Ignore the screams of agony
The begging for release
Don't meet the monsters eyes
Or feed the hungry beast
Keep your head down
Quicken your pace
We're all prisoners here
Trying to escape this place
Don't stop to talk
For they will lie
The boogeyman lurking
Reaper waiting for you to die
Every fear come alive
Every nightmare come true
Creeping up from behind
Just to torture you
This is the House of Madmen
So enter if you dare
But I warn you now
You best prepare
Filled with dark secrets
It's a hell of another kind
So I welcome you to the House of Madmen
I welcome you to your mind.

Well, I honestly wasn't going for rhyming or anything. I just sat down and started writing. This is what came out.

Though the rhyming is impecible (and still makes sense) it lacks timing. The photo, I get. Sort of. I give it a three.
