Lyrics

A sustained static gaze
Oblivious to surroundings
Empty, strained, unmoving eyes;
Introverted, paralyzed
A burning mass of emotions denied
Enraged by years of silencing
An accumulation of feelings suppressed
Returning to devour
Bright rays of chaos
Generated by subconsciousness
A retribution by own thoughts;
Twisting the mind into fits
Fuelled with pains unveiled
Burning with contamination
Set afire by disowned self-lies;
They penetrate the eyes

I... am I the next?
Self inflicted overload
Thoughts returning to think me away
I... will I be reprieved
Or am I just awaiting the sentence of my exquisite
Internal machinery of torture

The turmoil arises
From the innermost core of denial
Shining streams of putrefaction
Reflugent with disease -
In outward motion to redress the balance by retaliation
A terminal journey to relieve cognition of ability
Minds lit like candles
By rejected senses and emotions
Tearing flames
Born in mind;
Creations of self deception
Strained
Not to lose the grip -
Humans locked in the new disease
A light by eyes unseen has come to burn us clean

Ref: i... am I the next?......

I sense;
The facilities of the bodily;
Discorporated by the light
All my pleas;
Denied
By my psychological enemy
The inner light unseen

I... I'm deceived by my
Receiving eyes; - susceptible
To the endless killing-sights

Consciousness fails the grip
Substance now decreasing
Amorphous
Without shape - I'm vanishing;
Dematerialized
My own corrosive thoughts -
Probes armed with acid tools
Disintegrated
I'm bleached out of reality
Scattered bits internally;
My last transparent remains;
Floating objects inanimate;
Spinning into my soul
Defeated by my contents
Tables turned
I'm a thought repressed
I'm swallowed into myself
Destination; nothingness

I... am I the next?
Self inflicted overload
Thoughts returning to think me away
I... will I be reprieved
Or am I just awaiting the sentence of my exquisite
Internal machinery of torture
I... I've been the next
My self inflicted overload
My neglected thoughts have thought me undone
I... I was never reprieved
Now I know the sentence of me exquisite
Internal machinery of torture
