Maybe I was never lost
Just trapped in a maze of the mind
Needed to escape at any cost
Save the souls trapped inside
Where I could ever go from here
When my home is in these walls
Somehow, I don't feel alone
Hiding among these halls
I may not know my name
I'm broken all the same
Put me back in my place
Where you make me feel safe
Don't have the time to play
These games of death and rage
Feel like I've gone insane
Help me escape, Superstar
Are we all just animatronics souls?
Lost and don't know where to go
Can see emotion through the frame
Can feel the gravity of pain
Security comes at a cost
With these machines all trapped inside
Built from souls of the lost
Bloodthirsty by design
Will things ever change
When it all seems to end the same
Another life has been claimed
They can't get away, it can't be all in vain
I may not know my name
I'm broken all the same
Put me back in my place
Where you make me feel safe
Don't have the time to play
These games of death and rage
Feel like I've gone insane
Help me escape
Run away, run away
Run away from the pain
Run away, run away
Run away from the pain
Tell me I'll be OK
Under pressure won't break
And make no mistake
I'll find my way
I don't feel safe here in this place
Far from my home by some mistake
Locked in these walls and time feels fake
My insecurities break me
Tell me that I'm your Superstar
I'll hold those words true to my heart
Together we've made it this far
Burn down this place, let time restart
Are we all just animatronics souls?
Lost and don't know where to go
Can see emotion through the frame
Can feel the gravity of pain
Run away, run away
Run away from the pain
Run away, run away
Run away from the pain
Tell me I'll be OK
Under pressure won't break
And make no mistake
I'll find my way
I don't feel safe here in this place
Far from my home by some mistake
Locked in these walls and time feels fake
My insecurities break me
Tell me that I'm your Superstar
I'll hold those words true to my heart
Together we've made it this far
Burn down this place, let time restart
