Psycho Pt. 1 Lyrics

They called me a psycho

But what do they know?

I walk the line between dreams and dread

With voices that howl inside my head

I don't sharpen knives I don't plot crimes

I play my games with words and rhymes

I don't need blood to paint the scene

Just give me love that's stained and mean

Psycho — that's what they said

But it's their world that's hanging by a thread

I'm the sane one here I'm sure of that

In this madhouse of regret

I wear no masks I show my face

I stand alone in this crooked place

You wear your suits your holy crown

But I've seen kings come crashing down

The butcher sings while carving meat

The banker smiles from his golden seat

The preacher bows and shuts his eyes

And every word is laced with lies

Psycho — that's what they said

But it's their world that's hanging by a thread

I'm the sane one here I'm sure of that

In this madhouse of regret

What's normal now?

Who makes the rules?

The fools are kings

The kings are fools

The city's burning the streets are cracked

The righteous lost the devils packed

And here I stand with nothing to hide

While you all drown in poisoned pride

So call me mad call me insane

But I won't play your dirty game

I see the strings I know the score

The truth you hide the sins you store

I'll take your love I'll take your pain

I'll wear them both like iron chains

For madness is a gift you see

The only way to set you free

Psycho — that's what they said

But it's their world that's hanging by a thread

I'm the sane one here I'm sure of that

In this madhouse of regret

The guitar strums a broken chord

The organ hums a quiet word

And through the cracks the voices sing

"Psycho's just another king"
