From the recording Dimming Aquila: Volume 1 (Greatest ALTAiR Contributions)
After a friend unwittingly (and thankfully) interrupted me from tying my own noose, I checked myself into Fairfax Mental Institution in Washington state. Once I got out, this song just poured out of me from the sheer horror I faced in there.
Lyrics
Let me out
Even Jesus doubted his own thoughts
Once inside your brain, it stews and rots
Curse the day you thought that you knew
That the love you felt inside was true
The noose around your neck
Was good and tight
A lack of love made you
Give up the fight
Angered
Frightened
Lonely
Craving
Confused
Refused
Tortured
Forlorn
Anger
Reborn
Love to
Her sworn
Just you
Be warned
Even Jesus carried his own cross
Play by the rules and satisfy the boss
Pills and shame await you there, you'll see
Draw butterflies and mask your agony
The noose around your neck
Was good and tight
A lack of love made you
Give up the fight
Angered
Frightened
Lonely
Craving
Confused
Refused
Tortured
Forlorn
Anger
Reborn
Love to
Her sworn
Just you
Be warned
