The Nous of Anaxagoras

Going to fast
Lets slow it down
Lets do this now
Break, hit the brakes
There's not much more I can take
They say there's nothing that the living can't handle
But what I can and what I want are oceans apart
There are certain people who make suffering art
It's not a game but it's the same
When you play the worthless pliable thing

To be dismembered
To be distorted
To be destroyed beyond
The person you once knew

You see the mirror speaks a lie but it's true
I want to live
I want to die
I want to be torn in two
Let the blackened fight the whitened
Its a war within the heavens
And they're fighting for you

Give me the facts
I want them hard
So hard it hits me like a sword in the heart
Fail, I cannot fail upon this God forsaken trail
And if I should die before I wake
Take me in
Take me and let me fall upon my blade
Sinister, fear, paranoid, crying tears
Come on boys and girls
The age of reason is near

I fear I'm sleeping awake
Everything is fake but it's all to real
Inside this mind of mind
I find so unkind
I see me wishing
In wishing
And wishing upon a star
Hoping and wondering
Just to figure out who we are
But what we do is what we do
And whatever we want to do
And actually do
Just happens to be the only truth
Oh no

Close my eyes and cover my ears
In the despair I disappear
The end of tomorrow is here
In the despair I disappear

Gehenna is a mountain
Of bodies burning by decay
The king of the hill will stand upon it
Money and murder
Fear is might makes right
Saturn has fallen from the skies
The Lord of Lords sets his throne upon it
And justice is demise

Close my eyes and cover my ears
In the despair I disappear
The end of tomorrow is here
The age of reason rules with fear
We are all just running dear
The hunter holds the truest spear
We are all just oxen tethered
Tilling fields with flesh of leather
