[Verse 1]
Can I trust my eyes?
Can I trust my mind?
Everyone been saying that I'm on and on telling lies
I always thought myself a good, honest, righteous man
Can I believe what they're telling me?
You got me doubting who I am

[Pre-Chorus]
Are they trying to help me?
Are they trying to send me...

[Chorus 1]
To the asylum?
Don't put my eyes away
Asylum
Won't see the light of day

[Verse 2]
I know you think I'm sick
That I might hurt myself
Who the hell are you to contradict my mental health?
You're fabricating what you think this sickness is
You're banging on but I know you're wrong
And the truth is getting twisted

[Pre-Chorus]
You're not trying to help me
You are trying to send me..

[Chorus 1]
To the asylum
Don't put my eyes away
Asylum
Won't see the light of day

[Chorus 2]
Is that where I'm supposed to be?
Have I lost my grip on reality?
Gotta cut the cord
Shut the door
Take my eyes into a psych ward

[Bridge]
Please believe me
Please release me

Clenching my fist
I'm banging at the door
You know I told you I won't see the light no more
Nothing but white surrounding me
I hear screams in the distance
(Screams in the distance)
Screams in the distance
(Screams in the distance)
Screams in the distance
(Screams in the distance)

Please believe me
Please release me

[Chorus 1]
From the asylum
Don't put my eyes away
Asylum
Won't see the light of day

[Chorus 2]
Is that where I'm supposed to be?
Have I lost my grip on reality?
Gotta cut the cord
Shut the door
Check my eyes into a psych ward

[Outro]
You got to release me
You got to, got to, got to
Release me
