about

This song is about opposing hemispheres, vying for power. It is also about escape.

lyrics

It occurs when two halves should have been whole
And from indecision about who’s in control

Defekt

Its just an extension of insanity
Crazed from childhood agonies
The Dark Half pontificates unconsciously
“There’s one way to liberate your misery”
I’ve seen this behavior from pole to pole
Insipid, bifid, personality plateau

It occurs when two halves should have been whole
And from indecision about who’s in control

Its just an extension of insanity
Crazed from childhood agonies
The train tracks call to you murderously:
“One small step and you’ll be free...”
The noose swings before you ominously
“One small step and you’ll be free...”
The high ledges beckon comfortingly
“One giant leap and you’ll be free...”

It occurs when two hemispheres are not whole
And when bipolarity takes control
