letra de in my mind's eye - the shining angels
[verse one; walker]
in the eyes of the public
i’m a man of design
but the passion that built me
is the frost on my spine
my father saw darkness
before i saw light
[verse two; walker]
and a mother so hollow
she bled me of right
i claimed i was serving
a god i could save
but i just wanted flowers
to cover my grave
[chorus; walker]
comprehension! every reason
now out of my reach
the walls in my skull
are beginning to breach!
you’d look at the suit
and you’d never surmise
that a madman is wearing
this clever disguise!
i’ll never admit to
the rot that i know
i won’t let the speed of
my “service” go slow!
but here in the dark
of my mind’s eye, i see:
that death and despair
are my only decree!
[verse three; walker]
i’ve been scouring the archives
of every mistake
to find that the path
was a trail of my wake
what they gave to me
i’ve returned to the world:
a banner of hatred
completely unfurled
i used to believe
in a thread and a seam
now i’m just the ghost
of a dead man’s dream
[chorus; walker]
comprehension! every reason
now out of my reach
the walls in my skull
are beginning to breach!
you’d look at the suit
and you’d never surmise
that a madman is wearing
this clever disguise!
i’ll never admit to
the rot that i know
i won’t let the speed of
my “service” go slow!
but here in the dark
of my mind’s eye, i see:
that death and despair
are my only decree!
[bridge one]
you insist on the lie
that you don’t belong here
but the h-ll that you’re in
is the one you held dear!
we gave you the needle
we gave you the thread
now look at the monster
you’ve stitched in your head!
we watched you unravel
we watched you turn mean
now you’re just a failure…
it makes us want to scream!
[bridge two; walker]
broken on the inside
and shattered on the out
a hurricane of silence
a thunder-storm of doubt!
but i’ll find a way
to make the ghost fly past
i’ll build a new life
before this one is my last!
[chorus; walker]
comprehension! every reason
now out of my reach
the walls in my skull
are beginning to breach!
you’d look at the suit
and you’d never surmise
that a madman is wearing
this clever disguise!
i’ll never admit to
the rot that i know
i won’t let the speed of
my “service” go slow!
but here in the dark
of my mind’s eye, i see:
that death and despair
are my only decree!
[outro; walker; spoken]
i beg of you… whoever’s listening. give me new life. give me a new purpose
take this life… please. relieve me of this tortured service
