Chaos

I wasn't expecting this
 Now everything is destroyed
 Underneath us are the nothings
 Underneath them is a void
 Beyond that void is a place
 Where figments from bad dreams are banished
 Childhood nightmares all come seeking
 And adult logic nearly vanished
 Chaos
 Inside-down, upside-out (This is what they sing in concert.)
 None of this is what I wanted
 I truly asked for what I got
 Bang the gavel, it's lawlessness
 I can't unravel the knot
 Half this wretched town is starving
 While the other half are bloated
 Everybody hates the bastards in power
 But their pill is sugar coated
 I didn't need any of this
 I feel anxiety in my neck
 The consequences now apparent
 Feeding back unchecked
 Incessant blue in spiral coils
 Fingers underneath the skin
 Adrenaline is not my mistress
 But she always knows just where I've been
