Brought this all to my attention
Hurts regardless of intention
Used up -- my entire soul
My own problems intervention
Back again to no retention
Loss of -- everything's control
Not feeling better anymore
Struck me down deep to the core
Paintings -- keeping it together
Hearts not warm arts got torn
Burnt inside out rusted worn
Pain stings -- will it last forever
...
In an instant life can change
And all your dreams can slip away
Wondering what happened to your pride
Because the one that you have become
Is suddenly just like everyone
Your Jekyll’s looking deep into your Hyde
The people that you used and laugh at
Taken advantage verbally spat at
The ones who just sat alone and cried
In an instant now they’re all gone here
You alienated now you all alone here
The world you knew has shriveled up and died
Welcome to the other side
...
Placing blame exonerating
Spitting fire hot debating
What I see -- and hear here isn't clear
Watch the puppeteers operating
Long time they've been contemplating
Take ahold of what you have to fear
Fighting over dinner tables
We don't go by any labels
Stories of this institution
Doesn't feel mentally stable
Heads full of fantastic fables
Worries this is all an illusion
...
In an instant life can change
And all your dreams can slip away
Wondering what happened to your pride
Because the 1 that you have become
Is suddenly just like everyone
Your Jekyll’s looking deep into your Hyde
And the people that you used to laughed at
Taken advantage verbally spat at
The ones who just sat alone and cried
In an instant now they’re all gone
You alienated now your alone
The world you knew has shriveled up and died
Welcome to the other side.
...
You do bad things you learn a lesson
Cops or crooks leaders oppressing
Under arrest innocents die
Stripping rights caught undressing
Man unkind to self expressing
Souls possession time to seek or hide
Melanin in living colors
We're all human sisters brothers
Under covers shaking like a boot
There is only us no others
Over the moon star crossed lovers
Undercovers from the hip they shoot
...
In an instant life can change
And all your dreams can slip away
Wondering what happened to your pride
Because the 1 that you have become
Is suddenly just like everyone
Your Jekyll’s looking deep into your Hyde
And the people that you used to laughed at
Taken advantage verbally spat at
The ones who just sat alone and cried
In an instant now they’re all gone
You alienated now your alone
The world you knew has shriveled up and died
Welcome to the other side
