Paradigm Trigger

The sound of static

White noise

Pixelated scenes i don't recognize

The void behind the eyes

Lost in a lucid nightmare

Illuminate the teeth

That dig into the mind

Violent and vacant

Separate the heart from the spine

Eternal oblivion

A labyrinth built with no escape

Eternal oblivion

Permanence feeds the conscious fades

The white noise calls out to me

Paralyzing

Underneath my skin

I pulled the chord until i found the end

Where dreams suffocate

Glimpses of a grave unmarked

No pulse from a failing heart

A knife in the dark

Numbed every nerve

But it was easy to remember the ways it hurt

Can't get much worse

As i lay parallel to this earth

I felt my body detach from my soul

Distorted visions of a place i've been afraid to go

The white noise on repeat

Calling me home

The sound of static

Suspended in time

The void behind the eyes

Separate the heart from the spine
