Behold a new Christ
Behold the same old horde
Gather at the (altar)ing [ALTERING]
New beginning, new word
And the word was death
And the word was without light
The new beatitude:
"Good luck, you're on your own"
Blessed are the fornicates
May we bend down to be their whores
Blessed are the rich May we labour, deliver them more
Blessed are the envious Bless the slothful, the wrathful, the vain
Blessed are the gluttonous
May they feast us to famine and war
What of the pious, the pure of heart, the peaceful?
What of the meek, the mourning, and the merciful?
All doomed
All doomed
Behold a new Christ
Behold the same old horde
Gather at the (altar)ing [ALTERING]
New beginning, new word
And the word was death
And the word was without light
The new beatitude:
"Good luck..."
What of the pious, the pure of heart, the peaceful?
What of the meek, the mourning, and the merciful?
What of the righteous?
What of the charitable?
What of the truthful, the dutiful, the decent?
Doomed are the poor
Doomed are the peaceful
Doomed are the meek
Doomed are the merciful
For the word is now death
And the word is now without light
The new beatitude:
"# the doomed, you're on your own"
[Intro]
Dopamine
On dopamine
[Verse 1]
We have been overrun by our animal desire
Addicts of the immediate keep us obedient and unaware
Feeding this mutation, this Pavlovian despair
[Pre-Chorus]
We've become
Disillusioned
So we run
Towards anything glimmering
[Chorus]
Time to put the silicon obsession down
Take a look around, find a way in the silence
Lie supine away with your back to the ground
Dis- and re-connect to the resonance now
You were never an island
Unique voice among the many in this choir
Tuning into each other, lift all higher
[Interlude]
Dopamine
On dopamine
[Verse 2]
Willingly been re-wired by clever agents within
Looping our reflections, our obsessions draw us in
Fix and fixation, no sentience beyond
[Pre-Chorus]
We've become disillusioned
So we dive like crows towards anything glittering
[Chorus]
Time to put the silicon obsession down
Take a look around, find a way in the silence
Lie supine away with your back to the ground
Dis- and re-connect to the resonance now
You were never an island
Unique voice among the many in this choir
Tuning into each other, lift all higher

I cant get enough. Will have to use these for a video on the human condition. Full album cant come soon enough! Maynard is just like his wine, getting
better with the years!

Where the hell is the new Tool album?
I'm starting to feel like they are just trolling.
When and if it ever comes out it better kick some serious ass.
I've given up hope that it will ever manifest.
Perfect Circle and Puscifer have some good stuff, but it is still Tool-Lite.

Sorry, but this sounds like Diet-Tool.
I'm pretty sure they're just trolling their fans with promise of a new album.
I'll believe it if I hear it.
Otherwise...what a dick move.
"What a dick move?" - More like, what a moronic comment. One would think you didnt know APC has been around for almost 20 years. Sorry but you're a
real tool and not a real fan. Go post your stupid negativity in another thread, dick.
