Not What It Seems

(album: Dead Dawn - 2016)

Never crossed my mind
Everything left behind
This thickening anxiety
From flickering sobriety

Wear your nerves upon your sleeve
Do or die and misconceive
Coffin makes a snugly fit
Flushed away from a world of shit

It's not what it seems
Blinded by fear
And dead in your dreams
No it's all in your head
There's cons of living
And pros to be dead

In a horror kaleidoscope
Illuminati conclave
Just give me something to cope
Entrapped in a kingdom of slaves

And I know it's been long time coming
Been a lifelong numbing
Children of god less faith
I don't think hell can wait
I saw it all a mile away
Oh so long before today
Wide awake but no aware
For the sake of your despair

It's not what it seems
Blinded by fear
And dead in your dreams
No it's all in your head
There's cons of living
And pros to be dead

In a horror kaleidoscope
Illuminaughty conclave
Just give me something to cope
Entrapped in a kingdom of slaves
Digging your grave again
