Chemical Restraint (1992) lyrics

Chemical restraint is
Coming down in endless coils
The caustic liquid in his bloodstream
Keeps him obedient and loyal

Blurry forms and figures of
Faces he once knew
Surround his filthy bed
Unsteady waves keep coming through

The straps that hold his arms down
Exist only in his mind
Ears buzzing madly in the silence
Teardrops flow from blinded eyes

Things have gone too far now
His brain is scrambled like an egg
Kept him immobile by a drug
That makes him squirm and whine and beg

No one cares if they can't see
The drug that's killing you and me
Apathy make slaves of us all
It traps us in its breathing wall

The man who thinks rebellion
Comes in a bottle is a fool
It only makes him more submissive
Makes him conform to all the rules
