Go Back

I can't say goodbye, I can't say goodnight
Can't say goodbye, can't say goodnight

I wanna go back to when
The screams were real
And beautiful terror is
What I wanna feel
Dripping over me like a
Long lost memory
I wanna go back to when
The nights were red
Mechonized agony and
Trouble in my head
It wasn't good, and I don't feel bad
Those five nights were the best I've ever had

Where did you go?
All my friendly nightmares?
My skin is crawling and
Nobody cares
Shadows are falling and I will catch them
In my dreams tonight

I can smell the oil
And I can taste the past
I shiver and recoil at the
Demons I've amassed
They keep me company so I will never be alone
I'm trapped in my mind, but my mind is not my own

Why does the pain remain inside?
I will never, never be sure
But if it disappeared I wouldn't know
Who I was anymore

I wanna go back to when
The screams were real
And beautiful terror is
What I wanna feel
Dripping over me like a
Long lost memory
I wanna go back to when
The nights were red
Mechanized agony and
Trouble in my head
It wasn't good, and I don't feel bad
Those five nights were the best I've ever had

Oh, now the night is over
And I can feel the sun
It's been forever since
I've had a little fun
My blood is pumping but I've never felt less alive
I wish that I could go back to night number five

It may be crazy but I've always
Been a little strange
And if you wanna join me
That can be arranged
So let's go back and let's relive the time we thought we'd die
And if we make it out we'll have ourselves a pizza pie

Why does the pain remain inside?
I will never, never be sure
But if it disappeared I wouldn't know
Who I was anymore

I wanna go back to when
The screams were real
And beautiful terror is
What I wanna feel
Dripping over me like a
Long lost memory
I wanna go back to when
The nights were red
Mechonized agony and
Trouble in my head
It wasn't good, and I don't feel bad
Those five nights were the best I've ever had
