lyrics

A mutated example
Of a moment in time
More emotions to sample
In this journey of mine
I never would have imagined
A laboratory like this
A world of dreams and passions
And none of it means shit

This is my first experiment

I add a dash of anger
Emotional aside
Manipulated and stronger
The sadness feels so wide
Who ever could have imagined
Experimental bliss
Hypothesis was so damn wrong
What ever did I miss?

This is my final experiment

I've been waiting for years to tell you
What I call myself at night
When no-one is watching, or looking
Experimenting away, like a maddened Colin Clive
Chip away at the psyche (alrighty!)
Prescribe away the pain
Regulate the serotonin
And start to go insane

When I wake up, the whole world will know
What my name is

When I wake up, the whole world will know
What my name is

When I wake up, the whole world will know
What my title is
When I explode you'll be the first to know
What I call myself at night
When the perimeters have shifted
And you feel full of blame
Don't forget to keep me in mind
And don't forget my name

Emotional. Scientist.

about

Brain Bent Calgary, Alberta

Brain Bent is a tightly-wound machine of jagged post-punk menace, filtered through the banality of corporate jargon and powered by late-stage capitalist dread.
