Here I Stand Before Me Lyrics

My doctor told me that if was time for me to have my X-rays
Of course, I had many nightmares about that fatal day
The room was dark and my skeleton was floating on the wall
My voice trembles down inside me, I'm trapped way down in my body

I-I-I, oh here I stand before me
But something's out of place here
My mind's eye is missing from my body
Well I know it's there but I can't see where

Well take my fingers, what do fingers really mean to me?
You can easily look them up in the dictionary
They call them digits, or technically they're known as the philanges
My joints connected up inside me, way down deep inside my body

I-I-I, oh here I stand before me
But something's out of place here
My mind's eye is missing from my body
Well I know it's there but I can't see where

My boned shine brightly, a map of my whole body
My vital organs just churn away inside me
Some day they're going to stop this motion
And I'll be left with

My my, the future lay before me
Hey hey, deep inside my body

I-I-I, oh here I stand before me
But something's out of place here
My mind's eye is missing from my body
Well I know it's there but I can't see where
I can stare and stare but can't see where
