Madness comes in many terms and though it is labeled in the scientific world, there is still the world of the paranormal that cannot be explained.people fear what they cannot understand and therefore try to label it with logic.

Plunged into the depths of despair
It will isolate you
It will feed on your fear

You will know
When it enters your life
You will feel it everywhere
You will feel its strife

The negative spirit
Will make you wish
You hadn’t been born
From out of the darkness
You will feel its scorn

The negative spirit
An enemy of light
An enemy of God
And all things right

From out of the darkness
It will come
It will make you scream
It will make you run

From out of the darkness
You have surrendered to it
You have been labeled mad
You have been seen unfit

Now into a hospital
You must go
You’ve met the demon named insanity
Or didn’t you know
