Enter slowly Leave your sanity at the door You won't need it anymore If you hear yourself behind you Don't turn around Walls warp, jaws form, floorboards start to breathe Thoughts crawl, doors morph, something's underneath Red stains rearrange, every frame decays Face shifts, eyes twitch, now the mirror knows my name Cracked perception, bad reception, every second misdirected Hallway stretches, neck contorts, every exit redirected Mouths are moving, teeth are proving something here was resurrected I keep running, lungs are burning, why's the hallway still connected? Breathe in the silence Something breathed back Breathe in the silence Feel your mind go black Don't fight the feeling Don't ask where you are The door was never locked You just forgot who you are WELCOME TO MADNESS Where the broken come alive WELCOME TO MADNESS Where your nightmares learn to smile Nothing here can save you Nothing here is kind WELCOME TO MADNESS OPEN UP YOUR MIND Open it wider Wider WIDER Let it in Silver thread, crimson thread, stitched across the ceiling Pull it once, the room divides, now the walls have started peeling Step beyond the human shape, feel the architecture breathing Every face I pass has mine, every mouth repeats my screaming Door floats where the roof should be, no hinges, locks or frame I walk through and meet myself, but neither one can say a name Left eye laughs, right eye cries, both reflections look the same Then the thing behind my face leans forward and begins to speak again One, two, three, now the numbers have teeth Four, five, six, something's moving underneath Seven, eight, nine, hear it scratching through the sleep Ten, eleven, twelve, why's it counting when I breathe? Closer, closer The distance disappears Closer, closer Why am I standing here? Closer, closer The walls are getting thin Closer, closer Something wants to wear my skin WELCOME TO MADNESS WELCOME TO MADNESS WELCOME TO MADNESS OPEN UP YOUR MIND If you hear a voice And it knows your name Let it finish speaking Don't interrupt the game If you see a light Don't follow where it leads Sometimes heaven opens Just to show you what it eats You are more than what you knew That's what the voices say But every time they give you back They take another piece away WELCOME TO MADNESS Where the broken come alive WELCOME TO MADNESS Where your nightmares learn to smile Nothing here can hold you Nothing here can bind WELCOME TO MADNESS TEAR OPEN YOUR MIND Who's breathing? Who's laughing? Who's standing behind me? Why do I have my own face on the other side of the door? WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME TO MADNESS You left your sanity outside You left your name outside You left your fucking face outside NOW OPEN UP YOUR MIND Enter slowly The dark is wide enough for you Close the door behind you There's no need to go back You already came in.
