[Verse 1]

Reality, this spiteful snake

Rearing its ugly head

Venom dripping from its grin

As it tosses yet another obstacle in our way

[Verse 2]

If given a thousand years to collect

To process, to portray

We could never encompass the voracity

Of one single day

[Verse 3]

Trapping us in its winding

Its closing malignant cycles

A tightening coil to bind us

Hold us tight in unforgiving embrace

[Verse 4]

Its all-engulfing jaws, infinite, boundless

Biting down on the dying flesh of hope

Its fiery breath leveling, dismantling

Flattening, tearing down the structures of our dreams

[Bridge]

Overcome, defeated

Terrified, shivering, mute

Reality is terror, this truth is absolute

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 5]

Reality, this spiteful snake

Shedding its smothering veil

A shroud to asphyxiate

Exterminate, eradicate
