"Sadie (Split Version)"

You're on your own, my little nightmare, you cannot stay here
It's far too bright for you
If they attack you just lay there
Play dead, dear. It's your only hope of pulling through

And seconds they seem like a lifetime
A dream, recurring, a dream that can't come true
And they'll pin it all on you
After all you've been put through

"Sadie G. She's crazy. See?"
That's what the "white coats" say
Now Ms. Susan A. is losing every opportunity to put us all away

Go run along, my little nightmare
Your job is done here
You've scared them all to death
If they revive them just sit there
Just smile, dear. Make them thankful for every breath

The sentence may seem like a lifetime
A scream, that curdling the blood they found on you
And your knives and clothing too
Charlie's broken .22

"Sadie G. She's crazy. See?"
That's what the "white coats" say
Now Ms. Susan A. is losing every opportunity

Well, they found you and they shipped you up the river the same way that you've bound and gaged
You've shot and stab
You tried to set them free, but they've thrown away the keys

"I think that if I found a god to me that was so beautiful that I'd do anything for him. I'd do anything for God. Even murder, if I believed it was God. How could it not be right? Because he said it was. I have no remorse for the killer inside of me. I have no guilt in me."

Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
