Living In The Past

Mama! Can you hear me ... call your name ...

Am I to blame?

The lights are low, The four winds blow ...

Now! Where do we go?

Tears in your eyes ... mine full of lies

My heart cries ... it's time to die!

I'm livin' in the past, so my doctors say

I should wake up from my dreams

But livin' ain't easy in this world today

When you're surrounded by "terror-screams"

Officially declared insane

A number is not a name. A case without cure

They smile at me sayin' one thing's for sure ...

You've got to stop livin' in the past

Sharks in my bed, demons in my head

Bloody frames hang on the wall

Fires burning higher I hear the hangman's call

Voices from behind echo in my mind

Like an eye-sight to the blind

I'm trapped I am surrounded

Afraid I'm falling 'way behind

They're hunting me

Ooh, possessing me

Controlling me ... tellin' me ...

You are what you are, don't reach out for the stars

Calm down, turn around, with your face against the bars

Strangers in my bed music in my head

My candle's burning low

If only I could hide in my mother's womb

'Cause I don't know where to go

Officially declared insane

A number is not a name

A case without a cure

They smile at me sayin' one thing's sure ...

You've got to stop livin' - livin' in the past
