lyrics

lost in a maze of black marble
iridescent oil slicks slither across the walls
watch the patterns emerge as the walls close in
lost in thought I wonder where I'm going
'round and 'round in circles
sure I've seen this all before
the windows are sealed and locked
looking out might be a world to explore
but I don't know what for
the noose tightens
feel the rope burn as it hugs my neck
fuck escape
I wrap myself in my grey death cape
light a cigarette
blowin smoke and watching it rise
like unanswered prayers uttered in desperation
hoping to escape
but knowing there's no point
only thing to do is roll another joint
listen to my rapid heartbeat
and the sound of my shallow breath
slicing through cobwebs of doubt
dying of thirst but drowning in the sea
stranded in my mind
I can see but I know I'm blind
if I open my eyes I know what I'll find
desolate earth
ground cracked and burned
nothing lives here
but don't tell the inhabitants
they walk around
just as lost as me
but they refuse to believe
that they can't see
emptiness fills the void
and that's how you know that you're free
my worst nightmare is real
I'm forced to know that everything is illusion
nothing is real
just plain pollution
I know what awaits at the end of this maze
I've seen it before
it's death's sweet gaze
