Crux Lust

I can't walk through life when it all wears down
I won't lie, I don't have a clear mind
I don't have a clear mind!
Push! Push! Push!
We run away
I call it rejection
You call it affection
Cast away, I'll cast away

How I perceive my own beliefs is clearly up to me
I guess sharing the light's not what it was
I was your eye on the inside
Still hypnotized with your eyes wide open
Better run before you know you're in the hold of something
That came to take you to a place of the nameless
What is this place?
I can't escape it

If the time is right you see them hang above the skies like hawks
Trap you in their claws and crush you
Then they turn around expecting to control you
They won't control you!

But if what was wrong and what was right we're sound and not ignored;
Then maybe I could be the voice inside that head of yours
Wondering what makes your clock tick backwards
I wait and watch you pick your prey and break their backs
Its madness

They'll mislead you to a lost truth
How will we ever find our way?
They see you, it's haunting
They'll tell you it will be okay
Why do you hide from them?

Because they already see you
But you're stronger than them
You won't break or bend
They can't hold you down

But if what was wrong and what was right we're sound and not ignored;
Then maybe I could be the voice inside that head of yours
Wondering what makes your clock tick backwards
I wait and watch you pick your prey and break their backs
Its madness
Still hypnotized with your eyes wide open

I can't escape it
