My delusions are my favorite kind of illusion My hallucinations are my favorite kind of imagination My biggest motivations come from my visions They form all of my most important decisions Is it a Messiah complex If I can foretell what's coming next? Psychic or plain common sense The stars and planets on some cosmic dance Spinning around until they can shake them away Their cars and their jets on some private chase For another better more secure place They didn't understand you can't disrespect space The world of yesterday, is now so far away The future is no longer the same endless day And when the sun has turned the sky grey And East and West have nothing more to say Can we come up with a better, better way? My place on the spectrum My brain picks up the drum My right hand shading the sun My left hand picks up the gun Part of a race that has a superiority complex The only ones God could possibly have blessed Always thanking him not to be in their place As though they could never be touched by grace My delusions are my favorite kind of illusion My hallucinations are my favorite kind of imagination My biggest motivations come from my visions They form all of my most important decisions Is it a Messiah complex If I say I could read through the subtext? That the whole living process Had to be reassessed We're not getting out of this mess As long as we don't surrender access Is it a Messiah complex If I offer a new concept? To go against the pure lack of human taste They all fight amongst themselves to suggest The world of yesterday, is now so far away The future is no longer the same endless day And when the sun has turned the sky grey And East and West have nothing more to say Can we come up with a better, better, better way? My place on the spectrum My brain picks up the drum My right hand shading the sun My left hand picks up the gun Part of a race that would willingly elect The only ones God would never possibly select Always choosing never to accept The devil could still govern the planet It's not a hindrance When it redefines consciousness It's not a real dance If your heart is motionless

There has to be some skin, fur and blood In which I can take shape There has to be some liver, kidney and lungs With which I can take a breath Does nature come, does nature come with borders?

I digest my failures I inject some new cure Their work is miraculous They were put to such good use I never stopped I never stopped sinking I never stopped I never stopped thinking The chaos never stopped writhing The calm never failed arriving Hanging tight to the path of the loop The walls never leading to a roof To like such a work of heart Ought to be quite hard If I don't admit the truth Maybe it will just go away Maybe if I feel it's a wrong way I will end up feeling okay Maybe if I become someone they never knew The unfulfilled dream won't survive the day If something is missing on my part It's surely not pieces of my heart I digest my failures I inject some new cure Their work is miraculous They were put to such good use I never stopped The cost of a passion Sometimes is the frustration That can lead to self-destruction Dreams that end up sabotaged When something so genuine By their laughs gets ravaged The whole outcome so unjust and so obscene To like such a work of heart Ought to be quite hard If I don't admit the truth Maybe it will just go away Maybe if I feel it's a wrong way I will end up feeling okay Maybe if I become someone they never knew The unfulfilled dream won't survive the day If something is missing on my part It's surely not pieces of my heart

The act of sleeping was no longer Brought upon us to repose our muscles and bodies It was the endless act of thinking Which tired us all along The mind needed to break free from thoughts For a good few hours Through which the body was no longer ours Served to thoughtlessness Falling asleep in the after-afternoon Had become like a hunger, a hunger I had become addicted, addicted to A relentless slumber, a relentless slumber A kip so unlike the night sleep Dreamless and so artificial A pleasure yet so deep Fearlessness and peacefulness I devour every minute of rest I really needed that sleepy, sleepy year For it became bearable to live, to live in fear A sleepy year to bear the fears Always hungering for a much-needed kip And waking with a mind so clear Filled with such satisfaction and power Satisfaction and power To have escaped for a couple of hours Depending on unconsciousness Running towards its comforting darkness Falling asleep in the after-afternoon Had become like a hunger, a hunger I had become addicted, addicted to A relentless slumber, a relentless slumber A kip so unlike the night sleep The satisfaction of reaching The pleasure of falling asleep And the body and mind's most natural state I devour every minute of rest I really needed these sleep-inducing meds For it became unbearable to be, to be out of bed

What was the point of my pandemic breakdown? What was the point of losing so many pounds? What was the point of my pandemic breakdown? I knew it would come into the house I'm so tired of suffering Every time I create something Something more dies inside Something more dies inside me

Fear is what we all share The sense of self is what we must all face There is no possible escape Once they decide of your fate Their feelings were undeniable But God do we love our table! Blood is growing inside me As soon as I'm swallowing the meal Death is on my tongue And there's nothing wrong! May be so nasty nasty but goodness it's so tasty!

It's just our daily needs Now let me just focus on how I feel We're lied to but we do love the rituals We only care about our own struggles As long as we can silence the wordless voice As long as we can feel our own joys Their feelings were undeniable But God do we love our table! Blood is growing inside me As soon as I'm swallowing the meal Death is on my tongue And there's nothing wrong! May be so nasty nasty but goodness it's so tasty! Can we just forget they ever even existed? Taste is the excuse Pleasure is what I choose As long as there's the taste It's so easy to forget What's wrong with it?

Some good will was all it took Refuge found in the pages of a book So many dreams do materialize So much good will just takes off and dies You don't get to grieve me When all you had to do was to believe in me I relied so much on your good will I depended so much on you not to leave me You don't get to grieve me When your good will is the last thing you'd give me When a trapped light lived in me And all it was allowed doing was slowly burning me And the irony was that - Tragedy comes from our strength Tragedy comes from our strength Not our weaknesses Our strength opens so many pathways But when we cannot wander When we cannot wander towards the right way Fate and destiny seem to have been sold Tragedy finds shape in what we could do Or rather what we could have done Or rather what we could have done Tragedy is the one story should never be told Tragedy is the one story should never be told But free will led us away from our god Free will led us away from our god Good will, good will Good will, good will Free me from a body that's growing ill Good will, good will Good will, good will Arm me with blood to spill And free will for a shield Grieve me But never believe in me Grieve me But only after you leave me Grieve me but never give me, give me The validation of what lives in me Some good will was all it took Refuge found in the pages of a book Never give up on making us dream Never give up on making us dream Will you ever get to believe me When I come out as an actual visionary No one else gets to see me In the glory of a truth that's non binary And the irony was that - Tragedy comes from our strength Tragedy comes from our strength Not our weaknesses Our strength opens so many pathways But when we cannot wander When we cannot wander towards the right way Fate and destiny seem to have been sold Tragedy finds shape in what we could do Or rather what we could have done Or rather what we could have done Tragedy is the one story should never be told Tragedy is the one story should never be told But free will led us away from our god Free will led us away from our god Good will, good will Good will, good will Free me from a body that's growing ill Good will, good will Good will, good will Arm me with blood to spill And free will for a shield Grieve me But never believe in me Grieve me But only after you leave me Grieve me but never give me, give me The validation of what lives in me
