Instincts
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We hear what we can't see
we suck in air but we can't breathe
a creation of our own illusion
a reflective reality
You feel it, so do I
a stirring so deep inside
of vengeance and retribution
Stare into death's eye
You better crawl into your lonely corner
Everything, all the things you have done
ignorance is your way, but you are so wrong
The instincts of mankind
hate, fear and love you feel
You hear them screaming deep inside
Bow down, forced into submission
Just let it out, let it unfold
your contradictions, corroding the core of your soul
You think you can get away
bt there's no chance, you are the prey
You can run but you cannot hide
life is cancer, feasting inside
All around, lifeless eyes judging you
ssearching for reason and a way to get through
You are starving for absolution
your prayers remain unheard
