Born into obedience
In a world where nothing's free
Fill my time with time to kill
Bound to the chemistry
What you see is not what you get
What I am, can I forget?
All my senses, my defenses
Are flagged in red
The belief I'm free to choose whatever
Has brought me here, where I may lose
My dignity, an empty desert
And now it's war
I've been trapped in this illusion
Fighting to break free from the misery, from the disarray
I won't die in this seclusion
Longing for the ultimate fantasy
Born into this sick world
All alone, no one could know
Through the sticks and the stones
Bruises unable to show
The senses that have guided me to this place
Are suddenly confused by rage
The belief I'm free to choose whatever
Has brought me here, where I may lose
My dignity, an empty desert
And now it's war (Now I'll be waging a war)
I've been trapped in this illusion
Fighting to break free from the misery, from the disarray
I won't die in this seclusion
Longing for the ultimate fantasy
I've been trapped in this illusion
Fighting to break free from the misery, from the disarray
I won't die in this seclusion
Longing for the ultimate fantasy
The lines they wrote in blood
Forever bound to unspoken words
Of ties that go way back
Leaking through the cracks
The lines they wrote in blood
Forever bound to unspoken words
Of ties that go way back
Leaking through the cracks
The lines they wrote in blood
Forever bound to unspoken words
Of ties that go way back
Leaking through the cracks
My free will, just an illusion
