about

this track concerns itself w/ the fear and mystery surrounding uegenics, stem-cell research, cloning, and...gasp..retail shopping!!

lyrics

they claw their way in throught the eyes
hi-jack the pixels, prime-time you're hypnotized
they pull your thoughts right from the sky
flesh give so easy, all hail the new technology
they carve a path to what's (divine/find) your way home
they miss the reason that binds them to the lie, they hide
behind their lidless frightened eyes
no calculations ease the mind
my mask is slipping, gets hard to hide that we're alive
leave nothing but footprints
take nothing but pictures
kill nothing but time
our dreams are still our greatest prize
last sanctuary, first place the seek to digitize
the stuff your head, rise zombie rise
"give me convenience, too tired to fight", your battle-cry
and now you stare out of the (aisle/I'll) show you home
Boxed & Bar-Coded, stock on the shelf-lobotimized
we focus on the pain to thrive, can let them see the me inside
my mask is slipping, gets hard to hide that we're alive
leave nothing but footprints
take nothing but pictures
kill nothing but time
each memory squirms, each memory stings,
each memory till the last kills... kills
blue light, not right
now that you pay all day, and you will know the way
gaining deceit your way
pattern's contained today, and you will know the way
dreaming your dreams at bay

i know what you know, they can't find the way, but you find the time, everytime know what you know, that they won't be the same and they know then they play and you're Boxed, Bar-Coded
i can feel the way they came down on me, but you know that they won't hide everything inside, and I know what you know, and all the way down 'cause your Boxed, Bar-Coded

Boxed, Bar-Coded on your shelf
Boxed, Bar-Coded no one else!

about

Orphans of Aliens image

Orphans of Aliens Oakland, California

Hails from Oakland, CA. Combining elements of science fiction, ancient mysteries, conspiracy theories and archaeology. Some say it's progressive, jazzy, metal, funk. It's hard to pin point. They just like to play it live then get it on record.
