I don't see things quite the same
Pictures inside my brain
Twisted visions, vague and scattered
I just move further away from life's reality
Like a painting that's scarred and tattered

Can you feel me deeply breathing in your dreams
Where I show you pictures only you and I can see?

I'm just paving the way
I'm in total control
I don't hear what you say
I am running the show

I know soon you'll awake
But before I go
I want to have a part of you to take with me

Maniacal renderings of twisted visions showing hell
Maniacal renderings of twisted visions showing hell
I just want to touch you all
And smile as I watch you fall

I just don't know right from wrong
Or where these memories belong
They are specters, shadow dancing
I tell it all black and white, I use no colors to hide
All the things that are gray and blackened

Can you feel me deeply breathing in your dreams
Where I show you pictures only you and I can see?

I'm just paving the way
I'm in total control
I don't hear what you say
I am running the show

I know soon you'll awake
But before I go
I want to have a part of you to take with me

Maniacal renderings of twisted visions showing hell
Maniacal renderings of twisted visions showing hell
I just want to touch you all
And smile as I watch you fall

Now I will soon set you free
No more will you have to see
These visions that we have offered
Now you may choose your own way
Be sure you never betray
The pictured lives we have ordered

Can you feel me deeply breathing in your dreams
Where I show you pictures only you and I can see?

I'm just paving the way
I'm in total control
I don't hear what you say
I 'm still running the show

I know soon you'll awake
But before I go
I want to have a part of you to take with me

Maniacal renderings of twisted visions showing hell
Maniacal renderings of twisted visions showing hell
I just want to touch you all
And smile as I watch you fall
