Mapplethorpe Grey Lyrics
Androgynous we are.
Ancient statues deformed in desert winds.
Dead children play in mapplethorpe grey.
Midnight orgies at the school for the blind.
Learn to feel all over again.
My name is anonymous.
I taste like everyone.
Medication blurs the last five percent.
Ancient statues deformed in desert winds.
Dead children play in mapplethorpe grey.
Midnight orgies at the school for the blind.
Learn to feel all over again.
My name is anonymous.
I taste like everyone.
Medication blurs the last five percent.

Humanity has no identity. We've become numb, vague crumbling ruins of people and of a society, but one could argue it's always really been that way.
The last bit of individualism we have is sedated. We are left blind by our vacuous depravity to our surroundings.
Androgynous we are- the on-going leveling of the sexes into one big mass of bar coded plastic humanity. Like the Jews yeah but our concentration camp is all of western society now. Work makes you free
"My name is anonymous." 4chan reference? Just kidding. For such an insane, violent sound, PD sure do have some poetic lyrics.
Additionally of note:
Robert Mapplethorpe was a famous b&w photographer, known largely for his images of flowers and naked men.
I think this song was inspired by the events (particularly the health inspection scene)of the movie 'Schindler
s list',which is shot in a black and white (Grey) or something similar to renowned photographer Robert Mapplethorpes black & white photos."Androgynous we are";meaning the male and female Jews were inspected simultaneously one could nt tell who is who."Ancient statues deformed in desert wind" ; There ancient heritage and will destroyed."dead children play in Mapplethorpe grey";Setting the scene that there innocence soon will be sent to the gas chambers but they dont know of this yet.The midnight orgies is the raping of the woman and children in the dark."My name is anonymous"; Jews had no names they had numbers.They were medicated to blur the little they had left...LOL I seriously don`t now what this song is about.
