Put the drawbridge up!

The enemy ransacked what we had just rebuilt!

Now the garden lies in serene symmetry and severe color theory

Roots slowly poisoning

Through strategic seeds planted inside. We’re much safer self-preserved.

Let the Dead Sea rise

No, the watch dogs aren’t robots

They can’t defend against their lures

Doors that weld shut behind you and books that fly like birds

Crushed by backpacks filled with ammo, luggage carts distracted the defense

And the troops sneak in undetected, charades begin, start the pretense

Obsessive thought in royal chambers invites Trojan warriors in

Little exceptions seem so harmless, little victories, little wins

And now why has the plan failed? We sit here aimless once again

With all units deployed fully, how is it we let him in?

All the corporals agreed: zero-tolerance enforced!

But as cold as doorknobs were I somehow still opened the doors

Each battle lost is a mile gained on the terminal timeline

We all fear the last few inches but they’re so far out, we’re blind

Each battle lost...

A dysfunctional team, we are, no one following the rules

Yes I’ll do my best to protect you but your disobedience intrudes

Skeletons escape the flesh

like ants through tightly clenched fists

This time impeach the tyrant

What a contradictory statement, suicidal self-preservationist

Although logic understands, prison chambers still exist

Chambers East and West conspiring, neighbors North and South unite

With the four working against me I’m powerless and losing sight!

Each battle lost is a mile gained on the terminal timeline

We all fear the last few inches but they’re so far out, we’re blind

This is a forced entry

This is algometry

This is panophobic

Immunity gets sick

This is a forced entry

This is algometry

This is panophobic

Taken down, brick by brick

This is a forced entry

This is algometry

This is panophobic

This is the last conflict

Each battle lost...

Each battle lost...
