The Sanity Assassin

歌詞

See the man of hungry mind Never had a dream to call his own His sin in form of thought He lived to milk the minds of the blind To rule the sea of imagination And the sanity assassin Is coming down to steal your mind So he takes an innocent's vision The blind lead the blind, they say Meet the sanity assassin A trick of mind or the devil's whim On the way to tomorrow's dream He's fading away See the man with the empty soul Never had a face or will of his own So he took another's pride And he made a mask of faults Defensive anger and false emotion And the sanity assassin Is coming down in a stream of black So he takes what he cannot live The black leads the blind astray Meet the sanity assassin A trick of mind or the devil's whim On the way to tomorrow's dream He's fading away Sing your sweet poison, stealer of dreams Bleed your sweet anguish and the form of dreams are born Don't be afraid to dream outside the lines Don't be afraid of painting pictures within your mind Don't be afraid, your path is not of sorrow Don't be afraid, dreams are immortal Rise in the coming tide Wave after wave of sleep crushing down Hopes of the weakened and knowing Awash in the undertow, falling away Listen as the tale begins to now unweave The will of strong mind he'll never deceive I speak the words to lay me down, I am ever strong Against the all-knowing thief of imagination Dreams are immortal
