It’s in the modern myth of normalcy
these hypocritical daily routines
have I been hypnotized
lobotomized
they mutualized our brains
and the more it breaks my heart
the more I drift apart
from what I aimed at the start
If we get out alive
we’ll be defined
defined as the living proof
of all we’ve sacrificed
and all we are
and all we were
account for us
anonymous
Hold your breath and count to ten
as slowly as you can
one blink of the eye and your world starts to burn
your blisters remind you that time has turned
it will not return
There are things inside of me
that you will never see
so close your eyes
the dark
the somnolent embrace
a rhythmic clatter
the sound of a new day
it will not come back
The delusion worked until that very day
have you ever thought it would end this way
I came along to take the blame
and it hurts
when darkness falls I fail to see
when the sun shines brightly it’s blinding me
the truth lies where we never seek
it has always been that way
