Where to start
I think about this everyday
I wonder if I may have lost my touch
What came from patience and gracious intentions
Now rests on a burning pile
I was so young, so bright
Full of life, now I'm too old for this
Yeah right, I'm still alive
The war inside my mind
Perpetuated by inconsistencies of life
On and on it goes
What you see is what you get here
The surface is as deep as it goes
You want to know yourself
You must be ready to drop all notion
Of what you think you know
And accept you're just a part of the show

Though the season's changing
The thought's still on my mind
All this time wasted
Contributing to this worlds own device
Pulling you in
Feeding off your flesh to make two cents
I'm not giving in to their recommended life to live
They mix their piss and shit together
Then sell it as gold
And tell us every year we need an upgrade
They may not know anyway better
Heartless, greedy sons of bitches
Watch us moving through their maze
I won't let this world define me
I'll pave my own way
Around all the vices I see of living day to day
Bide all the time that I need to feel this way
Living out our days estranged
Aside from all this, I'm comparing me to you
We're the people who turn our dreams to memories
Not the kind who lives-out to decipher
And pick apart everything
Of someone else's life, goals, priorities
And every time I think out loud about this
We're left feeling worthless
With nothing but to hold onto the hate
From the wardens who judged us
Feeling like we need to break away
I won't let this world define me
I'll pave my own way
Around all the vices I see of living day to day
Bide all the time that I need to feel this way
Living out our days estranged

Decadent soul
I step through the door
To pues of burning eyes upon me
Suddenly, as if I don't belong
It felt wrong, kinda like the way it did when I was young
Hi-jacking love
I'm beginning my decent to Hell
They tell me
I'm beginning my decent to Hell
Because I dont believe a word they say
They so boldly proclaim
If you accept Him then you're saved
Then what be the fate of every poor soul
Not born into christian faith
You worship arbiters of peace
Yet battle over which should be crowned as king
No issues forfeiting sovereignty
When your will's still "free"
Despite your full embrace
I see a rock adrift in space
Despite my lack of faith
I recognize this may end as strange as you claim
Just don't be afraid
If, when you wake
Things aren't the way
You thought they'd be
My heavens, dirty devil on my shoulder
Tells me pleasure's only down the road
What happened to the other guy
The one who's rockin' the white robe
He told me don't ask questions
You won't want the answers to
But if I have to answer you
We won't be seeing that guy anytime soon
