The Vial

You know what you hear

Instead of what is clear

Surround yourself with those who amplify your fear

Reject what's been proofed

Creating your own truth

No matter how absurd

Twisting words your mind to soothe

In denial

Drowning in decay

With every drop of poison you become more vile

Into nihil

You've been led astray

Another drop of poison filling up this vial

From left and right you grow

Extremes you surely know

With every gathering

You descend even so low

Hate is what you preach

Call it freedom of speech

Your safety guaranteed

On those who follow you just leech

In denial

Drowning in decay

With every drop of poison you become more vile

Into nihil

You've been led astray

Another drop of poison filling up this vial

So rebellious

In Contrast to a lifeless life

So righteous

Seeking meaning in resistance

Defiance!

In counterpoint you dwell

Defiance!

Reason to repell

In denial

Drowning in decay

With every drop of poison you become more vile

Into nihil

You've been led astray

Another drop of poison filling up this vial
