Crazy, but that's how it goes Millions of people living as foes Maybe it's not to late To learn how to love And forget how to hate
Mental wounds not healing Life's a bitter shame I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I've listened to preachers I've listened to fools I've watched all the dropouts Who make their own rules One person conditioned to rule and control The media sells it and you have the role
Mental wounds still screaming Driving me insane I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I know that things are going wrong for me You gotta listen to my words Yeh-h
Heirs of a cold war That's what we've become Inheriting troubles I'm mentally numb Crazy , I just cannot bear I'm living with something that just isn't fair
Mental wounds not healing Who and what's to blame I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I met a magic man, who had a daughter She learned her lessons well, but still i taught her She followed willingly, as lambs to slaughter We shared forbiden fruits, and things i brought her You may say i'm a miracle mannequin, Here i come with my mystical plan again, Although you think i can, i'm just a man And I don't walk on water (oh no) I don't walk on water (oh no) I followed willingly, a sweet temptation She had me hypnotized, and still i'm waiting My dromedary dreams as wet as oceans With sand dunes bearing seeds she set in motion You may say i'm a cynical charlatan There i go with my whimsical ways again Although you think i can, i'm just a man And i don't walk on water (oh no) I don't walk on water (oh no) I don't walk on water (oh no) I don't walk on water (oh no) Kaliedoscopial eyes as you look in the mirror And the long is getting shorter as the far is now nearer Are you just a mirror standing in front of me? Am i blind, can my eyes really see? You may say i'm a miracle mannequin, Here i come with my mystical plan again, Although you think i can, i'm just a man And i don't walk on water (oh no) I don't walk on water (oh no) I don't walk on water (oh no) I don't walk on water (oh no) My dromedary dreams as wet as oceans With sand dunes bearing seeds she set in motion My dromedary dreams My dromedary dreams My dromedary dreams
People look to me and say Is the end near, when is the final day What's the future of mankind How do I know, I got left behind Everyone goes through changes Looking to find the truth Don't look at me for answers Don't ask me - I don't know How am I supposed to know Hidden meanings that will never show Fools and prophets from the past Life's a stage and we're all in the cast Ya gotta believe in someone asking me who is right, Asking me who to follow, don't ask me, I don't know, I don't know - I don't know - I don't know
Nobody ever told me I found out for myself Ya gotta believe in foolish miracles It's not how you play the game It's if you win or lose you can choose Don't confuse win or lose, it's up to you It's up to you - it's up to you - it's up to you

Yesterday has been and gone Tommorow will I find the sun or will it rain Everybody's having fun except me I'm the lonely one I live in shame
*I said goodbye to romance (yeah) Goodbye to friends, I tell you goodbye to all the past I guess that we'll meet, we'll meet in the end
I've been the king, I've been th clown now broken wings can't hold me down I'm free again The jester with the broken crown It won't be me this time around to love in vain
*repeat
And I feel the time is right although I know That you just might say to me What you gonna do What you gonna do But I have to take this chance Goodbye to friends and to romance And to all of you And to all of you come'on now!
*repeat
The weather is looking fine And I think the sun will shine again And I feel I've cleared my mind All the past is left behind again
Mr. Crowley, what went on in your head Mr. Crowley, did you talk with the dead Your life style to me seemed so tragic With the thrill of it all You fooled all the people with magic You waited on Satan's call Mr.Charming, did you think you were pure Mr. Alarming, in nocturnal rapport Uncovering things that were sacred manifest on this Earth Conceived in the eye of a secret And they scattered the afterbirth (solo) Mr.Crowley, won't you ride my white horse Mr. Crowley, it's symbolic of course Approaching a time that is classic I hear maidens call Approaching a time that is drastic Standing with their backs to the wall
Was it polemically sent l wanna know what you meant I wanna know I wanna know what you meant
Silver screen such a disgrace I couldn't look her straight in the face A blue addiction I livein disgust Degradation I'm being eaten by lust
*No bone movies No bone movies No bone movies
Inspiration that's blue and uncut Can't kick the habit obsession of smut Voyeur straining in love with his hand A poison passion a pulsating gland
*Repeat
Flaps
I shouldn't do it the guilt tells me why I just can't stop it I try and I try X rated demon that lives in my head Hungary for bodge and he wants to be fed
Over the mountain take me across the sky Something in my vision, something deep inside Where did I wander, where d'ya think I wandered to I've seen life's magic astral plane I travel through
*I heard them tell me that this land of dreams was now I told them I had ridden shooting stars And I said I'd show them how
Over and over always tried to get away Living in a daydream only place I had to stay Fever of a breakout burning in me miles wide People around me talking to the walls inside
*Repeat
Don't need no astrology it's inside of you and me You don't need a ticket to fly with me-I'm free
Over and under in between the ups and downs Mind on a carpet magic ride goes round and round Over the mountain kissing silver inlaid clouds Watching my body disappear into the crowd
Don't need no astrology it's inside of you and me You don't need a ticket to fly with me-I'm free
Got a crazy feeling I don't understand 'Gotta get away from here Feelin' like I shoulda kept my feet on the ground Waitin' for the sun to appear
Mamma's gonna worry I been a bad bad boy No use sayin' sorry It's somethin' that I enjoy
'Cause you can't see what my eyes see (I can see it, I can see it) And you can't be inside of me, flying high again
I can see through mountains watch me disappear I can even touch the sky Swallowing colors of the sound I hear Am I just a crazy guy (You bet)
Mamma's gonna worry I been a bad bad boy No use sayin' sorry It's somethin' that I enjoy
If you could be inside my head You'd see that black and white is read Flying high again Flying high again Flying high again Flying high again come on and join me
Flying high again Flying high again Flying high again Flying high again come on and join me
Daddy thinksI'm lazy he don't understand Never saw inside my head People think I'm crazy but I'm in demand Never heard a thing I said
Mamma's gonna worry I've been a bad bad boy No use sayin' sorry It's somethin' I enjoy
Flying high again Flying high again Flying high again Flying high again
How many times can they fill me with lies and I listen, again Twisting the truth and they're playin' around with my head O.K. The things they will do and the things they will say When they don't really uunderstand Tears fill my eyes when I hear all the cries For the reason today
And they don't really know even what they're talkin' about And I can't imagine what empty heads can achieve
*Leave me alone don't want your promises no more 'Cause rock n' roll is my religion and my law Won't ever change, may think it's strange You can't kill rock n' roll it's here to stay
Lookin' through eyes of time mirrors reflecting their stories Untrue Promises, promises, telling me all of my glories overdue How many times have I heard it before And I'll probably hear it again King of a thousand knights, pawn in a table light Losing to you
And they din't really know even what they're talkin' about And I can't imagine what empty heads can achieve
*Repeat
Even the rhymes that they give me in times of confession Ain't true Outcome is obvious all for them none for us meaning you too
The things they will do and the things they will say When they don't really understand Fear of rejection I need their protection I'm making a stand
And they don't really know even what they're talkin' about And I can't imagine what empty heads can achieve
Watching the time go and feeling belief grow Rise above the obstacles People beseech me but they'll never teach me Things that I already know (I know)
Dreams that have shattered may not have mattered Take another point of view Doubts will arise though like chasing a rainbow I can tell a thing or two (That's true)
You've got to believe in yourself or no one Will believe in you Imagination like a bird on the wing Flying, free for you to use (O.K. baby)
I can't believe they stop and stare And point their fingers doubting me Their disbelief suppresses them But they're not blind it's just that they won't see
I'm a believer, I ain't no deceiver Mountains move before my eyes Destiny planned out I don't need no handout Speculation of the wise
*Wrythying and screaming the pain just won't go away He'll show you no mercy Your image in his hands it's useless to try Escaping his curses
The pins and needles pick the skin of little dolls
Tortured and flaming you give birth to hell Living a nightmare It's a pity you'll pray for your death But he's in no hurry
The pins and needles prick the skin of little dolls
**No where to run--your fate is in his hands Your time had come--you'll live to his command I'm warning you--the worst is yet to come The killer who--remains a mystery
I that believe in the stories of old--would never Fight it Demons and curses that play on your soul Like something ignited
You never imagined such a fate could follow you (You never thought it was true) And when it's your time I wonder how you'll do Your kind of troubles running deeper than the sea You broke the rules You've been a fool The little doll is you yeah
Now I find peace of mind Finally found a way of thinking Tried the rest found the best Stormy day won't see mesinking
*I can't conceal it like I know I did before I got to tell you now the ship is ready Waiting on the shore
Dare to look face the test on the eve When you set sailing What you've learned what you've earned Ship of joy will stop you failing
*Repeat
Wind is high so am I As the shore sinks in the distance Dreams unfold seek the gold Gold that's brighter than the sunlight Sail away see the day Dawning on a new horizon Gold's insight shining bright Brighter than the sun that's rising
3,000 sails on high are straining in the wind A raging sea below is this voyage coming to an end
Screaming at the window Watch me die another day Hopeless situation endless price I have to pay
Sanity now it's beyond me there's no choice
Diary of a madman Walk the line again today Entries of confusion Dear diary I'm here to stay
Manic depression befriends me Hear his voice Sanity now it's beyond me There's no choice
A sickened mind and spirit The mirror tells me lies Could I mistake myself for someone Who lives behind my eyes Will he escape my soul Or will he live in me Is he tryin' to get out or tryin' to enter me
Voices in the darkness Scream away my mental health Can I ask a question To help me save me from myself
Enemies fill up the pages Are they me Monday till Sunday in stages Set me free
So sick and tired of living And so afraid to die I've lived so many lives And still I wonder why The way the world perceives me Is not the way I am The one half thinks I'm crazy The other thinks I'm mad
I spent a long long time alone in my room I need your help to get me out of this gloom
Can you hear them All the voices in my head They freak me out Can you hear them They won't be happy 'till I'm dead They freak me out
Ten thousand million nightmares Temptation by the score I used to get so high And still I wanted more You think my time is wasted In search of who I am I tried to so hard to kill The boy inside the man
I spent a thousand years one night in my room I've lived so many lives and that is my doom
Can you hear them All the voices in my head They freak me out Can you hear them They won't be happy 'till I'm dead They freak me out
Can you hear them All the voices in my head They freak me out Can you hear them They won't be happy 'till I'm dead They freak me out
I never thought I'd smile again Always thought I'd be here on my own Sometimes when I'm down You come and save me again And again And again And again
I'll never understand it It makes no sense at all Just look at what I've done It's time to count the score
I've spent a long long time alone in my room I need your help to get me out of this gloom
Can you hear them All the voices in my head They freak me out Can you hear them They won't be happy 'till I'm dead They freak me out
Can you hear them All the voices in my head They freak me out Can you hear them They won't be happy 'till I'm dead They freak me out
