Glad to see you're wide awake
This is the great escape
From a life that tried to mold you
And the lie it sold you
What would you do?
What wouldn't you do?
Do you try to reason why
Look yourself in the eye
What you are is all you've been
What will be is all you do now
What would you do?
What wouldn't you do?
Spill a tear as your sense of self slowly
Melts away, melts away, melt away
Until death's mirror reflects
The meaning of our lives
We wander aimless and mesmerized
As the fear starts to rise
Can you rely on the safety of a system?
Those masochistic messages run deep into your soul,
tearing through years of subconscious defences.
In a split second the foundations for a peaceful fulfilling life can be blasted away to the four corners of reality,
almost as if it were an act of a truly evil god.

Epic stuff!
there is a missing part of the song in the lyrics at the end, which is obviously a shame for this entire portal, as the below lines concludes the MEANING of the song. So comment after these, unless it will be an act of ignorance.
