Lyrics Quarantine - Otep

Quarantine

Alone
In a world
Of terrible softness
Vague shadows
Lazy faces
& empty bodies
Caste in the murk
Impose their will
From the haze
Strangers disguised as friends
Enemies as lovers
The
Over-enormous
Over-dramatized
Over-acted
Poorly directed
Sitcom of life
Available in
A.D.D.
on HDTV
In 3-D for the O.C.D
On every
Fucking channel
Quiet tempest
Drowning the days away
In fevered fervor
Angst
Anxiety
Love
Laughter
Lined with razors
This ladder of life
The stink
The sting
The rapid
Rabid idiocy of it all
And I
Can answer
These eternal riddles
With this solution
On my tongue
As it runs over the
Ivory skin of her
Soft, long limbs of the moon
Prophets of doom
Pulling me slowly
In the gaping maw
Theirs is an antique world
Full of dusty pearls trying
To quiet the bright midnight
But I am rising
Like a Hydra
Be everyone to everyone
All the time
Hydra
Be everyone to everyone
All the time
Hydra
Be everything to everyone
All the time
Hydra
