It started last night when I ate a tab
She gave me top till her throat sore
I thought I was living in happy land
Then I woke up it was all gone
I sunk to the bottom the floor of the ocean
I woke up the body of Plato
He showed me Atlantean holy land
And gave me the key to mankind's hope
I wanted to say so many
Things but I never did
I wanted to say that you're the
Reason I escaped my sins
I would do pills if they
Made the pain go away
But you know they don't
Popping and snorting ain't
Nothing but band-aids
Rip it off and you got no hope
Going 85 in a 65 tryna make
My way on through the night
Red and blue lights right behind
Me make me think back
To those crucial nights in
A Miami county cell
Where I realized that I will become somebody
Not a waste of a body
Violence isn't the way (Isn't the way)
I don't want to be, so I'll drown in the lake
I tried everything
But I'm still not really free
Drown in the lake, we all drown in the lake
Wishers lost a penny
Dreamers lost everything
I don't want to be, so I'll drown in the lake
I tried everything
But I'm still not really free
Drown in the lake, we all drown in the lake
Wishers lost a penny
Dreamers lost everything
What are you trying to get across
In the lyrics to these songs?
It's always about being yourself
And not being ashamed
Of being different or thinking
Different i try
And take everyone's ideals, common morals
Flip them
Around, make people look at them differently
Question them
You're a minister in the Church of Satan
Right?
I think everybody's got a presentation
Everybody looks a certain
Way because they want to
Convey a certain image
You look a certain way
Because you want people
To listen to you in a certain way
Anything can be misinterpreted
People can look at Christ on a cross
And think, This is an image
Of murder, this is violent
This has sexual imagery in it and it just
I think it's my job as
An artist to be out there pushing people's
Buttons and making them question everything
I don't want to be, so I'll drown in the lake
I tried everything
But I'm still not really free
Drown in the lake, we all drown in the lake
Wishers lost a penny
Dreamers lost everything
I don't want to be, so I'll drown in the lake
I tried everything
But I'm still not really free
Drown in the lake, we all drown in the lake
Wishers lost a penny
Dreamers lost everything
