The Mental Matrix lyrics

When life became nothing but emptiness The soul withdrew into loneliness Darkened thoughts spreading nothingness Mankind prevailed by unconsciousness Just blindly following impure instincts Benighted spirits controlling the mental matrix In which vestiges of insane existence lay ablazed Suffering's divine remedy for our impurities For when the horizon swept away The faintest glimmer of hope into weeping infinity No escape from the constant haunting Captured by the ephemeral illusion Henceforth a dream turns to a tragedy Entire frenzy, appaled masquerade Distress, despair, silence Obsession, depression, violence Left no hope to a single wish
