Drastica

I can’t hear the scream of the blind
A forced variety
The instant release feels just right, like a sweet spot
Freedom’s just a name for being trapped

In this floating world, someone’s hand
Pushes me down, rolling in despair

The coast awakens, the truth starts to show
Saying goodbye to the daily grind

Killing myself to put on a smile
Let’s crush it all, let’s paint it red

Looking up at the sky, you say
"This world is so boring, huh?"
Like chewing gum that lost its flavor
I swear to my only god, this bland feeling
You take my hand
"It’s unreal here, like total hell"

Here, pretense means nothing
Let’s stomp it down with dirty shoes

You, gazing at the flowers, say
"This world is so beautiful, huh?"
Then you bite your finger like making a pact
Days change gradually, like a slow fade
There’s a side of you I don’t know
"I can’t laugh here, it’s like yesterday’s future"
