Emotional paralysis
Distortes view of life
Cancerous catharsis,
Feelings fueled by strife
Build a picture,
Form an image
Regulate the flow
Brick up the cracks,
Dam the gaps,
Fight to stem the flow
Modified reactions,
No outward sign
To those you hear
Instinctive indications,
Turn away from those held dear
Mentar rear-guard action,
Train of thought runs wild
Outside interference,
There's nowhere left to hide
Wondering, questioning,
Fearing the black
Running, hiding,
Too scared to turn my back
Unfeeling, unseeing,
Paranoia within
Silencing, deafening,
Tumultuous din
Cleansing the sickness,
Feeding the soul
Drawing the power,
Highlighting the goal
Beat into submission,
Suffer the condition
Rip upwards and outwards,
Destroying within
Unheard, the voiced deafen
Unseen, the dry rot spreads
Unknown, the fears that beckon
Time stop, fatal dread
