Junkie Man

The common man doesn't suffer pain like this

only the soul that has never been kissed

let us adore our beautiful son

he's ridin' on the river of Babylon

bootin' up, shootin' up bring on the brightness

see the son of god is comin' up and I see a likeness

internalize the lunacy of the misery is showin'

when you're brought up you're caught up in a system that's goin'

no one answers no one takes that call from you

junkyman tell me what your story is...

water I desire

some parents house is on fire

slowly the house gonna burn to the ground

the neighborhood will watch without a sound

will someone be a witness please tell me that he's crazy

but he's not and they know that and they can't get him cause he's not crazy

beat lock him knock him take him away his authority

hit 'em, ship 'em, club 'em submitted conformity

my hand went blind

you were in the veins clairvoyant

my hand went blind

i make love to my trance sister my trance sister

went on and my trance parents see from the balcony

I looked out on the big field

it opens like the cover of an old bible

And out come the wolves

their paws trampling in the snow the alphabet

I stand on my head and watch it all go away

bootin' up, shootin' up bring on the brightness

see the son of god is comin' up and there is a likeness

internalize the lunacy the misery is showin' when

you're brought up and caught up in a system that is goin'
