Into Dementia

Do you know the business
Living in a constant piece of a freak show?
One man’s pain is another one’s pleasure
And with killing hands outstretched for treasure
Do you know the business?
Something I don’t understand
Is the crack in the system

Trapped in self-compassion
And mindless passing far away
Out of our sanity
Into dementia - in hollow lines a life declines
Into dementia - praising intellectual suicide
Into dementia - take a first step to your satisfaction
Into dementia - with minds closed and eyes open wide

Ever undecided we are covenant with our silence
A collective obsession like unlimited pure aggression
In our eyes
Cries of innocence won’t last
Or echo in eternity

Drowned in the night
Turned from the light
Living in bitterness
Out of our mind we’re striding
