Turn the Screw Lyrics

Can you tell me what you see?
Are you sure what you believe?
In the workshop of your mind,
Oh, the horrid things you'll find
There... in the dark

Hopeless castaway, herding her dismay
Sheltered there but constricted
Tell me what you see, and do you believe?
Or are you still conflicted?

It's just a turn of the screw... just an illusion threatening you
When all the madness overwhelms you,
just sit and turn the screw

Turn the screw

Hands are closing in, when the lamplight's dimmed
Is he just an illusion?
Specter in the night, that can rend your life,
Steal your soul and twist your mind

It's just a turn of the screw... just an illusion threatening you
When all the madness overwhelms you,
just sit and turn the screw

Turn the screw

Turn

It's just a turn of the screw... just an illusion threatening you
When all the madness overwhelms you,
just sit and turn the screw
It's just a turn, a turn of the screw

Can you tell me what you see?
Are you sure what you believe?
In the workshop of the mind,
Oh, the horrid things you'll find
turn. turn, turn the screw
