Beneath the Violence Lyrics

Closed into self asylum
On ice that's paper thin
Wrapped up for good protection
Keep that from getting inThe shadows bring the shelter
Some refuge from the storm
Brakes on the helter skelter
To let these nerves reformRetreat out of the mad house
Stop foaming at the mouth
Hang up this strange behavior
Cut through the overgrowthWatch from a safer distance
Observe the next offense
See how the hands do murder
Then try to make some sensBlack vision
Dead body
OppressionShock system
Explosive
DepressionDisaster
Malignant

InfectionInhuman
Sadistic
RejectionThese acts of tender mercies
Work on the purest soul
They tease and trap remorseless
Till six feet in the groundShut down till all is silent
Be still this seething blood
Turn off, release the trigger
Let numbness do some good
