True Stories - Jumpsteady Lyrics - Psychopathics From Outer Space (part Two) - Insane Clown Posse

"Transmitting brand new Jumpsteady...." 

(Jumpsteady) 

Now I lay me down to sleep 

I pray the Lord my soul to keep 

Time swifts back upon my bed 

As the undead walk inside my head 

Don't you hear the ghostly calls? 

Transcending from beyond the walls 

They have shown in this life I've known 

There's another world beyond our own 

Twisted, broken, shadow land 

Connected by paths of emerald sand 

Have you seen the things I've seen? 

Been visited by phantom beings? 

Haunted by those in hooded cloaks 

Or been in the sance to invoke 

Many who see don't believe 

Because they chose naivety 

(Chorus) 

Don't you know that ghosts exist? 

Do you believe in exorcist? 

Don't you know that demons live? 

Do you live a life of sin? 

Don't you know they'll comfort you? 

Depending on the path you choose 

Don't you hear the ghostly calls? 

Or do you hide behind your walls? 

(Jumpsteady) 

Spiraling back into my past 

The nightmare upon my mind is cast 

Remembering a time so long ago 

When death took me into its fold 

As a young child awakening 

Face in a pillow suffocating 

All my senses were there to me 

But I couldn't move and I couldn't breathe 

As I died I realized 

There was a reason I was paralyzed 

Inside that room I was not alone 

There was a presence neither flesh or bone 

Even though I could not see 

I felt its evil beyond imagining 

More afraid of it than death 

I broke its hold upon my flesh 

(Chorus) 

Can't you hear the child's screams? 

Can you see horrific dreams? 

Can't you feel your death embrace? 

Can you follow the path of grace? 

Can't you see the world I see? 

Can you see the reality? 

Do you remember a time like this? 

Or is it locked away in subconsciousness? 

(Jumpsteady) 

As a child, I heard ghostly calls 

Striping insanity from my walls 

A female voice would come to me 

And say my name repeatedly 

Death's temptation from the grave 

Spoken word my life did fade 

Slowly forget as the years go by 

Plagued by nightmares, I wonder why? 

Dreams of a car flipping end to end 

Screams of a woman is deafening 

When I awake, I'm remembering 

The explosions of pain and dismembering 

Then one day a vision forms 

Inside my mind a dream was born 

I drove a car that's now destroyed 

A woman's inside like a broken toy 

Blood goes cold as I realized 

Her face is too bloody to recognize 

Looking through my horrified eyes 

Somehow I loved this woman who died 

Turning to me upon deaths embrace 

She calls my name out to space 

It's the voice of my childhood ghost 

I reach for her, but the vision is lost 

(Chorus) 

Won't you step up through the gate? 

Will you face up to your fate? 

Won't you hear their ghostly calls? 

Transcending from beyond the walls? 

Won't you enter the shadow land? 

And walk upon the emerald sand? 

Have you seen what I have seen? 

Or do you choose to be nave?
