State of Illusion

The time will come for us to see our debts repaid

We inject our sedated minds with synthetic purpose
We beg for profits and silver lines
A counterfeit divide from reality

We sacrificed the means to fight back
Slaves of apathy transfixed by the image distortion
Fields of endless sheep wandering through oblivion

A defiance will cease paralyzing regression
This illusion of life we must burn to rebuild

We cannot live forever
The blinding light of realization
A fragile host with empty hopes
We are wasting away in a lie

This is the way that we destroy ourselves as we long to embrace our weakness
Our material prisons thrive in a world where instincts can't survive
Possessions will feed on distant senses
Until there's nothing left but our starved perception

We're giving up on ourselves
There's a rift within us, sedated and numb

In the end, all of our vessels decay
All will return to the dust, where there's nothing left
Swallowed in emptiness

A defiance will cease paralyzing regression
Cleansing this destruction we will burn to rebuild

We cannot live forever
The blinding light of realization
A fragile host with empty hopes
We are wasting away in a lie
