God damn it, Dennis,

let me out of the chair!

Let me tell you a story about

a worse deception still.

(door creaking)

Now I lay me down to sleep,

I pray the Lord my soul to keep.

If I die before I wake,

I pray the Lord my soul to take.

And I pray the Lord forgive me,

but he cannot stay.

He takes attention I need

from my Mommy away.

He reminds me all the time

that I'm not him.

Forgive me, oh Lord,

but I'm about to sin.

These injuries could not have

happened in the fall.

Ah-ha!

The jealous older brother.

He's the victim of an attack.

I'll revive him, he'll talk.

Talk to me, boy.

Beautiful, beautiful boy.

God dammit, Dennis!

Get me out of this chair.

Foiled! No, not foiled,

just a setback.

We'll bring you back.

And your brother

will get his comeuppance.

Everyone is deceiving everyone.

We're not social animals,

it's a rogue world.

A spider world.

The itsy bitsy spider

crawled up the water spout

Down came the rain,

and washed the spider out.

(roaring)

Dennis! Let me out

of the chair!

Dennis!

Dennis!

(roaring)

(gasping)

(screaming)

(screaming)

The doctors tell me

if I received orders

to kill from the person

who made up my dreams

and the person I saw

in the mirror,

then I ordered myself to kill.

I am simply insane.

None of this is real,

but that isn't true.

I'm not in this hospital.

This isn't me.

I'm in this hospital,

this is me.

All I do now is hope, hope

that the cheap electric car

will come crashing

through the doors.

I'll be safely back

at the carnival.

and the scariest haunted

house in the world

will finally come to an end.

Woman:
La, la, la,

la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la

(music playing)
