I'm too old to not see the signs
Polarization's become the word of our times
Subtlety worthless when all we do is yell
Volume prioritized over anything else
Tribalism strong we were not ready
For the isolation brought by our connectivity
Blinded by the fibers filled with light
Ignorance echoes in our chambers tight
How big is our pot when will it boil over
Avoidance normalized by every step further
Simple solutions spouted all around
But Empathy and nuance drowned by the sound
It’s coming can you feel it, it’s unsustainable
We’re still brought together by our culture wars
In the battle of ideas its all who have lost
Stand taller and speak quieter, hear the nuance

Intro
The mind inside the mind’s not mine
Escaping another wave to find
forces combine, realign
erase the days, not yours their mine
Not crazy, God made me devine
But I’m hanging from a ceiling knot made of lifelines
Chemical chemicals tell I’m fine
v1
The mind inside the mind is not mine
Conceded to find, that I’ll never really find
The time, the place that placed the days
Defaced the ways I can’t erase
The state, the pace, retraced,
Released just to satiate, no strength for another day,
another night another fight
Blackened light, decide, to shine, for once please be bright
The carrier is just filled with noise
I hear my sibilance but it’s not my voice
I look around but no one hears a thing,
So unaware of this internal screams, But no
I keep it in,
For I know the rules and societal sins
I will never be locked up again
If I stay within this my own prison
Chorus
The mind inside the mind’s not mine
escape the wave that stays
forces combine, realign
erase the days
I wouldn’t wish this on anyone but
I wish that you could hear
These voices corrupt
Under stoic veneer
v2
Normal me is not normalcy
White noise activated constantly
Internal monologue should never be
A full conversation with me and we
I can’t shut it out when it lives within
This mental parasite but I am him
Once I used to think it was the demon condemned
But I am him, I am him, (we are him).
Chorus
The mind inside the mind’s not mine
escape the wave that stays
forces combine, realign
erase the days
I wouldn’t wish this on anyone but
I wish that you could hear
These voices corrupt
Under stoic veneer
Bridge
Someone, something burst my bubble
been trying to get back ever since
chemicals will you please be kind
Outro
The mind inside the mind is not mine
Conceded to find, that I’ll never really find
The time, the place that takes the k’s
The Sallie mae’s I’ll never pay
The wasted charities
He’ll never know or hear the narrate, that self-centered reprobate
another night another fight
Blackened light, decide, to shine, for once please be bright

Entropy will sedition breach
the walls of the machine
Release, the hold of the old
I'm torn between two minds
