Something is out there. Outside the walls of this place
Hiding in the dark. Waiting. Watching, Planning plotting
You can't see it Can you feel it?
And one day when the moon is just right
It rises up in the cover of night
It comes around to find / And it comes around to feed
What you thought was real is not real
What you thought was true is not true
It only comes to me at night. Tries to get inside my head
and I sweat with terror and fear as I lie wide awake in my bed.
And outside the world goes by, while we go about our lives living the lie
And all this time we thought we knew. But what we thought was real is wrong. And the time is coming to tell that I've been right all along
Can you feel it?
It sees you
Can you feel it?
What you thought was real is not real.
What you thought was true is not true.
I've been waiting here a long ass time. Scratching at the walls. Crawling on the floor. Listening to it walk up and down the narrow hallway just outside my thin wooden door. Somehow In between the chemical haze of Haldol and Thorazine I'll find a way out / away from that thing / away from this place
How long have we been blind to the media lies the thinly disguised silly compromises that feed the fantasy in the back of our minds
And turn us into the very things we despise
We have no right to be surprised
When the times call for a hero to rise
What you thought was real is not real
What you thought was true is not true
The nightmare isn't here yet but it's coming
Nothing can keep it out
