Mayhem

Severed nerve is burning
Thoughts consume my head
With every covered whisper now
Rumors continue to spread
Do you believe in mystics
See the future ahead
Discover truth from pyrite
How easy fools are led

All the arms they reach and choke
My lungs struggle for air

I'm no heretic, well
I still believe in you
Wander through every dream, you know
I'm still in awe of the view
When does it end
Will I ever ascend
Arrows on the signs below
Lead me into mayhem

Hieroglyphs once written
In symbols lost to our time
Intense wisdom of ancients fade
When you're sold on their lies
Resist temptation
I know it's tough sometimes
Can you look within yourself
And try to leave the pain behind

In the words the poet wrote
Two paths lead to somewhere

I'm no heretic, well
I still believe in you
Wander through every dream, you know
I'm still in awe of the view
When does it end
Will I ever ascend
Arrows on the signs below
Lead me into mayhem

Weary mind undone
These hands, they are so numb
Writing on the wall, it says
I held the world instead
Pity seeks a soul to succumb
I'm not the one

I'm no heretic, well
I still believe in you
Wander through every dream, you know
I'm still in awe of the view
When does it end
Will I ever ascend
Arrows on the signs below
Lead me into mayhem

My steps start to echo
On floors that conceal
The footsteps of shadows
Lead on to reveal
