The World Has Gone Insane

♪The world has gone insane
And parasites are eating at my brain
And nothing is the way it was before

A pack o' wolves is howling at my door!♪

A series of loud knocks echoes through the night, and a haggard looking man answered the door, large round glasses askew on his face, and purple bags under his eyes. A small smile came upon the mans face as he let an older fellow into his home, the glasses wearing man spoke to his elder in a tired but friendly tone of voice "Cameron! come in, come in!". Cameron entered, a frown firmly in place as he spoke to his younger counterpart "You can't keep doing this Charles! these... experiments your doing.... they border on heresy!" Charles also frowned as he heard his friends accusation. "Heresy!? I'm trying to save people! surely you remember this Cameron?" Cameron sadly shook his head "I'm sorry Charles, I won't report you, but I won't stand by you either.... don't talk to me again" A door was slammed, and that was that.

♪The world has lost its head
And every evil hour is filled with dread
I'm floating on a lake - But upside down!
And when I try to breathe, I start to drown♪

The sounds of bubbling concoctions and the smell of the weird and wonderful, all normal things in an alchemist's workshop, yet the moaning of stray animals and the baying of injured hounds? Charles stood before yet another decrepit stray pet caught from the streets, another damned soul strapped to his table. he administered yet another new formula…. the sounds of dripping blood, animalistic pained howling, and loud cursing filled the workshop as yet another failure was recorded.

♪The world has lost its mind
And everywhere I turn, I fear I'll find
Some nightmare worse than those I see!
Void damned demons closing in on me♪

Charles let out yet another curse as he heard news in the tavern that night, more brawls, more tales of racist men and prejudiced elves. he took another sip from his glass, as he muttered "Fock the Great Way, Fock the Allorn Empire, Fock the Kathar Schemers.... Fock them all for pumping this world full of chaos"

♪The World has gone topsy turvey!
How can it be
That even though they see my plight
Everyone is blind!♪


Charles came home to see his wife packing up her things, and his children gone... "What are you doing my love, where are you going!?" he exclaimed! "Away from you and your thrice damned foolishness!" she practically screamed back at him. "We had a dream together! a purpose! a goal! you cannot quit now!" Charles cried out! "I can and I will, don't try and find us...." his now ex-wife replied, as she pushed past a dumbfounded Charles.... that damnable woman couldn't resist a parting shot "Your little secret? its burned! smashed! stop this before its too late!". Charles ran to the back room, to find the animals euthanized, the notes burned and the concoctions smashed about the floor....

Charles began to let out a broken little giggle, and then a horrid sounding laugh, and he sang...

♪The world has gone berserk!
And hiding in the murk, new monsters lurk!
I see a sea of snakes upon the floor!
I see the reaper grinning at my door!
I scream in silence!
Bad is good and good is bad!
Sacred if profane!
And perhaps its wiser to be mad
IN A WORLD THATS GONE INSANE!♪
