dopamine_machine Songtext
von Ferry

Evening comes and you pull out your hidden razor
You′re engulfed and lose your vision in the haze of
Dopamine, you look at me and see a face of
Somebody, another somebody
You look afraid

Have your barricades really decayed?
You're running lemonade at thirty-six degrees centigrade
Inside your lemon veins
And your heart′s a lemon grenade
You think I'm playing charades, masquerade
But this machine just needs an upgrade

In your dreams you see yourself forever weaving
Holy webs, you wake up looking at the ceiling
Dopamine is coursing through your head and leaving
Emptiness, it's leaving emptiness
You feel betrayed


Oh I hate to rain on your parade
But as you know disasters often come in great cavalcades
Your mind begins to fade
Thought that you were made in the shade?
Neither a serenade, nor a tirade -
A melody of your cascade

Have your barricades really decayed?
You′re running lemonade at thirty-six degrees centigrade
Inside your lemon veins
And your heart′s a lemon grenade
You think I'm playing charades, masquerade
But this machine just needs an upgrade

Oh this isn′t the end
Hold my hand
There is no need to play these games
and pretend all is lost
Take it from me - this voice in your head -
Nurture that monster under your bed
And feel the taste of lead
Again, my friend
