My head is like a wasteland full of demons. It's hard to get out of there, and the demons make me so anxious.
lyrics
VERSE 1:
It's gonna be another day, out of the wasteland
You triumph forward, they call the case closed, they want you to hold back
You're gonna have another say, against them firsthand
When you hit them hard, the demons are exposed,
You look him in the eye, then attack.
BREAK:
Demon! I compell you!
In the name of mental freedom, I compell you
I throw poison in your eye to repel you.
CHORUS:
I say ey! Ey, ey, ey, ey, ey.
Emptiness, Emptiness, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The dreaded demon sucks out your soul, oh
Anxiousness. Sucks out your soul.
Emptiness, Emptiness
VERSE 2:
I'm trying to let out all this pain, cause I can't stand it.
Where will I find the patience, to become a freeman
If I just break the demons pact.
Inside my head it's too much space, like a wasteland
But it's full of demons, trying to deceive us
Making me paralyzed to act.
CHORUS:
I say ey! Ey, ey, ey, ey, ey.
Emptiness, Emptiness, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The dreaded demon sucks out your soul, oh
Anxiousness. Sucks out your soul.
Emptiness, Emptiness
VERSE 3 (Rap by Shiftey):
It's gonna be another day when the demon's still in your way
Another day in wasteland, another day with the pain
But rather living, but I'm keeping evils under my chin
I'm rather breathing, but my last breath is gone with the wind
Struggling with demons is a talking demon within
yet I never get so sleepy so I'm sleeping with the fishes
Reminiscing about when I was a kid
It wasn't like I was afraid, It wasn't like this, I was at peace
When I got older my intuition got stronger
I realized the demon found a way to get a hold of me
It closed me off, It closed me off of me
I could feel the breath in my neck, it was choking me
All alone, all alone
All alone, all alone
All alone I stand, man I'm going insane
I'm lying in the dust, I'm trying to pick myself up again
I feel unsedated, I'm really demotivated
I really don't see any opportunity for me to get hated
So the days gone by, I race against the time
I'm looking forward to stop running, I can't fall behind.
OUTRO:
Stuck in wasteland misery
Are you ever gonna be free?
Stuck in wasteland misery
Are you ever gonna be free?
Stuck in wasteland misery
Are you ever gonna be free?
Stuck in wasteland misery
Are you ever gonna be free?
Stuck in wasteland misery
Are you ever gonna be free?
Stuck in wasteland misery
Are you ever gonna be free?
Stuck in wasteland misery
Are you ever gonna be free?
Stuck in wasteland misery
Are you ever gonna be free?
