Red Pills

A bizarre nightmare
Made me wake up in a cold sweat
As if it were something real
But, how to know what is real?

Just one more pill, just one more pill
Just one more pill, just one more pill
One more

The color of your eyes is vivid now
It seems like everything is neat this time
But it always seems, doesn't it?
So I keep an eye out for a sign

One more pill, just one more pill
One more

Boxes inside boxes, caves within caves
When the truth is not known, everything can be
Maybe the colors and the shapes too
Worth as much as the shadows we see

Red pill after red pill
Self-medication, side effects
I've been using them day after day
Trying to survive the human depths

Gimme one more pill

With a torch in hand, a skilled arsonist
Self-taught, in an endless training
And any truth seems to be flammable
I'm among those born to wake up

Red pill after red pill
Self-medication, side effects
I'm fighting to keep them from becoming black
Since I realized the human depths

Red pill after red pill
Self-medication, side effects
I've been using them day after day
Trying to survive the human depths

Red pill after red pill
The world has become a huge flame
I'm still looking for a reason to believe
That today's fire is not the same as always
