Sphinx (part 1)

Wandering through a desert
Traveling aimlessly
Blistering sun, dancing sand
Lost between mirages and reveries

Courage to Begin
Strength to Believe
Hope to carry forward

Fear and dread consume us
Hold tightly to our life
Not even a choice, no chance of escape
From the desert haze

Crazy Vagrant who dares to ramble about
On these lands Forbidden to pests like you
You must be stuck, ran out of luck
Deciphering what I have for you
Is the only way through

Squeeze you tight
Bind your mind

With my wits and power, poisonous words
Paralyzing riddle, bewitch your mind
Like violent acid, meltin' your face
Those muted by my questions
I will devour limb by limb

Now riddle me this
Decipher it quick
Or you'll be her bitch

Beast will grip you till your brain pops out
Son of enigma
Sun of the desert
Trial you will have to pass
And put your little mind to the test

A distant memory of legend of these lands
Never thought it was true
You never think these will ever happen to you
Wandering for ages in these wastelands
Need to find a way to carry forward
Demon enjoy its psycho games

Now the sphinx questions you
Who you are?
What are you?

No turning back anymore
Only way to escape

Wits and words fails me
Questions runs too deep
Keeps you always incomplete
No way out, no running away
Seeking answers is the only way

Never felt sun in flesh
Never let acid melt
Asking question we
Were not supposed to
Impossible answers
Enigmas undeciphered

Wits and words fails me
Questions runs too deep
Keeps you always incomplete
No way out, no running away
Seeking the answer is the only way

Hold your breath
Don't cross the line
Fear from death
She'll chop your mind

Just hear me out, This is my stream of thought
Carry on, chop me up Misses sphinx beyond
Limb by Limb, see if I care, no spell could ever jinx me consequently
This loony tuney, crazy wandering lost soul is me

I promise I won’t stutter anymore
Here take this acid, melt your brain, until you're leaking through the floor
You want me to Integrate this Trip? What's the matter? Does
Fear get you by your balls just a little bit?
I believe I asked a question where's your answer little bitch?
What? You can't integrate this trip, Little bitch
Don't overthink it, let your third eye give you a lift
I launched off Heroic doses of 'shrooms blacked out and
Woke up in a straight jacket locked in a tomb
My life was depicted on the wall in encrypted
With blood stained hieroglyphics, it was clear and vivid
I wonder if I got the question right or did I miss it? (B)
Did I defy the law of physics or am I just trippin?
Man

Mama I've hit my head
Maybe I've been replaced
Mama I'm not myself
Maybe I'm just insane

Demon head
Lion threat
If I can't get free so easily
Then I'll get high
Holy Mountain high
Insane like the riddle and make no sense at all
And I will put fire on this desert

Answer me this
Have you ever asked yourself Na Na Na Na
What lies behind backstage doors
Have you ever?
It makes you mad
Makes you question everything
What makes you mad
Will kill you everyday

Wits and words fails me
Questions runs too deep
No end, no oasis in sight
No way out
No runnin' away from this

You could call me
An escapist
Maybe that's the shit I am
Wait a sec, don't cut us yet
Never prepared to get chopped like that

Crank that Windows open for
Break the glasses once again
Can't make you think, I can't make you feel
Have another cigar
May I digress a little more?

Yeah yeah, are you a thinker
Or a doer?
Don't think that too much
Or this will kill ya too
