Down The Rabbit Hole

[Verse 1]
I guess you could say I had a bad year
Scrubbing suicide notes off the mirror to get the glass clear
Down to my last beer, haunted by the ghost of past fears
You can tell by the thoughts I scribble that we’re all a little mad here
(“He’s mad”) And there’s a reason why this man’s insane
A massive pain led to a drastic change that he can’t explain
Took some acid, traveled to the astral plane
Chasing after the other half of my damaged brain
I mean, I survived tragedy
And overcame the mind’s capacity for silent apathy
I don’t believe in dying naturally—that’s a lie
A giant fallacy, that is not my reality
That’s a George Lucas movie feature
Once I get in the booth, I’m resurrecting proof for the true believers
Inhuman creature, creeping through the ether
Lucid dreamer skinny-dipping in the waters of Fukushima
Out the depths of a murky past
Seven o’clock was the date, but I’m late, yeah, I’m thirty past
Once I passed thirty, I felt washed-up like some Jersey trash
Phony authors pervert the math, holy water, dirty glass
Savage soul, lungs black as coal, smoke
Half an O and proceed to explain the half you had to know
Fast is slow, let the madness grow as I
Attempt to navigate the imagined space of this rabbit hole

[Hook]
(Down, down, down, down, down) ‘Cause things ain’t what they seem to be
(Down, down, down, down, down) At least that’s how it seem to me
I try to enjoy the scenery
But every now and then, you can hear them demons scream for me
(Down, down, down, down, down) ‘Cause nothing what it seem to be
(Down, down, down, down, down) At least that’s how it seem to me
My whole life, I’ve been trying to enjoy the scenery
But every now and then, you can hear them demons scream for me

[Verse 2]
The place with the rusty air, I come from there
Become aware of the fucking stares from the people under stairs
Such despair, finding genuine love is rare
Joneses effect, we buying stuff to just compare
Been dodging playful jabs since I was a wayward lab, my stars
Rising like they raised a flag. Here’s my back—take a stab
‘Bout to blow out my brain the way they make me mad
But it ain’t matter. Can’t fight my way out of this paper bag
I might just collapse as a corpse if I
Have to resort to this irrational taut ‘cause I’m
Trapped in a thought where every action is a subse-
-quent attempt just to get back to the source, so
I mean, I just rolled up half an ounce
Blowing out these massive clouds, smoking ‘til I’m passing out
I wanna go—tell me which road is the fastest route
I’m thinking of trading the contents of my soul for its cash amount
But that’s that prime-time funk. We got
Our eyes wide-shut—that’s how they blindside us. I mean
My life’s nuts, I argue with these monsters from
The upside-down about what’s right-side-up
And things ain’t ever been stranger
Spidey-sense tingling, signaling that we in danger
The kid’s a savior like Christ and his manger. If
Only I could figure out what to do with this anger

[Hook]
(Down, down, down, down, down) ‘Cause nothing how it seem to be
(Down, down, down, down, down) At least that’s how it seem to me
I try to enjoy the scenery
But every now and then, you can hear them demons scream for me
(Down, down, down, down, down) ‘Cause nothing what it seem to be
(Down, down, down, down, down) At least that’s how it seem to me
My whole life, been trying to enjoy the scenery
But every now and then, you can hear them demons scream for me

[Outro]
You can hear them demons scream for me
Yeah, you can hear them demons scream for me
You can hear them demons scream for me
Just listen close and you can hear them demons scream for me
Oh, you can hear them demons scream for me
Listen close, you can hear them demons scream for me
I hear them demons scream for me
Just listen close and you can hear them demons scream for me
