Asylum Rift

Hello, my name is five eight nine Ray

I will be your assistant tonight And happy Halloween Listen closely as

the story unfolds You’re in a haunted asylum,

doors don’t breathe White halls bending where the light should be Name

on a wristband, ink gone cold Follow my voice,

do what you’re told

Nurses with no faces count your steps

A lullaby of keys and metal clamps

If you hear your own name in the vents Don’t answer back,

it only tempts Keep your eyes on the floor tiles Count to

ten, don’t break the smiles Every room has a bedtime prayer

And it ends with you stuck in there

Happy Halloween, don’t turn away I’m your assistant,

I’ll guide the night In the asylum,

you’ll learn to stay Hold your breath when the walls go quiet

Happy Halloween, hear the bell One more story and you’re inside it

Step by step, down the stairwell Say my name and the dark

will like it

The clock in the lobby chews up time Hands go backwards,

still it chimes A doctor hums through cracked glass teeth Writes your

fear like a recipe Hear the gurneys roll in pairs Like a

prayer you can’t unhear If you blink,

the map will change And every hallway knows your face I keep

the records, I keep the keys I know the parts you try

to leave

If you want out,

sign on the line It’s written in a shaking light

Happy Halloween, don’t turn away I’m your assistant,

I’ll guide the night In the asylum,

you’ll learn to stay Hold your breath when the walls go quiet

Happy Halloween, hear the bell One more story and you’re inside it

Step by step, down the stairwell Say my name and the dark

will like it Listen closely,

the doors are sealed

Five eight nine Ray,

that’s how it’s spelled

Happy Halloween, the story’s done

But you’re still here when it’s gone
