Lyrics

Well I walk these streets
A virtual stage
Seemed to me
Makeup on their faces
Actors took their places
Next to me
Well I walk these streets
In a carnival
Sights to see
All the cheap thrill seekers
Vendors and their 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
Well I walk these streets
In a spectacle
Of wealth and poverty
In the diamond market
Scarlet welcome carpet
That they just rolled out for me
And I walk these streets
In the madhouse
Asylum they can be
While the misfit prophet
Traffic island stop
Any way of saving me
Have I been blind?
Have I been lost
Inside myself and my own mind?
Hypnotized, 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
