Song lyrics

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 to 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 the 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 to see".

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 to see".
Can I play with madness...
