Social Heresy

As if it hasn't crossed your mind I know your type; the curious kind Why bother hold regard for ties that bind? Reject crude lines drawn to stay blind You're at peace, raveled up in your head But deny all you like, that desire's being bred So come with me and cast away the remnants of the thread I'll show you something better instead Get your eyes off the floor Why dwell on the losing score? Who's all the pain for? It's just not your war Why contemplate all your mistakes when you could let your spirit soar? Don't you want more? Let your gaze affix to the barren bricks to see How the candlestick likes to turn it tricks, how it seems These shadows dancing are far more fun than the tiny flame will ever be So let's enjoy some social heresy Light touches on your skin; This evening glow, once cold and dim Gives way to plays of passion, pure enlightenment's of sin Exposing something darker within There's a beast tangled up in your head And, deny all you like, that hunger's not fed How long do you hope to contain it with those breaking lines of thread? Embrace it; feast on the flesh Get your eyes off the floor Why dwell on the losing score? Who's all the pain for? It's just not your war Why contemplate all your mistakes when you could let your spirit soar? Don't you want more? Let your gaze affix to the barren bricks to see How the candlestick likes to turn it tricks, how it seems These shadows dancing are far more fun than the tiny flame will ever be So let's enjoy some social heresy
