~opening musical intermission~
I can't even remember how it started
A nagging voice
My normal then departed from me
Primal urges spiriting my senses away
Foggy glimpses of the boy I used to be
Preyed upon by the lowest of society
They're parasitic
Demanding your comformity
Pushing limits
Things are gunna get real ugly
Ripping through
The last shreds of my humanity
I'm not but a shadow of what I was
And I'm hellbent and headed for you
Surely you've realized
That there's no way out of this alive
Close your eyes
'Cause it's time
For you to "Go to sleep"
Climbing through your window pane
I'm creeping closer
Can you hear me?
Go on!
Mock me!
Say I'm insane!
But it's you who's caught in my game
Cat and mouse
A lovely circle!
Watch your tongue
Those words are hurtful.
Hush now
Won't you stay a while?
Join me with a..
Painted smile!~
Tragic faces
Stationed at my bedside
Warm embraces
Hollow on the inside
And their eyes betray them
Widening with fear and worry
Fuses burned down
And my vision becomes blurry
Liars always fill me with thin untrained fury
Carve this face into their darkest memories
'Cause that's just showbiz
This is a Devine Comedy
Ready!
Action!
Pray that your fast enough to flee
I'm not entirely unsympathetic
So I'll give you the count until three
Surely you've realized
That there's no way out of here alive
Close your eyes
'Cause it's time
For you to "Go to sleep"
Climbing through your window pane
I'm creeping closer
Can you hear me?
Go on!
Mock me!
Say I'm insane!
But it's you who's caught in my game
Cat and mouse
A lovely circle!
Watch your tongue
Those words are hurtful.
Hush now
Won't you stay a while?
Join me with a..
Painted smile!~
~musical intermission~
Patience is a virtue
When your working on a masterpiece
And tolerance is valued
When you're working on a living canvas
Stitch my words into tender flesh
This grin will stay forever fresh
Don't be lonely!
Don't be jealous!
Your turns coming!
How could I forget?
Still awake?
Not for long~
Climbing through your window pane
I'm creeping closer
Can you hear me?
Go on!
Mock me!
Say I'm insane!
But it's you who's caught in my game
Cat and mouse
A lovely circle!
Watch your tongue
Those words are hurtful.
Hush now
Won't you stay a while?
Join me with a..
Painted smile!~
