in a madman's mind
By Shadow Fox
why must everyone question
the things that I do
why must they ask me
things that I don't know
I want to live
I want to be free
but I feel like I'm trapped
trapped inside of me
I'm stuck in my head
and it seems there's no way out
I'm lost in the dark
I scream and I shout
it seems that I cannot see
and I cannot feel
I fear the light that I search for
isn't at all real
I want to have feelings
I want salvation from my sins
but a small smile crosses my lips
and I realize its happening again
I hear the fighting
and of it I want to be free
I wait for the night
and I pretend to sleep
when all is quiet
I put on my mask
I take my blade
and I begin my task
it feels as though
there's no way out
so I go with my instincts
and I laugh as they scream and they shout
my clothes are stained
and my hands are red
but they all look so peaceful
lying in their beds
their faces are stained
their eyes wide with fear
but to me...
they all look so dear
in my head
I can still hear them scream
I want it to stop
I want to find peace
again I take my blade
and in my throat I feel a pain
I look down and I watch
as my life slowly drains
too late I realize
what I have done and I yell
too great are my sins
now I will die and burn in hell
