The more of you that I inspect
The more of me I see reflect
The more I try to read your lips
The more the mask you're wearing rips.
But when I seek out your voice
My ears are overcome with noise.
You show
And tell with greatest ease
Raving impossibilities.
[Chorus:]
Engaged in crime I grasp my throat
Enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload
Angry again, angry again, angry oh.
And when the story takes a twist
It folds like a contortionist
Sleight of hand and quick exchange
The old tricks have been rearranged.
[Chorus:]
Engaged in crime I grasp my throat
Enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload
Angry again, angry again, angry oh.
The searing of the sinew
My body fights for air
The ripping of the tissue
My lungs begin to tear.
Gravity's got my bones
It pulls my flesh away
The steam finally dissipates
I make out my sweaty face.
Association that I choose
Game I inevitably lose
Governed by laws set up by me
Fracture its jaw to let me be.
A cut-out cardboard condo maze
Filled with an insubordinate race
Irrational youths stop to stare
As music rubber hosed the air.
[Chorus: 2x]
Engaged in crime I grasp my throat
Enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload
Angry again, angry again, angry oh.
