silence - part one

Folder: 
2004

ripping to shreds my mind and soul and mending them back together

everything is complete in this chemically reformulated reality

for if this summarization penetrated existence

there would be no trackmarks on my flawless marble visage

for it is every moment that I stare at this same mirror

as it seeps into my insides and takes control over my body

there no longer exists a recognition of reflection





It is as powerful as it is powerless

as courageous as it is selfish

A stranger in your house

yet at the same time everything you've always wanted to be

The iron walls have dissolved into the spirit of prostitution

Escaped from the prison that once kept you with you head held low

He stands horizontal to the sky

and can see for the  first time all the lies

of all the people wearing the masks

playing an act in a play their entire lives



it's a complete lie

it is an unreal state that exist on a very unconscious level

and for the first time I can see through their eyes

For when the red carpet comes to an end

and there you lie alone in bed

you take off your masks and your hearts bleed with pain



I have become what I hated most

the worst punishment of all

worse than the torture and torment

of the underworld itself
