I need a new direction

Another thought to serve me right

My mind has got an infection

And there's nothing that seems to help

I need to grow an island somewhere inside my head

Where nothing can disturb me,

Where I am free, where I'm forever set



Maybe it's not important

If we are dead or alive.

I never ever wanna listen to the sirens

I'm alive, still alive.



Who says: "We are not guilty"

I say: "We never know the way it goes"



Changes - all around me, all inside my head

Changes - changing face, still remaining mad.

Changes - an all day routine.



Hard to enjoy the good times,

Decay is what I feel

God, it's makin' me porous, vanish in haze,

I wonder, wonder if I'm real.



Newflash - under the new regulations

Non-conformity will be punished by law.

Relax - and don't forget to unplug your TV set!

Sigh no more!



For you, you are not guilty,

No, no, you're not responsible at all.



Changes - all around me, all inside my head

Changes - changing face, still remaining mad.

Changes - an all day routine.

Changes - all around me, all inside my head

Changes - changing face, still remaining mad.

Changes - changing systems, still insane.

Changes - but the madness will remain.



Who is the man who says I'm never gonna die?

It's a lie, it's a lie!

And who is the man who says, I never have to sigh?

It's a lie, it's a lie!



Oppression, resistance

We will never change our way,

The island in my mind is growin'

More and more, day after day.



Changes - all around me now, all inside me now

Changes - wanna cry no more, sigh no more.
