My Mind's Eye

My Mind’s Eye
Listen…
To the music
Within...
Can you hear it?
It echoes
Inside my mind
Just listen…
Don’t you realize
All these melodies
Of all the lies?
They whisper to us all
Speaking nothing to me…
Asking things of us
This wicked darkness…
Dwelling in my head
This twisted music
Filling me with dread
Coaxing my tears
Bringing upon our fears
It’s chaining me down…
Stealing me a worthy crown
This symphony so sick
We’re drawn to it
Never knowing
Never ending
The music corrupts us
Penetrating our souls
Swimming through our blood
Blowing our minds
The melodies carry us
Like boats in a flood
Like age through time
The music knows who you are
The music can see who you were
Circling down
We turn into clowns
Servants to the music
It’s twisting my mind
Mutilating my heart
It’s grinding me smooth and fine
But it makes me a ragged diamond from the start
It hurts, boiling in my soul
But I refuse to pay the Ferryman’s toll
It poisons my heart
Changing it to some warped art
This symphony
Of everlasting…
Sickening…
Threads
It’s killing us
So many of you are dead…
We’ve fallen victim to the music
We’re losing our heads
My eyes are closed
I can’t open them
In fear of change
My heart is black
I won’t fade back
My soul is dead
The music won’t return my head
My mind is disfigured
There is no cure
For my shaded mind
There is no saving me
From all these lies
From all my cut ties
We’ve all become lost
Within my Mind’s Eye
