Pyrexia

Day One

Pyrexia


If you could see 
through my eyes 
the things I've done 
throughout my life 
but you keep trying to be like me 
you're a cheap imitation 
get off that trip 
take your place now 
where were you on the first day? 
You know deep inside 
that you would be worthless on your own 
I am the teacher 
you learn from me 
come now, son 
this is your final lesson 

where were you on day one? 
I Never saw your face on day one 
remember where you came from? 
It is easy to forget 
were you there on day one? 
I Never saw your face on day one 
leaving you behind son 
your mask is off forever 

throughout the years 
I learned to ignore your kind more 
you seem to open up hostilities 
you opened up 
you opened up life's fucking door to hate 
it's useless trying to be like me 
fall to the possibilities 
that the single minded find 
erupt from beneath this obedience 
somehow appease that swallow, subordinate mind 
what really makes you think? 
That your face is fooling anyone of us 
what really makes you think? 
That your life, constructed on a lie 
to be a shallow, spineless waste 
spineless 
I am the teacher 
you learn from me 
come now son 
this is your final lesson 
I am your great mentor 
the reason why you breathe 
I am your only true inspiration
