Can I play with madness

Give me the sense to wonder, to wonder if I'm free

Give me a sense of wonder, to know I can be me

Give me the strength to hold my head up, spit back in their face

Don't need no key to unlock this door, gonna break down the walls

Break out of this bad place

Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball

Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all

Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me

Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind too see

I screamed aloud to the old man, I said don't lie don't say you don't know

I say you'll pay for your mischief in this world or the next

Oh and then he fixed me with a freezing glance, and the hell fires raged in his eyes

He said do you want to know the truth son - I'll tell you the truth

Your soul's gonna burn in a lake of fire

Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball

Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all

Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me

Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind too see

Oh listen to me, said the prophet

(Solo: Adrian Smith)

Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball

Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all

Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me

Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind too see

Can I play with madness
