MASTER RECORDING LYRICS
FONT:
Standing in the darkness,
waiting for the light.
The smell of pure adrenaline
burning in the night.
Random blinding flashes
aiming at the stage.
Intro tape begins to roll,
igniting sonic rage.
Still they keep me,
between these hollow walls,
hoping to find in me the answers
to the test that stumped them all.
"The boy is just simply crazy,
suffering from delusions.
We honestly think that maybe
he might need an institution.
He lives in a world of fiction
and really could use some help,
we have just the place to fix him
and to save him from himself!"
Curled up in the darkness,
searching for the light.
The smell of stale sweat and shit
streaming through the night.
Random urine testing,
pills red, pink and blue.
Counseling and therapy
providing not a clue.
Still they keep me
between these hollow walls,
hoping to find in me the answers
to the test that stumped them all.
"We can't seem to find the answers,
he seemed such a clear cut case.
We cannot just let him leave here
and put all this work to waste.
Why don't we try shock treatments,
it really might do some help?
We have just the tools to fix him
and to save him from himself!"
