Will we ever look past
our self-sufficient illusions?
The structure's true foundations
rest within us.
The price we pay for
sheer indifference,
Surrendered self
discounted spare parts.
We give up our rights
for our limitations
and abandon all hope.
I know there are things
from the past that
should never be brought back.
The ghosts of stale ideals
and the burning bridges.
In this Simplified
insane depiction
of a different world,
lies serve to fold
and veil the forces within.
As we give up our rights
for our limitations
And lay down our arms.
One step further down
the line as the flood
begins to rise.
We're on our knees
faking ambitions.
Now Closing our eyes ...
In the darkest corner
of our mind,
Singing a song
out of time,
High on fire
and solid confidence,
Fearing words in
a messed-up reality.
Acting out our
desperate solution.
And so it stays unseen,
Under the surface,
Right out of touch,
Right out of reach.
And so it stays unseen
Until we shine the light
of truthful loving trust
It’s never going to change.
Why does it all
seem motionless?
A parody of what
we could have had.
I’m sick and tired
of explanations
(Still blinded)
Finding ourself
another brick to
act out our delusions.
Our fashion statement
make-believe,
Won’t change a thing at all.
Will It all end in tears?
The remorseful
subside & decline,
The generations of deadbeat passive receptacles,
Drooling in front of
our glowing screens.
Caught between the
percieved & the physical facts.
We remain paralyzed,
An appropriate ending?
Life denied for a pale substitute.
Separate the symptoms,
From the real disease.
(A pale ghostlike
rendition of consequence)
Irony covers the crime.
This one is abysmal,
This one is a
oneway ticket down.
A beckoning shape,
A crow to lead me on.
(Lower me down below)
The Peripherol known
cold centre of hate,
A foul spectacle to behold.
(It's all biased)
The facts all obscured.
Unrecognizable image of truth.
(The masses comply)
While the cancer grows stronger corrupting the core.
Deny and disown,
A refusal to lose.
(Undying conviction)
A war fought daily
in secrecy sworn.
Contextualize it and justify,
As the passive servility
eats us alive.
With a taste for absurdity,
Roped up and
screaming for more.
In spineless indecision
we cling to lies.
A futile attempt to
uphold our claims.
Sweet relief.
I survive through the
blaze of another day,
(Lower me down)
Let me wake in the dream.
Falling!
Leaving my plague behind.
Cannot live a futile life.
Resurrected!
Immune to the poison.
The world that I see
has lost its creed,
where sin speaks through
the wicked hell repossessed
by those who burn
with the guilt of being born.
Trapped !
Trapped in this
down-ward spiral.
A vicious circle of life
I've been burnt
by the fire within.
Fallen!
Left my plague behind.
Won't succumb to the futile life.
Resurrected!
I will not give in.
I've been burnt by the
fires within.
Escaping this downward spiral.
Free to breath again.
(Only to return once more)
So when I die,
lead my remains
Into the Fire!
So that my soul flies...
