One step at a time I'm going outta my mind I'm being hunted by something primal They're just simple machines Yet tainted souls they seem For five nights I'll fear for my survival Are they mechanical? They hunt like animals Freezing for seconds while I see their corpses I'm getting panicked now I'm locking this place down I'm feeling watched by unnatural forces Looks like I'd better run for my life I'll never be in one piece to see night five I've got eleven on my tail, with no time to think Of a way to survive mechanical instinct (Mechanical instinct) Just an hour more I'm closer than before To making it out of this ghastly madhouse I'm feeling desperate I'm starting to regret Taking my chances with no way out Who's walking down the hall? I can't keep track of them all A music box plays my dying song This is my one escape The mask still on my face But they have known I've been here all along Looks like I'd better run for my life I'll never be in one piece to see night five I've got eleven on my tail, with no time to think Of a way to survive mechanical instinct (Mechanical instinct) Here, all alone in the darkness Why, can't I escape their soulless eyes? It's a lost cause now They've got my scent, and I can't get out Now, I'm afraid to look because They, are just the beasts to hunt me down With no way fight back, the night is already over Looks like I'd better run for my life I'll never be in one piece to see night five I've got eleven on my tail, with no time to think Of a way to survive mechanical instinct Looks like I'd better run for my life I'll never be in one piece to see night five I've got eleven on my tail, with no time to think Of a way to survive mechanical instinct (Mechanical instinct) (Mechanical instinct)
