1, 2, 3 - Repeat!
day 2
similar to day 1
day 3 will confirm this theme
this repeated sequence of numbess
reasons to be dead, 1, 2, 3
Illusion is the enemy
unable to change
fearful of change
reasons to be dead
1, 2, 3
how I yearn
for something
fresh and brave
I would salute and praise as my newfound saviour
for ending the ILLUSION which THEY force feed us
THEY are the faceless pupeteers
who lead us all along a conveyer belt
of oppression while they live
carefree and exciting lives
so were was I
oh yes, day 2 with my numbed brain
ILLUSION beckons me to remain with the insane
yet dear reader a part of me is
SCREAMING - SCREAMING - SCREAMING
out to bring down their ILLUSION filled GAME
watch out for the trip wire when leaving this page
I may be a double agent checking your mind
for your current state of play
