Intro      Saw a man in the street with his fist in the air   Treading along with a quiet limp and a mystery glare   This could be fair he insisted in a whisper and stared me down   As i passed him, asked him if they missed him and cared      Eyes suspicious, used to being attacked on   The smell of liquor in his breath, he had pride in his backbone   Said i'm just an old man with his life in a shopping cart   This dog is my family and i sleep in the park      But i wasn't always like this, never thought i'd fall this deep   All mystique is long gone, i'm in a hole and my call is weak   But the people just don't listen to a bum they all mistreat   And it's not easy to climb out when the wall is steep      Chorus      My mind is spoken   My mind is broken   My mind's been open for too long      Verse 1      There's a light inside still glowing in the kitchen   You walk down the stairs, turn life into fiction   That intersection could be the last turn   And the way you keep beating your heart on fast burn is      Fatal, unable to find the right label   For the sudden disappearance of familiar road maps   You got a video-phone-fax and everything you need   But can't hide the truth under a table      So you proceed to the street and find yourself alone   In the freezing cold, under your feet is   The crackling ice that makes time disappear   Let your eyelids fall, is blindness a fear?      Quiet as the sheer heavy weight that leaves a long shadow   When you're battling back to where you started   The cold hot on your heels appeals to the real sense   You got little that needs to be guarded      So keep that thought and your wheel in motion   All the mirrors are gone, you feel the motion of   The past getting closer, infinite on this tape    Minute by minute, give it my limit and escape...
