Asylums with doors open wide

Where people had paid to see inside

For entertainment they watch his body twist

Behind his eyes he says, "I still exist"

This is the way, step inside

This is the way, step inside

This is the way, step inside

This is the way, step inside

In arenas he kills for a prize

Wins a minute to add to his life

But the sickness is drowned by cries for more

Pray to God, make it quick, watch him fall

This is the way, step inside

This is the way, step inside

This is the way, step inside

This is the way, step inside

This is the way

This is the way

This is the way

This is the way

This is the way, step inside

This is the way, step inside

This is the way, step inside

This is the way, step inside

You'll see the horrors of a faraway place

Meet the architects of law face to face

See mass murder on a scale you've never seen

And all the ones who try hard to succeed

This is the way, step inside

This is the way, step inside

This is the way, step inside

This is the way, step inside

And I picked on the whims of a thousand or more

Still pursuing the path that's been buried for years

All the dead wood from jungles and cities on fire

Can't replace or relate, can't release or repair

Take my hand and I'll show you what was and will be
