Hundreds of people gathered around In a trance they dance when the vibe is really happenin' The rhythm and the beat of the music take control Just like primitive pagans worshipping idols of pleasure and pain they pray Spirits will come possess their souls Your mind aches, your knees begin to shake You shiver and quiver and squirm and then learn That your mind is melting, you're hallucinating And your whole world is melting MELTING DOWN You never expected to be so disconnected As to lose all sense of time and leave behind
The world that you once thought you knew so well Surrounded by people sharing the same vibe The emotional feedback is amplified Into a cyclone of madness that spins and spirals down The evening moves on, it's getting near dawn You're not tired, you're wired, you're on fire Your heartbeat is rising and your temperature's climbing And your whole world is melting Down you go now get up On your feet stand up Take a breath and catch up You're getting closer and closer Now you're MELTING DOWN
