Reality

I rip the rage right off of your folding face of fear Your murdermask melts making everything crystal and clear I kick down your doors of deception and deceit One thousand locks and latches can't hide you from me I chase you in your dreams like a serial stalker I whisper to your soul through iron barred windows Everywhere you look your eyes see me...but you refuse to realize I am reality I'm that smiling stranger that knows your most sinister secrets I'm that forgotten fool hitchhiking through the desert I'm that monster in your mirror that almost makes you scream I'm that one you left to die beside a suicide stream I'm that ghost of guilt with a gun and a grin I pour gas upon your memories and strike a mad match of sin I'm a word in the wind on a silent night I watch you almost die of fear and fright From me...you can never be free Still you refuse to realize I am reality I hear the cries of a coward still you shall pay for your crimes Captured and caged chained and confined White bricks on the walls transform into a million movie screens So ugly and unholy...now you see the unseen Concentrated criminality...stuck with the damned now your doing the time Viewed by x-ray eyes with x-rated minds I watch you unravel I watch you unwind Now all you can see is me Do you still refuse to realize? I am reality
