Neuralgia

Looking through a veil of shattered glass 

Judging from its pieces
Closing off the world I sought to know 

Afraid of depths in hell I thought I’d burn

 

Selling love, but chasing darkened minds

 Enslaved in thoughts, with free narcissistic wiles 

Hints of fear, engrained in broken souls
In hopes to find the way to peace divine

 

Neuralgia, why do you hunt us in the guise of truth 

Neuralgia, why do you blur us in a darkened hue 

Neuralgia, why do you bind us in your mental chain 

Neuralgia, Neuralgia

 

Staring through a veil of shattered glass

Watching those on “high” delude the under-sense 

Severing flesh from bone, they drink the peoples soul 

Dividing heart from heart, until the same is numb

 

Watching sleep befall the “woken” mind

I see them one by one, in mental suicide 

Masking hate as love, in deep disguise 

Sealed with a demons kiss, ever afraid to rise

 

Neuralgia, why do you hunt us in the guise of truth 

Neuralgia, why do you blur us in a darkened hue 

Neuralgia, why do you bind us in your mental chain 

Neuralgia, Neuralgia

 

What is hope to those that know no peace?

Its a sable truth to those that sell them lies!
This shattered glass will always be a veil
Will it break by time or at the hands of you and I

 

Neuralgia, why do you hunt us in the guise of truth 

Neuralgia, why do you blur us in a darkened hue 

Neuralgia, why do you bind us in your mental chain 

Neuralgia, Neuralgia
