THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF UHSER

Exterior self has been lost in the interior world of the imagination...

cold self incision...

I think that touches on how he bears two personalities in one being.

Broken bones won't heal you...my favorite line...I think it's comparable to pinching yourself, unsure of whether you're dreaming or not.

MADNESS...dementia...

Separation of self, then projecting and locking yourself inside some fantastic region about your mind where it's dark, demented, and secluded. Killing your physical self, as depicted by the origin of this song (Edgar Allan Poe). Paranoia stabs and sinks into you. Bound to the point of no return. Suppression of REALITY.

BEWARE! THE HUMAN MIND!
