Mind Riot

I was slipping through the cracks of stolen jewel I was tightrope walking in two ton shoes And now somebody's talking of third world war (I've been caught in a mind riot) And the police said, "This is normal control" (I've been caught in a mind riot) Candle's burning yesterday Like somebody's best friend died I've been caught in a mind riot (Mind riot) I was crying from my eye, teeth and bleeding from my soul And I sharpened my wits on a dead man's skull I built an elevator from his bones (I've been caught in a mind riot) And I climb to the top floor to stamp out the coals (I've been caught in a mind riot) Candle's burning yesterday Like somebody's best friend died I've been caught in a mind riot I'm tied within Candle's burning yesterday Like somebody's best friend died I've been caught in a mind riot I'm tied within I'm luck's last match struck In the pouring down wind, pouring down wind Mind riot Mind riot Mind riot Mind riot
