Visions

the lunatic says goodbye to those who say they love him
he’s wise within himself though this craziness surrounds him
from his lips come truth within insanity
and people passing by don’t hear and cannot see
cursing the darkness
visions inside his head look like mine
oh just like mine
his words so true oh they’re used against him
oh his children smile because they know he loves them
cursing the darkness
look back on innocence in vain
look ahead it’s still the same old game
