Something cryptic lying, turning in the cold
Some strange mystery spinning on despite what we were told
Beauty kept away from mortal eye
Hidden deep within the arms of forestry and lies
Practicing the silence in my curse
Bit by bit, I swallowed it - It couldn't get any worse
Held in place by brilliant power unknown
Taught, in place, my life's a waste
Forever here alone
It's all the same
Oh, for years and years, it's always held its claim
Hear the whispers screaming, tauntingly:
"Come to us, you're one of us
This is where you're meant to be."
Almost out of place while at first glance
Tired hooves attracted to it; quick from trot to raring prance
Once a pony touches it, then pain is all he knows
Cold assimilation is the curse that it bestows
Still I feel the burning in my spine
Rods of bloody iron keep me captive throughout time
Spinning round in circles, endless cycles I despise
While hidden deep within the arms of forestry and lies
It's all the same
For years and years, and fucking years
It's always held its claim
Nothing ever changes, while we're fading at the heart
Wish I could be free of this, but I don't know where to start
Suffer out now
Suffer out now
Suffer out now
Suffer out now
How'd I get here? I don't know
Something showed me where to go
Why'd I run away from home?
Why'd I venture here?
Saw spirals in the sky
Crept into me, mesmerized
Fell for all its silly lies
Now I'm trapped in fear
What's this before my eyes?
Why am I so hypnotized
Took the bait, and, walking in,
Gave my fate into my sin.
Feel its grasp, chained frustration
Eyes wide in revelation
Now just mental masturbation
I can't leave, no, I can't stay
Putrid smell of halted necrosis
Why have I been forced to endure this
Am I dead? I can't find a reason
Why must feel this through every season
Spinning out, keep on going
With no earthly way of knowing
Ride the carousel with me
And give in to our misery
You're now one of us
So beautiful, so dangerous
We'll keep you down, we'll keep you still
We'll take away your freedom of will
One of us
One of us
One of us
One of us
Round and round and round it goes
Where it stops I never may know
Living for eternity
Blind from life, but I still can see
Hear the engines grind and steam
While skewered on my golden beam
Hellish fires behind our eyes
Reflecting on our lives
Kill me, free me, please can you see me?
Stay away if you want to die
Kill me, free me, please can you see me?
Living forever is just a painful lie
It's all the same
For years, and years, and fucking years, it's always held its claim
Nothing ever changes, while we're fading at the heart
Wish I could be free of this, but I don't know where to start
