lyrics

I feel so disconnected from all I see,
An orphan to this "brave new world",
Lock myself behind shielding doors,
Confined with only my head to hold.
Dissolved in a fear of pain,
Ignorance and I locked away,
Until a day when I feel prepared,
To accept a world I'll never be a part of.

Brave New World
Bleak, deprived, details merge, undefined.
Brave New World
In cattle drives we form the line and march towards to our end/[death].

I feel like we neglected opportunities,
Snatching hands with mouths to feed,
The frustration boils and guilt burns inside,
There was a time when I didn't feel this way.
Can't explain the disappointment,
Can't explain the root or cause.
I'm screaming at you- can't you hear me?
What we knew is gone. I've been lost for too long.

The ants crawled like disease into my home, I felt their sting as a constant drone that numbed my senses like a shell. Held down by these bold statues of authority, These statues of my own design- figments of my mind, So hard to overcome, I give in everytime. Everytime.
The world outside is different now, since the statues laid their foundation down, the birds nor landscapes make a sound, the sky polluted with a darker cloud, Like lost films and purged memories I lost my place, with no trace, I vanished then reappeared but didn't recognise the taste, of freedom now, for it was tainted by the enslaved. Every day starts and ends the same.

Brave new world,
You took away what was mine,
Replaced it with a design for an imitation life,
If we could speak then we could be freed,
And I would feel no shame.
