That I Could See

That I Could See
HYPOCRISY

From the other side of the screen it must look nice
While I’m living a sham you could’ve gave a damn
From the other side of the screen it must look great
From another place filled with so much misery
My affliction is your addiction
My affliction is your obsession
My disease was your infection
I hope you feel the burn of your creation
From the other side of the screen

While I’m a wallflower
While I’m empowered every single hour
By the ghosts of the world we misunderstood
By the ghosts of the good, the ones who would
The ones who aren’t afraid to face the light
The ones who believe in rebirth
The ones who believe in planet Earth

I hope you choke on the blood you destroyed
I hope you choke on the ones you avoided
Those nagging reasons, those false beliefs
Those Godless heathens, not one of us
The tortured victims in your scheme
The tortured victims, your utopian dream

crumbled, like a king without a crown
like a castle built on sand, like a queen
without a land, a second chance
To dance the final dance
You watch us weakened but
you’re helpless as you gaze
through a haze of smoke and mirrors
the fear you can’t face

crazy
the fear you can’t face
crazy
the fear you can’t face
crazy
The faces that scare me

From the other side of the screen it must look nice
While I’m living a sham you could’ve gave a damn
From the other side of the screen it must look great
From another place filled with so much misery
My affliction is your addiction
My affliction is your obsession
My disease was your infection

I hope you feel the burn of your creation
I watch you from the other side of the screen
am I alive or am I just a machine?

I pop a pill, and wish them hell
I wish them well, oh well
Oh well, we wished them well
Feel the phantom of your creation
Fuel the anger, feel nothing.
Heart thrown upon a falling plane

An emptied dream, looking upon these eyes
The lies fall before you one upon another
Every sister and brother who
thinks it’s not over…yet…don’t forget

Don’t forget what you remember
Withdraw from it, liar
Escape them-forever
The nothing they see
Don’t listen to the truth
All that hypocrisy.

Keep staring at the screen

Trees didn’t hide the massive blackbird
The words couldn’t hide her chosen star
The sky fell upon me, a new world has begun
I wonder about space, or a distant sun.

All these reasons people think I’m deadly
when “they” could never erase my mind
Thorazine didn’t even phase me
Memories that others have left behind…

I didn’t fall for the madness of love
But this isn’t about love, this is about madness
But when I think about madness…I guess…
I wonder about what the truth is…in all my badness

There is no excuse for this, madness…
There is no excuse for us now I know
He unbinds me, he rewinds me
I rejected the confinement of a conditional
existence, resisting control!

Now confined to these four walls
Restrained to be, a perfect machination
To be a slave, to these obscene creations
Peacefully I wait for a reason
Just wake me up, Destiny.

Peaceful now, Peace for now
Peace for now, I’ll be asleep
I’ll be asleep when the machines fall away
I’ll be safe without the wall to claim me
My wires never failed after it all went away
I won’t need to be disconnected.

I’ll be right here.

This is the truth that I was rejected
This is the truth that I lied to be accepted
There is something you’ll never know
There is something you’ll never see!

This is the reason: I asked for an answer
This is the answer, you never wanted to know
when no one else believed me
I was not blind, I was never seen
The world just could not see…

Until now, because now I know
That between the walls there is an echo and those
Echoes survived, just to show me freedom
To accept the reason, the hidden truth I chose.
