the hearkening - stranger danger! lyrics

a legion of ghosts
in search of hosts are
inducing a distortion of hope
into you, cause they know
that you’re susceptible
to those childhood lies that made you feel expendable
you’re influential, but impressionable
to the cultural influence of the millennial
hollywood filth that’s formed you into you
that made me who i was before i knew the truth

left home after dark, no sign of daylight
a stranger followed me home that night
an imposter who planned to take my life
a dangerous being granting me insight

you can say we all go a little mad sometimes
but this one cut me open with a kitchen knife
lived with me, became my guide
like a surrogate parent, but a fraud in disguise
another pair of eyes on the other side
a different part of me replacing the part that died

they welcome you to the new age
with open arms, but blood on their hands
intoxicate you
with a false sense
of a sixth sense
to put your heart at ease
but lay your soul to rest
dull your senses, you’re defenseless
but you don’t call home unless you’re feeling restless
you ran away without a sense of direction
a gifted child with a lack of guidance
followed a paper trail of candy wrappers and tattered maps
i was hungry and lost, then caught in a trance
lured in by a fantasy, a handful of treats were outstretched to me
by a friendly face in a dark alley
hypnotized, abducted by apostasy
thinking knowledge would be fed to me, instead it fed off of me

outsider, outsider
insiders at your door with a psychotic endeavor
outsider, outsider
they want your spirit, but they only want it severed

we are the rejects, the weirdos, and the freaks
the strangers who no one wants to meet
we sought the secrets of the unseen
but in our own naivety
we were easily misled by our own curiosity
to a slaughter that felt like home
a safe haven that made us think we belonged
where do i belong
