Lyrics

SCREAMS ECHO THROUGH THIS SILENT WASTELAND AND YOU KNOW
THE TIME IS NOW UPON YOU
THE FLAMES OF DOUBT TO BURN
CONJURE UP THE STRENGTH, MOVE TO ANOTHER PLACE AND TIME
SOON TO REVEAL THE DEADLY SECRETS OF OUR TIME

CAN'T GO ON
THIS DEADLY GAME
THIS THEATRE OF THE INSANE
THE OUTSTRETCHED HAND, THE HIDDEN GUN
THEATRE OF THE INSANE

NOW ALL IS LOST, AND DARKNESS IS SURROUNDING
DON'T KNOW WHERE TO RUN IN CONFUSION AND PAIN
LOOK UP TO THE SKY, THE LIGHTNING NOW IS BLINDING
FLASHES THAT CARRY ME BACK TO THE PAST

NOW
NIGHTMARES HAUNT YOU FREQUENTLY
THE PAIN OF WHAT YOU'VE DONE TOO MUCH TO TAKE
THE SUN'S LIGHT SHINES NO MORE ON YOU
FORCES OF DESTRUCTION
TAKING THEIR TOLL
ANOTHER CHANCE YOU PRAYED FOR
ANOTHER LIFE WITH MORE TIME TO LEARN
NOW IT'S OVER - YOU'LL BURN
FOR TERROR YOU GAVE TO MILLIONS
NOW IT'S HAUNTING YOU
(BUT) THERE'S STILL A STRANGE LIGHT IN YOUR EYES

SMASHING THROUGH THE WALLS OF FEAR THAT SHIELD YOU ONCE AGAIN
BECKONING NOW YOUR TIME HAS COME
REVENGE PART OF THE GAME
BLINDING FEAR UNREASONING HATE TO YOU ITS ALL THE SAME
'CAUSE WE'VE ALL GOT A PART TONIGHT
IN THE THEATER OF THE INSANE
