Can I play with madness?
|
|
Give me the sense to wonder
|
To wonder if I'm free
|
Give me a sense of wonder
|
To know I can be me
|
Give me the strength to hold my head up
|
Spit back in their face
|
Don't need no key to unlock this door
|
Gonna break down the walls
|
Break out of this bad place
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Can I play with madness?
|
The prophet stared at his crystal ball
|
Can I play with madness?
|
There's no vision there at all
|
Can I play with madness?
|
The prophet looked at me and laughed at me (ha ha) He said:
|
Can I play with madness?
|
He said you're blind, too blind to see
|
|
Said you're too blind to see
|
|
I screamed aloud to the old man
|
I said don't lie, don't say you don't know
|
I say you'll pay for this mischief
|
In this world or the next
|
Oh and then he fixed me with a freezing glance
|
And the hell fires raged in his eyes
|
He said you wanna know the truth son?
|
Lord, I'll tell you the truth
|
Your soul's gonna burn in a lake of fire
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Listen to me, said the prophet
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Can I play with madness?
