These Words Scream

The edge of sanity

You always wear
Your pain to bed

Cotton candled delusions
That stick
You can't wash them away
No the madness stays
and you enjoy it

Same as a midnight showing
Of a horror flick
You glory in it
The darkness of it all

It's like riding a carnival ride
Until it makes you sick
Or looking into a fun house mirror
Until all you see is the lies
The lethal kind

That make you start to believe
Born again
As you speak in a tongue
No one understands

You're all in insane
Placed a high roller bet
When you're holding jokers
That wink at you

And you know their language behind your back
When the world is no longer friendly

Which brightly colored pill
Will save you?
