Look in my eyes
I'll make you see
we're drifting aimlessly
Blind in a world
of make believe
Hear them sing
their songs off key
and nod like they agree
Buying the need
to be discreet
I've got no hand
in matters worldly
I hardly care at all
What's going on
fails to concern me
'cause I'm locked
behind my wall
but you know
what drives me out
Out of my mind oh
It's whatever
makes you see
makes you believe
and forget about
the premonition
you need to conceive
The images they sell
are illusion and dream
In other words dishonesty
If I speak ill
please humor me
Won't rant on endlessly
Just thought I'd try
to make you see
It doesn't solve a thing
to dress it
in a pretty gown
A stone will not need
you to guess if
you're still
going to drown
So you know
what drives me out
Out of my mind oh
It's whatever
makes you see
makes you believe
and forget about
the premonition
you need to conceive
The images they sell
are illusion and dream
In other words dishonesty
So can you name your demon
understand its scheming
I raise my glass
and say here's to you
Can you chase your demon
or will it take
your freedom
I raise my class
and say here's to you
I've got no hand
in matters worldly
I hardly care at all
What's going on
fails to concern me
'cause I'm locked
behind my wall
but you know
what drives me out
Out of my mind oh
It's whatever
makes you see
makes you believe
and forget about
the premonition
you need to conceive
that the images they sell
are illusion and dream
In other words dishonesty
So whatever
makes you see
makes you believe
and forget about
the premonition
you need to conceive
The images they sell
are illusion and dream
In other words dishonesty
With silence comes peace
With peace comes freedom
With freedom comes silence
