Illusions of separation
A prison of perception
Beliefs and expectations
Constraint of identification
Consenting to limitation
Living with deep frustration
Living deep in isolation
Don't want facts, want validation
Don't need logic, require confirmation
Abandon all assumptions, we need deviation
Silver into gold, Alchemy, transmutation
Silver into gold, Alchemy, transmutation
Lately I've been thinking
About the things I repel
The devils got me drinking
Nothing wrong as far as I can tell
Lately I've been wincing
That motherfucker knows me well
Those lies so convincing
Now all I fucking do is dwell
Work, consume, obey
Curiosity suppressed
Obedience over intelligence
How can we not regress?
Arrogance so seductive
That's hard to digest
Regurgitating facts
I am not impressed
Chaos without structure
Goals must be reassessed
Noise mistaken for intelligence
A common defect?
Silence over wisdom
How can I consent?
How can I con-sent?
Lately I've been thinking
About the things I repel
The devils got me drinking
Nothing wrong as far as I can tell
Lately I've been wincing
That motherfucker knows me well
Those lies so convincing
Now all I fucking do is dwell
Lately I've been thinking
About the things I repel
The devils got me drinking
Nothing wrong as far as I can tell
Lately I've been wincing
That motherfucker knows me well
Those lies so convincing
Now all I fucking do is dwell
Spewing facts
You got a skewed prospective
Insult, provoke, escalate
You must be defective
Rebellion without cause
Is no one introspective?
A fleeting illusion
It's all subjective
Conditioned response
You are part of the collective
Your ability to thrive atrophies
What's the objective?
Don't seek truth, seek comfort
Because truths deflected
Respect turns to fear
What are we erecting?
Lately I've been thinking
About the things I repel
The devils got me drinking
Nothing wrong as far as I can tell
Lately I've been wincing
That motherfucker knows me well
Those lies so convincing
Now all I fucking do is dwell
