Psycho Analysts, and Jailers
In-confidantes and traitors
and all the feminists, in halos
All entertain you
The Great Derailer
Alpha male manipulators
Denizens of our dictators
all the puppets and spectators
All entertain you
The Great Derailer
All our Gods and imitators
Inconsequential traders
and all the trained infiltrators
All entertain you
The Great Derailer

The Switch

There’s a child in the room
With a permanent view
Dissecting the silence
as he isolates you
I detonate – I permeate
I resonate – Assimilate
The Switch (kill it)
There’s a slip in your tomb
with a taste of the new
Rejoice in the finite
and the terminal you
I detonate – I permeate
I resonate – Assimilate
The Switch (kill it)
There’s a fool for a groom
With designs upon you
Bathing in limelight
And he’ll idolise you…
I detonate – I permeate
I resonate – Assimilate
The Switch (kill it)

The Alibi
04:39
|

Admission, of mind
Is blinded, and tied
By pretty, white lies
I picked up all the pieces (left inside…)
I am the perfect Alibi
I am the perfect Alibi
(If not the perfect bride)
Sedition, the crime
Of holding back tides
With blades of silence
The sacrificial lamb crawled in (and died…)
I am the perfect Alibi
I am the perfect Alibi
(If not the perfect bride)
Baptism, of pride
Is falling like fire
I’m crowded by violence
And burning all the bridges (I have tried)
I am the perfect Alibi
I am the perfect Alibi
(If not the perfect bride)

I’m not here to confuse you
Like our fears of losing
Like Lucifer lured you
I disputed the ruling (for what?)
I am, I am , I am the very least
I am, I am , I am the very least – Ascetic Priest
I’m eating the poorer
Retrospectively fooling
Like the blind man of Europe
You were always on board (but forgot)
I am, I am , I am the very least
I am, I am , I am the very least – Ascetic Priest
I feel none the wiser
The eternal advisor
Did I come between you?
You remind me of Sin (Such a lot)
I am, I am , I am the very least
I am, I am , I am the very least – Ascetic Priest
Open the window…..
