[Verse 1]
Every thought’s a rollercoaster, looping through the pain,
I’m addicted to the rush of going fully insane.
They’ll strap me to the table, pump the drugs in my veins,
But I’ll be grinning wide, ‘cause I’ve broken through the pain.
This isn’t my prison, it’s my carnival tonight,
I’m the main attraction under these flickering lights.
The screams in my head, they’re my favorite ride,
I’m diving headfirst where the lunatics hide.
[Chorus]
Crash into these padded walls,
No belts or laces allowed,
While we ride this crazy coaster tonight, underneath fluorescent light.
Straitjacket hugs, they’re the best around,
Swallow these pills and don't make a sound.
There, there, you're all better now.
Take these Grippy Socks as a souvenir,
You don't have to go home but you can't stay here.
[Verse 2]
The doctors keep whispering, “Fix what’s inside,”
But I’m just laughing cause they've already tried. (Hahahaha)
These padded walls are my rollercoaster’s track,
Every loop, every drop, there’s no turning back.
The gates are wide open, I’m running inside,
My mind’s a theme park where the broken reside.
This breakdown’s my anthem, my beautiful scar,
The asylum’s my home, and I’m chasing the stars
[Chorus]
Crash into these padded walls,
No belts or laces allowed,
While we ride this crazy coaster tonight, underneath fluorescent light.
Straitjacket hugs, they’re the best around,
Swallow these pills and don't make a sound.
There, there, you're all better now.
Take these Grippy Socks as a souvenir,
You don't have to go home but you can't stay here.
[Bridge]
Tear the gates down, let the lunatics reign!
I’m enjoying this breakdown, I’m owning the pain!
Every scar’s a ticket, half priced after dark.
An asylum mirrors canopy lake park.
No salvation, no cure, I don’t want your peace,
I’m the storm in the silence, I’m the beast they release!
This asylum’s my circus, my carnival of fun.
Once the pills wear off, it'll all be undone.
[Chorus]
Crash into these padded walls,
No belts or laces allowed,
While we ride this crazy coaster tonight, underneath fluorescent light.
Straitjacket hugs, they’re the best around,
Swallow these pills and don't make a sound.
There, there, you're all better now.
Take these Grippy Socks as a souvenir,
You don't have to go home but you can't stay here.
[Outro with haunting carnival sounds]
You don't have to go home but you can't stay here.
You don't have to go home but you can't stay here.
You don't have to go home but you can't stay here.
