” amongst the grey And I will never tell you Rosie’s secret Or I shall be buried in the flames No…I never wanted this… No…I never asked for this…

The Bottom 03:58
Well here I am Just stuck with you Stuck at the beginning You had to go and cross the line And it made me feel So dead inside Well it picks me apart And it leaves me for dead It’s all because of you Tried to reach the top, Fell to the Bottom I want to, I tried… Want to turn back, It’s too late now I want to…I tried! Stuck In my head You had to go and cross the line And it made me feel So dead inside Well it picks me apart And it leaves me for dead Well it’s all because of you… Tried to reach the top, fell to the Bottom I tried to reach the top! Want to turn back, It’s too late now Want to turn back, I can’t turn back Tried to turn back but it’s too late now… No, I never wanted this No, I never asked for this And I never wanted it at all

Leave me plugged in with no surprises Incubated with no surprises Gave it all to a world that’s breath-taking Three feet to my left mistakes in the making It could all change with the pull of a trigger Kiss or an ego trip Leave me plugged in and humiliate me I’m six feet over mistakes in the making I’d second guess the other me Cause he'd love to kill the time Leave things as they were I’ll poison all I hate in me Don't think he’d mind Leave things as they were Wake up! Another day Fresh holes still bleed the same As I walk through a world not worth saving Fueling the fire, constantly hating Burn it all down so I feel bigger Live in ignorance Swallow the dose Alleviate me Six Feet Over everything breaking And It keeps on coming back…

Inside You 04:13
Chained up, leashed, hidden from my eyes Incubated by sex, pills, and lies Cut the strings from me muffle out my cries As I fall from grace I am consumed by flies Write me off as someone you can use Write me off as someone you can abuse If it’s too much than give me something to choose If I meant nothing than I’ve got nothing to lose! Where did it go where could it be? My love for you, my love for me How was I too blind to see? All the little things you were doing to me …and him, and him, and him. I felt good inside you I hope this knife does too…

I cannot believe that this has come true To think that there was a time this was the only thing I knew Staring into discolored eyes I see insecurities and a life… A life of living lies! I build it up so it falls harder when it comes tumbling down I feed the fire ‘till there’s nothing left to burn but the ground It’s true what they say “What goes around does come around” …yes it does You can try to pretend But in the end Your true colors will shine though And you’re all… You’re Black and Blue I just live for the pain The thought of death only keeps me sane It might seem a little odd When my life is in my hands I feel… I feel as big as God!

about

Generation Empty Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Formed in 2008 in Philadelphia, PA, Generation Empty stands a singular force, demanding a revolution in a jaded world that has been intellectually deteriorated by chemical lobotomies and social apathy. Originally prescribed as an industrial rock hybrid, Generation Empty experiments with shots of sleazy blues riffs, hits of brutal metal beats, and overdoses of assorted electronic influences. ... more
