Altered States

All the ghosts in the graveyard all have just what they want
All they lost they recovered
Here they’re now back to haunt
All the demons in hell
Their crown’s all their pain and their cries
All their suffering’s their playground
Emptiness fills their minds
Cause no one has a thought before they die that each of us rots in
Time
We’re all animals in an altered state
You know it takes a lot to recognize you’re insane
And time tends to equate all the pointlessness in heaven we hope for
With all that we create
So all that’s left is to witness all the ways that they’ve won
All the games of existence matter not when they’re done
Floating round in the sewage is all that we’ve got after death
Call it heaven if it’s what you want, call it whatever you get
Cause no one has a thought before they die that each of us rots in
Time
Yeah no one has a thought before they die that heaven is a moment in time
We’re all animals in an altered state
You know it takes a lot to recognize you’re insane
And time tends to equate all the pointlessness in heaven we hope for
With all that we create
We’re not the same, but we’re not more
We’re spirits in a rotting world
We’ll wait again to see what’s next in line
We’re all animals in an altered state
You know it takes a lot to recognize you’re insane
And time tends to equate all the pointlessness in heaven we hope for
With all that we create
