| Where did all this begin, my malicious tale
 | 
| So rife with loathing, despair, and revenge
 | 
| Picture this, a home could grow aware
 | 
| Would this explain why I now live in fear?
 | 
| Sometimes the razor’s dull and doesn’t cut enough
 | 
| Sometimes it definitely cuts too much
 | 
| All of this aggression and fury inside me
 | 
| Has seeped into the bones of this old house
 | 
| Year by year, the rage was building up
 | 
| And my short fuse has turned against me now
 | 
| Sometimes the razor’s dull and doesn’t cut enough
 | 
| Sometimes it definitely cuts too much
 | 
| Sometimes the anger doesn’t always manifest
 | 
| Sometimes the anger’s like a hornet’s nest
 | 
| I don’t know how much I can take
 | 
| I simply must get out of this mad house
 | 
| Nowhere to hide, I can’t escape
 | 
| I really think it’s gunning for me now
 | 
| You can’t imagine how I ache to toss a match
 | 
| And burn the whole thing down
 | 
| I pray in time it’s blown away
 | 
| To nothing but a big hole in the ground
 | 
| Would I get an answer if these walls could talk?
 | 
| Would they explain why they now want me dead?
 | 
| Was it me? | 
| Am I a wicked man?
 | 
| Was this monster born of my own two hands?
 | 
| Some days it’s tame, doesn’t spill too much blood
 | 
| Some days it’s crazed and can never get enough
 | 
| Some days it’s still like the calm before a storm
 | 
| Some days I wish I was never born
 | 
| I don’t know how much I can take
 | 
| I simply must get out of this mad house
 | 
| Nowhere to hide, I can’t escape
 | 
| I really think it’s gunning for me now
 | 
| You can’t imagine how I ache to toss a match
 | 
| And burn the whole thing down
 | 
| I pray in time it’s blown away
 | 
| To nothing but a big hole in the ground
 | 
| It’s grown hungry, rather famished
 | 
| Smelling blood and turning savage
 | 
| Now it’s learning, forming habits
 | 
| Sentient and wreaking havoc
 | 
| It is growing, gaining traction
 | 
| Can’t give up, I must take action
 | 
| It is scheming, gaining reason
 | 
| Making plans, becoming brazen
 | 
| It is living in existence
 | 
| Cognizant without a conscience
 | 
| Shaping tactics without lenience
 | 
| Setting traps to restore balance now
 | 
| Get me out of this mad house
 | 
| I’ll die in this mad house |
