Amazing Journey

[NARRATOR]

Now he is deaf.

Now he is dumb.

Now he is blind.

The guilty are safe,

But always accused by his empty eyes.

Nothing to say,

Nothing to hear,

And nothing to see.

Each sensation makes a note in his symphony.

Sickness will surely take the mind

Where minds can't usually go.

Come on the amazing journey,

And learn all you should know.

A vague haze of delirium creeps up on him.

Soaring and flying images spin.

He is your leader, he is your guide.

On the amazing journey,

Together you'll ride.

Sickness will surely take the mind

Where minds can't usually go.

Come on the amazing journey,

And learn all you should know.

His eyes are the eyes that transmit all he knows,

The truth burns so bright it can melt winter snows.

A towering shadow, so black and so high,

A white sun burning the earth and the sky.
