Hospital

Now we twist the knife
Claim another life
Now we cut the cord
Claim another reward

So tell me how are you?
Suggest how you'd subdue
The passionless bite of an organised killer

But you can't be blamed for the taste in your brain
This is how you're made, how you face each day
That's why we arm ourselves
That's why we arm ourselves

I tell you something terrible is coming
Innocence succumbing
To the wires twisted round its veins
One instant bullet bolt of lightning
One second redefining
All you thought you knew about pain
You will be dead before you even
Have a chance to scream and
Recognise a killer's face
And lay there bleeding from a shell
Ejected from your cell
And nevermore set foot in this place

But you can't be blamed for the taste in your brain
Welcome to my cave, this is how I face each day
That's why we arm ourselves
That's why we harm ourselves

That's why we arm ourselves
That's why we harm ourselves

Welcome to my cave
There is no escape
What madness awakes
Will crush your skull
And tear out your lungs
