Said she was an angel
She was mending broken wings
Told me she could teach me how to fly
There's no easy answer
And illusions they die hard
I watch her chase the dragon every night

Screeching in my head
It's burning in my bed

I'm looking within
I'm looking without
I'm searching for signs of life
The answers are there
Does anybody care?
Would you talk to me, Old Man Wise?

Said he was a savior
And his mission was to heal
It brought him joy to take away their pain
By the thousands they would swarm
Like moths around the light
Blinded by his image and his name

Screeching in my head
It's burning in my bed
The truth's in side of you
Is it alive or dead?
I'm looking within
I'm looking without
I'm searching for signs of life
The answers are there
Does anybody care?
Would you talk to me, Old Man Wise?

I'm looking within
I'm looking without
I'm searching for signs of life
Now the answers are there
Does anybody care?
Would you talk to me, Old Man Wise?

I'm looking within
I'm looking without
I'm searching for signs of life
Now the answers are clear
Does anybody hear?
To talk to me, Old Man Wise?
