I wasn't expecting this

Now everything is destroyed

Underneath us are the nothings

Underneath them is a void

Beyond that void is a place

Where figments from bad dreams are banished

Childhood nightmares all come seeking

And adult logic nearly vanished





Chaos

Inside-down, upside-out [This is what they sing in concert.]



None of this is what I wanted

I truly asked for what I got

Bang the gavel, it's lawlessness

I can't unravel the knot





Half this wretched town is starving





While the other half are bloated

Everybody hates the bastards in power

But their pill is sugar coated





I didn't need any of this

I feel anxiety in my neck

The consequences now apparent

Feeding back unchecked

Incessant blue in spiral coils

Fingers underneath the skin

Adrenaline is not my mistress

But she always knows just where I've been
