Conditioned: Human

POTENT Every day a new me Every day a new skin I'm me within The center of a tornado Stillness Oppressive, dull Nascent, emotion Intent, culled A vacuum filled with nothing Calm, explosive force Tides of matter sweeping Scope, such devastating force A mind filled with vitality Creation, a dozen six days Powerful, Vital, Alive LATENT A paraplegic to the world I orchestrate my world Never ending chaotic overtures Orchestrated by the world I orchestrate my world Forever ending chaotic overtures Reasons by to suit the circumstances Flickering images hurtle into oblivion Reality shifting, filling within sockets Sockets of the mind, identity defines Orchestrated by the world I think I orchestrate the world Every day a new me Every skin a new me Every day a new skin

Use the same old pain Wait for the day to end Use the same old pain Five hours to go and ten riffs to send Use the same old pain The end of creation, creating the end A slot in a rut, a hole in the head A black nemesis dark light a focal despair Gravitate round the point of eternal blackness Like an eclipsed bright, a coronal head Use the same old pain Creating an entity washed up and disbelieved Believe in one's own self And falsely you'll be healed Point blank towards a blank point Using the same old pain Again and again Surrounded by meaning, meaningless infinity Trapped within a point, too blind to see Choose to look around Feel the way over the ground Hunt for pitfalls beneath the surface Sink your feet into their cold embrace Use the same old pain The Morning Star burns Bright in the night sky Keep your head up, details pass you by Lose interest in the life you live in Higher than thought Than existence, you seem Stumble and fall through The clouds the stars gleams Oh, so close it seems

I scream until you like it I live until you die A prism of different mirrors Distill into blood-red nothing I scream until I die Polished, packaged and camouflaged Endless eloquence, rarely perceived You lay your Sheet of beliefs On me Making me Your own Your own all-seeming blindness Ignorant knowledge The empty paper calls me Write something deep, something painful Something you might want to live for; to see Someone you cannot be Live through me, live through mine Make me do the things you never could Create a world, put me in it You'll never see-- it's you that I mould Bleed me, feed me With your mortal words Fill me; kill me, with a pride that wasn't mine Thrill me; opinions that choke Vitalize the real me

The human condition Of misery and pain Contribute to a lexicon Of mortal remains Legacies of civilizations Unseen, unheard So, of what importance is Say, a new song? Fill-in-the-blanks in the spaces of time Create a reality with the power of the mind Kill a hundred people, maim a thousand more For beliefs that you're willing to die for The human condition Of misery and pain Contribute to a lexicon Of mortal remains Legacies of civilizations Unseen, unheard Nothing important, save the absurd The suffering masses, blame it on their lord For any place to put the shame-create a mental Mordor Kill all the Christians, the Muslims, the Jews Damn into eternity the complacent Hindus Creations of tact and a one-time mastery Waste all the men around, and then you'll be free The human condition Of misery and pain Contribute to a lexicon Of mortal remains Legacies of civilizations Unseen, unheard Nothing important, save the absurd Kill a hundred people, maim a thousand more For all the beliefs that you're willing to die for Waste them away, kill them all And then you'll be master, then you'll be free For all of eternity, free, bloody and free

Modes of time, dancing light Feathery wings of twilight Glances of space Deform, slight? Instant change of infinite might Every single touch, beware Stay your hand, you Know not the power Stretching beyond you Reflections in twin mirrors The instantaneous infinity. Grasping everything in a moment Blithe, denial of possibilities Invisible, unthought connections Stream forward on a single plane Look back, you see The mould Memorize it-- you cannot I have recreated it So have you The art of prediction, predilection The movement of lives, universes The power is yours, use it right The power is mine to abuse Look back, you see The mould Memorize it-- you cannot I have created it So have you Changes created in the infinite folds Look back, you see The mould Memorize it-- you cannot I have created it So have you

A negative imagery is all we have To think of and feel, to decide Desperation on an endless road Roll the stone, relive again And again and again One with yourself So hard to be Layers of hypocrisy Adapting, creating, mutating, unseeing Fitting into the assembly line Mindless thought for mindless thought Never stopping, a battle never fought Streamlined, never a thought Searching for the kick Of non-existence Of a direct link Between yourself and your self Your self and yourself… Meanings once known Naivety was the cure Once you were unseeing Once were you pure? Actions to fit consequences Reasons manufactured Cover, define your existence With a layer of rationales. Searching for the kick Of non-existence Of a direct link Between yourself and your self Your self and yourself… The eternal hunt for consciousness Sip from the fount of reason, slip… Drunk with the pleasures of life You miss the importance Passivity to the actual priorities That you know should define you A solution probably not extant Blindly stumbling, a zombie ritual On an end being in sight Decide to ignore, fight, despise Despise, decide, fly…

The gates of reality crash in Another dreamer gasps for breath Is there no place here, on earth For those of us who want to win? Some peoples' quests last forever Some has nothing to look for For some it comes so easy To open yet another door But for those who need to stumble From day to day, from door to door Isn't there a higher power To let them know there's more In this life of mine I've seen Some funny things and a dream No one told me, it would be so That dreamers have nowhere to go But even in the midst of all There is this peace inside In the toughest times of life I keep running there to hide

In humanity We live Learning of the desires, the desired, to thrill In humanity, we believe Creating images of holy life, we contrive In humanity, we are A mass of intelligence in a planet of art In humanity, we crave Of our neighbours what we seldom gave In humanity, so brave Killing the benevolent, defiling the naive INHUMANITY, WE ARE Seekers of material wealth and a wall INHUMANITY, WE ARE For humanity is in, by crook or by sin Inhumanity is in, reality is not Inhumanity is in, reality is not

Scrutinizing Telepathic Exercising My inner self Needing Feeding Myself into my self I fill myself with images I know they don't ring true I create a wall of thought Opaque, invisible, extant, not… I look into the mirror The mirror looks into me I see what I want I want what I see In the mirror of nothingness I create a reality It's so easy, it's so free Live in that world That I create, I mould Push it to the extreme Watch it grow, unfold Control every step, control every fold Deny the unpleasant, resist the bold I look into the mirror The mirror looks into me I see what I want I want what I see In the mirror of nothingness
