Beyond Isis - ft OhNoDestructo
By Nehema
Freedom of choice is so important
Getting to pick and choose
With the attitude of I can't lose
Lost in the
state of conformity
Wanting to be the authority
Trying to impress the majority
Never was my
style
Prefer societies rejects
Cream of the crop
intellectual prospects
But secretly only the one's
that like the
taste
of my boot
on their face
Real and raw
never accused
of being mild
I'd rather be true,
and wild
i'll raise one foot out of my dreams
grave,
walking past the others looking at the enemies i've
made,
keep singing to myself my own songs of disbelief,
trying to take a part back but only got a piece,
their eyes stare but cannot bare,
to hand out
the medication when
they have enough to spare,
I wear this tattoo as a scar from when my life was complete,
but now I can't bring myself to eat,
sleep or even
walk down the street.
Like the loser
said down the hall,
Life was never meant to be a ball,
masquerading as a happy jester,
laughing while
the scars fester.
Alone at the end of the day,
looking back at the bullshit we all say,
to make us feel
connected to the next person in line,
when in reality
couldn't care less
what's happening outside my own mind
I've felt a thousand needles through
word,
I can't explain everything i've heard,
but the touch
and the explanation didn't quite set the celebration,
I fell off the
table during my examination,
cracked open my head and needed an
operation,
this labotomy doesn't help much,
when they all
do the same stuff,
again and again,
a wide eyed
expression until the very end,
I can still see their jaded wings,
I can still hear the faded sing and
I still get
that memory when I smell the spring
Insanity tends to eat my mind,
with memories
and ideas unrefined,
having trouble trying to decide,
what's real and what's petrified.
Mental soup
that tastes like cream,
locked away in a caustic dream,
soaked up with an infernal scream.
Leave me in
my jungle gym,
singing hysterical childhood hymns,
until I break off these plastic limbs
..
