Endless fields of gray Monotonic mind process Failing to compute array Passing moments are worthless Fleeting drifting dreams Tide washing away all hope Dark depressing themes Pull and tug my life with rope There must be more that I'm not seeing Help me change the course my is life on There must be more that I'm not being Help me overcome what I've done wrong

Wake up, get dressed Put on my hazmat suit Release, air lock Jump into Acid Ocean Walk 3 miles To my boring job Harvesting organs Out on a meaty field Just a normal day Just a normal day On Jarjeton Back at my house I find I have no food Walk into town Through the Carbon Forest Dark black evil trees Try to talk to me They want me to Kill my entire family Just a normal day Just a normal day On Jarjeton My quiet little planet Is just so beautiful I love to sit and listen To the sound of the war with the squid people My small and quaint abode Is remarkably peaceful Especially when you think about The giant groundhog-pigs that rape me to sleep Just a normal day Just a normal day On Jarjeton

God Save the Queen I've always known that tune But it sounds different now Like it's another song From another time or place Everything is dirty And doesn't seem quite right The Thames is literally filled with shit And the poor run around like putrid rats Even the rich contaminate the world with their filth Giving nothing but hate and disgusting energies My world feels very wrong But I can't understand why I've lived here my whole life Right? I guess it's just one of those days One of those days where I lose my head And instead of finding it right where I put it I find it three days later in the market Next to the cabbages It's just one of those days Where all of reality is slowly melting away Revealing a dark and horrid truth That nothing is real and nothing matters It's just one of those days Where a good night's rest will refresh and awake me I hope So i just keep telling myself It's just one of those days

Flashing lights (pulsing) Cannot go to sleep to escape (this world) A different place and time when everything is not in Fast forward (go go) Gotta get here gotta go there (in the city) Never any time to slow things down and take a chill They always say now The future's here But where has it gotten us Where's it gotten me Still can't sleep The lights are making my mind ache My heart race, can't think straight God help me But there is no God here in this future land utopia, dystopia, entropy a concept and physical law that humanity is bending and breaking with each growing generation of fools who act like this world is ours to do with as we please, oh please just get me out of here and Take me home Where ever that may be
6.
This is a place that I am both familiar and unfamiliar with I glance upon the earth and constantly remind myself why I am here To calibrate and maintain facilities on this orbiting installation But that answer is hollow and sickening My mind is drifting between different worlds Only now do I glimpse this fact Yet I do not fully comprehend it I feel as though it's a matter of time Before something goes terribly wrong And I can do absolutely nothing to stop it
7.
What is this Where am I Who are these people I cannot understand them I run out into a field And see a plain of rice patties Near a village of simple houses I fear a time completely unknown to me Has stole me from my home I want to go back But I don't know how I got here I have no machine I have no ruby slippers I have no magic genie I have my dwindling mind and warped reality and tortured existence And I feel as though that will be taken away from me shortly enough
8.
I know of the heat that engulfs me But I do not feel it I know of the sun that I stand upon But I do not see it My mind is floating to past worlds and times My senses barely grasp this hell that I reside God knows where I'll be tomorrow Or if I'm even truly here right now Please remove these memories I cannot understand them All I wish is for my mind To be at peace again If only this bright burning star Would swallow me whole And reduce me to nothing but ash Curse this wretched existence
9.
This plane of reality is as warped as my consciousness Freezing tundra void of all light and warmth The future is now and the sun has burnt out And only the frost giants rule the land I feel like a blubbering puddle of goo Trickling to a spittle of nothingness These past places race across my thoughts And their memories rob me of all I know From the river of mud To the spheres far beyond And the civilizations of new and old My existence is not compatible with any of this Please stop No more I am unraveling My mind is melting My time will end as a conscious slave
