- john petrucci

I ve got my hands out in front of my face
But i can hardly see
I ve bathed myself in holy water
But it doesn t bother me

Under my skin, upon my head
Inside the walls, beneath my bed
My black and whites are turning red

Cover my eyes and tell me
Am i really blind
Cover my eyes and tell me
Have i lost my mind

I ve got my fingers to the blade
But i can t feel a thing
Open my eyes in salty water
But it doesn t even sting

Under my skin, upon my head
Stuck in my throat, beneath my breath
My black and whites are turning red

Cover my eyes and tell me
Am i really blind
Cover my eyes and tell me
Have i lost my mind
Have i lost my mind
Have i lost my mind

Under my skin, upon my head
The lunatic is playing dead
My black and whites are turning red

Cover my eyes and tell me
Am i really blind
Cover my eyes and tell me
Have i lost my mind

Cover my eyes and tell me
Am i really blind
Cover my eyes and tell me
Have i lost my
Have i lost my mind
Have i lost my mind
Have i lost my mind
