I think you're gonna like it
I think you're gonna feel
You belong
A nocturnal vacation
Unnecessary sedation
You want to feel at home
Welcome to my nightmare, yeah
Welcome to my breakdown
I hope I didn't scare you
That's just the way we are

Cause life is just a dream here
You know inside you feel
Right at home here
Welcome to my breakdown, whoa
You're welcome to my nightmare, yeah
Welcome to my nightmare
