Tomcantsleep - Human Sacrifice Lyrics

As I approach the possibility of rising up
Start rolling out that carpet, red as blood to signify my love
My life is losing it's momentum as of now
But it's OK because I got this heart of gold to hold me down
I took everything I had... Put it right next to a fire pit
Pushed all my possessions towards the torches where the light was lit
Watched it burn to ashes and at first it felt amazing
Once the smoke smothered, every cloud started changing
Chocking on the oxygen is not exactly optimal
I've been on some optimistic, anything is possible
So now I rock a gas mask everywhere I go
I'm that seed inside this land fill that forced itself to grow (yo)
Now is the fruit that I ingest really infected with the pestilence?
Or is the pesticide they spray a form of modern medicine?
Might be out my gourd but that's because I ate a steak
With ammonia in the middle just to make sure it was safe
I've been on that kryptonite since Superman was dead
They say "adapt or be deceased," so I'm just trying to plan ahead

And this is what it's like when everything around you turns to quicksand
And pulls upon your ankles just to see what you can withstand
I keep my spirits HIGH like celestial
So if I need to sacrifice a skeleton, I'll let it go

I swear, I see these satellites swarming outside my bedroom window
Once they take my picture, they place it into a pile of info
While they infiltrate the privacy that I do not withhold
I just hang my hat on, "fuck it all." I guess it's mind control
Slid my soul inside this envelope and sent it out to sanctity
Thankfully, the response did not decree me to take a knee
Basically, it told me to just be my fucking self
And for once in my entire life, I was not scared of Hell
What a concept they constructed up to kill the confidence
Of any connoisseur that's contemplating it's consciousness
Put me in the ground before you box me in
So I can fertilize the future right beneath your walking limbs

And this is what it's like when everything around you turns to quicksand
And pulls upon your ankles just to see what you can withstand
I keep my spirits HIGH like celestial
So If I need to sacrifice a skeleton, I'll let it go
