REDROT: Blackout

lyrics: WASTE!!! DRUGGED SENSELESS!!! LEFT HELPLESS!!! F*KKED FACELESS!!! DEAD!!! DEAD INSIDE!!! WASTE!!!

meaning: perhaps "mental health professionals" should focus on our stabilizing our strengths instead of focusing on drowning our hearts, thoughts, dreams, and emotions with unnesseccary and unnatural drowning of the negative symptomology...

REDROT: Waste

REDROT: Open Gate II

REDROT: Black Mirror

NOT INSANE, I'M INSIDE YOU... NOT INSANE: SKIZOPHRENIK...

[yep, paranoia = fear, and if i learned anything from COIL at all, it is that "the only thing to fear is fear itself. i've been working on self-improvement, and self-empowerment for some time now. catharsis is the only real sound to me. how does catharsis as a lifestyle sound? *a-hem...* how many medications do u take daily? i only take two now. Doktor Approved :)]


REDROT: Skizophrenik II

REDROT:::pROGRAM aBORT:::Reality:Abuse:::

REDROT ::: ryan oppermann ... paranoid ??? yes . Par for the course . honest ??? yes . Like any proper information overload unit would be . The flesh is there ... throbbing beneath the womb of filth that is the Detroit underground ... for far too long . Sometimes it wants to stomp all over your dancefloor ... sometimes it wants to stump your brain ... merely a product and a reflection of negativity ??? a product of my ongoing abuse as a struggling musician . I also happen to have paranoid schizophrenia . It means that I already carry much of my own pain and guilt . it manifests itself as your voice in my head endlessly insulting every single thing I do . Do you know that kind of misery ??? a reflection ...
