(Guitar 1)
The way I feel is the Way I am I would start walking but I started
What kind of people do you..... Another joker who's a rock and roll
The faitthful image of......... The endless ocean of emotion I swam
The shot troopers lying down... I wish they'd put an end to my running war
You bought and sold me with.... The voices in the deck that you never heard
Your folly finally got you..... A poisoned father with his poisonous son
I beg you please don't let..... The anger I once had has turned to a curse
All of the promises that ...... You're gonna get what is coming to you

Are you metal, are you man? You've changed in life since you began
Ladies digging gold from you Will they still dig now you're through
Are you Satan, are you man? You've changed in life since it began
Vultures sucking gold from you Will they still suck now you're through

Cats Rats
The search is on so you just better run and find youself another way
Probably dead, they don't feel a thing keep them living for another day
Rat Brat
You're a nonentity, you have no destiny. You are a victim of a thing unknown
A mantel picture of a stolen soul, A fornication of your golden throne.

My life it started, some time ago
And where it will end, I don't know
I thought I was so good, I thought I was smart
I feel my world is gonna part.
I know, I know, I know, yeah, yeah, I know
Listen to me, while I sing this song
You just might think the words are wrong
Too many people, advising me
But they don't know what my eyes see
