It's a promise that he made to himself

But the thrill puts his pact on the shelf

Locked in a prison he built over time

Made of bitterness, hate, and his lies



A life on trial a sad refrain

A mans denial of pain sustained

He can't control the deepening hole

He feels true peace with rage unleashed



The devil feeds on my thoughts 

Even when I pray

A broken promise that I'll 

Never lose it again?

The darkness sucks on my soul 

And keeps the sun away

I can't stop it so now 

Let the madness begin



So many voices bounce around in his head

Some tell him that he'd be better off dead?

Can't shake the urge when the madness calls

So set the world ablaze and watch the kingdom fall



A marriage failed a time in jail

A future bright turned black as night

He grins with hate all hope is erased

He can't resist the demons kiss 



The devil feeds on my thoughts 

Even when I pray

A broken promise that I'll 

Never lose it again?

The darkness sucks on my soul 

And keeps the sun away

I can't stop it so now 

Let the madness begin



[Solo]



The devil feeds on my thoughts 

Even when I pray

A broken promise that I'll 

Never lose it again?

The darkness sucks on my soul 

And keeps the sun away

I can't stop it so now 

Let the madness begin



The devil feeds on my thoughts 

Even when I pray

A broken promise that I'll 

Never lose it again?

The darkness sucks on my soul 

And keeps the sun away

I can't stop it so now 

Let the madness begin



Now let the madness begin
