Shadows in the playground of my mind
Oh the child in my head left behind
Rhapsody of dreams, illusion so surreal
For all of us to see
Shadows of insanity
5-1-50 laboratory mouse
I'm on parole from the crazy house
The institution has moulded my brain
And constitution tells me I'm insane
I'm insane
Shadows of insanity
I'm staring at the sun but I can't see the light
Shadows of insanity
I'm closing my eyes in my mind and I'm killing the night
I'm killing the night
They gave me my freedom when they put me inside
Tired and torn, brainwashed and dyed
I'm overrun by mental decay
What's left of my mind is slipping away
Shadows of insanity
I'm staring at the sun but I can't see the light
Shadows of insanity
I'm closing my eyes in my mind and I'm killing the night
I'm killing the night
