At last I realize, I see the world through different eyes Now there's a feeling of joy in my heart You know there was a time when doubt and strife controlled my life Until I felt it would tear me apart I was so lonely, waiting, hoping for sight in the dark And it was only the light inside that provided the spark A sudden vision of the world around That pushed me to rhyme Another range of possiblilties Justified my time Here from my roof I see a scheme of things which pleases me No desperation, no fear and no doubt I use to kneel and pray I could some day break away But I don't need to I've found my way out I was so lonely, waiting, hoping for sight in the dark And it was only the light inside that provided the spark Am I a madman out of control Or the only one aware of his soul My hideaway, my place to stay My refuge lies in metromania My sanctuary, my satori My freedom lies in metromania Oh, yeah Am I a madman out of control Or the only one aware of his soul My hideaway, my place to stay My refuge lies in metromania My sanctuary, my satori My freedom lies in metromania Oh, yeah
