Pyrexia - Irony lyrics

When I wake up I see myself trapped inside With head in hands, I swallow my pride And everyday, I do the same rites Reaching out to break through this cage The disgust, it seeps through my skin But within, it grips at my mind As I settle in, and walk the steps of this dance Driven, by the whip that bleeds Lies are given, time is stolen, my patience reduced to nothing These fools, get under my skin feast like leeches I'm tempted to open my veins Thrown away another day It compliments to nothing Words can't express all I have to say This is just a piece of my insanity Who I am, where I roam in this cell block crazed home Detained lashing out I vent my rage The creature within us cannot be contained A million bystanders fall into this stage There is no chance of winning this race Look into the eyes of the enemy Reflections in the mirror so clear Contemplate your own self inside out Listen to the voices of reason Shatter the image of the broken one We fall into denial
