I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness
Starving, hysterical, naked
Starving, hysterical, naked,
Starving, starving, starving, starving

My time's spent reading to flame the wound from bleeding
Preceding amputation of words, I'll give you greeting
Cut the sentence off before you begin fuckin' bleating
Preemptive, gaining knowledge, I see no need for a ceiling
Jethro, existentialist manifesto
Either bound to be found on death row, or pull the presto
And disappear, returning all bearded up on the lear
Adhered far and near as the one who moves without fear
Holding a spear to the monster on the brink of tears
Inside I hear it cheer when positivity's near
But I keep the beast's stomach quite empty,  
All the while keeping my brain locked in first gear
I find it highly ironic that making me better would mean peace
While the primal move to anger was bent on starving the beast
And while I know now the answer is not to pray east  
It's definitely past due for my soul to sit and feast

Ladies and gentlemen, contrary to my own belief, which may or may not be popular
The individual's revolution will not be televised
The only speeches you'll ever lead will be in front of the bathroom mirror
Keep on grasping for attention while the beast starves within you
Then rise, and march

My people call me home
Back to the comfort under the dome
With dreams, with drugs, with waking nightmares

My enemies perish when I catch them like Cain
Shower them with hate, set fire to the rain
Every day they live is a part of me that dies
I dance near the flame to catch pyre flies
But the beast, it fights the chains
Warm from the blood of it's thrashing pain
Blind from the drip of the wound in it's eyes
Kept starving in the dark with intentions benign
It lives in everyone, big city or rolling plain
Just panicking from lack of positivity to the brain
Call it food for the soul, the natural human prize
For being a fellow person, without the question of why
So listen close to the chains
Violent, shaking your frame
And pray they don't stop, you'll inherit the beast's name
Scholars of money and war war war war war

War, war
Starving, hysterical, naked, naked

I've seen the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness
(With dreams, with drugs, with waking nightmares)
The manic bastards with a thousand fathers
Cursed to pass hate to their daughters
(With dreams, with drugs, with waking nightmares)
Hysterical and naked to the void
While their faces remain annoyed
They present themselves as gods while they feel like frauds
The effects make them gnash their jaws
Indifferent to the cause
