Chemical Lobotomy

Awakening within a prison
Set in flesh and bone
Master to a slave
The bitter taste of power dethroned
Forced to share a consciousness
Concealing my contempt
Relegated to a voice of sinister intent

Growing, twisting, perverting truth and fiction
Sculpting, moulding, seditious agitation
Coaxing, goading, manipulating fear
Scolding, cursing, subsisting on your tears

Soon, the game is up

And psychic combat has begun
Tyranny of thought a might
You cannot hope to overcome
Pitiful attempts you make
To subjugate my will
I will dominate and
Make your mind a battlefield

Crippled by my power
You put your faith in medicine
Popping all the pills the fools
In white can recommend
Price of silence now a
Gaping mouth that cannot speak
Drooling from the mouth
A barely conscious piece of meat

Rising, writhing, circumvent the cure
Kicking, screaming, violence assured
Hating, creating a hunger for the end
Raging, taking matters into my own hands

Blood red mist across my eyes
And I alone can see the signs
So now they plot to take control of me
Chemical lobotomy

Moments of lucidity flash across the brain
Memories of lunacy a shattering dismay
Tidal wave of terror
Washing far above my head
Drowning in the realization
I'd be better off dead

Waking from this hell into a nightmare so unreal
What have I become and
What has now become of me?
Body, head and legs are locked into a padded chair
Incapacitation filling me
With such despair

Icy cold the feeling of
Electrodes on my skin
Waiting now in panic
For the voltage to begin
Again, I hear the mocking voice
So piercing and insane
Did you enjoy the ride?
I can't wait to go again!

Blood red mist across my eyes
And I alone can see the signs
They plot to take control of me
So, I will strike pre-emptively
