It's become obvious that they are no longer respecting me A bunch of pseudo doctors surround and start inspecting The rush of social status continues infecting me This mantra savors defeat and offers ample in return Organized strikes on the willing, who just sit and wait their turn I've been letting this ghost haunt me freely Flicking an on/off switch with my sanity Torn apart as I'm stretched to my limits My mind's given up, my mind's lost it's faith in me I'm losing feeling in the feelings my feelings feel This is yours, this is yours to claim This is your snake pit of a f**ing daydream Look into the eyes of the recluse The allure gets stronger no matter how hard you refuse Kiss the fangs just to see if they'll strike
