[Lyric] Escapist (Cape Kong)

Pressing on my soul is the weight of the lie
My neighbors are my demons hiding right before my eyes
Like a rat against a snake I'm destined to fail
So why bother pushing if you can’t tip the scale

Take back my body from the scum of all the earth
Set my spirit free to wander south of all the chains and dirt
Creation is molested by inverted hearts of men
Slight of hand illusions distract us again

Strike a match against my name and cast it to the sky
The well of patience in my chest is finally running dry
Sit upon my mountain at the bottom of the pit
These sticks and stones that break my bones force my mind to split

Orchestrated madness burns inside my fucking skull
Lift me to the sky, drop me in my hole
Orchestrated madness burns inside my fucking skull
Lift me to the sky, drop me in my hole

Turn me inside out to see what I'm hiding inside
Abominations that rise up to my eyes
Scream at the sky, emptying my lungs
All I taste is blood from biting my tongue
Life works in wicked patterns, I see it all the time
What's the harm in stepping over my outline?
I take my antidote to push the black away
The only problem is it happens every day

Share my shaking shackles
Share my shaking shackles
Share my shaking shackles
Shaking, share my shaking shackles
Shaking

Shifting through the shadows of my memory
Everything I thought I knew is fraud
Eliminate my body from reality
String me up on high until I’m hanging in the face of god
String me up on high until I'm hanging in the face of god
