Cold neurotic hands tremble and shake As they reach down to take up the snake The snake spoke through a hiss and a whine Saying the time is now, now is the time Be like God who sits on high, Make Him in your likeness, imprison Him in the sky Chain Him tight to His glowing throne And he’ll beg for you to love Him like a dog craves a bone This is yours now to rule and reign Everything you touch shall bear your name Yes, you are man deceived by pride and greed And in the end you shall bow your knee Mental disorder, mentally deranged A trick of the devil, a tool of his game Guilt trip confession, religious refrain The answers seem hidden beneath a world of shame Try to get your sleep while living Rest when you are awake Resist the devil in your life when he comes to complicate Keep our eyes open regardless of the cost Prop them open until they burn Pluck them out when they are deceitful When they lie to your head And on judgment day you’ll rise from the dead The life I live is the will of God The world I live in is from my own imagination The steps I take are foreordained The road I’ve traveled is paved with colors I cannot name The songs in my head I could never sing The music that I hear, the notes do not exist Those that travel with me, have come so close To touching the heart of eternal bliss Holy Water New Wine Jesus forgives them all - forevermore
