Prisoner of conscious

Distant from the masses 
alienated from the crowd
Disenfranchised with the norm 


Lone soul in search of something kindred
In tune with a higher spirit, On another plane
No longer entertained by the games
A spectator to all it's ills
A view from the outside much clearer
Bare witness to the crimes it commits

Judging all voluntary victims 
Willing participants swimming in shit
Forgot what the sun looked like
Accustomed to the darkness
Took a bite from the forbidden fruit 
Enjoyed the sweetest reward 
Ill gotten spoils they revel in 
Soon the bitter aftertaste of pain becomes apparent
Then they become a victim of their conscience 

The weight of sins not soon forgotten 
lay on the shoulders of the wicked
No rest for those in search of forgiveness 
Hopes of forgiveness from something higher than themselves
Looking to heaven dwelling in hell
