Can you hear me? Am I speaking clearly?
Are you starstruck or just made of stone?
Do you need a savior? Some bad behavior?
Or you could cash it all in, I suppose
Because you're in deep, resisting repeats
Face forward and don't come unhinged
Block out the actors and all these bastards
That took all the fun out of rage and revenge
Don't be so quick to judge, reign havok from above
I think I've had enough, time to raise the dead
It's all subliminal, supernatural
I might be mental but I've still got my cred
So welcome to the party, won't you please come inside?
Where habits have teeth and the words carry knives
You enter at your own risk, so don't be surprised
Welcome to the darkside
Spare me your sorrow, there's no tomorrow
That's an empty promise at best
I tried to play nice, you were baptized in ice
So don't tell me you're just depressed
Don't be so quick to judge, reign havok from above
I think I've had enough, time to raise the dead
It's all subliminal, supernatural
I might be mental but I've still got my cred
So welcome to the party, won't you please come inside?
Where habits have teeth and the words carry knives
You enter at your own risk, so don't be surprised
Welcome to the darkside
Your equilibrium has been spun all around
And everything you know turned upside down
The symptoms are contagious so please be advised
So welcome to the darkside
Don't be so quick to judge, reign havok from above
I think I've had enough, time to raise the dead
It's all subliminal, supernatural
I might be mental but I've still got my cred
So welcome to the party, won't you please come inside?
Where habits have teeth and the words carry knives
You enter at your own risk, so don't be surprised
Welcome to the darkside
Your equilibrium has been spun all around
And everything you know turned upside down
The symptoms are contagious so please be advised
So welcome to the darkside
(Darkside, darkside) Welcome to the darkside
(Darkside, darkside) Welcome to the darkside
(Darkside, darkside) So welcome to the darkside
(Darkside, darkside) So welcome to the darkside
Are you starstruck or just made of stone?
Do you need a savior? Some bad behavior?
Or you could cash it all in, I suppose
Face forward and don't come unhinged
Block out the actors and all these bastards
That took all the fun out of rage and revenge
I think I've had enough, time to raise the dead
It's all subliminal, supernatural
I might be mental but I've still got my cred
Where habits have teeth and the words carry knives
You enter at your own risk, so don't be surprised
Welcome to the darkside
That's an empty promise at best

This song is basically a look inside Eric and Brent's minds. Its total chaos. They're saying "welcome to the party, won't you please come inside? Where habits have teeth and the words carry knives" Their addictions and bad habits are eating them alive while the hurtful words of others bounce around their head dragging them down. The mind can be a beautiful thing, it can also be a very dark place for some people.
