In the Asylum - Saint Vitus

They never saw

The indications

They never saw

Her eyes go vacant

And now she lives

On medication

She’s got a lifetime

Reservation

She’s hooked up

To a machine

So they can watch

Her sick brain scream

Electro-shock

Therapy

Is all she needs

To keep her happy

There’s no way out

Once you’re in

There’s no way out

The catacombs within her

Bleak and dreary mind

Altered just for research

She’s lost all track of time

She lives in unreality

Knows not even her name

The world around her changes

But her cries still sound the same

Insanity

Is contagious

I speak

From experience

They never saw

The indications

They never saw

My eyes go vacant

There’s no way out

Once you’re in

There’s no way out

Of the asylum
