Dysmorphic

The things you see and believe

The reflection displays quite differently

Dysmorphic impressions held tenaciously

Open your eyes, behold reality

If you can bear the disappointment

When you see what you truly are

If you can choke back the repulsion

At all of your pustules, buboes, and scars

Dysmorphic - vision of self and state

Honor and compassion, avarice and hate

Dysmorphic - reflection forever barred

Can't accept what we truly are - dysmorphic

Sickened, you infect all that has occurred

With twisted truths and honeyed words

The soothing deceptions you've always heard

As you shamble along immured in the absurd

Twisted self-image cultivated

Self-gratifying death mask to hide behind

Dysmorphic animus to turn your eyes from

The rotting truth you would find

Dysmorphic - vision of self and state

Honor and compassion, avarice and hate

Dysmorphic - reflection forever barred

Can't believe how disgusting we truly are

Dysmorphic - vision, from many one

The truth undone before we begun

Dysmorphic - spawned from slaughter and war

Can't accept ourselves as we truly are - dysmorphic

Dysmorphic - eyes that cannot, will not see

Dysmorphic - distasteful truths exhumed from your mind's cemetery

So scrub the blood from your conscience

With a steady stream of comforting lies

Prey-like sheep as you stand ankle-deep

In a river of corpses left behind

Dysmorphic - vision of self and state

Honor and compassion, avarice and hate

Dysmorphic - reflection forever barred

Can't believe how disgusting we truly are

Dysmorphic - vision, from many one

The truth undone before we begun

Dysmorphic - spawned from slaughter and war

Can't accept ourselves as we truly are - dysmorphic
