Pain (Band)
Island Of Fear
[Verse 1]
A man once told us that no man is an island
But I know a man that thinks he's an island
[Pre-Chorus]
Drifting out to the sea, sand in his ears and lies on his tongue
Jungle grows in your mind when you're an island
[Chorus]
Welcome to the island of fear, the island of fear
Deep down inside he wants out of here, he wants out of here
Welcome to the island of fear, the island of fear
The island of fear, he drank too much beer, went home with a queer
[Verse 2]
Filthy hungry cannibals ringed around his soul
He's tied with the hair of shrunken heads to a bamboo pole
[Pre-Chorus]
He could drive them away with a flick of his wrist or an ounce of self-denial
Or a good deed done without asking for it back
[Chorus]
Welcome to the island of fear, the island of fear
Deep down inside he wants out of here, he wants out of here
Welcome to the island of fear, the island of fear
The island of fear, he drank too much beer, went home with a queer
[Bridge]
(Chanting)
No one visits desert islands
No one likes to waste their time
Raising temples, building bridges
If the island's just a sinking ship
