Veil of Dementia by Ergodic Lyrics
Faining recognition practice in futility
Clung to a single day perpetual
Inheriting a new existence, that of a waking dream
As cognizance is foiled by times insidious passing
Wrinkles etched by experience becoming smoother
Dissolving tangibility gives way to raw emotion
Consciousness is shattered into fragments like glass
Transparent yet jagged
Slicing away found memories
Feeble attempts to keep whole
Immured in ones own mind
Eyes once sharp and eager
Now dulled by confusion
We all rush to grow only to falter into ages trappings
A vile disease becomes destroyer of our sanity
Clinging to the fraying remnants of this reality
Falling victim to an altering chemistry
Leaving one to wander
Alone in this internal Brueghelian horror-scape
Engulfing perception confinement as sickness erases them
Degrading synaptic plasticity
Witnessing ones own demise peering through tiny pinholes
All we've ever known seeps into the black as its surrounding
Cast away in vast ocean of white noise
Treading barely head above the din
Transfixed by the faces that appear from just below the surface
And dissolve as the current draws back into uncertainty
Caught in the rip to eventually drown
While eroding the shores of rationality
That was once only haven
Any hopes fade quickly with no solution in sight
All we hold dearly becoming unrecognized
Illness prevails against recollection as only fear shines through this veil of dementia
Bound to a single day perpetual
Engulfing perception confinement as sickness erases them
Dissolving tangibility
Gives way to raw emotion
Derealization
Sharp cerebral noise
Distortion heightening delusion
Magnifying terror involuntary lose of self
Cognizance is foiled by times insidious passing
A vile disease become destroying of a faded memory
Clung to a single day perpetual
Inheriting a new existence, that of a waking dream
As cognizance is foiled by times insidious passing
Wrinkles etched by experience becoming smoother
Dissolving tangibility gives way to raw emotion
Consciousness is shattered into fragments like glass
Transparent yet jagged
Slicing away found memories
Feeble attempts to keep whole
Immured in ones own mind
Eyes once sharp and eager
Now dulled by confusion
We all rush to grow only to falter into ages trappings
A vile disease becomes destroyer of our sanity
Clinging to the fraying remnants of this reality
Falling victim to an altering chemistry
Leaving one to wander
Alone in this internal Brueghelian horror-scape
Engulfing perception confinement as sickness erases them
Degrading synaptic plasticity
Witnessing ones own demise peering through tiny pinholes
All we've ever known seeps into the black as its surrounding
Cast away in vast ocean of white noise
Treading barely head above the din
Transfixed by the faces that appear from just below the surface
And dissolve as the current draws back into uncertainty
Caught in the rip to eventually drown
While eroding the shores of rationality
That was once only haven
Any hopes fade quickly with no solution in sight
All we hold dearly becoming unrecognized
Illness prevails against recollection as only fear shines through this veil of dementia
Bound to a single day perpetual
Engulfing perception confinement as sickness erases them
Dissolving tangibility
Gives way to raw emotion
Derealization
Sharp cerebral noise
Distortion heightening delusion
Magnifying terror involuntary lose of self
Cognizance is foiled by times insidious passing
A vile disease become destroying of a faded memory
