Open Face Surgery Lyrics - Cryptopsy

I've learned to control my thoughts 

ever since I recognized the first eavesdropper: 

those who listen in on my thoughts, 

my logic, my sanity 

I cannot let them know I don't know 

the verses, or converse in my head: 

lash out at future foes, 

banter with friends I've not yet met 

The psychoaggressive minions of 

your lord mock with laugher I can't hear, 

with hidden scowls they admonish me

Nothing's sacred, Nothing's safe: 

your filthy god is omnipresent, 

this undying nonentity that haunts 

my every waking dream 

They watch me, his mortal flock, 

they know me now by sight alone: 

my thoughts are too well concealed... 

Yet I sense more scrutiny 

Fleeting lucidity's too loud for me, 

let me be my silent self: 

our existences irreconciled 

Make them stop! I'm rotting fast... 

The answer, painful though it may be, 

is change 

Photos 

Alter my outer shell... 

The listener's may not, then, know it's me 

Open Face Surgery: short of pain 

and long on masquerade 

Ounce by ounce, lose a little weight 

nip here, tuck there... So who needs eyelids?
