Undertow

Verse I Terrified I woke up in my sleep
Sick and broke, in Rockafeller's dream
404 on the Hippocratic Oath
Synthesize disease, storys gettin' old
Dealing dope from ivory towers
Drug stores shine on every corner
Vacant stares, so hard to see and...

Chorus Halogen daze, sorcerers dressed in white
Every smile hides a sharpened bite
Sign here, sign away your life
Take another pill, swallow another lie
Allopathic medicine, proxy suicide
I'm on the table, but I'm still alive.

Verse II 1st Progression The ends justify the means
Death certificates, payment schemes
Ghost factories, keep money in the banks
Legalized corruption, keeps the money safe
Black magic cartels too big to fail
Wish you well, Hey! See y'all in hell...

Verse II 2nd Progression Death wards, necromance and alibis
No cures, just viruses 'n parasites
Watching as they profit from our lost
Moms on life support, never mind the cost
With a lexicon of side effects, I write this song

Verse II 3rd Progression Matrix hums like a funeral hymn,
Killing time, can't get off the drip,
Bill the next of kin on judgment day.

Verse II 4th Progression Fabian Wolves, sheep's clothing
Masquerades, keep us holding
On to hope, but everybody knows
You can't breath in an undertow.

Verse II Final Progression Take another pill, swallow another lie
Don't let anyone out alive
Spin another reel, sell another lie
No one gets out alive
