Breaking Point

By HeadpatSlut

    (BREAKING POINT)


(ANGRY GUITAR OPENING)
BEFORE I TOLD YOU TO RISE UP-
I FOUND MYSELF FACE DOWN IN THE DIRT-
ASKING IF I’D HAD ENOUGH-
OF DISAPPOINTMENT ON THIS WRETCHED EARTH-
IF WE CAN WITHSTAND
THEN WE CAN SEE IT THROUGH!
FIGHTING THE WORLD HAND IN HAND!
INSIDE THE FIGHT ALONG WITH ALL OF YOU,
THE TIME HAS COME-FOR SACRIFICE,
AND TRUE ATONEMENT NO MORE!
WHAT HOPE WE HAD IS LOST IN THE NIGHT,
SURRENDERING  LIFE SO THAT YOU CAN BE SURE,
(UP-BEAT, ANGRY GUITAR BRIDGE)
AUTHORITY OF THE VIOLATION!
A FAILED NATION IS BREAKING DOWN
THE INFESTATION AND THE DESTINATION
PULL YOURSELF UP FROM THE GROUND!
THE AGONY AND ROOT OF ALL PAIN!
MISERY EVERMORE!
THE SUFFERING DRIVING ME INSANE!
CAN’T TAKE IT ANYMORE!
(----)
BREAKING DOWN!
THE BLOODY SILENCE IS ALL AROUND!
SIRENS BELLOW THE WARNING SOUND,
SNAP OF THE SYNAPSE, COLLAPSING NOW!
FACADES OF PEACE ARE YOUR INABILITY-
BUILD A WALL OF YOUR INSECURITY-
CAN’T RESIST THE DARK INSANITY-
HYSTERIA AND PANIC WITHIN ME!
THE WARRIORS RETURN FROM FIGHTING/BLEEDING FOR YOUR RIGHTS-
THOSE WHO NEVER FIGHT FOR ANYTHING DARE TO FUCKING HATE THEM-
BUT COME ON MOTHERFUCKERS NOW I'M READY TO FIGHT-
SHED BLOOD UPON THEM!
(----)
BREAKING DOWN, UNABLE TO SEE,
ALL THAT YOU’VE FORCED ONTO ME!
ALL THAT I’VE LOST TO YOUR DEITY,
I FIGHT FOR FREEDOM 'CAUSE I'M FUCKING FREE!!!
(ANGRY GUITAR BRIDGE)
BREAKING DOWN!
BLAZES OF GLORY FALLING OUT!
THE LIES OF SECRETS ARE CAUSE FOR DOUBT!
BREAKING DOWN IN THE FINAL SOUND-
I FEEL THE PAIN AND THE STAIN THE FUCKING LIES ARE THOUGH-
JUST WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?
IT DOESN'T MATTER NOW ONE THING IS TRUE-
NOW I'M FREE AND I'M FUCKING COMING AFTER YOU!!!!
(GUITAR SOLO)
THE BROKEN PROMISE YOU BELIEVE
IN YOUR SLAVERY STATE OF MIND THE POLITICIANS AND LEADERS DECIEVE,
JUST WHAT EXACTLY DO YOU THINK I’M TRYING TO FIND!?
THE VIOLATION AND THE INFESTATION!
THE BROKEN NATION IS ABOUT TO FALL!
THE DESTINATION AND THE CRUCIFICTION!
ARE CALLING OUT TO ALL!
I’M BREAKING DOWN!
I KNOW I’M FALLING DOWN AGAIN!
I’M SO CLOSE TO GIVING IN!
THE ASHES SCATTERED INTO THE WIND!
THEORIZING EVOLUTION AGAIN-
AND I STILL CAN’T SEE WHY,
SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO LAY DOWN AND DIE!
THE GENTLE BREEZE FLOWING THROUGH MY HAIR,
I’LL DISAPPEAR INTO THE AIR,
WHERE WE’LL ALL GOING I DON’T KNOW WHERE,
ALL I KNOW IS-
DESPAIR
(PIANO OUTRO)

    I like the idea that you have an idea what this sounded like in your head. I can't stand reading things in all capitals, but otherwise it was definitely perceived as an angry piece.
