Lyrics:

Love cannot attach itself to binding ugliness 
Rise inside best to advise life the point at hand 
Indifference as a race are we of each others needs 
Dress it up with false kindness
Create empathy 

Hungry lie beside name your game 
Feelings
Feeling sorry that I ever came 
Sugar and water
Dissolve to taste
Sweet nothing  

Illogical of own accord by choice of politics 
Harmonize to verify the life experience 
Practitioner of medicine
Prolong until the end 
Bringing hope
Discuss the point
Extend eternity 

Execute economic slave 
Feel it
Unearthly remains 
Freedom as an offering 
Ask again 

Flesh and bone attach itself to ancient monuments 
Unsurpassed except for rust
Unheard violence 
Departure from the fragrant ledge
A fall
Madness grin
Rip it up proclaims the right
Value ecstasy 

Boils bitten
Haggard pick
Vomit kicking out 
Razor slide
Black eyed shroud
Brain-bespattered jaw 
Retaliate so grudgingly
Precise as what it seems 
Futile claim
Hypothesis
Enter carnal grin

Video:
An official video exists and appears on the 1984-1992 Video Collection. 

Samples:

"D...Do ya hear that? The music. A band. Do you hear it? There's somebody here!" @ 4:50 (CD version)

From The Twilight Zone (Original TV Series), from the episode "Elegy", which is also sampled in 200 Years. 

At 4:59 (CD version), a sample occurs of what sounds like the Alleluia of a Catholic Mass in Medieval plainchant style. 

Notes:

• The original LP mix of the track was replaced with the 12" version on the CD release of the Mind:TPI, even though this is not mentioned anywhere on the CD. The original vinyl mix has only been made available on CD on the above listed Industrial Strength Machine Music compilation.
  
• Oddly enough, this video was banned from certain outlets because it was believed that the footage in the 'borders' was pornographic. It was in fact footage from the floor of the stock exchange.
