Under siege

Take a deep breath,
Here comes the burden
The air is rarefied,
The only way is to resist
The pressure is always harder than it seems to be

It feels like we’re under siege
Living in a nest of lies full of malicious ambitions
Our disease is humanity, a pestilence that can’t be cured

So just carry on is sick,
Disgusting, but that's life
Self-sabotaging thoughts
Make us our own worst enemies
And deal with it is our mission

It's distressing but self-struggle is
The fuel of our existence
Surrounded by angels and serpents
To cease the pain means to cease to be
