Welcome to her house of many bones Step into one of life's great unknowns With broken dreams and shattered heart In this carnival of freaks she is apart For the price of a ticket you can see All the horror, and agony there could ever be All we ask is to put down your stones On the left is a kingless throne No love was ever ment to stay I don't know why, it's just that way On your right is the dreams that's died Where want and reality did collide In the next room you will find All the demons that are in her mind Young man, please step back These demons will, and do attack On her arm's you'll see the scars Made with their talon like sharpened claws Please don't dottle, let's hurry along This sad little journey we don't want to prolong Up next you'll find Human monsters of every kind They all wear a clever disguise You won't even see them unless your wise Of the shadow men take no heed Off the sorrow they just feed The closets doors all are open wide Not one skeleton does she hide Please don't be scared, please don't shout The are free to dance about Last but not lest I want to show What happens when the anguish grows Tormented by years of unbridled strife In the coffin lies her pitiful life It's not her body, for she is the walking dead Heart in taters, screams echoing in her head Eyes opened wide with years of dread The light and happiness are always there mocking You'll find her over there in the corner rocking Yes she had to be restrained In the straitjacket she will remain It's for your safety, not hers For the pain she endures Is not for weak amateurs Exit on the right Single file, please don't fight Enjoy the rest of the attractions We guarantee a hundred percent satisfaction Unless in this carnival of woeful souls you are captured Then your only hope will be the rapture

Carnival of Freaks
Welcome to her house of many bones Step into one of life's great unknowns With broken dreams and shattered heart In this carnival of freaks she is apart For the price of a ticket you can see All the horror, and agony there could ever be All we ask is to put down your stones On the left is a kingless throne No love was ever ment to stay I don't know why, it's just that way On your right is the dreams that's died Where want and reality did collide In the next room you will find All the demons that are in her mind Young man, please step back These demons will, and do attack On her arm's you'll see the scars Made with their talon like sharpened claws Please don't dottle, let's hurry along This sad little journey we don't want to prolong Up next you'll find Human monsters of every kind They all wear a clever disguise You won't even see them unless your wise Of the shadow men take no heed Off the sorrow they just feed The closets doors all are open wide Not one skeleton does she hide Please don't be scared, please don't shout The are free to dance about Last but not lest I want to show What happens when the anguish grows Tormented by years of unbridled strife In the coffin lies her pitiful life It's not her body, for she is the walking dead Heart in taters, screams echoing in her head Eyes opened wide with years of dread The light and happiness are always there mocking You'll find her over there in the corner rocking Yes she had to be restrained In the straitjacket she will remain It's for your safety, not hers For the pain she endures Is not for weak amateurs Exit on the right Single file, please don't fight Enjoy the rest of the attractions We guarantee a hundred percent satisfaction Unless in this carnival of woeful souls you are captured Then your only hope will be the rapture

Sitting on the soft floor surrounded by white Hugging your self wither you want to or not The light is so very, very bright In your head your screaming stop Because they're buzzing so loud And it's the only **** sound But the voices in your head are starting to crowd In your brain they are circling and twirling around How did I end up here I don't remeber a thing There is nothing at all that is clear Did I finally snap, that one final little string Oh those ******* lights won't they stop My voices yell in unison, it's causing them pain That buzzing is gonna make me blow my top If it don't stop, the buzzing will dive them insane And if they go nutty what will happen to me **** it's been hours, or has it been minutes I'm not sure, seconds it might be I'm being pushed past my limits Still, tho I can't see a clock I can feel time ticking by Or maybe it's not I would know if I could see the sky But that is impossible so I just rock and I sway The buzzing has now become my back beat I know it's been years now, or maybe just days I can't tell this room is dripping with deceit I know when they open that door Drowned in my own drool Right there on the floor Just another crazy fool

Just Another Crazy
i am cocooned in lies i am comfortable in this home i am so warm, so sleepy, so hazy i weave more lies, more warmth, more comfort i keep away sharp truth, cruel nettles reaching for my legs i am nobody i am a false being, a myth i am confused in this spider's web i struggle, but my cocoon does not give i try so hard, but my cocoon is a straightjacket i am crying i am lost in myself i am lost outside myself i remember a name but not mine i remember a person but not myself who am i? i lie

Touch Upon My Insanity She whispers Into the white walls Touch Upon My Insanity She cries To the men and women in white coats Touch Upon My Insanity She screams At the white buckled jacket Encasing her In a never-ending repetition of Touching Upon Insanity
