lyrics

Drawn to desire
The control of a cultivated hive
Cease to control the extravagant ways of their own creation
Intractable fascination

Idiosyncratic existence has allured me
A computation of love and greed
It’s in our nature to want things from the other side
Leave me to my own devices

Its obsession with the steps I take
Planted seeds, growing need to forsake
Deep down it is known there’s no escape
I still deny

Do not take me from the things I seek
Though you can try, if you feel the need
I’ve trapped you here
There’s nothing left to say

My walk with the beast is creating all of my enemies
Out lashing at a voice with the absence of form
Jealous machine, has pushed me into gear
Driven to the threshold by the color green
The rage diluting the mind and masking the state of unreason

Free me from this realm, free me, free me from this realm

My walk with the beast has created all of my enemies
Out lasting at a voice with the absence of form
Compelling demands pushed me into gear
Driven to the threshold by a vain machine
Seduction controlling the mind approaching the brink of extinction

Strangely we are never satisfied
We are always yearning for more, greed empowering ambition
Our appetite equals existence
Happiness for too long we are afraid we have died
Free me

Take me to the side of acceptance
Inquisitive minds, boundless perception
