White coats to bind me, out of control
I live alone inside my mind
World of confusion, air filled with noise
Who says that my life's such a crime?
Trapped, in this nightmare
I wish I'd wake
As my whole life begins to shake
four walls surround me
an empty gaze
I can't find my way out of this maze
Cause I don't care
Fall in, fall out
Gone without a doubt, help me
I can't take the blame
They don't feel the shame
It's a madhouse
Or so they claim
It's a madhouse
Oh, am I insane?
My fears behind me, what can I do
My dreams haunt my sleep at night
Oh no, won't learn their lesson, white fills my eyes
And only then they see the light

What is the meaning behind Madhouse lyrics?
When we reflect on what the artist might have meant, Anthrax in their song 'Madhouse' goes sport with the listeners' rather skate the feeling of being imprisoned in the middle of a confusing and chaotic world, where one probably will ask himself and suffer inwardly, trying to find someone who could assist him in the finding and clearing the mad part of the world around him. It was like the whole thing was going on in the protagonist's mind and he was all alone in the fight. The usage of madhouse as a metaphor indicated the border between the real world and one's nightmares was so thin that he was already begging for help and looking for light in the darkness of filtered madness. Madhouse lyrics continue speaking about mainly pain, suffering, loneliness, purging one's thoughts, and finally, rage. In fact, the song gives a big lash to the mental fight, isolation, and society's judgment and desperation. There is no doubt the lyrics dealing with the minds' turmoil and confusion, are not appropriate for children below 13. Not only the mentions of being in a nightmare and the feelings of insanity indicate a darker emotional context that needs parental guidance. ✔️
