No one hears my voice
The songs of lesser men
My sun is going down
Never to rise again
Cold is heart and home
Hollow is the bone
Don't slow down or rest
Got to go and go and go (and go and go-go)
Paralyzed and mute
Staring at the ground
Blind to all the color
Going round and round
Does no one know the plan
Why do we pretend
Who can now withstand
Where now is the end
Crowd of people leaping round the fire
Whirling naked round the funeral pyre
Dropping it all and running looking to the sky
Feeling the body working wishing he could fly
Symbiotic host
Dreaming of being free
Demons of the mind
Stronger than you or me
Ever we seek to fly
Ever we seek to own
Never to know love
And never to be alone
The population swells
Falling on down the well
Only the plaintive cries
Dragging me down to hell
Bitter we trundle on through
The darkness of the day
Everyone loses hope
Everything fades away
Spinning dancing in a thunderstorm
Crashing rending wind to keep her warm
Five who join hands on a crowded street
Screaming up into the sun's bright heat
I got a pin and I'm sticking it in
It's going deep down far through the surface of skin
I got a big, wide smile reaching ear to ear
Got a voodoo doll and I got no fear
Standing on the cliff the wild wind blows
Throwing dollar bills while the howling grows
Walking deep and dark in tunnels underground
Dread and awe from the secrets they've found
.
