The Gas

Tendrils of green finger the sky
the gas is inching ever closer
it's your turn to die
psycho-sexual fantasies wracking my brain
feeding my bloodlust
feeling no pain

Why am I acting out like this?
why do I feel this way?
the world is crumbling down around me
don't know what to say
basest instincts realized
can't hide from myself
when will this nightmare ever end?
time will only tell

Blood is flowing in the streets
I don't know where to hide
naked women claw at me
can't stem the rising tide
no comfort in my family
no freedom from my friends
I join the madness all around
and wait for the end

Why am I acting out like this?
why do I feel this way?
the world is crumbling down around me
don't know what to say
basest instincts realized
can't hide from myself
when will this nightmare ever end?
time will only tell

The gas is getting thinner now
effects they still remain
I feel I'm getting hotter now
I know you feel the same
we drive off to the countryside
find solace by ourselves
the gas is far behind us now
but we're still trapped in Hell

Basest instincts realized
can't hide from myself
when will this nightmare ever end?
time will only tell
I know I can't stop it now
I don't know what to do
I look around and realize
the Gas is Me, the Gas is You
