lyrics

i know what you are and you aren't what you say.

and impostor in familiar skin, an impostor with a deathmask grin.

an abnormal loss of train of thought there are clouds now and fog, swirls of light and shadow blended in a bottle's bottom. asaturation, i'm empty.

i would drink if i could find some water, but there is a disturbance in the process, a mask, a voyeur watching me and hastening the coming of the darkness.

go back to the dark you impostor.

damn, this disease is incurable. shameful and hurtful and tragically terminal. these fine lines are unwalkable, shaky unbalanced and unreasonable. no, there is no cure for the hopeful so keep your head up and just keep walking nowhere fast. your dreams are a symptom.

i've been to the edge and i stepped back, i've seen the way it looms. i don't want it, but i hear it every day:

"you'll be helped here, can't you hear me? you'll be helped here, you'll get relief. it's quiet here, all peaceful, you'll be helped here."*

you liars.
