lyrics

i don't struggle with addiction, i struggle with sobriety

down, down, down we go
speed depends on the angle of descent
down and down we go
terminal velocity - popular dissent

addicted to the power
addicted to control
dependent on the masses
to keep you on your throne

addicted to excess
in all its ugly forms
devolving to invertebrate
changing into filth incarnate

bloated with disease
bursting at the seams
changing
hermaphroditic, obscene

the speed of your demise is relative
to the angle of descent
terminal velocity
no chance for re-ascent
until the cycle completes

cycle completes
after defeat

strung out
ugly and obese
engorged on this endless feast
pool of mucus, infection
segmented, dementia
elongation, expansion, distention
delusional, basilical
metamorphosis
segmenting, growing
into the worm
the embodiment of disease
faceless, androgynous
mucous glands secreting
yet it still continues eating
growing larger, growing weaker
impotence is imminent
transformation nears completion
cycling back to obsoletion
on the verge of collapse
down, down, down we go
back into familiar restraints
back into the chains of bondage

wearing the leash again
but there's somebody else on the other end
now they wear the mask
now they pull the strings
