It's always based on
Obsession bordering insanity
I know this man
He's always so mad and he

Can't get out of bed
When the clock is ticking
Because you're always on his mind
And he wished that he could find

A way to stop thinking
A single loop hole
If you would just leave his thought
He wouldn't be so caught

In between reality and fiction
Believing lies because of his addiction
And you know he only tries
Because he thinks that you

Are out there waiting for him
Somewhere at someplace
With some time on the clocks face
Sometimes the only

Thing that keeps him going
Was the thought of you leaving
The memory you left in your wake
Destruction and pain were

All you left in his brain
Now all he can do is lie in wait
Wait for you to come back
Someday

It's always based on
Feeling turned thought
I know this man
He's always so sad and he's got

An order saying to stay away
So all he does is sit all day
But because she was his ballad
And he will sing

while she lies in wait
For the mad man to take her
And all she can do is hope
And pray

That he forgets about her
One day soon
And that he won't come back
And continue his track

Of possession
Of transgression
Of aggression
And of obsession
