Please be patient while I figure out this section to be more efficient
Welcome To My Asylum
My life’s been a trip
I’m not right I see a lot
That I just can’t forget
Mountains move the afternoon
Rainbows drown the air
The leprechauns said they’re from Mars
And they’re dancing in my hair
I’m all out of reasons for the things that I’m seein’
What am I supposed to do ~ Just accept the asylum
The river quotes rhymes and the ocean killed a mime ~ say what
My life is like a zoo ~ The asylum welcomes you
I feel a little strange
I saw the moon drop a lude and howl at itself
May and June talk to spoons while April braids a bear
My neighbors ~oh~ they’re just bizarre
And the birds are playing bridge in my bedroom
I’m all out of reasons for the things that I’m hearin’
What am I supposed to do ~ Just accept the asylum
Now the ocean quotes rhymes and the river’s killin’ time
Say what ~ My life is like a zoo
The asylum welcomes you
You say I look quite confused but it’s ok now
I think it’s best to refrain ~ Welcome to my asylum
Confused or not I really like my life
Don’t misunderstand me
The mystic blue pills are really cool
But the red ones truly kick
Last night was a mess
Angels clawed at the walls and partied in my head
Elves were dancing in the nude and gave me a fat lip
Mrs. Claus gave me the bird
While Santa stabbed an elf in my bathroom
Assclown
You think you’re really special
You think you’re better than everyone else
Push your beliefs
Tryin’ to cram them up our ass ~ You know
Demanding us to agree with your world
What did you say ~ I wasn’t listening
You’re an ass ~ Leave me alone
Hey you ~ Assclown ~ leave
Don’t push your agendas on me
Just leave ~ Please
Stop tellin’ me what to believe
I need to breath
Just leave me alone to be me
You think your politics are superior
And your views on societal woes
You act all knowing on a great many issues
In spite of what you may think
Everyone’s laughing ~ They’re laughing at you
Now I’m laughing too
You’re days of politicizing your personal views
Will surely come to an end for you
We’re not ignoble or as bad as you might think
We’re just tired of your fascist ‘tude
What’s offensive ~ offensive is you
You’re just an ass ~ oh ~ Leave us alone
Hey you ~ Assclown ~ Leave
Don’t push your agendas on me
Just leave ~ Please
I’m better at just thinking free
I need to breath
I think I’ve just got to be me
Can You Feel It
You ~ You’re making me ill
Droppin’ those pills
Just to get your thrills
It’s leavin’ you hollow inside
With nowhere ~ Nowhere to hide
Can you feel it
Can you feel it
Why can’t you see
You ~ You’re just makin’ things worse
Drinkin’ your way into the ground
A hallowed ground
Can you feel it
Can you feel it
Why can’t you see
Oh you’re just freakin’ me out
The white lines ~ They turn you inside out
It’s not hard to see
You’re not where you’re meant to be
Why ~ Why can’t you see
What you’re tryin’ to do to yourself
Is so insane
Tellin’ us over and over again
You can refrain
You’re always tellin’ us
It’s under control ~ your control
Open your eyes ~ you’ve gotta realize
Open your mind ~ Look deep inside
You’re not where you’re meant to be
Look in your heart ~ We were here from the start
Yes we were ~ Now it’s time to wake up
Do you feel it
Look in your heart ~ We were here from the start
Can you feel it
Can you feel it
Can’t you see
Open your eyes ~ Look at the sky
You’re losing time
Open your mind ~ you’re losing time
What you were meant to be
Look in your heart we were here from the start
Yes we were
Here from the ~ Here from the start
Oh just stop playin’ the fool
You’re just not cool
when you stand there and drool
And stumble about
We are where we are meant to be
Right ~ Right by your side
Can you feel it
Can you feel it
Can you feel it
Can you feel it

Nobody’s Home
You don’t hear a thing ~ ‘cause you’re never listening
Always unaware ~ to all who call you friend
Waves and smiles just a trend
You don’t see the forest for the trees
Living aimlessly ~ That’s all we see
Are you living in reality ~ Tell us what you see
Your words spin like carousels
Listening ~ We wonder if you’re there
Do you register ~ Are you really there
Always a parade in the eyes of your life
When you reach for the stars you ignore all the light
An enigma shrouded in mystery surrounded by riddles and clues
You’re always lost ~ Lost at sea
BUT
You tell us you follow your visions in life
Each and every day
It’s not a surprise when we look in your eyes
The lights are on but nobody’s home
Nobody’s Home
We fail to see where you’re going with things
Your thoughts never seem to have a point to them
Decision you make just don’t jive with reality
Always ~ your plans ~ They sputter and stall
You prefer to live in your fantasy
You can’t seem to get it through your head
You can’t force a square peg through a round hole
You don’t see anything ~ ‘cause you never look
Simply unaware
Still don’t see the forrest for the trees
Waves and smiles still a trend ~ To all you call friend
Are you finished with your fantasy
Tell us what you see
Your words spin like carousels
Listening we wonder if you’re there
Do you register ~ Are you anywhere
Always a parade in the eyes of your life
When you reach for the stars you ignore all the light
An enigma shrouded in mystery surrounded by riddles and clues
You’re always lost ~ Lost at sea
BUT
You tell us you follow your visions in life
Each and every day
It’s not a surprise when we look in your eyes
The lights are on but nobody’s home
Nobody’s Home
Nobody’s Home

Desire
I’ve been with you all your life
Transcending you and everyone else
I give illusions ~ Self control
I witness what can’t be undone
All I hear you say every day
Gimmie this ~ Gimmie that
I’m the one you can’t see
My thoughts are your dreams
Dreams are desires
I won’t be kind ~ I won’t be fair
Just so you know ~ That’s how life goes
It’s the same old thing
Gimmie this ~ Gimmie that
You’re never satisfied
You want more
You want it all
You’re not above it all
That’s how it goes because
I am the reason ~ I’m what you want
I invade everybody’s life
I am the one thing you’ll always have
My name is DESIRE
I am the reason ~ I’m what you crave
Have you ever wondered why
I am the one thing you’ll always DESIRE
And I am Called
It’s no secret you’d sell your soul
To acquire all that you want
What you did can’t be undone
It’s not enough ~ You want more
What you say every day
The same sad thing
You want everything
I’m the one you can’t see
My touch is a dream
Dreams are Desires
I’m not kind ~ I’m not fair
Just so you know that’s how it’s gonna go
It’s too late ~ Too late
I’ll make you wish you never ever met me
You placate ~ Too late
You ground yourself down and wore yourself out
It’s too late ~ Too late
You’re gonna find out what it’s really all about
You stayed late ~ Too late
You never really had control
You’re still under my spell I see
Pain of greed ~ Hunger needs
It’s not what you thought it would be
That’s too bad ~ You’re not getting my sympathy
Goes to show ~ You don’t know
You never learned a thing
What you say every day
The same sad thing
You want everything
I’m the one you can’t see
My touch is a dream
Dreams are Desires
I’m not kind ~ I’m not fair
Just so you know that’s how I’m gonna roll
You fail to see ~ You deny
I’m growing stronger day by day
You never had control
I do as I like because
I am the reason ~ I’m what you want
I invade everybody’s life
I am the one thing you’ll always have
My name is DESIRE
I am the reason ~ I’m what you crave
Have you ever wondered why
I am the one thing you’ll always DESIRE
And I am Called
Nightmares
I just want to see your fear
When I tell you why
You should fear the sounds at night
The sounds that go bump in the night
Noises from within your room
They’re waiting ~ Waiting for you
I just want to see your eyes
As you look under your bed
And when the lights go out
And where they go at sunrise
I just want to feel your fear before it eats you
They’re Nightmares
No one is safe ~ Adults don’t believe in dreams
They’re Nightmares
You’re not alone ~ Grownups they used to see
They’re Nightmares
No child is safe when the lights go out
They’re Nightmares
It’s all very real
You don’t wanna’ know about
The butcher in the basement
Or the Ogre in the attic
Either way you’re gonna find out
Well you know the house on your street
Where the dare is a scare
It belongs to old lady Mirth who you never see
But you know she’s always there
She’s watching your every move
She’s watching you
They’re Nightmares
No one is safe ~ Adults don’t believe in dreams
They’re Nightmares
You’re not alone ~ Grownups they used to see
They’re Nightmares
No child is safe when the lights go out
They’re Nightmares
When the lights die your boogieman’s there
Monsters in your room ~ Sweating in fear
You scream out loud
Eyes wide ~ You ask ~ Who’s there
Do you remember the woods by your house
The sounds you know you heard
The thing in the deep dark woods
It knows when you’re alone
Watching you when you’re going home
Waiting until night comes along
When the lights die your boogieman’s there
Monsters in your room ~ Sweating in fear
You scream out loud
Eyes wide ~ You ask ~ Who’s there
Worldwide children see the same things
Shapes and shadows all night long
The creepy things crawling on their walls
Oh yes they scared you too
When the lights die your boogieman’s there
Monsters in your room ~ Sweating in fear
You scream out loud
Eyes wide ~ You ask ~ Who’s there
Looking around ~ The familiar is gone
Strangeness surrounds you
There’s no hope till dawn
Psychotic pander
Beware the man with the Hurdy Gurdy
Your little room ~ Changed from the day
It’s dark and nasty
It’s ready for play
The thing in the tree out on your lawn
It’s alive ~ It’s moving ~ It’s moving towards you
It bangs on your window ~ It wants to get through
It hears your breathing ~ It’s coming for you
When you’re alone nobody can hear you scream
The creepy clown your grandma got
It had a murderous look
So you put it deep in the closet
But now it’s looking at you
Well you see its arms reach out
You know it wants to kill you
Pulling up the sheets in fear
You try hard not to cry out
It doesn’t matter much
You hold your breath and you pray
Pray for it to go away
And see the light of day
They’re Nightmares
No one is safe ~ Adults don’t believe in dreams
They’re Nightmares
You’re not alone ~ Grownups they used to see
They’re Nightmares
No child is safe when the lights go out
They’re Nightmares
It’s all very real
It happens every time at night
You see your little night light
Giving you a hazy view
The shadows are coming for you
You really want the big light on
To keep the monsters away
You don’t want to see the things
When the lights die out
It really doesn’t matter much
You hold your breath and you pray
You pray to see the light of day
Another day
They’re Nightmares
No one is safe ~ Adults don’t believe in dreams
They’re Nightmares
You’re not alone ~ Grownups they used to see
They’re Nightmares
No child is safe when the lights go out
They’re Nightmares
When the lights die your boogieman’s there
Monsters in your room ~ Sweating in fear
You scream out loud
Eyes wide ~ You ask ~ Who’s there
The Visitors
I can almost see them
They’re not quite there
I don’t know who they are
They hound me everywhere
Why do they watch me
What do they want
The visitors who come in the night
I see them here
I see them there
They’re in my head
They’re everywhere
Look what’s become of me
On the run
Day and night
I’m losing sleep and my mind
They’re getting close ~ I hear them say
Night
We need more time before we go into the night
Flyin’ through city streets
Runnin’ fast
I’m not free
They follow me everywhere
Runnin’ down alleyways
Find a door ~ duck in there
Their voices call haunting me
Why do you follow me
What do you want
Why are you tryin’ to drive me insane
We are the night ~ We are your…..
I feel them there
Why do they follow me
What do they want from me
Forever closer ~ Step by step
Why do they bother me
Why can’t they let me be
Why do you follow me
I hear their footsteps
I feel their breath
Runnin’ hard
Through the woods
I find a path
In the trees
They followed me from my dreams
Down a path
In a row
I find a house
But it’s old
Their voices still calling me
We need more time till we go into the night
Up the stairs
Down the hall
I find a room
I lock the door
It doesn’t do any good
Back downstairs
‘round the floor
I find another
Broken door
They’ve broken every damn thing I’ve done ~ Why
Go into the night
We need more time
Till we go into the night
Go into the night
We need more time
Night
We need more time
Night
We need more time
Night
We need more time
Till we go into the night
We need more time
Night
Mindwipe
Mindwipe
What are you doing to me
Get away from the walls
You’re blinding the light
of the wondrous things that I see
Look at me ~ I’m standing alone
Watching you ~ You’re freakishly obsessive
Looking at me ~ My eyes are glassy hollows
Watching you ~ You can’t understand what you see
I know what it is to play alone
I hear shadows in the wall
I hear sparrows in the hall
Screaming obscenities at the wall
Mindwipe
Stop forcing the thorazine dreams
I can taste the lithium nights
The sparrows are calling to me
Look at me ~ I’m standing alone
Watching you ~ You’re freakishly obsessive
Looking at me ~ My eyes are glassy hollows
Watching you ~ You can’t understand what you see
I know what it is to play alone
There are shadows in the in the wall
I hear the sparrows in the hall
Screaming obscenities at the wall
Mindwipe
What are you doing to me
I just want to show you the night
And the wondrous things that I see
Immortal
I. Eleanor
II. Crimm
III. Lights In The Window
IV.Crimm
V.Eleanor (reprised)
I. Eleanor:
All her life~ A lone silhouette
Amid the Leering ~ Faceless crowd
Ignoring words ~ Fear filled hate
Even the children curse her name
The Lady Vanadder is crazy, so they say
She belongs to them ~
She belongs to the home
Confused by their words and hateful stares
She’s never done anyone harm
How many times has she heard
She’s one of them ~
She’s one with the home
Confronting her father
He tells what he has known for all these years
He’s afraid for his dear ~
His dear girl Eleanor
Oh my girl ~ Forgive me
Running out the door
To her secret place to pray
The forbidden deep dark wood
Her haven from the hate
Drawn to a light in the distance
As twilight darkens the sky
There stood the man called Crimm
Her childhood boogieman ~ RUN
II.CRIMM:
Waiting with lifeless eyes he glares
His head turns slowly with an evil wicked grin
Looking into his eyes she cries
He knows her and she knows him
He’s the demon of her dreams
His lips in a curl he calls out her name
Turning to run her mind plays the rhyme
Of the man called Crimm and his rotting old home
Screaming down the primrose path
The childhood chant plays over in her mind
Again and again echoes the rhyme
Did Crimm call her name or was it the home
The childhood chant grows louder and louder
And louder
III. Lights In The Window:
Lights in the window ~ Stay away
Crimm is on his way
You better run ~ You better hide
Don’t let him hear you cry ~
He’ll eat your soul alive
Crimm played no whim
Neat and tidy his home ~
To the mentally insane
Treated they were ~ No doubt
And buried the dead ~ The pleasantly sane
Beware this man
His kindness took a turn when he opened an urn
He let loose the original evil
It ate the souls of the insane
Dementedly turning on Crimm
Twisting his body and mind
Becoming part of the home
He’s now a slave to the home
Now he’s one with the home
Lights in the window ~
Stay away
Don’t let him hear you cry ~
He’ll eat your soul alive
IV.CRIMM
Walking the cobblestones as you’ve done before
One thought on your mind
Bring her home
You lurk in the shadows and you wait
As the light in the window breaks
The voice calls
Chorus
Stealing into the house
Her father squares up to you
Too bad for him ~ Dispatched like a toy
You open her door
You finally see Great Granddaughters eyes
You see the purest of souls
Why are you having second thoughts
Do the bidding the home demands
Bring her home
V. Eleanor
A young life ~ Picturesque
The home found its way easily
Honest heart ~ Purest soul
A pound of flesh the home needs
The lady Vanadder is crazy so they say
She’s one ~ She’s one with the home
Visions of all the hateful stares
Her family’s legacy
How many times has she heard
She talks ~ She talks to the home
Every day it’s the same
She just turns and sheds her tears
When she hears ~
Eleanor ~ Welcome Home
Every home has its secrets
Every home has its heart
Every hour is eternity
When it’s truly dark
And when the twilight rides
You see the nevermore
All the things you fear are clear
When it comes to your door
(To Be Continued)
Twilight Coming Home
See her walking fear in hand
Her light has fade away
Feel the void of timeless whys
As Twilight claims the day
She hears them screaming
She dreads the feeling
They’re always screaming
The pitch increasing
What can you say for your life
Reach the Nevermore be damned
No soul can find its way
Feel the gaze of long lost eyes
All souls just fade away
See the wall of heavy hands
A thousand waves of shade
They look right through me
as if they knew me
They’re talkin’ to me
As if to move me
What’s at stake is
more than your life
Twilight coming home
She looks, but she’s fading in pain
She cries for something that’s sane
She’s lost what feelings remain
She wants her life back right now
Feeling her world
Slowly slipping away
She’s bound to the path
Where the Eventide waits
Glazed over eyes
Watch her spiral descent
While the rotting of flesh
Marks her fate from the depths
Void of feelings
Psyche reels
Minds are screaming
Flesh has peeled
Feelings of dread fill her pain
The dark has something to say
For now Eleanor has no say
The Twilight has her soul now
See her walking in empty lands
As Twilight fades away
See her walking empty hands
Her shadow fades away
She’s reached the Nevermore she’s damned
Her Angels have lost their way
Twilight fades to black
She sees the Nevermore
The horrors that unfold
Screams forever more
A presence that is old
Older than you know
It’s coming from the home
Closer to its goal
The twisted hands of Crimm
Refuse to let her go
Witness evil grow
The Angels have gone home
Eyes peer through the void
We feast upon lost souls
Come unto the home
Eleanor come home
Eleanor come home
The rotting hands of Crimm
Still won’t let her go
See the rabbit hole
How deep you think it goes
No words can fill the gap
The shredding of a soul
A shroud of darkened mass
We’ll feast upon her soul
She sees a Silhouette
Comes the Nevermore
Eleanor Come home
Twilight fades to black
The madness that unfolds
You’ll scream forever more
In the Nevermore
A presence that is cold
Coming from the home
Her eyes have fade to black
See the rotting souls
Decaying flesh of old
Screams the Nevermore
The rabbit hole is black
Evil has this hole
There is no turning back
She’s gone into the hole
The silhouette still calls
Come unto the home
It’s late this coming of day
The screams from lost souls gone insane
The home emanates growing rage
We’ll have our pound of flesh now
Knowing her world
Slowly slipped far away
She’s bound to the home
where the evil awaits
Glazed over eyes
watched her spiral descent
While the decaying flesh
Marked her fate from the depths
No more seeing
Psyche reels
Minds are bleeding
Flesh has peeled
When the Twilight rides
You see the Nevermore
The evils that arrives
You Speak never more
All the things you fear
Knocking at your door
Don’t be so afraid
Open up your door
Open up your door
Welcome home my dear
Welcome Eleanor
Whether or not you like it
You’re home
