Cut, dissected from within   Like clockwork run the cells   An unearthly silent din   A constant toll of bells   Mocking laughter evermore   No sight of a refrain   Waiting on my lonely quest   Asylum of the brain   Brain      The darkest caverns of my mind   Hold terrors so consuming   Look within and soon you'll find   Your psyche I'm subsuming   More than flesh and blood can bear   Ensnared within my brain   Eyes in fear, eyes in terror   Adversity is pain   Adversity is pain      Pain...      Within the faculty of fools   Leering warders, intimidation   Playing games at all my rules   Is feeding their frustration      The blood inside my temples pulsing   While I'm locked away   Thoughts within my head convulsing   For the time my captors pay   Stop the torment, cut me loose   Unbind me from my chains   Before my eyes a veil of mist   Encompassing and grey      Once again   Momentarily free of pain   Pain...   Pain...   Pain...      Stop the pain and rip me open   Tear out my tormentors   Release me from agony   Blinding my nerve centres   Only known emotions   Are the anger and the sadness   Overshadowed totally by   Unrevokable madness      Held inside this sterile box   My thoughts turn now to charnel   Fantasise, yet I remain   Still locked inside eternal   I'll not escape but I will wait   Patience will run true   Visitation you will see   This madness is in you
