Eloper's Revelations Lyrics

These years...
typified by nothing,
mystifyingly empty.

I find myself committed:
unwitting convict, ignorant of my crime,
I find myself bewildered
as fellow inmates recreate carefree.

Surely, they're mere vacuous drones...
yet it's impossible to dismiss their inane apathy.
It's vexing me to the brink -
defeating my self-control.

My outburst draws inconvenient attention,
provoking our jailers' inquisition;
restrained, violated, and humiliated
for hygienic injustice.

Yet I'll emerge victorious:
their hasty retreat left my egress now unmanned.
I'll stumble out towards liberation
while cursing our captors' torture.

Gasping in the fresh air and sun's embrace.
Freedom is now mine - I bloat with bliss.

Only to be deflated in an instant.
A swift battering and I'm airborne
then suddenly shocked to revelation...

Long have I been but a broken vessel;
an existence incoherent and shattered.

Now with a body to match...
Nothingness is better than this.
