I know it's hard to find the words so often standin' face-to-face
Sometimes it takes a thin white sheet to put things into place
Things that I could never say
Come flooding out somehow upon these lies?
I'm still fighting the same battles
I've been fighting all these years
Dream is not a dream unless you're livin' with a fear
What they say will be forgotten
All that's done will be for naught
And why?
And it's been a long time, Lord, since I sat down and had a cry
It's sometimes overwhelming and I can't tell you why
But I remember Jackson singing
Doctor, doctor, please, my eyes
My heroes, they're all dying or they're sitting in a cell
Due to years of medicating
Minds that hurt so well
There's a thin line, don't you see,
Between genius and insanity
Which am I?
One thing that scares the hell in me is living with mortality
And worryin' that I'm insane talkin' to a God unseen
Must surely make me crazy, so crazy's what I'll be
'Til I'm gone
'Til I'm gone
And I'll scream out to the sun and to the moon and to the stars
I'll scream until my voice finds you
No matter where you are
I'll scream until I've got no breath
And all that's left to take is death
And I'm done
When I'm done
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh
