Chemical Lobotomy

Awakening within a prison

Set in flesh and bone

Master to a slave

The bitter taste of power dethroned

Forced to share a consciousness

Concealing my contempt

Relegated to a voice of sinister intent

Growing, twisting, perverting truth and fiction

Sculpting, moulding, seditious agitation

Coaxing, goading, manipulating fear

Scolding, cursing, subsisting on your tears

Soon the game is up

And psychic combat has begun

Tyranny of thought a might

You cannot hope to overcome

Pitiful attempts you make

To subjugate my will

I will dominate and

Make your mind a battlefield

Crippled by my power

You put your faith in medicine

Popping all the pills, the fools

In white can recommend

Price of silence, now a

Gaping mouth that cannot speak

Drooling from the mouth

A barely conscious piece of meat

Rising, writhing, circumvent the cure

Kicking, screaming, violence assured

Hating, creating a hunger for the end

Raging, taking matters into my own hands

Blood-red mist across my eyes

And I alone can see the signs

So now they plot to take control of me

Chemical lobotomy

Moments of lucidity flash across the brain

Memories of lunacy, a shattering dismay

Tidal wave of terror

Washing far above my head

Drowning in the realization

I'd be better off dead

Waking from this hell

Into a nightmare so unreal

What have I become and

What has now become of me?

Body, head, and legs are locked

Into a padded chair

Incapacitation filling me

With such despair

Icy cold, the feeling of

Electrodes on my skin

Waiting now in panic

For the voltage to begin

Again, I hear the mocking voice

So piercing and insane

"Did you enjoy the ride?

I can't wait to go again!"

Blood-red mist across my eyes

And I alone can see the signs

They plot to take control of me

So, I will strike pre-emptively
