Inner crisis (massive negation)

Trivia

One of the weirdest, most articulate songs I've ever written - because fuck verse-chorus structures, who the fuck needs them amirite?

Despite what may seem, the lyrics are NOT about psychology. The protagonist ain't even a person.

Lyrics

A fragile entity of inner contrast

Never able to go forward

Perfect balance of pulses in her dualistic brain

Causing instability and immobility

No steps beyond this static condition

Of internal cognitive struggle

Completely opposite decisions of equal weight

Others go forward while she's still there

Slowly getting sick and mad...

Contrasting emotions, cognitive dissonance

Neutralizing any self-confidence

Supported by all those around her

But time is running out

Time to take your own responsability

And to reorganize your own cognitive structure

Any help, any idea, any proposal

Is still better than the swamp you're stuck in

Hypersensitivity to any single pulse

Caused by a juvenile authoritarian trauma

Among the finest intelligences known in this world

Lacking a hierarchy of goals and purposes

Any attempt to change reveals itself to be a scam

Just a different side of the coin

Inner crisis raging, closer to absolute ruin

Break traditions and get out of this hell

Some pulse needs more importance than the other ones around

To give direction and some decision

The weight of certain pulses can't be handled anymore

In opposition to what truly matters

These are the core values of the proposal that's brought

To stop this suicidal, neurotic path

Nothing can change without a radical twist

That will constitute a radically new attitude

Reshaping personality is not an easy business

But it still needs to start somewhere

Trample on those inner pulses and on self-destruction

Giving birth to a wholly new scheme

Unfortunately it's harder than you'd ever imagine

Self-defense mechanisms start to flow

The inner pulses are resisting, protecting themselves

Counter-reaction of massive negation, triggered

MASSIVE NEGATION (x2)

LIES, EXCUSES, SCAMS, DECEITS

FEAR, PREJUDICE, INTELLECTUAL DISHONESTY

HATRED, CONFLICT, ENVY, PRIDE

POWER STRUGGLE, HIDDEN INTERESTS

MIND INFECTED, NOT ENOUGH FORCE

TO TURN THE TABLE IN ITS OWN FAVOUR

EASY LIES ARE SHINING THROUGH

YET STILL LEADING TO MASSIVE NEGATION

The lower pulses have undoubtedly won

Their force is just completely unbearable

Nothing can be done to save this lost soul

Self-condemned to her own tragic doom

Sink some more, DIE!
