OBLIVIOUS:
"My mind was blown to shit a long time ago. I've been on an unmedicated bad trip for multiple years. I've been addicted since then. It's the only thing that keeps the illusions away."
PARADOX:
Mild altercations
Strong irritations
Disturbed lethargy is a death wish
Loud condemnations
Dragged aggravations
Every bit of skin begins to itch
OBLIVIOUS:
Has it been three hours
Has it been three days
I've spent eternity
Dying the whole way
Face painted red by design
Sickened by my own choices but I'll realign
ABSTRACT:
Heightening in anger
Heightening in apathy
This is the chemical comedown routine
Mentally devoid
Burning energy
This is the chemical comedown routine
PARADOX:
Homemade adjustments
Poorest of judgments
Bothered by the world that surrounds
Sickened by choices
And all the voices
The loudest of sounds
OBLIVIOUS:
Has it been three hours
Has it been three days
I've spent eternity
Dying the whole way
Face painted red by design
Sickened by my own choices but I'll realign
ABSTRACT:
Heightening in anger
Heightening in apathy
This is the chemical comedown routine
Mentally devoid
Burning energy
This is the chemical comedown routine
OBLIVIOUS:
And as I try
I'm never coming back down
It's my mind
I'm not gonna be around
PARADOX:
(Oblivious he was
Oblivious he stays
These stories they display
Of his mental decay)
OBLIVIOUS:
"Fuck I've run out... I'm not gonna be able to get more for a week."

ABSTRACT:
"Hey man! Remember me? I'm the one who drove you to insanity about five years ago! Yeah, it's me, The Abstract! Oh man, you all are gonna love this guy. He's fucking hysterical. He actually thinks he's left this shithole. He still thinks I'm real!"
Now the meds are wearing off
You've brought me back into this world
Turned it all against you
Once again
This rocket's set for liftoff
Back into outer space
We're sending your mind away
Forever my friend
OBLIVIOUS:
I'm back in Hell
My favorite cell
Doomed to this existence
Now and again
I'm back to die
And let this end
I'm back in Hell
Kill me
ABSTRACT:
Your life is but a tale
Of misery and woe
The silence in your voice
Tells me you're ready to go
And now let's have some fun
Before your ultimate demise
Looks like you've been sleeping again
Now open your eyes
PARADOX:
You could never live
The way you do
You had nothing to give
And now it's killing you
OBLIVIOUS:
I'm back in Hell
My favorite cell
Doomed to this existence
Now and again
I'm back to die
And let this end
I'm back in Hell
Kill me
OBLIVIOUS:
"Get that fucking thing away from me! Get away! Fucking go, god dammit! What? Don't you see him? He's right fucking there with the robe and the...
Oh no..."
ABSTRACT:
"HAHAHA."
OBLIVIOUS:
All over again
It never ends
I could never live
The way I did
I had nothing to give
Now it's killing me
I'm back in Hell
(Kill me please)

Visions of a Past Life
12:02
|
|
||
OBLIVIOUS:
You plead for complex futures
I miss the simpler life
Years ago when this began
I never wondered why
The way that it used to be
Is never coming back
The world I've become wrapped in
Is fading out to black
ABSTRACT:
It's all fucking over now
It's time to go
You know too much to carry on
So now you will be shown
PARADOX:
Visions of a past life
Before the impending dark
You are beyond salvage
You don't know who you are
Haunted by the ghosts
Of nightmares in the past
Murdered by your mind
It's freedom at last
OBLIVIOUS:
Facing what's to come
I guess this is the way it ends
In my darkest hour
I don't remember anything
My mind is wandering
Through memory
And I'm floating
Away, can you see
ABSTRACT:
It's all fucking over now
It's time to go
You know too much to carry on
Now that you're shown
PARADOX:
Visions of a past life
Before the dark consumed
You are beyond salvage
There's nothing you can do
Haunted by the ghosts
Of nightmares in the past
Murdered by your mind
It's freedom at last
ABSTRACT:
10...9...8...
PARADOX:
The countdown begins
You're slowly approaching the edge of malevolence
ABSTRACT:
7...6...5...
PARADOX:
You will not make it out alive tonight
ABSTRACT:
4...3...
PARADOX:
There's not a damn thing you can do, do you see?
ABSTRACT:
2...1...
PARADOX:
Let them know, it is done.
ABSTRACT:
0. Speak your final words.

PARADOX:
"He was lying there, on his deathbed. The guy was frantic, he was in a panic unlike anything I've ever seen. He just kept repeating the same thing over and over."
"He just said 'I'm never coming back down.'"
OBLIVIOUS:
As I try I'm never coming back down
It's my mind, I'm not gonna be around
ABSTRACT:
MINDINRUINMINDENTOMBEDMINDUNDOINGMINDREMOVED
PARADOX:
"He just said 'I'm never coming back down.'"
OBLIVIOUS:
As I die I'm never coming back down
It's my time to pass on this unholy crown
ABSTRACT:
MINDINRUINMINDENTOMBEDMINDUNDOINGMINDREMOVED
PARADOX:
"He just said 'I'm never coming back down.'"
OBLIVIOUS:
As I fly I'm never coming back down
It was my life, in a mystery it drowns
ABSTRACT:
MINDINRUINMINDENTOMBEDMINDUNDOINGMINDREMOVED
PARADOX:
Sleep well, oblivious
This slow death has rendered you helpless
Rest now, forevermore
Gone are your days we know forlorn

Funeral for the Drone
07:34
|
|
||
PARADOX:
A coffin for Oblivious, an urn for his brain
The Abstract tore it down and little remains
The ashes of his mind reek of despair
Not a soul will recognize, not a soul will care
He will now know since he wanted to learn
How to disappear
He will now know But never will return
Not just out of fear
This soul may never rest in peace: Oblivious

AN UNMEDICATED BAD TRIP
13:13
|
|
||
PARADOX:
Side effects may include, but are not limited to: headaches, dizziness, jaundice, nosebleeds, temporary demonic possession, shitting of the brain, fainting, speaking in tongues, the illusion of being intoxicated, the illusion of being high, the illusion of being intoxicated and high at the same time, vivid hallucinations, transportation to alternate dimensions, the uncontrollable desire to fuck in space, lucid dreams, sleep tremors, out of body experiences, complete destruction of the psyche, and various symptoms of death may occur.
Side effects may become stronger over the course of time, more or less involving heavy psychedelic flashbacks, tasting colors or seeing a physical manifestation of any of the tracks. Alcohol may either further induce or temporarily disable said bad trip, but all results on the effects of alcohol while listening to this album have been inconclusive.
Side effects almost remain the same, some which have been marked inconclusive are: nosebleeds, jaundice, temporary demonic possession and the uncontrollable desire to fuck in space. More severe side effects may occur as a result of withdrawal, including sonic brain diarrhea, dimensional hallucinations, collision of the physical and astral plane, collision of the astral and spiritual plane, collision of the physical and spiritual plane, irreparable damage to the brain, skittle testicles, plans for world domination, the illusion of being able to consume more alcohol and drugs than any man on earth, bleeding out of every orifice, potential skeletonization of various parts of the body, and internal malfunctioning.
If you are experiencing any of these side effects, do not hesitate to contact your local psychotherapist because you may be in the process of completely losing your mind, or, worst case scenario, you have already completely lost your mind. If this happens to be the case, do not bother to contact anyone as you are already mentally beyond repair.
