Slow my brain

A young man heads out into the world
Searching for whatever he can find
Confronted with the horrors of man
He hangs his head and wishes

Slow down my brain
Erase my memory

I can see why so many remain ignorant
To the horrors that beset men
And they're hiding beneath every street
Around every corner and around me

Slow down my brain
Erase my memory
Make me a new man
Turn to a blank slate

It's scary I know
To hold these truths
And out there in the world
There's still some truths we hold on to
So just dull my senses and muddle my memory
Just enough

To slow down my brain
Erase my memory
Make me a new man
Turn to a blank slate
