Can you feel it?
It's a place from down below, it's a face that never shows
It's the kind you won't believe, follow me
Won't you listen to the voice inside your head?
It's a voice that wants you dead
It will eat all that you give, if you live
Don't you want to know where you shouldn't go?
Let's fall in the mud, flowers in the blood
There's a chance you shouldn't take
There's a voice you shouldn't wake
Better listen now to me, don't disagree
You should worry 'bout the voice inside your head
About the things you heard it said
Round and round it plays its game, all the same
Don't you want to know ways you shouldn't go?
Let's fall in the mud, flowers in the blood
Don't you want to know where you shouldn't go?
Let's fall in the mud, flowers in the blood
It's a place from down below, it's a face that never shows
It's the kind you won't believe, just follow me
Won't you listen to the voice inside your head?
It's a voice that wants you dead
It will eat all that you give, if you live
Don't you want to know ways you shouldn't go?
Let's fall in the mud, flowers in the blood
