An eccentric oddity
And twisted by design
A beautiful elicit sound
An aura of divine
Led by a shadow of madness
He points to his orchestration
Laced with a scream and eyes 'a gleam
For the upcoming decimation
Raise a gesture
Raise a smile
I am the conductor
I'm a composer defiled
I see the lines
I hear the torture notes
I'm in control
Of everything we wrote
Waiting for crescendos
A scaffold terminal
Once so high and soon to drop
It's smothering us all
The curtains part their way
A spotlight hits the ground
Silence thickens atmosphere
Awoken to the sound
Like a phantom in my mind
These words of wisdom speak to me
Unmasked, we see for what is true
This world will be the death of me
