I'm not letting you in. I'm not telling you why. What you need from me- I can not provide. I'll tell you the story- that you need to hear. To save you from the real me- that you'll grow to fear. I'm not letting you in. I'll tell you a lie. You'll feel so heroic- that you made it inside. I try to warn you- like thorns on a bush. From the darkness inside- deep down at the roots. A poison that slowly flows through your veins- changing the structure of your functioning brain. I'm not letting you in. But you've succeeded inside. Despite all my efforts- Your heart will cry.

Welcome
I'm not letting you in. I'm not telling you why. What you need from me- I can not provide. I'll tell you the story- that you need to hear. To save you from the real me- that you'll grow to fear. I'm not letting you in. I'll tell you a lie. You'll feel so heroic- that you made it inside. I try to warn you- like thorns on a bush. From the darkness inside- deep down at the roots. A poison that slowly flows through your veins- changing the structure of your functioning brain. I'm not letting you in. But you've succeeded inside. Despite all my efforts- Your heart will cry.
