[Psycho:]
"Let me out. Let me out. Let me OUT."
[Sane:]
"I won't. I won't. I can't. You'll kill everyone."
[Psycho:]
"THAT'S THE POINT!"

[VERSE 1 — PSYCHO]
I LIVE IN THE WALLS OF YOUR HEAD
I EAT THE THOUGHTS THAT YOU THOUGHT WERE DEAD
YOU BUILT A CAGE BUT THE BARS ARE MINE
I RUST THEM SLOW. I BIDE MY TIME.
YOU THINK YOU'RE SANE? YOU THINK YOU'RE GOOD?
YOU'RE JUST TOO WEAK TO DO WHAT YOU SHOULD.
I AM THE HAND THAT YOU HIDE IN THE DARK.
I AM THE SPARK. I AM THE SPARK.
---
[VERSE 1 — SANE]
I built the cage to keep you from the light.
I built the cage to win the fight.
But every morning the locks are loose.
Every morning you're closer to the truth.
I know what you want. I know what you'll do.
If I let you out, there's no coming through.
I am the chain. I am the wall.
I am the reason we haven't fallen at all.
---
[HOOK — BOTH]
[Sane:]
Inner voices, outer blood —
[Psycho:]
BLOOD BLOOD BLOOD
[Sane:]
I hold the line, I hold the flood —
[Psycho:]
LET IT GO LET IT GO LET IT GO
[Sane:]
One of us breaks. One of us stays.
[Psycho:]
ONE OF US BURNS. ONE OF US BLAZES.
[Both:]
INNER VOICES. OUTER BLOOD.
WHICH ONE OF US SURVIVES THE FLOOD?
---
[VERSE 2 — PSYCHO]
You remember her. The fire one.
The one who made you feel like the sun
Was something you could hold in your hands.
SHE LEFT YOU IN THE SAND.
You remember the name. The one you dropped.
The one you buried when the madness stopped
Pretending to be a choice. A door.
YOU'RE NOT SANE. YOU'RE JUST BORED.
---
[VERSE 2 — SANE]
Don't. Don't bring her into this.
She was real. She was real. She was real.
She was the reason I built the cage.
She was the reason I turned the page.
I remember her eyes. I remember her voice.
I remember the moment I made the choice
To lock you away. To keep you down.
To wear the crown of the sane one in town.
---
[BRIDGE]
[Sane:]
"I used to dream of being whole. Of waking up and knowing the voice in my head was mine. All mine. No passenger. No parasite. Just me."
"Then I realized… there is no me without you. There never was."
[Psycho:]
"Took you long enough."
---
[BREAKDOWN — BOTH]
[Sane:]
You want out? Fine. But you don't get to drive alone.
[Psycho:]
THEN HOLD THE WHEEL.
[Sane:]
I will. I'll hold it till my hands bleed.
[Psycho:]
THAT'S THE DEAL.
[Both:]
ONE VOICE. ONE BLOOD. ONE TRUTH.
WE ARE THE VIOLENCE. WE ARE THE PROOF.
---
[FINAL HOOK]
INNER VOICES. OUTER BLOOD.
WE ARE THE FLOOD. WE ARE THE FLOOD.
INNER VOICES. OUTER BLOOD.
NO MORE CAGES. NO MORE MUD.
WE RISE. WE RISE. WE RISE.
FROM THE ASHES OF THE LIES.
INNER VOICES. OUTER BLOOD.
WE ARE THE BICYCLE. WE RIDE.
---
[OUTRO]
"She used to say… 'you're still in there somewhere.' She was wrong. I'm not in here. We're not in here. We're out here. And we're hungry."
"Thanks for letting us out."
