The Medicinal Applications of Despair

This doom metal song explores the chaotic forces that can come to life when you get involved with serious work in areas such as art, religion, science and the public sphere.

I wanna die, wanna go right to hell now
The chains are in my brain there’s no hope for escape now
I’ve lost my soul, I am blind, I am drowning
The pain is all that’s real, it’s the only thing I can feel

I don’t care, don’t understand, how life has brought me here
This pain’s not who I am dissolving into fear
Gun down all the people, so we can show them he’s real
Bow down to the lord, he rules you all with his despair
