Lyrics
Well I've walked these streets

virtual stage

seemed to me

Makeup on their faces

actors took their places

next to me

I've walked these streets

in a carnival

sights to see

All the cheap thrill seekers

vendors and the dealers

they crowded around me

Have I been blind

have I been lost

Inside myself and

my own mind

Hypnotized mesmerized

by what my eyes have seen

I've walked these streets

in a tacle

of wealth and poverty

In the diamond market

the scarlet welcome carpet

that they just rolled out for me

I've walked these streets

in the madhouse asylum

they can be

Well while that misfit prophet

traisland stopped

Any way

of saving me

Have I been blind

have I been lost

Inside myself and

my own mind

Hytized mesmerized

by what my eyes have seen

Have I been wrong

have I been wise

to shut my eyes and play along

Hypnotized paralyzed

by what my eyes have found

By what my eyes have seen

what they have seen

Have I been blind

have I been lost

Have I been wrong

have I been wise

have I been strong

Have I been hypnotized

mesmerized

by what my eyes have found

In that big street carnival

Have I been blind

have I been lost

Have I been wrong

have I been wise

have I been strong

Have I been

hypnotized mesmerized

by what my eyes have found

In that big street carnival

In that carnival
