Lyrics The Agonist

The Agonist

Chlorpromazine

I awoke to a complex chemistry.

So, I went to a neuro-surgeon inquisitively to see what she could see.

But she only knows what she's taught

so I turned to a tree to see what he thought.

And he asked: when does three equal one plus one?

The answer is birth, life's creation.

Then suddenly flames rushed past. Green turned to black, and life turned to ash.

Because I believe in everything,

I'm convinced of nothing.

United we ran, divided we crawl.

It just takes a common enemy

to make a friend.

Marry hope and fear,

invent a color

And so, it's gone as quickly as it came.

Raging tides galloped forth to extinguish the flames, and, thus, was born a cloud above.

But all else was gone, and one plus one equaled one.

Because I believe in everything,

I'm convinced of nothing.

United we ran, divided we crawl.

It just takes a common enemy

to make a friend.

In harmony with gravity

always bring everything down

Tear out your mother tongue-

chlorpromazine incursion the rights of the voiceless will be revealed.

Flesh is food and bone is stone.

A grey matter case for inner demons' microphones.

Fields of shells that lurk in murky waters.

A bed of nails for less traumatic slumber.

Logic's taught but brains are sweet,

we've served ours up for the demons to feed.

Projected loathsome apathy redefines reality.

Paranoid self-victimization in a cage of skin rage

and intimidating lack of control bring a once bright life to stone and ice.
