Chimerical Reality

Save me from Derangement Distorted visions cloud my mind I cannot recollect Ego and intellect All sense of self fallen by the wayside Save me from destruction Sensory overload Chaos has been bestowed Save me from deception Is this reality Or is it make believe? Isolated In this moment Eyes dilated Destiny decided Fictional truth; a simulation We are born into a life we never asked to live in We are born into a life with no promise of eminence Why try, if everything dies? If tomorrow was our last day would we pray? This nightmare ends where it first began All alone Within the deepest depths of ignorance That which is not dead can eternal lie And with stranger aeons even death may die I'm breaking Everything I am Everything I want to be Feels like a lie Feels like a fever dream Chimerical reality, counterfeit scheme Betwixt the darkness and the light There is chaos misaligned Misfortune Festering within the shadow self; hidden Every direction there's calamity I cannot ascertain my being I'm breaking Save me from oblivion This world is a lie I'm breaking Everything I am Everything I want to be I'm breaking Everything I am Everything I want to be Feels like a lie
