1. No Place Darker
Waking up still weary
Fingers cold as snow
medicates my madness
This is getting old
Still numb
my eyes are open now
Distorted vision
Can't focus somehow
How long have I been here
within these pale white walls?
Drugged up and strapped to the bed
I am not a man I am nothing at all
There's no way down from here
despite the light there's no place darker
Without the dark i'd dissapear
for who am I without my fear?
I hear voices down the hall
A silent mumbling
and the warning sound of steps
echoes through the walls
Door opens
enter sweet madness
Inject your cure for my
artificial sadness
There's no way down from here
despite the light there's no place darker
Without the dark i'd dissapear
for who am I without my fear?
How long have I been here
in this chaos the world of mine
Force-fed with constant nightmares
Give me back my mind
There's no way down from here
despite the light there's no place darker
Without the dark i'd dissapear
for who am I without my fear?
There's noone here but me
a ghost of what I used to be
No god and no belief
in my place so dark
2. Indifferent
Human nature -
deny the uncomplete inside
Destination -
a perfect world of recycled life
Is this what we had in mind?
Are we still so blind?
Desperation
leads to visions out of reach
The yellow sun has left us now
so say your prayers
The only thing you can hope for now
is that your life will be recycled
Synchronize your mind
with the new reality
If you found that you could
burn it to the ground
would you refuse to stand in line
or would you follow the new design?
Deformation -
genetically perfect friend
Installation -
A programmed mind is easier to bend
In this software sanity
designed to make you high
what you see is not for real
Animation gives you life
Synchronize your mind
with the new reality
If you found that you could
burn it to the ground
would you refuse to stand in line
or would you follow the new design?
3. My Closest Demon
In my head there are places I avoid
Too dark to see and too painful to feel
When i'm awake they are numb by my control
but when I close my eyes they arise
In this deafening silence
that pins me down
they're the thunder and the storm
that throws me to the ground
They arrive in the evening
along with the dark
Carrying the strength of a thousand
and the chaos of one
from deep within
where skeleton meets skin
and where I put aside
all that I deny
The fear and anxiety
that brings me to my knees
You're the thunder and the storm
that I could never seize
So strike me once again
with the claws of fever
For you are not my friend
You're my closest demon
In this definite silence
that pins me down
you're the thunder and the storm
that throws me to the ground
So pierce me one last time
with your tusk of fever
For you are not my friend
You're my closest demon
