Casimir, Shadow Blended With Light Lyrics

I've tried it their way, time and again

But my intelligence is wasted if I follow a doctrine

As close-minded and backward as to insult my sanity

Your dying faith whose existence is more profanity

Than anything it preaches against, the peddlers

Of its faulty philosophies hardly settlers

Of the same vileness in their own lives! Oh, it's fear

That they sell, hell, indoctrination leers

Its ugly face in the form of dissociative convulsions

In me, they tried to fix my avoidant compulsions!

Now I fear every minute I spend between panic attacks!

Man, I'm so sick from what I've had to see!

Telling me what I've experienced is false

Observations into the machinations of its thralls!

I know the demon you claim I follow

He's merely my own twisted-up Shadow!

Imma catch hell for that, no worse than the flames already in my mind!

You get me yet? Demons we conquer come from within

The Dark inside leads to what they call "sin"!

Slaves to an old idea, perpetuated by the faithless

Who try so desperately to feel the faceless

Divine's warmth; in that fervor they oppress

People like me, striking with their "good book", oh, lest

We expose the real Truth: they're the ones who blind!

I lay awake in my bed, the painkillers take hold of my head

Dark Fiend stirs down below!

Primal passions be what they are, in all realities:

Patriarchy is the cause for our guilty mentalities!

Self-indulgence ain't always colored corruption

Not until it leads to your life or others' disruption!

Don't matter how bright a light may seem to shine

It will always cast a shadow, and you'll be blind!
