Scraping the barrel of sanity On your knees you will crawl Pain, suffering, brutality As moth to flame, you're drawn Searching, seeking, unfeeling In slavery you bow Squirming, screaming, bleeding Trapped in the eternal now Most futile desperation Panic exudes from your pores Subservient, deviant sow From child of light to putrid whore This sound repels the energy Gateway to oblivion So loud, it penetrates your apathy Horror twists to fascination Fresh page of proclivities forbidden Damnation served at any time Sentenced to perpetuate ingratitude Hail to the rotten paradigm Swimming upstream in defiance The cost of which you'll bear at any price Sacred idol, self-reliance Spin the chamber, roll the dice Earth beneath your feel growing unstable Options decreasing with every breath Walk the plank of a situation you created The role you play ceases with your death Trodden by desire, reject all platitudes Double vision focus blurs the lines Perceived injustice, cultivate an attitude Flee to the recesses of your mind Time passes slowly in the void You are your own enemy What purpose was destroyed? Pursuing agony and ecstasy Agony! Ecstasy! Sadistic saviour
