**"Mind on Fire"**
---
**[Verse 1]**
Midnight whispers, demons call,
Thoughts are racin’, climb the wall!
Good to evil, black to white,
Can’t shut down this endless fight!
**[Pre-Chorus]**
Screamin’ loud but no one hears,
Trapped inside my worst fears!
Clock is tickin’, brain won’t quit,
One more thought—I’m gonna snap!
**[Chorus]**
**Mind on fire!** (Burnin’ through my soul!)
**Won’t retire!** (Lost all control!)
I just want some peace tonight,
But the voices scream and bite!
**[Verse 2]**
24/7, never ends,
Shadows laugh and twist and bend!
Pillow’s soft but sleep’s a ghost,
Heart’s a riot—I’m so close!
**[Pre-Chorus]**
Eyes wide open, dead awake,
How much more can one man take?
Fingers clenched, I’m ridin’ high,
One last spark before I die!
**[Chorus]**
**Mind on fire!** (Burnin’ through my soul!)
**Won’t retire!** (Lost all control!)
I just want some peace tonight,
But the voices scream and bite!
**[Bridge]** *(Screaming guitar solo – chaotic, frenzied bends à la Angus Young + Ozzy madness)*
*(Lyrics spoken/shouted over solo:)*
*"Shut it off! Turn it down!*
*I’m a king lost in a clown’s town!*
*Lightning strikes but I’m still standin’—*
*One more thought… I’m expandin’!"*
**[Final Chorus]** *(Double-time, explosive!)*
**Mind on FIRE!** (Like a shotgun blast!)
**Take me HIGHER!** (’Til I crash at last!)
I just want a normal life,
But my brain’s a butcher’s knife!
**[Outro]** *(Slow, grinding riff – fades into eerie feedback, last line whispered/growled:)*
*"Turn it off… or let me go…"*
