Mental Siege
Out of their time, primal delusion
Mental siege – You’re not alone
Seduced by submission, it’s so easy
Mental siege – Don’t accept what you don’t see
Words don’t come out, massive confusion
Share your thoughts with us
There are many like you and me
Trapped in a mental siege – Out of society
Swallow their pervertry
Their laughter becomes your pain
Tormenting your alienated shell
Mirror of their mockery
Agony is what you gain
Crucified in this living Hell
Transcend the sphere of flesh
Pathological affliction
Deny the materialist truth
Search your soul in the horizons of the past
Reach divine comprehension
Your Saviour’s in you
They seek for your silence
Internal serpent
Sadism killing inside
They demand your submission
And you remain silent
Pretending you’ve already died
How hard is to look inside
To make conscience step aside
Wanting to know what fills ourselves
You might think you’re alone – But you ain’t
You’re not a sinner – But neither a saint
How hard is to hide pride
When Man and fear are side by side
Tearing reason with an hideous spell
You might think you’re alone – But you ain’t
You’re not a sinner – But neither a saint
Fear they feed
Laws of greed
You’re obligated to kneel
Puppet for them to lead
Beneath their will
Mental siege – Just pretend still
What they want, you do – As always
Their lies must be true – In many ways
Do you believe in you? – Is that the price you pay?
