Abnegating Cecity

Lyrics

[Regular text: Fredrik, italics: gang vocals, bold: both] Your words such unessential lies Refract my barred-up eyes Keep on telling me I'm confined In my "shell of hallucinations" So try and make me realise Break my secure enclosure Try and I know you'll make me laugh To hell with your damn comprehension You belabour me for past and present mishaps As if I had the might of alteration You've had your trips into my brain; I know you begrudge Now let me leave for my amenity So you see, you white-coated freak I don't need your allegations Instead, join me to sanity's end With my sweet needle of salvation Increasing needs (Of my only friend) The one I trust He runs in my veins (Hides me away) Under his soothing crust (Madness reigns) You're no longer in charge of my alluring illusions That takes me wherever I want (Malnutriated malice) Rises strong and makes me the ruler of (Earth, wind and fire) As reality fades, I'm a king on clouds The self-pity no longer runs in my veins I'm a malevolent revelation Please let me stay—Give me more [Guitar Solo] Left out, dragged down into emptiness Drowning in floods of misunderstanding Why do you all look aside? You're ripping my dignity away Inside, identity is leaking out Realisation is catching up on me My needs bashes false immortality Into my affected being Chaos Cravings of delight Slowly eats my soul Trapped within myself Defraying my own lies Bewalling my demise Deep penury... Internally I feel marred by errors, can't you see? My desires are calling for me The sovereign of abnegations Swings his feelers for a new relation Come, mesmerise my oppressive mind Tear apart these vehement cravings Give me something to live for, bring me back From my purgatory of obsessions Increasing needs (Of my only friend) The one I trust He runs in my veins (Hides me away) Under his soothing crust
