Straight Jacket

Solitary white padded walls

Chained to myself

Rocking back and forth

In my isolated corner



Shoot me up, sedate me now

Before i throw a fit

I'll hurt you, I vow

Insanity to its fullest

Pure maddness

No deluteing this ill saddness



Parnoid shot eyes

No sleep, no medication tonight

Shaking in the cold

Chills crawing up my spine

Leave the light on and ill be just fine

Clock ticking down the time

Countless hours fly by

The distant church bell rings its chime

Darkness purring through my veins

Nurse! Nurse! I need that pill

Hurry, Hurry I can feel the pain

Pounding, pounding, yes im insane

Walls closing in

Panacking wildly undnearth the skin

Fearing what hides within

Break the straight jacket

Crazy fun is about to begin

Needles rip the flesh

And blood is a silly swimming mess



Sadistic laughter fills the air

Its echoes, it screams

Drowning in its malice

I wake to realize

It was all in my mind

Laying in my comfy bed,

Another scary dream



Or did the nurse remember my meds?

and reality has already left my head

Dying in this isolated place

Dont worry, I'm still in my straight jacket

Close your eyes, your safe tonight
