They are calling, they are demanding me

And I can't stand it anymore, this is it

They are burning, there is no turning flat

My time has come, I'm a stab in my own back

Please tell me if there's a way out

'Cause I feel like a drop-out, like a fraud

And if you got a tool for me

And another one for the tumor in my head

Please let me rest

Where is the fiction? Where is the real world

That used to help me build my way?

Where is the fiction? Where is the real world?

The burning flames make me feel alive

They surround me, they are devouring me

And I don't stand a chance, no, no, no

I am burning, I cannot feel flat

My day has come, and you bet, I'm my own threat

Where is the fiction? Where is the real world

That used to help me build my way?

Where is the fiction? Where is the real world?

The burning flames make me feel alive

Burning in these flames I thought

Could never hurt me or my heart

The burning feels like I'm apart

From all the things I thought I loved

The burning feels like I'm apart

They force me into my shadow

These bells that play the royal anthem

They force me into my shell

Where I feel all these burning flames of haunting hell

(Burning in these flames I thought) Though I could never understand

Or feel what you did feel

(The burning feels like I'm apart) Thought I could never create myself this place called

Haunting hell
