Title: My Name is Insanity
Type: Poem/Song

Hello there, who am I?
I have to many names to answer to.

These names, those names.
Names are given to me left and right.

You may call me many names,
But one I do prefer.
The one I do prefer,
Is the one I want to hear.

The name's Insanity
And this is how I play.
Left and right I glare at you
With many things to say.

My arms are bound to my body,
With reasons beyond my reach.

Someday I'll tear through these chains,
And be set free from these brains.

Oh hello there,
Who am I do you ask.

Have I told you what my name is?
I haven't? Oh, dear.

Pardon me. Excuse me.
Will you give me a moment to recover?

My head is filled with many things
Which are nuisances, even now they bother.

You may call me many names,
But one I do prefer.
The one I do prefer,
Is the one I want to hear.

My name is Insanity
And this is how I play.
Left and right I glare at you
With many things to say.

Did you know my mouth is covered?
Oh, how hard it is for me to speak.

My screams could tear you limb from limb,
But did you know they're only cries that are oblique?

Oh my, many visitors I have today.
And there's only one thing I've got to say.

Hello there.
Who are you? No, who am I?

You may call me many names,
But one I do prefer.
The one I do perfer,
Is the one I want to hear.

My name is Insanity
And this is how I play.
Left and right I glare at you
With many things to say.

I sleep in a room that is plastered with white.
All around me I see the treacheries that lay before night.

The future, the past, I see it all.
No one believes me but I'm sure you will.

My name is Insanity
And this is how I play.
I carved my name into my arm long ago,
So that I will never forget...

Who I was,
Who I am,
Or who I was born to be.
Why, oh why, did you do this to me?

Yes, you.
It was you.

You were the one who tore my mind
With mental games which I now play.

Don't you dare laugh because it is now my turn.
It is my turn to hunt you, hurt you, and forever more love you.

For my name is Insanity.
[No, it's Elizabeth]

No, it's not! Don't you dare call me that!
[But that's you're real name from what I thought]

That name is forbidden for you and for me.
[You're Elizabeth from what I remember you to be]

Don't make me cut your tongue out!
[You won't, you know]

I'll dare you to say that name once more.
Because that'll be the last of you.

My dear that'll be the last of you
Because my name is Insanity.
And that is how I play.
And until the end you'll stay,
forever by my side.
My love, my enemy, myelf, you and I.
