Beginning of the End

Old soul enters house of mental demise
Splitting from the young soul with whom they're defined
Paranoia, fear of pain, theft of what they adore
Becoming before

No control over body or emotions, helpless
They see the dead roam before us speaking comfort, depress
Bygone memories, names on tip of the tongue
Reverting to young

Day by day chapters wilt to dust
Play along with their tales, you must
Unseen

Out of nowhere, life grinds to a halt
Gone are the days of new memories
Who will care for the deluded ones?
Living conclusion, condemned
The beginning of the end
The beginning of the end

Communication breaks down, mania running wild
Hysteria through cries from the mind of a child
Living death lingers in the halls
Familiar face never calls

Fleeting glimpse of what's left of the person we seek
Grief spills from the window of the soul to the cheek
Hallucinations, newborn cradled tight but a doll
Final night in these walls

Day by day chapters wilt to dust
Play along with their tales, you must
Unseen

Out of nowhere, life grinds to a halt
Gone are the days of new memories
Who will care for the deluded ones?
Living conclusion, condemned
The beginning of the end
The beginning of the end

It's the end, it's the end, it's the end

The beginning of the end
The beginning of the end

(The beginning of the end)
