There's a reign over the horizon

The lunatics have taken the asylum

Fear is like a dagger

And blood is dripping off the blade

They wave it like a scepter

In the kingdom come of the insane

There's a wake up in the shelter

The prisoners have broke their chains

All hail the deceptors

Who poison and manipulate

Somebody sound the alarm

Somebody ring the bell

Grab the noose, the psychos are loose

And we're headed straight for hell

Ya'll better run for cover

The writing is on the wall

It's pandemonium

And Rome is about to fall

There's a reign over the horizon

The lunatics have taken the asylum

We're on the edge, it's an uprisin'

The lunatics have taken the asylum

(The lunatics have taken the asylum)

(The lunatics have taken the asylum)

Deadly is the viper

That licks the venom from their fangs

Watch the way they slither

Like a parasite inside your brain

Too many sharks in the water

Circling the weakest prey

Like a sniper in the shadows

Waiting just to take his aim

There's a reign over the horizon

The lunatics have taken the asylum

We're on the edge, it's an uprisin'

The lunatics have taken the asylum

Somebody sound the alarm

Somebody ring the bell

Drop the noose, too much to lose

We gotta save ourselves

We better run for cover

The writing is on the wall

We gotta take our power back

Before they take us all

There's a reign over the horizon

The lunatics have taken the asylum

We're on the edge, it's an uprisin'

The lunatics have taken the asylum

There's a reign over the horizon

The lunatics have taken the asylum

We're on the edge, it's an uprisin'

The lunatics have taken the asylum

Oh have taken the asylum

The lunatics have taken the asylum

Oh and it's an uprising

The lunatics have taken the asylum
