We leave our lives behind a curtain It's hard to keep the demons back Sometimes we need to ride the mindway And trash our idle thoughts along the tracks Stray days Stray nights Daydreaming straight from the past Noise falls We crawl back to sleep Change ourselves back into monsters So wise have no doubts no sorrows no fears I've measured rhythm to the heedless ears Voices are calling for the fools now I'm the desperate, a slave just as you We leave our lives behind a curtain It's hard to keep the demons back We understand the black sky and its dying A schizophrenic child is ending time
