about

Mental intrusions leading to harsh illusions reinforcing long-held delusions. Fantasy and reality begin to blur at their seams, but the beat of the drum in my head keeps me restless. If there is another way I am lost and confused about its pathway. I am slowly wasting away... even if I cannot give up or give in, I fear I may soon be dead.

lyrics

Mental intrusions,
All of these confusions,
Strung out, bringing upon harsh illusions
Gotta live like one with no institutions
Find conclusions to my delusions
Never ever seen a man walk like this
Don't even really have a single wish
Fantasies don't really mean much to me
Only what's in my
Immediate reality

Gotta live life right in the here
Distortions always lurking near
In the back of mind
Creeping crawling
Making sure I'm always in time

The beat of the drum that goes on inside,
My head, and the restlessness I cannot hide
For I have a beast trapped in me
Or is maybe it's the other way?

Lost and confused
Left in the nude
So embarrassed
So careless
But I live it anyway
Even as I wear myself away

I cannot give up
Cannot give in
What do you expect from me?
I hope its not much
Can only give what’s been given
Can only live when I’m breathin’

Right now hanging by a thread
Gonna be soon dead, unless
I find something inside to hide
Away my soul
