Dr. Replay: Madness Calling, Sanity Paging!

"Lazy people do a little work
And think they should be winning!
But winners work as hard as possible
And still wonder if they're being lazy!"

Wandering through the corridors of my mind
A face in the shadows, so twisted, maligned
No right from wrong, no empathy to feel
Are the baddies he killed even real?

It's haunting my thoughts, creeping into my dreams
A mirror so grotesque, it shatters my screams!
Madness calling, whispering my name
In the depths of my Soul, let's play his game!

Phobias and neuroses make the walls close in
I can feel his inflammation beneath my skin!
"Your resistance intrigues me, can't you see?
Together, we could unravel reality!"

"Numb to touch, can't feel the day
Shadows in his head, hope he's okay!"
Flashes of past and mirrors of dread
Conversations in my head!

Nobody believes me, they say it's "all in my head"
But how do you fight what's already so widespread?
Haunting my thoughts, plaguing me with deepest dread
"Master of Chaos, how do you kill who's already dead?"

Heart's pounding, but I can't feel the beat
Moments freeze, but they never repeat!
Ghosts in my head, they never retreat
Life's a game that I can't ever delete!

"Sanity's paging, Replay!"
"Out of his head, sorry, there ain't no Replay!"

Madness calling, whispering his name
In the depths of his Soul, let's play his game!
"Your resistance intrigues me, can't you see?
Together, we could unravel reality!"

Ghost now, feel like a ghost now!
An Other sometimes aware, but ignored by most now!
Is the struggle really all that we are?
Wading through this life's haze, from near to far?

Born a bargain chip that was never sold now
Deep breath in, let it flow out!
Try to find my place in a world that's had me thrown out!
And I still wanna know it all now!

Wait, something feels different, he's starting to stir
About his lack of sanity, never been more sure!
A Cosmic joke, a challenge for this lore?
An Eldritch Being wants to see if I'll be more!

To push me past the brink, is his only goal
But little does he know, I've got a dualistic Soul!
Juggling realities, no firm foundation
Locked in battle with intellect's activation!

House built on sand, missing pieces
He'll be fine when the tremor ceases!
Leave the kitchen if you can't stand the heat!
Tell me phrases that I just can't repeat

"Ghosts in his head, he barely eats!
Why do these things always happen to me?
Sanity's paging, Replay!"
"Out of his head, there ain't no Replay!"

Madness calling, whispering his name
In the depths of his Soul, let's play his game!
"Your resistance intrigues me, can't you see?
Together, we could unravel reality!"

"Sanity's paging, Replay! Should I take a message?
What should I say?"
"In the dance of Light and Dark, we spin
A game of wills, who'll lose, who'll win?
Madness may call, but I won't let it in!"

"Sanity's paging, Replay!"
"For every Darkness, there's a Light within!"
"Are you here? Oh, you'll be back, what day?
As long as you're not going out of your way!"

Don't know right from wrong, much less the beat
Telling me phrases that I just can't repeat!
Ghosts in my head, I barely eat!
Why do these things always happen to me?

Sanity's calling Replay
Outta his head, ain't no Replay!
"Numb to touch, can't feel the day
Shadows in his head, man, I really hope he's okay!"

"Your resistance intrigues me, can't you see?
Together we could unravel reality!"
Madness calling, whispering your name
Sanity's paging Replay out of his head!

There ain't no Replay!
In the depths of your Soul, let's play my game!
Your resistance intrigues me!
