[Verse 1]
See the man of hungry mind
Never had a dream to call his own
His sin in form of thought
He lived to milk the minds of the blind
To rule the sea of imagination

[Chorus]
And the sanity assassin
Is coming down to steal your mind
So, he takes an innocent's vision
The blind lead the blind, they say
Meet the sanity assassin
A trick of mind or the devil's whim
On the way to tomorrow's dream
He's fading away

[Verse 2]
See the man with the empty soul
Never had a face or will of his own
So, he took another's pride
And he made a mask of faults
Defensive anger and false emotion

[Chorus]
And the sanity assassin
Is coming down in a stream of black
So, he takes what he cannot live
The black leads the blind astray
Meet the sanity assassin
A trick of mind or the devil's whim
On the way to tomorrow's dream
He's fading away
[Bridge 1]
Sing your sweet poison, stealer of dreams
Bleed your sweet anguish
And the form of dreams are born
(Eyes, eyes, open your eyes)
Don't be afraid to dream outside the lines
(Eyes, eyes, open your eyes)
Don't be afraid of painting pictures
Within your mind
(Eyes, eyes, open your eyes)
Don't be afraid, your path is not of sorrow
(Eyes, eyes, open your eyes)
Don't be afraid, dreams are immortal

[Bridge 2]
Rise in the coming tide
Wave after wave of sleep crushing down
Hopes of the weakened and knowing
Awash in the undertow, falling away
Awash

[Verse 3]
Listen as the tale begins to now unweave
The will of strong mind he'll never deceive
I speak the words to lay me down
I am ever strong
Against the all-knowing thief
Of imagination
[Chorus]
And the sanity assassin
Is coming down to steal your mind
So, he takes an innocent's vision
The blind lead the blind, they say
Meet the sanity assassin
A trick of mind or the devil's whim
On the way to tomorrow's dream
He's fading away

[Outro]
Don't be afraid to dream
Don't be afraid to dream
(Eyes, eyes, open your eyes)
Don't be afraid to dream outside the lines
(Eyes, eyes, open your eyes)
Don't be afraid of painting pictures
Within your mind
(Eyes, eyes, open your eyes)
Don't be afraid, your path is not of sorrow
(Eyes, eyes, open your eyes)
Don't be afraid
Dreams are immortal
(Eyes, eyes, open your eyes)
Dreams are immortal
(Eyes, eyes, open your eyes)
Dreams are immortal
Dreams are immortal
