They found him walking on water
Another world in his eyes
He told them he was a prophet
The images only lies
His captors did not hesitate
They'd seen it all before he was crazy anyhow
Fistfuls of pills to medicate
He knew that before long they would burn it to the ground
If only he could see
What him he needs to be
Then maybe his minds eye
Wouldn't tell him lies
If only he could see
What him he needs to be
Then maybe his minds eye
Wouldn't tell him lies
Lost and strung out
Trying to find out
What made him blind
They tried to break him in spirit
But he could see through the lies
Only the truth could defeat him
Just what his captors despised
The others could not comprehend
What made him so bizarre
Such a standout from the crowd
That's when the visions showed a trend
He knew that before long he would stand on feral ground
