Cognitive dissonant mantra

 
This mind famine comes to those who have eaten well
As a simultaneously talkative and secretive mental cell,
-
Safe as milk in their glassless bottle of twisting schemes
Now made as an icon in the world of unfulfilled dreams,
-
Wildly unconventional life not seen as politically correct
Having a single voice in your song against their concept,
-
Group "think" per the demand of the thought enslavers
Individual revelation is given pills to stop "bad" behavior,
-
A sideways slogan posted on the propaganda billboard
Deconstructionist sign played into the common chords,
-
Emotional mutilations sold as their cure for the "blues"
While the psychic vampires drain lost souls they abuse,
-
Don't fall from the high pedestal atop your mind ladder
As they sling low thoughts pretending it doesn't matter.
