It's better to NOT be sane :)

I am the sane among the crazy men
I hear the screams I see the tears
I watch them fight back their fears
I am the sane

I am the mind among the fools
I watch them all destroy their lives
by drinking the liquors that I despise
I am the mind

I am the thought among the tears
as they pray to gods for hope and love
but stab his back, betrayal from above
I am the thought

I am the tears despite my thought
as my world of fools begins to close
and make my walls the pedals of rose
I am the tears

I am the fool despite my mind
to be so trapped in the place that takes
my heart, my soul and my mind it shakes
I am the fool

I am the crazy man despite I'm sane
as their shrills and screams begin to bore
a hole in my head, my mind become their whore
I am the crazy man
"When a man lies,He murders some part of the world
These are the pale deaths which men miscall their lives,All this I cannot bear to witness any longer,
Cannot the kingdom of salvation,Take me home!"

    just because i'm not a saint
    doesn't mean i'll burn in hell.
    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say
  • just because i'm not a saint
    doesn't mean i'll burn in hell.

    "where do bad folks go when they die? they don't go to heaven where the angels fly, they go to a lake of fire & fry, seem them again on the 4th of July"
