In The Skies
Silent Descent Lyrics

You'll breach to the side of insanity,
You will delve into madness,

Stick inside the mind a slow vanity,
You'll hold onto your self-importance,

Stuck behind a mask of inhumanity,
You'll be trapped under the guise of being emotionless,

Claim insanity.
Pretend to be crazy.

It's my profanity.
It's my own obscenity.

Stay inside yet claim your empty,
You hide within yourself while pretending to be hollow,

Feel the rain outside your entity.
Feel the external world, separate from yourself.

But you still feel,
But you still experience emotions,

There's no one else.
Despite feeling, you feel completely alone.

So open up, the memory departed,
Let go of your past memories,

Unfortunate conformity,
Tragic compliance with societal norms,

It's hard to believe,
Difficult to accept that,

Something founded so corrupt.
Something so flawed at its core.

Ironic how the figureheads would burn.
It's funny that those regarded as leaders would suffer.

We'll say,
We'll claim,

We'll stay,
We'll remain,

Open your fucking eyes.
Wake up and see the truth.

In the skies, I'll carve your name,
I'll etch your name into the heavens,

Tear it apart, just to gain control.
Rip it apart to assert dominance.

Your tears are ecstasy,
Your crying brings me pleasure,

Can you take me higher?
Can you take me to greater heights?

Check 1,2
Testing the microphone.

Now all my flaws seem to go away,
Now my imperfections appear to cease,

There's nothing anymore even though they stay.
Though they remain, they no longer affect me.

A false shield protects me from my flies,
A fabricated cover shields me from my shortcomings.

The pins and needles of the mind,
The mental discomfort,

Had a better way to hide, tie and bind it,
Found a superior way to conceal, restrict, and hold it.

With a simple mind set.
By adopting a simplistic mentality.

Now all has gone,
Now everything has disappeared,

So I look elsewhere even though I'm wrong.
So I seek elsewhere, even though it's misguided.

I stop.
I come to a halt.

I scream to the left,
I yell to the left,

I spit to the right.
I spit to the right.

This was never the way I wanted,
This was never my intended path,

All's illusion haven't earned my flight.
It's all a mirage, and I haven't earned my freedom.

A few hours later and the shield is gone,
A few hours later, and the veil of protection is lifted,

This is me and I'm in the wrong.
This is who I truly am, and I'm flawed.

But on the trip, shit I love that song,
But during my journey, I love that piece of music.

You're either flying or holding on.
You're either soaring or clinging to something.

Pull back, your heart starts to race,
Retreat, and your heartbeat accelerates,

There's nothing to it, put the gun in your face.
It's simple, aim the gun at your head.

Lean back and screw up your eyes,
Lean backwards and squint your eyes,

Everything slows as you're ready to die
Time feels sluggish as you prepare for death.

Touch on your tongue, awaiting unknown,
Savor the sensation on your tongue, awaiting the unfamiliar,

Never been so conscious and feeling alone.
Never been so aware and as lonely.

Drink Jack, there's no hope in my eyes,
Drink Jack Daniels, and despair fills my eyes,

But when I am dead I will feel so alive.
Yet, I'll feel exceptionally alive when I'm deceased.

We can feel, fly, it sends us into the skies.
We can experience sensations that propel us into the heavens.
