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
|
To save him from himself"
|
|
Curled up in the darkness
|
Searching of the light
|
The smell of sweat and shit
|
Steaming 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 treatment
|
It really might do some help
|
We have just the tools to fix him
|
To save him from himself"
