Madman's Asylum

I'm not really sure how I came up with this.. I was just messing around on the guitar and this is what came out. I find it's when I'm not trying to write anything in particular that the best things are written and (even though they really make no sense) I enjoy playing/singing them. It's almost as if I've written emotions rather than words. Like, when I'm singing it, I'm feeling everything I felt when I wrote the song. Yeah, I think that's it.

The ghosts -beneath / The bed in his room.

The monsters in his cupboards / Are professing of his doom.

And he'll shake his head / And he'll scratch at his arms

And he'll wish his was somewhere / Far from his imagination's harm

Oh- conspiracy theories / Are all he will believe

And he'll shake his head / And he'll scratch at his arms

And he'll wish his was somewhere / Far from his imagination's harm

Oh, this man / That we're seeing

He is nothing / He is nothing

He is nothing like we thought he would be
