lyrics

How can I dump my heart and soul into your fertile nest?
When I don’t have the peace of mind to liberate myself
I’m tortured by my own thirst in these pleasures that I seek
Blinding shadows guard the winding path toward that elusive peak
Well, I’m ripped up by the hound dog primate shadow puppet scourge
That walks me down this barren aisle of hedonistic turds
Well up and down this corridor there’s a cosmic guide that squawks
A gibberish tune that unapologetically dumbfound my thoughts
Just singing…
Anguished Reins wound none too tight
I haven’t got the strength to quell this blight
Anguished Reins wound none too tight
I haven’t got the strength to quell this blight

If only I could see with lust over my eyes
Oh, baby
Oh, darling
If only I could breathe with chains around my mind
Oh, baby
Oh, darling
Watch out

Inebriate and desecrate every pinch of joy
Oh, I’m cracked out on a substance so insidious and coy
The sinew of my mind can’t bear enough weight
And the tendons of my will seem to falter and break
I’m tired of the weakness that keeps pushing me around
Hijacked by my own defective, mislead pleasure seeking hound
Just singing…
Anguished Reins wound none too tight
I haven’t got the strength to quell this blight
Anguished Reins wound none too tight
I haven’t got the strength to quell this blight

If only I could see with lust over my eyes
Oh, baby
Oh, darling
If only I could breathe with chains around my mind
Oh, baby
Oh, darling
Watch out

How can I lift my soul beyond these Anguished Reins?
Resist dogged desires, only tire me

Anguished Reins wound none too tight
I haven’t got the strength to quell this blight
Anguished Reins wound none too tight
I haven’t got the strength to quell this blight
Anguished Reins wound none too tight
I haven’t got the strength to quell this blight
Anguished Reins wound none too tight
I haven’t got the strength to quell this blight
