crossed out of our mindscapes   we're frozen in the time   stretched around your face a mask   a clever disguise ever   so enticing this corroding chemical synapse   spawn of a beast   an ethereal drain tatters on the brink   burst into a cloud of spores   explode into the atmosphere   weaving our lives with chaotic design siphons   what's left inside   suppress us   impress us with subtle delusions   and life-like proportions   bled into one another plagiarize   our dreams   a rift in eternity   all encompassing within it's entirety..   baptized in fire   leeching the underbelly   tired traditions   retired a discord within the choir   so sing the praise with your noiseless voices    and pass the blame in the age of distorted reality   refined relief in chaos unleashed we find release
