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
