Heart wide open Unprotected Injured Shattered Screaming There's no chance to close it up So I'm left bleeding Counting the last minutes Of my miserable Existence I'm here wide open and naked Are you? Join me in my fragile world Or are you too scared? I dare you!

The pain of the world Digs my soul Six six six feet under Bury me In my self pity No one from the outside Just echoing voices in my head Demanding to destroy! Fault, it's my fault! There's no place I can call Home Casted out, burned at the stake in internal flames Uselessness! No mercy! I must do it! There's no other way than transience. I am messenger from hell Preaching the hateful way How to kill counterfeit love Stop praying for peace and harmony We're programmed for survival and fear The wait for flourishing The wait for justice and happiness Will be eternal Carrot and stick History doesn't repeat itself We ourselves repeat it in rapture We love and indulge our Sick sick sick proclivities Self loathing human nature Idiocy extending over centuries There's no faith in humanity And never will be. Self-eating parasites Overspread the Earth Prolonging the pain to eternity All the hate backfires We're crafted for suffering Decorated with ignorance Forced to paint mirages of faith, miracles and fairy tales What we call our progress Is plainly a mass suicide No one wants to admit No one wants to know We keep striving in blinded ignorance I'm fighting my fatal familial insomnia Truth warriors all locked up in hypersleep Worldwide opposite life, values and morals You praise what you fear the most Extinct ambitions To change the world Predestined lifeline- a guard dog To get you back and stick to the original plan. Where you belong.. My last hate outcry in defeat! I hate all happy faces I hate your fucking illusions I hate this so called reality And.. I hate the truth..

Not long for this world Destroyers are heroes And healers destroyed Truth buried by bullets Lies admired by billions That's life I hear you say Not all things are fair And you fall back To your trance Hypnotized By holograms

Akathisia 04:37
Closed circle destiny The same scenario, infinite loop You think you live forward but you just repeat We walk a predestined path With empty heads and hearts Enjoying simulated beauty The same outcome reached by same decisions Instead of destroying circle You build wall of death Self trapped and proud, denying insanity You move forward backwards Vice versa Imagination paints your evolution Reality rocks you back and forward We’re coded on destruction in our narrow minds We can’t even gasp it We can’t even imagine *** Driven by artificially implanted values We strive for more and more Until reasoning collapses To stop means to quit No one wants to be coward Blood taste in mouth Is acceptable side effect *** You’re prescribed not to feel Not to question or doubt Behavioral manual Handed by people Who want to help you To be dead! You just swallow your pill And get back to your loop You’re life on remote control You’re not in charge You’re just a replaceable machine They cannibalize you Social akathisia- accepted as norm Akathisia! Insanity means repeating the same shit over and over again, Each time expecting a different result Insane person is a person who defines himself sane Insanity apocalypse has landed No one even noticed No ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooone!

The greatest illusionists Captivate our minds We don't mind And surrender We don't mind We surrender A man with scissors Desperately Trying to free you You can't even see That you are tied The Grand Ones told That you're free

Once upon a time in a faraway flat earth lived puppets They all were careless and free. Among them there was an illusionist. He was a bright young puppet with big ambitions in life. He created a lot of joy for all other puppets. One day in his show he tried a new trick- A mass hypnosis. He hanged each puppets’ limbs in wires and assured that they were safe and he’ll take a care of them. He said his spell, twisted the spiral And crowd did whatever he said What started as joke, turned into nightmare- Illusionist didn’t break his spell.. Besotted with power and greed He kept going even wilder- Through wires he started to implement his thoughts and agendas Whenever he wanted to control someone He simply pulled the wires, puppets followed the impulse And did exactly what illusionist intended them to do. At the same time puppets thought that this action is their choice, their free will. Puppets became marionettes under illusionists spell. Along the way one puppet broke free by realizing control from the wires. Now if he could cut all other’s wires then they all could be free again. He ran with scissors to cut the wires but illusionist could not allow it. He pulled the wires and puppets knocked down the one who came to set them free. "What if we die without our wires? Illusionist promised he wouldn’t do us any harm. He takes a good care of us!” ...and all these ideas were implanted to them. Only Scissorman detected the lies and proceeded to save his associates. Illusionist got pissed off by Scissorman’s persistence and he implemented a new thought- All puppets saw Scissorman as enemy and they threw him over Earth’s flat edge. The illusionist’s show goes on till this day No one has ever broke his spell So far it’s the greatest illusion of all times If another Scissorman wakes up He’s destined to the same scenario. No one ever lived happily ever after Although everyone thought- they did Illusionist implemented false beautiful visions in empty, obedient minds. The END

There’s no way for me to escape Many roads - all closed The end. ‘Hope’ traffic signs removed and broken Possibilities exhausted I turn around in circles I need some help Everyone says they have it No one gives.. They don’t know what it is They don’t know how it works But they keep it as a bait Right in front of my face Keep entrapping me! Promises of better days.. Keep delaying Denial of truth I drown deeper.. "This will change your life: Try to dye your blood in blue" Promises, promises.. Bang my head against the brick wall (In my head.. against the brick wall..) You keep promising an easy cure Prescribe a perfect pill for this Ants hoping to turn into giants Suicidal temptation- a sweet release.. Crash into cracked bloody glass Like a blinded fly Go against the odds Bet it all! ..but the House always wins.. Blue blood never spills We’re losing our war I pull myself together Maybe this time it will work The brick wall stays the same Right where it was Well maybe there’s nothing on the other side? Maybe we’re caged animals Not understanding our true purpose? We all run for cover Just to end up in a dead end The only escape route Leads us nowhere but the cul-de-sac We believe we have a free will Free choice and decisions are made (only) by us But wherever you turn Wherever you go You realize, you go in circles And here it begins.. Where is your freedom When you’re rotating like a spinning top? Although we don’t want to admit it We’ll all end up where we want to be the least You love your fun ride I hate simulated adrenaline rush All we can see from this cage is a sky Birds that fly freely But where do they land? All that view gets us nowhere It just can give another naive hope - Escape to the cul-de-sac..

When you turn your eyes away from slaughter It doesn’t mean it’s not happening.. Dress-code is our armor Keep distracting from what’s under our shell Fragility, insanity, perversity and sickness All well disguised, secured and guarded You swallow it all what others feed you with Not ever questioning- is it all there is? Massacre painted as carnival All the blood and pain in front of your eyes But you just applaud.. Army of perfection Defends its existence By sacrificing most valuable- Ability to feel We’re ruled by heartless mannequins Where else can they lead us If not in their obsessed materiality? You see what you’re supposed to see You feel what you’re supposed to feel (Declining all errors if they ever surface) All your demons dressed up like beauties All your madness with a clown’s smile All your pain transferred to apathy All your good intentions stabbed with a cold rational blade I stay in my madness sober Feeling every nuance of collective pain Bloody chalk outline of your soul Body keeps operating from your mind Ethics over emotions Military discipline and punishment And you still justify Bloody chalk outline of your soul Body keeps operating from your mind Ethics over emotions Strangle your sanity to stay sane

Mother you granted us breath We're ripping your flesh abandoning you in agony Tons of concrete depressing our roots We fight for wrong reasons, we shut down our conscience Starlight froze red We're heading to our final destination Hereditary curse cannot be removed Salvation still lies dead above Destination We wait for salvation Snow covers empty battlefields Avarice overshadows all reasons to understand You're on your knees getting ready to crawl Prison bars divide the sky in blue squares You can't see the landscape You're locked in your four walls Broken butterfly wings won't regenerate Never We're destroying like there's no tomorrow It's us who've turned our hearts ischemic Helping hand descend from heaven Lead us to our new resort So we can rip it up, tear it down, crush it, enfetter and taunt We depart for a new life Your blood and tears on our hands Yet we said - we love you! Dusk of death brought us back to our senses How quickly can we fix forgotten promises? Vain remorse We pledge to return and make it right But if we ever come back we will start everything anew Just the way we did before.. Vain remorse No more Vain remorse Again..
