Abysmalia - Cognitive Dissonance

So bring me the reasons for the thoughts that weigh me down and
subsequently expose me to the guilt of forbidden allure
Tell me the origins of the behavior that has set the tone
for the altercations with my conscious identity

For I am nothing short of human
Therefore I'm prone to indulge these tainted conceptions

Returning to portals of my psychotic inertia
How crippling was the time when the house of cards fell apart
This time it was I who burned the structures to the ground
Unveiling the travesties derivative of my flaws abound

For I am nothing short of human
Therefore I'm prone to indulge these tainted perceptions
Fighting the urge to comply

I feel like I'm drawn down to the depths of emotional weakness
And I feel I can't help myself by negating the thoughts that draw me down to the abyss
I feel like I'm run down by the chaos of redefinition
that'll sweep all the rules around to constitute a striking fear of myself

[Guitar Solo by Mika Lammassaari]

Against the absolute values I previously cherished
This mockery of justice just is nothing I can rationalize
I traded the purity of my soul at the hour of weakness
However humane, such decadence of the mind I cannot sustain

For I am nothing short of human
Therefore I'm prone to indulge these tainted conceptions

I feel like I'm drawn down to the depths of emotional weakness
And i feel I can't help myself by negating the thoughts that draw me down to the abyss
I feel like I'm run down by the chaos of redefinition
that'll sweep all the rules around to constitute a striking fear of myself

Not to mention the questionable extents to which
I'm capable of veering the choices I make
But at the end of that road lies the only thing
that cannot be redeemed by any voice of reason
