[Verse 1]
Reality, this spiteful snake
Rearing its ugly head
Venom dripping from its grin
As it tosses yet another obstacle in our way

[Verse 2]
If given a thousand years to collect
To process, to portray
We could never encompass the voracity
Of one single day

[Verse 3]
Trapping us in its winding
Its closing malignant cycles
A tightening coil to bind us
Hold us tight in unforgiving embrace

[Verse 4]
Its all-engulfing jaws, infinite, boundless
Biting down on the dying flesh of hope
Its fiery breath leveling, dismantling
Flattening, tearing down the structures of our dreams

[Bridge]
Overcome, defeated
Terrified, shivering, mute
Reality is terror, this truth is absolute
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 5]
Reality, this spiteful snake
Shedding its smothering veil
A shroud to asphyxiate
Exterminate, eradicate
