There lies a plan Cerebral punishment subdues the gifted hand Through hidden waves All hope for logic will slowly drift away A long night falls, bright eyes begin to fade Vivid displays remain the same To draw a drop from an anceint stone Freely led to catastrophe Muddled thoughts Shallow souls Soaking in waste Will take its toll Crucial time A lethargic view Through lifeless eyes We see a skewed, chaotic world Invade Occupy your senses Forget creation, a realm around the star Forget who you are Discontent Misery Distributed Socially Secretly Silently Quitely Enslaving The shrouded entity weighes heavy in my mind Conversion is attained, perception weakens over time There lies a plan Cerebral punishment subdues the gifted hand Time unfolds true Space filled with time to waste, a frozen face, this plan divides us all Its divided we fall

A shameless change of habit An altered point of view That thought of one escaping Never fails to elude Another change approaches Another mask displayed To hide behind illusion A true form to never be exposed Integrity consumed The simple fact is that the mindless conformist is you Unwavered social preference The brand-less loyalty Seemingly careless patterns Crafted so carefully Exclaiming opposition Yet living unconsciously Adhering to position Is still conformity Integrity consumed The simple fact is that the mindless conformist is you.

Why? Traverse through servitude To join the hollows who have long forsake the sun Surrogate souls, governed from a far Slowly diminished by the ones who'll watch us die A glass eye demon observes with visions of the past An attempt to discern our insurrection Feels like I'm lost in time My mind has died and dried, my body left in phantom form Yesterdays decay, many years will fall behind Awakening thoughts of dissatisfaction Set up to fail True Plan not realized Left dead inside Rot without decay What is time, in this eternal tomb? Whats left to give us hope? Our minds are pacified Our will demoralized Our sense of time divides across the line they've drawn inside Held out of reach To ensure continued torment The denial of true reward Why? Entertain a frame of mind To give a life away to save their day some precious time Yesterdays decay Many years have fallen behind Still at the whims of the ones who'll watch us die

Red eyes burning bright A fog of smoke, and choking fills the night... Lightweights fall astray, With minds so fucked up they begin to pray "Oh Dark Lord, please take the bong away!" But No! Admist the haze And standing six feet tall A monster made of glass Looms above us all. The devil leans in close and breathes "I promise you it will be the last one One more toke will set you free... Don't be such a fucking pussy, son." The skies cloud over Prepare for the hit... A thunder clap has sounded The bowl, it has been lit... The chronics all take their turns Their brains begin to swell Six hundred and sixty five tokes each one more will send them straight to hell You can't see You can't move You're lost now And stuck in this room with... Bonghit...Destruction! Red eyes still Are burning bright Yet all you see Is a sea of green Stick around, my corpse-like friend.. This next bowl's Laced with PCP.

You can't see it But you can feel it Your tingling spine alerts Awareness of all those eyes Heart rate elevating Tension Fear Confusion Anxiety Darkness Delusion Voices Haunting Moving faster but is this real Or just a self imposed Living nightmare I can't see it But i can feel it There's something lurking Awaiting in the shadows Paranoia Has taken it's hold Crippling Mind control Phobias Have taken their hold Paralyzing Thought control You can't see it But you can hear it All those voices that are Whispering inside your brain Short of breath Asphyxiating The silent terror that Invokes illusion's consciousness Dreading what's yet to be The unknown is haunting me Helpless to retain control Fears creep in, and now possess my soul

Walk through fallen ranks Through men who once stood tall Left with visions of decay Atop a madman's rise A witness to the fall Watch them slowly waste away Years pass by, now stone dry Yet I still bleed My daily blood That blood is ours The salt that licks the skin Drained of all vitality Feels like time is standing still But days are flying by This is the path to nowhere This is Infinite Grind Waiting, fading, forever denied Suffer, failure, earn your demise Walk through fallen ranks Through men who once stood tall Met with visions of decay Below a madman's eyes A victim to the fall Watch as I slowly waste away
