LYRICS:

Just around the bend,
Try to comprehend,
These walking machines are not pretend,
Far from all repair,
Can you be prepared?
Don't make it obvious you're scared.
Lock up all the doors,
Hide until the morn,
There's no way out,
There's no way out.
So don't you even try,
To run away now.

Waiting out the clock,
Got no time to live.
Why'd you pick up a nighttime shift?
Every moment, danger,
Every moment, fear.
They already know that you are here.
So lock up all the doors,
Hide until the morn,
There's no way out,
There's no way out.
So don't you even try,
To run away now.

So put your sanity in your pocket,
Not gonna need it when they come knockin',
Forget about imagination,
And pray to God for your salvation.

You're alive right now,
Survive right now.
That's all you can do.
If you're alive right now,
Survive right now.
That's all you can do.

I’m no machine
Why would I lie?
Sometimes a dream
Is a nightmare disguised
No more time to rehearse
So I’ll grind through my verse
When I died, system fried
Don’t know why I still work

And the crime wasn’t solved
Purple guys - unabsolved
Tryna tie up the theories
Outlined on your walls
All the sins remain with the pain inside
They reskinned my face, but the paint won’t dry

Who said this place was made of magic, cuz I call it a casket
And in my case it’s open, but they’re hoping they can mask it
An attraction - that’s all I am to anyone
I guess you only learn what you’re worth when you’re gone

Nothing left to do I guess I’ll sing the songs that they want
Our collective conscience twisted up - as long as I’ve got
You in my heart I’ll know I’m not alone baby
It’s a comfort knowing we’re both going crazy

So put your sanity in your pocket,
Not gonna need it when they come knockin',
Forget about imagination,
And pray to God for your salvation.

You're alive right now,
Survive right now.
That's all you can do.
If you're alive right now,
Survive right now.
That's all you can do.

I'm crazy, I'm crazy,
I'm crazy, I'm going crazy,
I'm crazy, I'm crazy,
I'm crazy.

Just around the bend,
Try to comprehend,
These walking machines are not pretend,
Far from all repair,
Can you be prepared?
Look right over there.

So put your sanity in your pocket,
Not gonna need it when they come knockin',
Forget about imagination,
And pray to God for your salvation.

You're alive right now,
Survive right now.
That's all you can do.
If you're alive right now,
Survive right now.
That's all you can do.

I'm crazy, I'm crazy,
I'm crazy, I'm going crazy,
I'm crazy, I'm crazy,
I'm crazy.

    This MIGHT be Five Nights at Freddy's related

    I love how even after 9 years the FNAF fanbase has lived on and still continues to do so. The fact that this is making me emotional means that you've done something beautiful here. You being able to get JT on the song completed this all! Also oh my goodness I love all the references.

    0:34 me performing for my imaginary fans at 3AM

    I’ve always loved how Charlie tries to make songs about different games and such sound like they could be just original songs if you know nothing about what they actually are made for. Like this song feels like trying to overcome anxiety, with lyrics like “you’re alive right now, survive right now, that’s all you can do,” and such. It’s such a great skill that Charlie has to make songs about a game but still make them feel relatable to real things. I may be reaching with the anxiety thing, but it’s just a personal idea I had. Either way, thank you for continuing to make fire music Charlie. You are a big inspiration, and I can’t wait to see more.
  • @Ploomie.
    I appreciate the fact that CG5 can make a banger song from a fandom that's been around for years. It really takes a certain talent to be able to do something like this, you sir, have my respect.
  • @randomencounters
    Another blast-worthy banger from two of YouTube’s top talents. 👍 Pleasure joining your cast, Five!
  • @Sunnys.lif3
    "Your alive right now, survive right now" I just motivated for no reason 💀

    the fact that this man can get multiple people in good cosplay, a full music video, for a song about a movie that came out literally today. Amazing work.
  • @Boswizzles
    Im pretty sure theres a "I can fix you" reference during springilliamburnscraptrap's part.
  • @EverydayYouSlay
    I remember first hearing this song on the 5M stream when you didn't even have JT's verse yet and now that it's here I'm just so freaking happy! JT's verse went pretty hard and your voice is just so amazing and perfect 🤌🏻 wonderful job Charlie!
  • @Halotaku
    1:40 This has to be my favorite part of the video. Just having all of the cast members marching in lockstep is great, but with CG5 in the back, trying to fit in but also not really sure why he's here, and hoping none of them notice he's there, is such a great touch.
