Humanity never rest- Sleepwalker

Consumed!
Do I feel the rage?
Growing inside me, a fear I cannot contain
At war with an enemy, who does not rest and will never relent
The sea, these earthless catacombs
Our tombs they have become
Buried alive and burned,
Never to return. (To return)
Straight to the masses,
Trapped and trained by viscous minds,
I let them tear, tear away everything inside

Slip away my humanity, phantom my identity, sacrifice my integrity

Just put us through the teeth of a combine
Just put us through the teeth of a combine

At war with an enemy,
Who does not rest and will never relent
At war with an enemy,
Who does not rest or never
Sleep walk our lives away,
In search of shallow graves.
Sleep walk our lives away.
Lost souls!

Burns!

Just put us through the teeth of a combine
Just put us through the teeth of a combine
Just put us through the teeth
Ohh!

Consumed I feel the rage,
Growing inside me,
I will not contain,
And I've got to question every truth I know
Not one more scab

In the name of progress,
In the name of blind ambition

Not one more scar

In the name of progress,
In the name of blind ambition

How the fuck am I supposed to feel,
When everything I know,
Lies broken at my feet.

INTERPRETATION: The meaning behind these lyrics is basically being caught up in the natural system of how society functions. You basically just go along with the flow of the world without going out for what you truly want or love. And eventually you'll realize that you've done the wrong thing and won't know what to do, or you'll possibly break away from the path and just do what you want to do. How our current society blinds us of our individual identity. Our way of daily life functions according to past traditions. Basically, we're all mindless drones doing what society tells us to do, without really considering why we do it. Hence, we sleepwalk our lives away.
