[Verse 1]

I'm at the end of my rope

And I'm starting to choke

The noose is tightening around my throat

It's strangling the hope

That's hiding in my soul

I argue with myself 'cause I can't take control

So, drag me through the trough

With my Vietnam cough

And take this straitjacket off

[Verse 2]

I'm powerless and down

And cracking from the stress

Constricting like a python

As it tightens round my chest

I got a fucking death wish

Fighting all my enemies

Wrecking all their fucking dreams

My hands, they bleed from the nails

Fingers make a fist

Don't tell me I'm a fatalist

Dancing round so frantically

Laughing so maniacally

I can't escape insanity

[Chorus]

Trapped in my pain

Fight to keep myself sane

Silent, I scream

Tortured by these dark dreams

[Verse 3]

So, get the fuck away from me

And hide the knives

'Cause I can't trust myself tonight

I'll straight up lie and say

Anything to make it all right

You said you'd love me till the end

Now you want the end?

It's not the end till I say so!

[Verse 4]

Take your little razor blades

Cut me up and shed the pain

Let them stitch my heart up

Black it out

Handprint on the wall

Blood holds me in thrall

Castrated by the butcher's blade

That severs all

[Chorus]

Trapped in my pain

Fight to keep myself sane

Silent, I scream

Tortured by these dark dreams

Silent, I scream

Tortured by these dark dreams

Trapped in my pain

Fight to keep myself sane

[Bridge 1]

Nails rake the skin in perfect rows

Spine shivers down from head to toe

Feeling sicker every second that pass

I vomit the pain as I puke till I gasp

My breathing quickens, heart starts to race

The lines sink deeper into my face

Peel the filth away, a sick bloody habit

Pick through the scabs as I sift through the maggots

[Bridge 2]

Tobacco stains and tar

Fingernails burnt and charred

The smell of piss and rain

The odor rots my brain

[Bridge 3]

Psychotic

Thoughts from hell arise

Do I wanna let silence die?

Kill myself to survive

Needle in my arm

And the damage is done, 'cause I'm

Psychotic

Thoughts from hell arise

Do I wanna let silence die?

Kill myself to survive

Needle in my arm

And the damage is done, and I'm

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge 4]

Psychotic

Thoughts from hell arise

Do I wanna let silence die?

Kill myself to survive

Needle in my arm

And the damage is done, 'cause I'm

Psychotic

Thoughts from hell arise

Do I wanna let silence die?

Kill myself to survive

Needle in my arm

And the damage is done tonight

[Chorus]

Trapped in my pain

Fight to keep myself sane

Silent, I scream

Tortured by these dark dreams

Silent, I scream

Tortured by these dark dreams

Trapped in my pain

Fight to keep myself sane
