Sanity falls by the knife 

That lacerates the brain 

Listen to the pain 

touch the empty space within our hearts 

And see the dream is our reality 



Stand upon the edge, fall into the water 

Drift upon the sea, pray for all the others 

Suffering to see 



The Ludicrous Smiles on our faces 

Show nothing remains 

In fortress surrounding the dream 

The Ludicrous Smiles in our eyes 

See the fall of the rain 

And the coming of what is to be 

The lunatic hides in the night 

From the man of the sane 

In a world that imprisons the free 

Terrified of what he sees 

The Ludicrous Smiles, The Ludicrous Smiles 

Smiles over me 



Shadows may follow the man 

One thing is leading the others 

Follow the veil in my hand 

Nothing deceiving my brothers 

Look into my eyes, walk into my vision 

Drift upon the streams, enter vast dominions 

Welcome to my dream 



The Ludicrous Smiles on our faces 

Show nothing remains 

In fortress surrounding the dream 

The Ludicrous Smiles in our eyes 

See the fall of the rain 

And the coming of what is to be 

The lunatic hides in the night 

From the man of the sane 

In a world that imprisons the free 

The lunatic smiles over me 

Terrified of what he sees 

The ludicrous mind
