[Originally from the album "Hidden Treasures"]
The more of you that I inspect, the more of me I see reflect
The more I
try to read your lips, the more the mask you wear rips
But when I try to seek out your voice, my ears are overcome with noise
You
show-and-tell with greatest ease, raving impossibilities
Engaged in crime, I grasp my throat
Enraged, my mind starts to
smoke
Enforced a mental overload
Angry again
And when the story takes a twist, it folds like a contortionist
Sleight of
hand and quick exchange, the old tricks have been rearranged
Engaged in crime, I grasp my throat
Enraged, my mind starts to
smoke
Enforced a mental overload
Angry again
The searing of the sinew, my body fights for air
The ripping of the tissue,
my lungs begin to tear
Gravity's got my bones, it pulls my flesh away
As the steam finally dissipates, I make out my sweaty
face
Association that I choose, game I inevitably lose
Governed by laws set up by me, fracture its jaw to let me be
A cut-out
cardboard condo maze, filled with an insubordinate race
Irrational youths stop to stare, as music rubber-hosed the air
Engaged
in crime, I grasp my throat
Enraged, my mind starts to smoke
Enforced a mental overload
Angry again
Engaged in crime, I grasp
my throat
Enraged, my mind starts to smoke
Enforced a mental overload
Angry again
