Verse 1:
It tickles as the air tingles around me.
No sound, I see darkness on me.
A resounding voice comes and greets me back.
It says I don’t think there’s anything that my mind lacks.
I see faces looking back, then I stare and see no one.
When you’re trapped in your mind, you will find your soul is so fun.
So fun that you can’t be stopped by no one.
In the front lines, command them like a shogun.
They get up and they show guns and blast them at me.
All I did to them is show love, they still attack me.
I get up and I go run, my voice is raspy.
All the flanks of soldiers run to trap me.
They shoot out many bullets and knives that stab me.
Then they drain all my blood as death will grasp me.
I’m fading into blackness, bring me to my family,
Then I wake up, now understanding the insanity.
Hook:
The insanity (x8)
Verse 2:
It tingles as I feel pins pricking my skin.
I love being here, I don’t care about my sin.
Since the end of my life it’s never been so perfect.
I feel good in this quiet, I don’t feel deserted.
Dessert was good, ma, may I have some more?
She said “Okay son, but first do your chores”
So I get down on the floor on my hands and knees
I scrub away the dust left by the breeze
And debris from when pa had to fix the ceiling.
It’s all worth it though, after all, that cake was healing.
I’m done ma, she said “Good job honey, here’s dessert”
I finished the slice, now my stomach hurts.
I heard screams from the hallway, then a loud blasting sound
I ran into the room as ma dropped to the ground.
The next sound was my last, there’s a bullet in my brain.
Everything went black, It’s how I know I’m insane.
