Glossy Eyes Dead Inside

Glossy eyes and dead inside 

A demon snatched my soul

He held it hostage and posted for ransome 

But the cost left a giant hole

What started as a puddle 

Became way too muddled 

And now a crater lay behind

Glossy eyes dead inside 

A demon fried my mind

He made it for profit

He created debts 

And what we have now is all that is left

Glossy eyes dead inside

No one tell a soul

The money pits dried, the benefits slide

Because the deductible has not been hit

Glossy eyes dead inside 

Take these pills they will surly help it

They will keep you quiet 

Because they claim that you’re violent 

When really you are trying to speak up

Glossy eyes dead inside 

Sign these papers and you can leave

Stop causing problems and being needy and give us time to breathe

Glossy eyes dead inside

A demon has taken my choice 

He kept me subdued and fed me bad food 

He tried to take out my voice

Glossy eyes dead inside 

I don’t remember what comes next

Because my reality has been morphed 

And not by happen stance 

Glossy eyes dead inside 

The doors are now all locked

No going outside or enjoying time 

But simply watching a wallet and a clock

I signed the papers for release 

Yet fail to exit or be appeased

Glossy eyes dead inside 

A corporate game is now my life 

Glossy eyes dead inside

An open door for opportunity 

But through those doors is a return to the same place that will have me here again and again 

Glossy eyes dead inside 

A demon has stolen my life

The demon claimed to be helping me but only caused me strife 

Glossy eyes dead inside 

Keep quiet and head down 

How dare you be disrespectful and make us look a clown

Glossy eyes dead inside

Insurance has my soul

And the doctors and politicians and billionaires 

That tore me into pieces 

Are making me pay so that I may look whole

Glossy eyes dead inside 

No one tell a soul

Glossy eyes dead inside 

A story to be written 

But in the textbooks leave a hole 

Glossy eyes dead inside 

You don’t have a choice

Glossy eyes dead inside

We will do what we have to to hide your voice

Glossy eyes dead inside 

A revolution rumbles 

And soon chaos will arise

Glossy eyes dead inside 

No one tell a soul
