Dissolved, euphoria fades
Epiphany of new reality
Emptied, drained out
Vibrant colors swirl to black
The memories past
Haunt the present
Hollowed shell
A life unknown
Sinking further down and down
A gravity of no exclusion
Darkened stronghold on the mind
A straitjacket of self-containment
The mindset present
Foreshadows future
Mirrored spiral of descent
Now hollowed, you rise to the surface
Red saltwater fills wound and mind
Awake now as clouds rain to sky

The Great Heathen Army

Blood on the battlefield
Restless in demise
No dog of mercy
Your life has no enterprise
The great heathen army
Given the curse and gift of the life of death
Breath fades away
Bound away from stray
Purpose lacks from light
Purpose lacks from life
The great heathen army
Given the curse and gift of the life of death

Vicious Cycle

We just keep on doping and doping the blood of our children
To silence them
And shut them up
And if we keep on suppressing, suppressing our children's emotions
We'll shut them up
We'll build up pressure
And we'll sit back watching exploding, exploding, as children become
incapable and sick and tired
Of this problem that's gone unsolved
And they turn into shooters, and rapists, and mass-fuckin-murderers because we all just sit here
Doping and doping the blood of our children
A biological war's been waged by us within the brains and veins of our children
Creating weapons of chemical suppression and reliance which turns into unchecked violence
Prescriptions for blue little ovals with magic answers in small orange bottles
With a list of side effects longer than the damn receipt
And this deceit that we can defeat depression by suppression and calmed emotions
Will pull us under
And tear asunder the lives of our children who dope themselves
With magic ovals
