A lonely boy, lost on the wayside
Feeling like a squirrel on the roadside
Looking for a way out

Trying to find a message here
A golden path to steer him clear
He's stimulized for open eyes
Falling deeper

The deeper he gets, the farther he's straying
The things he hears aren't the things we're playing
Gazing through a smoke cloud

Some heads don't ever learn
A 'stone man' cannot be burned
But what price the sacrifice
With time so fleeting

The one thing to find
Not 'truth' just peace of mind
You'll know it
When you feel it coming on

The next step is the key
An open heart will set you free
Can you feel it
Now, step out, come on

The monkey's paw can't beat you
If you only let it go
The breath of life entreats you
Release you
The need's within you
Why not let it show
