Whats on my mind
That is what ive set out to find
Is it all behind a mask
Was that societies task?
So simple a question to ask
Hide behind a persona
Play my role in the game
Domesticated and tame
Filled with shame
Not looking for fame
Only meaning and purpose
In a life hollow and cold
There is nothing to hold
These words are sad and bold
The letters of my mind unfold
Nothing I behold
Just doing what ive been told
Oh how quickly ive grown old
Im trying to let go and break the mold
But society keeps pulling me back
And im lost in the flower sack
A dirty aroma clouds my mind
Searching for something I must find
Something I couldn’t have
It must be in something outside myself
Im locked away in an ideology shelf
I smoke the crazy lady
And she tells me I shouldn’t be here
It seems I have gotten near
I resemble a mad seer
And everything I fear clouds this vision
This intercision
This endless fission

Intercision is a type of fictional operation in Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy that separates an individual from their dæmon. In effect, the operation separates the person from his or her soul, while (usually) leaving the person alive.
 
I've seen it in myself, too. Sometimes you just gotta take a step back.
