Lyrics

DEAN GORDON

THE SURROUNDINGS
1st verse.
Times are changing and rearranging
Swallowing our thoughts takes more then just a force
Influencing the mind happens faster then the under mind
It tortures us from time to time

2nd verse
Blinking quick to miss the flicks
Our split second curiosities spin a second consciously
And cleans the eyes for reality
But flinch and its gone within a shake of your head you knew it was wrong

3rd verse
Back to looking through a spectrumed shielded view of sanity
Its fake but at least its not reality
Crave to fear and to twist the lines
Our dangers stalk our creative minds

CHORUS
And tease the need to beat your brain
For an insight on what it?s like to go insane
And tease the need to beat your brain
For an insight on what it?s like to go insane baby

4th verse
Run your fear to stay alive
Once facing the time
You become the run that your fear can?t beat
Just because humans act on impulse that cant mean defeat

5th verse
Times rearrange and change
Whilst controlled by the brainiest of brains
Times are sick and feared by minds
Of the deranged men who steal some of the living from our lives

CHORUS

REPEAT 1ST VERSE.
