lyrics

Five subjects deemed enemies to the state
Offer their freedom and a fresh clean slate
Left with no choice, they accepted
Fifteen days with no sleep you must go
Results are what we wish to see
Breathe our gases
Locked in a chamber with small portholes

Now lets begin
The doors closed as the gas spewed
None could have predicted the outcome
But it would come soon
All seems well
The subjects being monitored
Come day five and the experiment would take a turn
As panic and distress now sink in
Paranoia begins
Conversation stops as they
Plead for their release

After the ninth day, the first of them started screaming
Eventually screams reduced to squeaks
One man had physically torn his own vocal cords
Yet the other subjects they paid no mind
Unhindered they continued whispering into the microphones

While another subject began screaming
The remaining captives began tearing
Page after page from their books
Only to smear their own feces on them
To paste them calmly over the portholes

The screaming promptly stopped

Three more days now passed
Nothing to be seen or heard
But on day fourteen they said
"We are opening the door
Step back and lie on the floor or you will be shot
Compliance is freedom"

"We no longer wish to be freed" stated a subject
As the scientists broke into a debate
It was decided to open the door on the fifteenth day
To reveal the mystery inside
The chamber flushed of the stimulant gas and filled with fresh air
Immediately voices erupt
"Please, please, please, turn the gas on!"
Screaming, "Please, I need it!"
What was seen was hardly alive

Creatures of no name
Flesh disintegrated
Vitals now exposed
Meat ripped from the bone
How putrid the stench must have been
Each of the living ones now off to surgery
So they could attempt to study their subjects
Crying out for their haven of toxic breath
Only to be shot by a man who said
"What are you? I must know"
