 Psycho!!


After the 1st chourus, play the 1st verse riff again with new lyrics, again listen to 
song for the right timing, then play the chorus again twice, which leads into the ending riff.

2nd Verse

Gone...
All that's come before.
We are the nocturnal.
Creatures at the bottom of the sea if they could rise.
Our faces’ poison pale, crawl evolution's hellish trail
And wait for the night to arrive.
