Metal Church - Of Unsound Mind lyrics

rate me

[J. Marshall]

A man exists alone

Hidden by a shell

Touched in such a wicked way

No one could ever tell

Is what he sees for real?

Or only in his mind?

The staring of the old man's eyes

Chills him deep inside

It is the eye

That will destroy him

Stuck in the mind

It is the eye

That will destroy me

Stuck in my mind

He plots the aweful deed

He know it must be done

Precision of a madman's mind

His goal is only one

Is what he sees for real?

The evil eye, the sun

His pain and fear must lay to rest

Piece by piece it's done

It is the eye

That will destroy him

Stuck in the mind

It is the eye

That will destroy me

Stuck in my mind

...

Twisting and tortured scars on my brain

No one can touch me in here

Trapped, fighting, driven to kill

Forced to live with my fear

When will it end? What can I do?

Who will believe? Why is this fear haunting me?

The end is the cure, the only way out

To numb the source of my pain

Death to life is insanity

the anger is growing again

When will it end? What can I do?

Who will believe? Why is this fear haunting me?

...

How can he stand to bear the pounding of his heart?

Something really must be done before he's torn apart

Is what he hears for real, the heartbeat in his head

I hear the pounding of his heart, but I know the man is dead

It is the eye

That will destroy him

Stuck in the mind

It is the eye

That will destroy me

Stuck in my mind
