The Solution

from Apostatize! by Brooks Strause

lyrics

There's nothing left for you to understand except you've got to get out of here as soon as you can. There are lies in your head and frightening creatures surround you. You'd be much better off dead than if the monsters found you. The greedy pray for ever-lasting life. Better to go when you're ripe. And there is nothing wrong with being dead and when you've had enough, cut off your head. You've been long enough to know it's right because this vessel's not for toil. No, it is meant for flight. Life will force you to see the head it's all coming down to, so now, set your soul free from the anchor it is bound to. And be assured you will know when it's time to sever your heart from your mind. And there is nothing wrong with being dead so when you've got to go cut off your head. So baby, know this grift began with your conception and that this world does not allow for true perception. You will never find rest sleeping in a bed. You will find it in a sepulchre instead so when you're ready to sleep cut off your head.
