Carnival

` ` ============ ============ ` ` ==INTRO== ` ` ==VERSE== Well I've walked these streets a virtual stage it seemed to me. Make-up on their faces, actors took their place next to me. Well I've walked these streets in a Carnival of sites to see. All the cheap thrill seekers; the vendors and the dealers they crowded around me ` ` Have I been blind Have I been lost inside myself and my own mind Hypnotized, Mesmerized By what my eyes have seen ` ` ==VERSE== I've walked these streets in a spectacle of wealth and poverty In the diamond market the scarlet welcome carpet that they've just rolled out for me. And I've walked these streets in the madhouse asylum they can be where a wild eyed misfit profit on a traffic island stopped and he raved of saving me. ` ` ==Chorus== Have I been blind Have I been lost inside myself and my own mind Hypnotized, Mesmerized By what my eyes have seen Have I been wrong Have I been wise to shut my eyes and play along Hypnotized, Paralyzed By what my eyes have found, By what my eyes have seen What they've seen ` ` ==Instrumental== Em (x2) ` ` ==Chorus 2/OUTRO== Have I been blind, have I been lost Have I been wrong, have I been wise, have I been strong Have I been? ` ` Hypnotized, Mesmerized By what my eyes have found In that great street carnival ` ` Have I been blind, have I been lost Have I been wrong, have I been wise, have I been strong Have I been? ` ` Hypnotized, Mesmerized By what my eyes have found In that great street carnival In that Carnival
