There's something deep within I can't get rid of it  Something inside me causing horror in my head  I'm a stranger to myself  Don't know what I'm doing  Know what I'm doing  Tortured spirit haunting me  Playing with my sanity  Taking over steal my soul  I'm in a mental stranglehold  Don't want to share myself with you or someone else  What kind are you to split my mind and bend my will  Just get out of my life  Now why don't you leave me  why don't you free me  Chorus  And when my better part has gone  My alter ego still lives on  we're two persons in one  I can't break the bonds  Tortured spirit haunting me  Playing with my sanity  Taking over steal my soul  I'm in a mental stranglehold  Tortured spirit leave me be  Now tell me what you want from me  Taking over steal my soul  Tortured spirit don't do it oh no
