Description

"MK ULTRA" has an electronic sound and powerful, "spidery" riffs.[2][3]

Information

The title is derived from Project MK-ULTRA, the code name for a CIA project that sought to use drugs for the purposes of mind control and interrogation. An image of some declassified MK-ULTRA documents appears in the booklet of Black Holes and Revelations.

Lyrics

The wavelength gently grows
Coercive notions will evolve
Our universe is trapped inside a tear
It resonates the craw
Creates unnatural laws
Replaces love and happiness with fear

Oooooooh
Aaah aaah aaah aaah

How much deception can you take?
How many lies will you create?
How much longer 'til you break?
Your mind's about to fold

And they're breaking through
And they are breaking through
And they are breaking through
And we are losing control

And they're breaking through
And they are breaking through
And they are breaking through
Now we are falling, we are losing control

Invisible to all
the mind becomes a wall
of history deleted with one stroke

How much deception can you take?
How many lies will you create?
How much longer 'til you break?
Your mind's about to fold

And they're breaking through
They are breaking through
They are breaking through
Now we are falling, we are losing control
