lyrics

All theses oceans of desert painted on the Earth
all my friends are hurt, I've been a prisoner since my birth

There's a girl I know, she set my heart on fire
Now I don't feel the blow, she said “Drew I'm gonna take you higher”

I'm the dog in the pound, I'm your outta tune guitar
I'm that dirty sound you found saying “you won't get far”

I'm not afraid to die so I can be one again
Heaven is not in the sky the kingdom is within

Ain't no surprise I've been hypnotized
when I stare into the Mummy Man's eyes
Lord I crossed the line
Then I begin to realize no one see's when he arrives
Leave me alone I'll be just fine

I put too much substance rite into my head
flirted with insanity in the city of the dead
Now there's all these demons floating over my bed
“Oh dear lord” is all that she said

One thing I want to find, trade in madness for peace of mind
At least I'm never alone, there's always another host
Because even in my home, I'm visited by ghosts
