Lay beside me. Tell me what they've done. Speak the words I wanna hear. To make my demons run. The door is locked now. But it's open if you're true. If you can understand the me.
Fortune, fame, mirror vain, gone insane. But the memory remains. Heavy rings on fingers wave. Another star denies the grave. See the nowhere crowd cry the nowhere tears of honor.
Don't go looking for snakes. You might find them. Don't send your eyes to the sun. You might blind them. Haven't I seen you here before?. . Oh. Watch the puppets dancing.
There's a black cloud overhead. That's me. And the poison ivy chokes the tree. Again it's me. I'm the filthy one on Bourbon Street. You walk on by. I'm the little boy that pushes hard.
Off through the new day's mist I run. Out from the new day's mist I have come. I hunt. Therefore I am. Harvest the land. Taking of the fallen lamb. . Off through the new day's mist I run.
My eyes seek reality. My fingers seek my veins. There's a dog at your back step. He must come in from the rain. I fall 'cause I let go. . The net below has rot away.
Wish I may. Wish I might. Have this I wish tonight. Are you satisfied?. Dig for gold. Dig for fame. You dig to make your name. Are you pacified?. . All the wants you waste.
Open doors so I walk inside. Close my eyes. Find my place to hide. And I shake as I take it in. . Let the show begin. Open my eyes. Just to have them close again.
The window burns to light the way back home. . A light that warms, no matter where they've gone. . They're off to find the hero of the day. . But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way?.
.... Never hunger. Never prosper. . I have fallen prey to failure. Struggle within. Triggered again. . Now the candle burns at both ends. Twisting under schizophrenia.
By the last breath of the fourth winds blow. Better raise your ears. The sound of hooves knocks at your door. Lock up your wife and children now. It's time to wield the blade.
Yeah. Dolls of voodoo all stuck with pins. One for each of us and our sins. So you lay us in a line. Push your pins. They make us humble. Only you can tell in time.
Do you see what I see?. Truth is an offense. You silence for your confidence. Do you hear what I hear?. Doors are slamming shut. Limit your imagination.
Dear Mother. Dear Father. What is this hell you have put me through. Believer. Deceiver. Day in day out live my life through you. Pushed onto me what's wrong or right.
Say your prayers, little one. Don't forget, my son. To include everyone. . I tuck you in, warm within. Keep you free from sin. Till the sandman he comes.
Bodies fill the fields I see. Hungry heroes end. No one to play soldier now. No one to pretend. Running blind through killing fields. . Bred to kill them all.
Yeah. I feel you too. Feel. Those things you do. . In your eyes I see a fire that burns. To free the you that's running through. Deep inside you know.
Hit dirt. . Shake tree. . Split sky. . Part sea. . Strip smile. . Lose cool. . Bleed the day. . And break the rule. . Live to win. . Dare to fail. . Eat the dirt.
I'm diggin' my way.... . I'm diggin' my way to somethin'.... I'm diggin' my way to somethin' better.... I'm pushin' to stay.... . I'm pushin' to stay with somethin'....
I look at you then you me. Hungry and thirsty are we. Holding the lion's share, holding the key. Holding me back 'cause I'm striving to be. . (Better than you).
