lyrics

Where are the stars to guide me?
Where are the angels?
With fury since descended
My own momentum
Staggers to nil against the tide
Divided heart and mind
Pure air and electricity
Cold fire, a sea of dark, a golden spark…

Executive dysfunction
The bitter pill gets swallowed all the way down

The rotten eggshell cracks and
Spews forth corruption
Stagnating indecision
Cold fire, a sea of dark, a golden spark…

Everything will succumb to entropy
Swaying with the tides
Back and forth again
Holding on to the end of everything
Hand outstretched towards the light

Executive dysfunction
The bitter pill gets swallowed all the way down

I have nothing left to give

I lose the path and deviate
I lose myself beneath the waves
In shadows dark I incubate
Frustrated, I procrastinate
I reach to find the force of will
To guide my hand, to see me through
But everything returns to nil
My fingers find the bitter pill…

And so I swallow it down
