The Essence Of Unreason

There is safety in numbers

Where the truth cannot find you

Thinking with one mind you will waste away

With no virtue to guide you

There’s a battle inside of you

This is not living

This is your decay

It’s just a theory

But I’m thinking much more clearly now

I’m persevering

The truth will cost you dearly

We pursue perfection

We will suffer for it

The essence of unreason

Is the sleeping pill and you’re the bottle

Bottomless and dreaming

Now you’re wide awake and screaming

There is safety in numbers

Where the truth cannot find you

Thinking with one mind you will waste away

With no virtue to guide you

There’s a battle inside of you

This is not living

This is your decay

One decision

Can’t take the life I’m living now

A war of attrition

I’ll fight to be forgiven

We pursue perfection

We will suffer for it

The essence of unreason

Is the sleeping pill and you’re the bottle

Bottomless and dreaming

Now you’re wide awake

How long have you been straddling the fault line

Waiting for the perfect time to just let go?

Body is broken so sick and tired

Waiting for the perfect time to just let go

Don’t lose hope

Don’t dull away

This is not living

This is decay

Here you’ll be tiptoe straddling the fault line

Until you find the perfect time and just let go

A parasite

Dwells in me

This parasite

That I feed

Time to let go

I’ll let go

There is safety in numbers

Where the truth cannot find you

Thinking with one mind you will waste away

With no virtue to guide you

There’s a battle inside of you

This is not living

This is decay

Now you’re no longer straddling the fault line

Waiting for the perfect time to just let go

Body is healing, the spirit regains feeling

Waiting for the perfect time to just let go

Don't lose hope

Don't dull away

This is not living, this is decay

This is decay

This is decay

Waiting for the perfect time to just let go
