This is the place you'll end up
When you lose the chase
Where you're dragged against your will
From a basement on the hill
And all anybody knows is you're not like them
And they kick you in the head and send you back to bed
Isolation pulled you past a tunnel
To a bright world where you can make a place to stay

But everybody's scared of this place
They're staying away
Your little house on Memory Lane

The mayor's name is Fear, his force patrols the pier
From a mountain of cliché that advances every day
The doctor spoke a cloud, he rained out loud
You'll keep your doors and windows shut
And swear you'll never show a soul again
But isolation pushes you until every muscle aches
Down the only road it ever takes

But everybody's scared of this place
They're staying away
Your little house on Memory Lane

If it's your decision to be open about yourself
Be careful, or else
Be careful, or else
Uncomfortable apart, it's all written on my chart
And I take what's given to me most cooperatively
I do what people say and lie in bed all day
Absolutely horrified, I hope you're satisfied
Isolation pushes past self-hatred, guilt, and shame
To a place where suffering is just a game

But everybody's scared of this place
They're staying away
Your little house on Memory Lane
Your little house on Memory Lane
