I want to hear deafness   I want to see blindness   I want to feel alive      yesterday I ran like the wind   and seemed to be ahead of everything   today I stopped for a while   in the midst of my own eternity   I need a question   to find the answer      I've always walked with you   for a second, walk with me   don't seek eternity      why am I damned to freedom,   when I'm better off enslaved?   I would laugh and I would smile   come on and chain me for a while      you should tear off my ears   you should stab out my eyes   you should lock me in a chamber   so I could feel alive      I've been swimming in this lake   now I am drowning   today the water froze to ice   although the sun was shining      now I can hear nothing   now I can see nothing   now I can feel everything
