See the silent cast aside
The unlucky leave here alive
Nightmare for their haunted souls
Thrust into the world, fear unfolds
End the structured life, into the crowd
On edge, the damned scream aloud
Caged wolves, can't join the herd
Liberated life, the absurd
Sane, chained to the walls
Whether in mind or mortar
Pulling at the restraints
What to do when they give
Unprepared to be free
Iron bars my home
Outside prison walls
Emptiness alone
Is life worth it outside
Dead to most, if not all
Who'd mourn for me
Stop trying
Fall to my knees and reach for the sky
Losing context
Drifting away
Tough to take
Hated and feared wrongly
Seen it in the past
Time and time again
Unrelenting masses
Long live condescension
Willing indoctrination
For purpose and pride
Opinion isolation
Strong arm and mind
Excel, rise through the ranks
Programmed to serve
Iron will combined
With courage & nerve
Meaningless in this place
Blinders removed
Try to cope and survive, failure
Foundations melt away, where do I stand
Losing context
Drifting away
Tough to take
Hated and feared wrongly
Seen it in the past
Time and time again
Unrelenting masses
Long live condescension
LET ME IN
Through all the mistakes I've made in my life
I can never get away from everyone's eyes
No matter how hard I try to change
Always watching
Always waiting
Waiting for me to make the same mistakes over and over again
No matter what I do or how hard I try
It ain't up to me
It doesn't matter what I believe
Because nothing will ever be the same
No
No more
Of this struggle
Of this garbage
I will prove you
I will show you
Why we're broken
I'm not broken
You're all broken
Waste this world
Bring it down
End this suffering
Who's the joke
Who's laughing now
Slave, order with no retort
Beyond the realm of doubt
Contrived perception reigns
Spared the reality
Like water in a glass
Conforming profile
False structure and strength
From outside control
When freed on your own
Meltdown in panic
Stranger to yourself
Can't assimilate
To this life and you'll never know why
Losing context
Drifting away
Tough to take
Hated and feared wrongly
Seen it in the past
Time and time again
Unrelenting masses
Long live condescension
