At Ulleråker

A cursed existence doomed to the hell of chronic care in containment and restraint.
Restless days and sleepless nights, spent in dismal corridors and bleak day-rooms.
Coffee, cigarettes, oatmeal and medication.
All vestiges of your individuality washed away by time, leaving only an unfathomable cavity inside your institutionalized soul.
Join the legions of faceless ghouls in slumbering stupor.
Tormented by the demons of the mind, by the white-coated devils and their nurses.
Controlled, studied, observed. Caged for your free will.
The third eye nailed to the wall.
Gazing into the nightmarish reflections in the mirror-shards of your shattered self.
Falling backwards into the debacle of madness. Surrendering to the all-devouring flood of primordial fear.
As you disappear into the depths and your ego disintegrates, finally submitting to the collective grey non-existence, Ulleråker drags you down into the black waters of its abysmal vortex.
