Illusion

Hi, I'm just a regular guy
That’s the illusion I made from the outside
Inside, I got a sick mind
When the mask goes on, prepare to die (2x)

Abstract thoughts in my mind begin to scatter
Hankerin’ depression, I don't know what’s the matter
I'm going mad like the hatter and I'm clearly insane
But my life is an illusion so I'm hiding the pain

It’s a strain to be normal but I'm trickin’ them all
What goes on in my mind, it’s like, off the wall
(???) makes tick, ‘cause it’s sick
I become a lunatic, and I need help

Used to wanna kill myself, now I wanna kill everybody else
But I look like a nice guy, you can't even tell
That I'm a psycho, Michael, find someone at random
Stalk them for months just to scare them, phantom

Dark in your house, I creep
Sit there all night just to watch you sleep
Then I'll sneak out the door just before you wake
The pitbull tried to protect you but I chewed up his face

I tried to escape from the realm of insanity
Sick of people sayin’ that they’re understandin’ me
You can't understand ‘cause I don't even know myself
I got a disease, I need psychiatric help

But I'm in denial, see me happy and smilin’
But inside, my mind already died
Maybe I'm depressed from feelings I’ve repressed
Never expressed, but now I'm obsessed with death

I guess something went wrong down the line
I can't control the ill thoughts in my mind
Look like a nice guy, wouldn''t hurt a fly
That’s just the illusion I created on the outside

Ah
I just gotta look normal
Un-until the mask goes on
Then they’ll see (Hahahahahaha)

Hi, I'm just a regular guy
That’s the illusion I made from the outside
Inside, I got a sick mind
When the mask goes on, prepare to die (3x)

Voices in my head haunting me
Demonic laughter from hell forever taunting me
I try to shut them up, I bash my head against the wall
But now they’re laughing harder at my bruised and bloody skull

The voices, the voices, they make my brain numb
Telling me to do sick shit in voodoo tongues
Doin’ what they tell me, just to shut them up
Think youre my friend but I'll still fuck you up

Thought I cared about you, that was an illusion
You don't understand, it’s my mind that I'm losin’
The man you knew was a mirage
A clean cut kid with body parts in my garage

I’m the quiet neighbour that you thought would never injure ya’
But I just slashed you, tied you up, put you in a tub of vinegar
Now you want me to kill ya’, you can’t take the torture
But I sorta like to see you in pain

Insane what I am but I always wasn't like this
Back in the days I wouldn't even write this
Used to make songs, and party and have fun
But now my ill joints make insane clowns run

I knew I was changed when I was on the brink of insanity
So I saw a shrink, he said I have to reach inside my inner self
Instead I reached for his throat and strangled him to death

Then I left his office with blood on my hands
People in the waiting room, all screamed and ran
But I didn't sweat it, I tried to forget it
And nobody knows that I'm a crazed schizophrenic

It’s hectic to create the illusion of a sane man
‘Cause I'm insane, man
Hahahaha, you thought you knew me?

Hi, I'm just a regular guy
THat’s the illusion I made from the outside
Inside, I got a sick mind
When the mask goes on, prepare to die (4x)

It's all an illusion
You don’t know me
