I set myself up for this one, chose this side
There's nothing you could do for me now, "Here He Lies"
My only wish was that I might have more of your time
‘Cause undercover tonight, my life’s on the line
I beg you to run now, begin searching your mind
You may come up short if you don’t have a torch
But my money will be on you either way to find

​

I can try to close my eyes
I can try to run and hide
But they always find and turn out the lights
I can try to save her sight
I can try to stake the night
But they always find and turn out the lights

​

If I open my mind, would you follow inside?
Granted I can't be in charge of your time
Am I making you nervous my friend?
Are your nerves at the surface again?
I'm truly in awe of your suspension, your incomprehension
I question how to guide you if you're lied to clogging the fount
Would truth be taken into account
So you could see the things that you failed to surmount
The controlling adversary patrolling my visionary
'Cause I let it slide away when I get flustered by child's play
My mind's often a closed book, but now a coffin after look
Key cells on my left eight bring hell to my front gate
He's bringing mind games that spread like migraines
If I don't find plains to harvest my pain
Ingrained, I will strain; without a drain, I'll go insane
Where my fate will reign, I bear my faith in vain

​

I can try to close my eyes
I can try to run and hide
But they always find and turn out the lights
I can try to save her sight
I can try to stake the night
But they always find and turn out the lights

​

I don't know what this is
I question the state I'm in
I don't know what this is
I question the state I'm in
I don't know what this is
I question the state I'm in
I don't know what this is

​

Listen to me before it's too late
The situation is on the brink to escalate
If I put it down, my paper and pen
Look all around, it's about to commence
So gather your wood, it's getting dire
Trouble a friend to stand in the fire
We're right beside you just watching it burn
The things that come next have me concerned
'Cause I'm already gone visiting yesterday
But what's happening now is about to change
